Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? 90 NBA Finals Who is your current favorite player? Rudy Who is your All Time favorite player? Clyde What was your favorite moment? I was at the game in the previous post...crazy exciting 90 seconds...lost my voice screaming.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since 1999 season Who is your current favorite player? BRoy Who is your All Time favorite player? Scottie Pippen What was your favorite moment? Miracle Minute vs Dallas in 2002. I remember listening to that game on the radio till this day
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since the early 90s, I believe. Drexler was still there. I can't pinpoint the date, but I remember one of my Uncles gave me a Blazers bumper sticker that I put in my room when I was young. I remember thinking Portland was a fantastical place so far from home that it must have been cool. I lived in rural Missouri with no team to support and I liked the allure of a city so far from home. I would later move to Portland for a brief time and attend my first NBA game. Who is your current favorite player? Right now it has to be Brandon Roy, but I really want it to be Greg Oden. I am excited by Oden, but until he turns into the beast I think he can be, I'm keeping my fragile, often-broke sports heart with No. 7. Who is your All Time favorite player? Dunno... maybe Pete Maravich. But Drexler is up there as well as Darryl Dawkins (for his Chocolate Thunder poster I had as a kid), Dr. J, and lots of current Blazers. What was your favorite moment? As stupid as it sounds, probably the second the ping-pong balls gave us the #1 pick and the chance to pick Oden. No matter how it ends up that is when I was the most excited by the Blazers. I didn't follow closely enough when MJ was destroying us in the 90s and after that there are just a series of forgettable moments (and players)
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Mid-seventies Who is your current favorite Blazer? Brandon Who is your All Time favorite Blazer? Bobby Gross + Bill Walton What was your favorite moment? 10th grade...being at game 6 NBA Finals - watching and being a part of Blazermania - as we beat a really talented 76'er team for the Championship! Second: When Portland received the 1st selection of the NBA Draft last year - ODEN. Give this boy two years and we may see another Championship Team in Portland! I'm really liking Batum and Rudy thus far. I thin Roy is out of sync as is Aldridge. Team needs chemistry to form. Team also needs a different half-court offense sets. Having Oden continue to come out high to set screens is not the answer! Send Aldridge out to set screens (pick and roll) as he can shoot from outside! Keep the giant under the baskett at all times! Not 100% sold on Nate as coach - although it is not for disliking the guy...I just think we need an assitant coach to serve as Offensive Coordinator? if you will.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since 1971 Who is your current favorite player? Roy Who is your All Time favorite player? Roy (his mental toughness seperates him from Drexler) What was your favorite moment? The year before the Blazers won the title. It was the first NBA game I attended at Memorial Coliseum against the Warriors. Walton was not supposed to play, but I think after halftime Big Bill suited up and the Blazers went on to defeat the Warriors. I still recall the crowd going wild and stomping their feet. Good times. Hopefully those times return with titles.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since I moved to Portland in '98 Who is your current favorite player? Brandon Roy Who is your All Time favorite player? Bill Walton .. I know it didn't last long here, but he did manage to get a title, and I always seemed to end up next to him at Dead shows... What was your favorite moment? The 2006 draft! It was at that moment I felt we'd really turned a huge corner...away from the Jailblazer era. Roy, Aldridge, Sergio, Raef's contract (which we have yet to see the benefit of...but will!), etc.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? 4 Years (since my SuperSonics started being stripped from me) Who is your current favorite player? LaMarcus Aldridge Who is your All Time favorite player? Jerome Kersey What was your favorite moment? I was at the Rockets game with 8 points scored in 1.9 seconds. I've never seen ANYTHING like it!!
Re: Blazer Roll Call Welcome aboard. Let all your former Sonic fan friends know they're welcome here too.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? since about the 92 season.... cant remember the exact point but i remember going downstairs in my basement watching blazer games with my mom and dad with a ton of people cheering whenever blazers scored it was awesome Who is your current favorite player? i love batum i cant wait till he matures a little bit more, but rudy, LMA, Roy, oden shit i like the whole team Who is your All Time favorite player? Clyde the Glide DREXLERRRRRRR i remember meeting him in fred myers getting his autograph along with alot of the 93 team What was your favorite moment? Roy hitting that rediculous 3 against the rockets and jumping up and down going holy shit holy shit that was amazing
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Late 80s. I grew up within walking distance of Lewis & Clark College. Back in the day, Blazers used to practice there. I used to go to the gym when I was young and ask for signatures. I was younger then, but I don't remember a single player ever giving me the could shoulder. Duckworth was a super nice guy. Who is your current favorite player? Roy. Who is your All Time favorite player? Drexler. THE nicest guy you'll ever meet. What was your favorite moment? Hasn't happened yet.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since I was 10, 1992. Who is your current favorite player? Rudy Fernandez Who is your All Time favorite player? It used to be Clyde.. but I kinda love Rudy now. What was your favorite moment? When Brandon hit his second three against Houston this year.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Early 90's. I have strong and bittersweet childhood memories of the playoff runs in 90 and 92. Who is your current favorite Blazer? Gotta be Brandon Roy. That guy is such a strong presence for the team and for the city. Who is your All Time favorite Blazer? For nostalgia and overall career achievements, I'll have to go with Clyde. I do love this squad of '08, though -- ask again in three years and my answer may have changed... What was your favorite moment? Those last few possessions in the Houston game this season was a spot-on example of why I watch this team and this game. Simply beautiful.
Re: Blazer Roll Call Been a fan since 1999 -- since I was 10 or 11. Favorite current player? Oden, Roy, LMA and probably JayBay Favorite of all-time? Don't have one all time favorite Favorite moment? Winning the 07 lotto is up there.
Re: Blazer Roll Call Been a fan since about '88 (Franz Bread Blazer trading cards of Clyde, Kiki, and Mo sucked me in at the tender age of 8). Current favorite Blazer--I hate to be cliche, but it's Roy. So good, so classy, such a leader. Favorite of all-time--Gotta be TP (for now) Favorite Blazer moment--The only playoff game I've attended in person, 5-10-99 v Phoenix. Never experienced a sports atmosphere like the NBA playoffs.
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? 1976 Who is your current favorite player? Brandon Roy Who is your All Time favorite player? Clyde What was your favorite moment? Winning the championship!
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Since I can remember. Raised in Portland since I were 3 years old. It just always was. Who is your current favorite player? Rodolfo Fernández Farrés Who is your All Time favorite player? Terry Porter What was your favorite moment? The airport after they beat Phoenix in the WCF in 1990
Re: Blazer Roll Call How long have you been a fan? Well sometime in the mid 90's don't remember exactly when but in that time frame. Who is your current favorite player? Martell Webster, Brandon Roy Who is your All Time favorite player? Brandon Roy What was your favorite moment? just glad to have a good team and to of stuck with them when most my friends jumped off. anymore? Just so people know I am a avid reader of these forums, I have ran my own sports forum for years but after a lot of ups and downs I think its time with growing up and gaining responsibility to move on and find a good community to join just to talk blazers in my spare time. *Have not posted in a long time but you can see my join date... thats why im posting here.
Re: Blazer Roll Call been a fan as long as i can remember, im 32 so early 80s/late 70s. brandon is my favorite current player, we'll see if he can surpass clyde when its all said and done. my favorite moment isnt technically a blazer moment but when clyde was on houston he got ejected by jake o'donnell, got up in his grill and unintentionally spit all over jakes face. that led to jake being investigated by the league and getting kicked out of the nba. he admitted to having an ongoing hate for buck and clyde. it helped solidify my opinion that the refs are corrupt and we never got fair officiating, still dont.
