Blazer Roll Call

[BoomChakaLaka]

Since the very beginning--the 1970 NBA season.


Brandon Roy, who else?


Bill Walton.


June 5, 1977.

DITTO. Actually a fan since 1972. Was in the Coliseum on June 5th 1977! Bill Walton, Bobby Gross were my favorites then. Became a fan of Billy Ray Bates (the Legend) for one season...never thought Clyde played up to his abilities. Hard not to like Jerome Kersey, Brian Grant, Danny Ainge.... but my favorite Blazer of all time (yes, after three short years) is Brandon Roy!

I moved from Portland about two years ago - up to Vancouver, BC. Try to watch as much on Justin.TV as I can (sucks, but I we can't get League Pass up here yet!). I subscribe to NBA TV/ Raptors Station....and just hate the Raptors! But get some games at least.

Looking forward to this season.

I do think we should make a trade sooner than later. I see serious log jams and potential malcontents in Playless and Trout.

We need Wallace from Charlotte! Bayless + Outlaw + #1 pick for Wallace? Meh, never gonna happen...just wish it could.

Like what we've done this past few weeks with Eme and Howard. I think we may have had more success last year with these guys on the pine! Miller may prove to be a great addition too - time will tell.

True Story!! I saw the whole thing happen and the first guy he knocked over was at least 70 years old!!! Then Robert Horry proceeded to hit a 3 to sweep us out of the playoffs even though we had the lead right before the 3

I was at that game as well. Pippen missed a free throw that would have at least forced overtime with a three. After the time-out, the three guys in front of us turned around and faced us. I said "what the hell are you doing? This is for the game!". One guy said "we know, we can't watch the three ball that's about to go in". Goddamn if they weren't right. After the shot went in, they just calmly gathered their coats and headed towards the exit.

I was at that game as well. Pippen missed a free throw that would have at least forced overtime with a three. After the time-out, the three guys in front of us turned around and faced us. I said "what the hell are you doing? This is for the game!". One guy said "we know, we can't watch the three ball that's about to go in". Goddamn if they weren't right. After the shot went in, they just calmly gathered their coats and headed towards the exit.

I still recall that. And I recall the moment Epic Fail... Epically Failed lol Pip shot a 3 went off front rim and Sheed caught it one handed mid air and cocked back and Threw it DOWN!! We All got up to cheer and Epic's foot got caught on the chair in front of him. I saw out of the corner of my eye, a dude in red and black face paint STILL IN CHEERING POSITION, in mid air. And I thought to myself "Check out this dipwit falling... OH CRAP! THATS MY RIDE!!!" He fell on an old dude and a domino effect of about 4 rows of fans tumbled! Epic being in shock or something... I pulled him up back one row, and the old dude got up and wanted to fight him! LOL!!! I remember it not being funny at the time, then Horry hit the 3... but the whole Max ride back to Lloyd Center I could not stop laughing!!! Good times.. good times!

That was one of those moments, when I was falling, that I had time to think: "This is all a bad dream. I'm going to wake up any second now." Oh well, at least my first Blazer game was a memorable one...
