    HCP, you've just been assigned to hang the aforementioned article in a conspicous place in the visitors locker room tomorrow night. :devilwink:

    Bare knuckled? Punching a condensed can of campbells tomato soup? I don't know. Sounds painful, man.

    If the Blazers need locker room material for this game . . there is something wrong with the team.

    Throwing out the big flop on opening night, this has got to be the Blazers biggest game of the year to date.

    Let's get the this game started :NOTMARIS:

    by about half way through the article, thats the conclusion I was drawing... that this was their over the top/stir the pot media guy. As stale an act as that is for some of us, nearly every market has at least one of those guys... Boston probably has several competing for the honor.

    Even if it's brought to the Blazers attention, I doubt that they'd take it seriously and use it as bulletin board material. It's not like what he says matters... just another douchebag.

    To be honest, I don't think they need ANY motivation for this game. I don't think we are even a blip on their radar. I'm sure the guys remember the way KG was acting like a jerkoff towards them last year here. I think they'll be ready.

    I'm thinking the same thing . . . I can't say I think the Blazers will win . . . but I expect them to stand up to KG and company and take it to them physically in the game.

    We can always make "tomato" type signs when the Celtics come to Portland. It would be funny for one of the camera guys to get that on a broadcast.

    Why is everyone taking this for what it is?

    Simply put, Shaughnessy is a fool and says stupid shit all the time.
