    I heard it different also. I thought he said probably Philly but there is a better chance than most think he would consider the Blazers?
    Still that chance seems extremely remote.

    I didn't hear it, but I predicted Philly last offseason. They have talent and cap space. Now, they have shown that their talent isn't just "potential."

    Really, any time someone talks about an LBJ landing zone, they should talk about cap space - we don't have it.

    Holy SHIT.... That would be EPIC

    As much as their economy revolves around him you think they'd let us?

    That shit would get vandalized. It wouldn't be a good move anyway. Basically trying to poach a player by putting up propaganda in his hometown? Seems a little scummy and would probably not be taken well by anyone but Blazers fans.

    lol, yeah I was watching the game and thought what the fuck? I thought maybe one of my dogs accidentally hit the remote. Great outcome though in the end. It's amazing to think that the Spurs might miss the playoffs this year.

    Why should we care what Cleveland fans or anyone else thinks? I certainly don't. It was just a hypothetical anyway and not really meant to be taken that seriously.

    It's not about what Cleveland fans think it's about what LeBron thinks. Wasn't that the point? The person who started the go fund me page sounded like it was a definite option if enough money was raised. I wouldn't call that hypothetical.

    Could be free pass for Philly to the ECF if they get the 3 seed. Pacers in the first round and Raptors in the second won't be the easiest path for the Cavs.

    I hate his soft mind. I hate his SOFT play. I hate his SENSITIVE demeanor. I hate his TURNCOAT, me first attitude. I hate that he won't play center in a league that he SHOULD play center in...
    I hate that his main go to move is a fucking fade away... I hate that he QUIT on us after Wes got hurt. I hate that he even CONSIDERED PHX... Fuckin' Bitch!
    I hate that I can't really wear jerseys anymore since my only one is a #12 and now I'm too old to wear them...

    Hell, I even hate that his NAME is LaMarcus too! I hate that he helps make me have to tell people my fucking name isn't "DaMonte..."

    IT'S DAMANY... Name your child MARCUS you weird black folk!! At least my name is African! Jesus. LaMichael, LaGarrett, La fucking Marcus...

    I'm gonna butt floss with his jersey when I get home today...

    Yup. I hate Lamarcus. I've never disguised my hate. I've been upfront about it from the time lied to us. Fuck Him. Fan is short for FANatic. :smiley-hvala:

    I'm totally on board with starting a go fund me for the GOOD version of the sign. At least it would show that Portland Fans aren't fucking delusional. Hell it could even say:

    Bron a 3rd option? He's the best player on the planet....
    Come to Portland and get another 'ship.

    Bottom line, I don't like to be in the same boat as the fan who thinks the 3rd option sign was a good thing.
