    Nice guy, but not a starter caliber center. I approve of this move. Tank.

    He was my favorite Blazer this season. He brought it every night and that's something I will always respect and appreciate.

    Best of luck to you Mase, in all that you do. I hope you get the huge contract you deserve this summer. If Timofey Mosgov is worth $16 million a year, you're worth at least $20 million. Enjoy your future success and your upcoming financial windfall. Unlike many who get it, you've earned it.

    I will miss your energy, your effort and your intelligence, on and off the court.

    I'm going to miss Mason. He has his flaws as a player, but I always appreciated how much he worked his ass off every game. Even with his flaws, we are going to miss the many other things he does well. I think he was one of our leaders, and that's going to be hard to replace on a team that has struggled nightly with being mentally engaged. Good luck with your next contract, Mason. I hope you get paid what you deserve and find success.

    Oh and Mason was my wife's favorite player. She's devastated.

    You also said he wasn't starting caliber and you approved of the trade. Even if you feel that way, those comments do not, by definition (see above) belong in an appreciation thread. There are plenty of other threads for expressing those sentiments (like the Nurkic is a Bazer!! thread). To express those opinions in this thread is inappropriate, disrespectful and downright rude.

    If this is your idea of appreciation, I suspect you aren't asked to deliver many eulogies.

    "I didn't hate him but, realistically, the world isn't any dimmer for his loss because that's not how the sun works. Where's the open bar? I heard there was one?"

    Class act all the way! Mason never lacked a motor...I wish him well but glad we don't have to pay him offseason....Nurkic is a beast! Best of luck to Mason in Denver....he's got a great teammate there in Will

    One thing is for sure - he's going to get a standing ovation on March 28th.

    No cupcake signs? No downpour of boos? Portland is so passive.

    We'll break a few windows, spray paint a bank or two for him.

    He has been our third best player for a while now, and certainly in the playoffs against the Clippers.
