    Bill Schonley the long time radio play-by-play guy coined the term.

    "rip city" is because the ball rips through the net, right?

    I love that we're dominating, not just in general, but that we're doing it on ESPN too.

    I blame assclown for not starting Miller all along. Our lead has very little to do with Blakey at all.

    Rip City

    The nickname Rip City is usually used in the context of the city's NBA team, the Portland Trail Blazers.[11] The term was coined by the team's play-by-play announcer Bill Schonely during a game against the Los Angeles Lakers on February 18, 1971, the Blazers' first season.[12] In the days prior to the three-point field goal, Blazers' guard Jim Barnett took an ill-advised long distance shot that nonetheless went in, giving the new team hope for a victory against the powerful Lakers. Excited, Schonely exclaimed "Rip City! All right!" Schonely admits that he has no idea how he came up with the expression, but it became synonymous with the team and the city of Portland.

    Andre at Point Forward on offense is a clever idea. Telling them to run as much as possible is also turning out to be a great idea. Subtracting Outlaw minutes for Bayless is also a nice move.

    So far, you gotta hand it to Nate (or, if you're MM, whoever you think is making the good decisions in spite of Nate)

    :cheers:
