Robinson died Saturday at 53, remembered as much for his personality as his skills by the teams he played for during an 18-year career. Robinson helped the Blazers reach the NBA Finals in 1990 and 1992. He not only never missed the post-season in Portland but hardly missed any games at all, playing all 82 in each of his first five seasons and never appearing in fewer than 75.“RIP Clifford Robinson - some of my earliest memories of NBA basketball were of you as the lifeblood to those early/mid 90′s Blazers teams. The Memorial Coliseum days!! RIP to a Portland legend,” tweeted Cleveland star Kevin Love, who grew up in Oregon.
