    One of the greatest "Trail Blazers" ever. Only time I've ever been truly star struck was seeing Muhammad Ali at the BG Foundation Gala.

    What a great memory man. A few years back I was honored when he asked me to make the intro video to that event. Pat Riley, Michael J Fox, Ali and BG footage. One of the greatest experiences of my career. I was able to meet those guys when they viewed it before the event. Never forget it.

    I had the pleasure of seeing him often several years back and even got to speak to him as his son was the same age as my grandson and his son played for West Linn and my grandson played for Putnam in both football and basketball both in youth sports and high school. Very classy man. His ex wife was pretty hot as well. :bgrin:

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Remember when we didn't draft Michael Jordan because we already had Anfernee Simons?

    Seriously bad move.

    That would effectively end any chance of him ever winning a championship.

    Yeah I don’t see CP3 going to NY. They need to find talent in the draft and build a decent team before they start thinking about attracting stars IMO.

    Clippers are murdering the Rockets tonight. Makes sense though...they're certainly not going to have any difficulty handling their small ball.
