Laker fan wants to know where to watch game on tv in Portland



Born and raised in Portland I am currently live near LA and am a LA Laker fan but root for the Blazers as a second choice. My brother lives in Portland and is a fervent Blazer fan. In 2015 I hope to come and see my brother and take in a Lakers/Blazers game at a local venue such as a bar/restaurant/cc venue. We're both old we will not be able to afford game tickets and I don't think we would even want the hassle of going to the game at our age. But I thought it might be fun to watch the game on TV in a venue that would obviously have a bunch of enthusiastic Blazer fans. My brother would certainly enjoy it (and I can take a punch).

My question is this: Which establishment could we walk in and still have a decent seat to see the game on TV and still have my brother in his element with other enthusiastic Portland fans? The establishment needs to be on the east side (something reasonably close to 82nd avenue would be best for us.) If I could just get a couple of names as suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Much thanks,

Richard D.
