I think people are overreacting to the last couple days

You're trippin. Ed played 17 minutes a game and averaged 8 boards per in the playoffs. He barely played.

 

No. You're saying people hate the organization.

That's wrong.

I'm hating the person RUNNING the organization.

You need to understand the difference.

Compartmentalize bruh.

 

I watched every game...and if it wasn't Ed it was Chief or ET.....our defenders were left to shoot all series and our shooters were smothered...win and lose as a team...Ed lost just like the team did. Since that playoff series folks seem to be feeding depressive predictions left and right...that's what's trippin'

 

people do hate the organization.....Paul and Olshey are the head office of the organization....show me where the love is...you're angry...venting...like many here...you need to understand the difference between moving on and seeing gloom in the offseason in my view....I understand why I like the team...to have to defend that around here is pretty weird if you ask me

 

I have a theory, and no one is going to like it, and the Neil Haters may go off, but here it is:

1) We have not had a press conference introducing Trent
2) We have signed Simons, but not Trent
3) We have 16 players
4) If we need to cut one, it will be someone who has not been signed.
5) We used 2 future draft picks to get Trent.

Hmmm.

 

We're not going to trade two picks for Trent then cut him...

 

Get rid of the self-righteousness... continuing to twist the words of others while falsely attributing anger to them. You do that way to much.

 

Not sure how to make this point more clear:

Butters is still on this team....

For 2... more... years... 2...

10 then 11 million respectfully...

He's wasted space...

The most functional player on our bench and all of our toughness is gone for a paltry 4.4 Mil...

By design... Like.. This was a calculated decision...

So now that I recognize this and wanna throw a pie in the face of the muthafucka that did it...

One hates the franchise now?

The franchise that same one has rooted for for over 40 years?

Bruh...

 

I hate the Lakers.....love the Blazers....live with the process and find a way to enjoy it until I don't....I say if folks give up on the Blazers...there are choices..people freaked out about the Moda Center name for god's sake......people booed Meyers at a home game just for entering the game...that's hate.

 

He does the same shit to you. Just because we are passionate. If we were always positive and praising lord Vulcan Allen and olshey then he wouldn’t say a word. It’s the hippie way man!

 

I'm hardly self righteous....but you seem to think you have an exclusive take on the abilities of young players on our roster....that's self righteous...I enjoy the team my way...you enjoy it your way....twist that into an insult

 

"I'm not self-righteous, you're self-righteous!"

Nice one.

 

well there's a fix for all this.....use it

 

I would say bones definitely knows what he is talking about when it comes to this game of basketball. I think his take on simons and Trent are pretty spot on. You tell others to not hate yet you give the passionate fans shit for expressing opinions even if it is in the heat of the moment.

 

bye bones...….you can reply with all those who agree with you just like
Dave at SB nation....it's your dream....too bad...I'm in zero tolerance mode for this shit

 

you can fucking hate all you want....I don't tell people what to do...done

 

For what it's worth....I agree with the thread title..

 

If you're fighting with riverman, you're wrong. He's a grown up Blazers fan. And he really loves his Blazers. He's what, in his 60s? Show some respect. Wow.

 

Thanks.
