    I don’t hold anything against Barkley and Malone. They won MVP. That’s an individual award. A championship is a team award. Jordan never won a championship. The Bulls did.

    Imagine arguing NOT putting a statue up of the greatest trial blazer of all time, Damian Lillard.

    Those priorities are all messed up. There's no argument to it. Dame is getting a statue.

    Y'all forget one important thing....Dame hates statues...said it's one of the things he is really creeped out by. He said this when we first signed him. doubt that's changed.

    They never did it before with the greats that passed through here ... so why start now? Besides I'd be starting with Schonely, the man who gave 5 decades to the franchise, bridging every team that's been.

    Since Dame hates statues I'd consider opting for the Dame Lillard hologram...you can push a button and it will give one of his speeches or rap one of his songs....go high tech!

    That is actually a really cool idea.

    How about a sculpture then? Something cool based on Dame Time?

    How about a giant Dame Time clock somewhere at Moda? It can be the new replacement for the Meier & Frank clock downtown...

    "Meet you under the clock!"

    It is sad, but its the world we live in now.

    We have to reward people for just showing up to work everyday, we have become so lazy…

    Building a statue for the best player in franchise history is rewarding him for "just showing up"??

    That's certainly a take.
