    Is it Kahn’s fault as well that Brandon Roy seems to hate the city and organization?

    At the first game, junior. I don’t need to explain my love for this team to anyone

    I’ll never get the love and support for a player who played less games for us than Meyers Fucking Leonard and seems to hate the city and organization.

    Who's the guy at 1:50? Gotta be a poster here, no? When I was a season ticket holder, I saw him all the time at games, so I know he was as well. Guy that dropped to his knees.

    What does two men allegedly speaking have anything to do with anything? This place has collectively lost it.

    Furthermore, I’m an in quotations fan because I think BRoy was a super douche? Half the forum wants to trade the best player the franchise has (arguably) ever had, but I’m not sure they/you deserve a lower tier of fandom because of it.

    Will this happen again if the Blazers get the #1 pick?
    I kinda think it should. It would be hard not to have a big welcome for Wembanyama.

    Why would someone who "seems to hate the city and organization" represent said organization at the Draft Lottery?

    Angst because of the players someone chooses to like.
    Angst because of the players someone chooses to dislike.
    Angst because of a former player repping the team at the lottery.

    To quote Jack.....

    What did BRoy do? I have no idea why anyone feels that way.

    Now we can start rumors of the team moving back to Portland.

    Mediocre Man is upset after the Blazers cut Roy, a year later Roy was feeling better and signed for the full MLE with the TWolves. He only played a few games before needing to retire for good. But Paul Allens insurance stopped subsidizing some of Roy's old Blazers contract.

    It never impacted the Blazers cap as the Blazers had amnesty relief for the remainder of Roy's deal from cutting him.

    Sacramento isn’t in the lottery.

    I loved the so-called “Jail Blazers” Era. Those teams were thrilling. Coming back from 0-3 vs Dallas to force Game 7!

    Okay I am familiar with all that, what confused me was him saying BRoy hates the blazers and the city of Portland. I thought he had done something that had justified that kind of hatred, such as talking crap about the team or city.
