    It was more of an additive. A joke if you will.

    I hope the Blazers do really well just so Simmons head explodes much like in the movie "Scanners".

    I don't think he's wrong. This take is basically correct if viewed in a bubble. We over paid to continue riding the L-Train.

    But that doesn't make him less of a ridiculously bitter biased jack face. This is just an example that nobody's always perfect. If you keep criticizing someone over and over and over again, eventually you're gonna be right.

    God I can't wait for the season to start.

    Yeah, nothing says world domination like having Omer Caspi being +13 in 28 minutes, with Durant -16 in 26 minutes.

    That, right there, is the stuff legends are made from.

    Sort of. A lot of people talk about Rashard Lewis contract being a bad contract as well. But I didn't see them bitching about that when Orlando was in the finals last year. My point being, as long as you compete for the highest honors in the NBA, the contract is probably worth every last friggin cent.

    simmons 3 tweets

    tweet 1..

    sportsguy33 Also: How could I have a Portland grudge when A.) Breaks of Game is my fav book; B.) I demanded Port. for my book tour; + C.) I love Walton

    tweet 2..

    Come on Blazers fans: you can't be mad about my 41-41 pick. Gotta take 2-3 chances with picks or why even do them? BTW I will be vindicated.


    tweet 3..

    Portland fans are cracking me up. Reacted to 41-41 like my wife reacts when I take too long to react to "Do you like this dress on me?"
    gotta admit he is funny LOL! but he clearly hates this team

    Do you watch Twitter all day? Is that what you do with your life?

    And no, he is not funny. That joke is not funny at all.

    That's pretty funny considering the Raptors signed Andrea Bargnni to a $50 million contract extension this summer. If Bargnani is worth $50 million (he's not, but it's what he got in this market), then Aldridge is an absolute STEAL at $65 million.

    could be a PR move for simmons. make lots of blazer fans come to his signing in beaverton. regardless if they come to tell him to fuck off....they still come and worst case... he sells a few books.

    i doubt hes this smart but who knows. i mean its possible

    So he thinks we'll not only be worse than last year, but as bad as the year before that? The year that Travis Outlaw and Jarret Jack were our third and fourth biggest-minute players?

    Uh, ok.

    aren't there restrictions against trading a guy after you've just signed them?

    I'm reminded of the line from Animal House when Bluto is talking about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor...
