The Portland Trail Blazers are pulling out all the stops.

In an effort to get both members of their high-scoring backcourt - Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum - into next month's All-Star Game through the fan vote, the team released a video featuring flaming bagpipes, a unicycle, Darth Vader, and a recreation of the famous dance scene from the 2004 comedy "Napoleon Dynamite."

In true Portland style, it's a doozy:

Meyers Leonard also makes an Oscar-worthy turn in a supporting role. Who among us will ever forget their first time hearing that classic line, "he's dancing - and it's pretty fantastic."

Keep on keeping it weird, Portland.
