Trading Leroy Ellis to the Lakers (the fucking Lakers!!!) at the end of our inaugural season for no other reason than to shed salary. Sorry......I have a very long memory.......
>Walton was ok then he became a TV man and instant hate. That blow hole, self centered narcistic giant heap of parrot droppings.
I've only hated two Blazers. Bonzi and Felton. I can't deal with players lashing out at the fans. It bothers me. Hence my handle. I lost my shit when Bonzi told the local media that Blazer fans need to be more "professional" after he flipped us off.
I do not remember any issues caused by Oden, BRoy, LaMarsha, or Clyde "ON COURT". During games, all 4 players were very professional. “Off COURT”, I will agree with you. My point was Sheed caused the most unforgivable problems to the Blazers “ON COURT” during way toooo many games. Sheed was very unprofessional during the games. Plus I never believed Sheed played to his potential. Sure he was good, but not as good as he could have been.
Remember when he didn't show up until just before tipoff against the Celtics one Sunday morning because he was getting stoned in the showers?
I always wondered just how much the Blazers had to cover up with the Jail Blazers era. We only know what made the press. But I always wonder what certain employees knew after receiving phone calls from P.I.'s at 3 AM.
John Canzano, for arrogantly trashing every thing the team does, like he's doing us all a favor showing us his truth because we aren't smart enough without him. Then taking credit like his shtick caused the team to make changes.
Lady Luck - for some reason that bitch hates us. All joking aside since the late early 90's we have had 3 teams or at least 3 potential team that I felt had a legitimate chance to win it all. With all 3 it was bad timing or bad luck. And all teams run into bad luck but I'm guess with most teams at least one of those three potential teams would make it happen and win.
I think Felton was the only Blazer I hated. He was an overrated lazy knucklehead for whom we gave up one of my favorite players. And, when he got here, he compounded his lazy knuckleheadedness but being increasingly more lazy and knuckleheaded and a whiner on top of it.
