    Jim traveled with the team. This isn't @THE HCP we're talking about, all the players knew and liked him.

    That he recognized a 30-year-old picture of him *and* needed to quote retweet makes him a nerd (and I mean this affectionately). I didn't know this guy and I can rattle off stats from 1989-90 like I was keeping score myself. It's obscure Blazers trivia that this guy was in this picture.

    Come on give me this one, I was run out of the marketplace of ideas earlier today.

    I mean, didn't Dame have a relationship with him? He's just putting respect on his name lol

    Lillard has joined past Blazer legends Porter, Kersey, Duckworth, and Lucas who have embraced RipCity, Portland, and Oregon.

    That's exactly what I thought. Like who has the source that says that Jaquez was offered... during the period of time that he couldn't be offered because the Heat signed him as soon as possible.

    Griffey's leather USA jacket is incredible. I don't know how anyone can look at this photo, and say anything other then "check out Ken's straight pimpin' coat".

    The emotional return of Dame for the first time to PDX is a few days away!

    Hope the man gets the loudest standing ovation from PDX!

    Was a HUGE KGjr fan. I have a book full of almost all of his BB cards until he was sent to Cinci and multiples of most of his rookie cards, including the coveted 89' Upper Deck Card.

    I dunno if it's all Dame's fault. Giannis makes some questionable moves out there for sure and give Doc at least 10 games to get up to speed. sheesh

    I'm more astonished Lopez literally freezes Lillard out at times? He does make a decent amount of threes but he could get Dame some absolutely wide open looks that he just doesn't seem to want to work to do?
