    I love Lillard but I wish he was a generational type level talent. It’s rare to have those type of players to stay in one market

    Dame is the shit and I'm so glad he's a blazer. I could go for a little less 100 foot three pointers but that's just nitpicking lol.

    Got some advice for you: If this is your stance you're never going to be satisfied or happy as a Blazer fan.

    Dame is really freaking good and he wants to be here in an age where stars have no loyalty. Instead of being thankful for that you just have to need more. This is part of what's wrong with society.

    Favorite Blazer ever. If he's not yours we can't be friends.

    Yes @TorturedBlazerFan that means you

    Loyalty is a very underappreciated trait in sports these days. Dame is my dude. I'd ride with him through fire. I'm with @VanillaGorilla in that if you disagree, you're wrong.

    The Duck was also a fantastic person. Got to meet him in person several times. He's truly one my favorites from those late 80s/early 90s Rip City teams.
