    If I were there, I'd cheer him. He gave the organization everything he had while he was here and was one of the best the organization has ever had, and now he's moved on, as have the Blazers. I think the way people are villainizing him is stupid. His crime from what I can tell is changing his mind and wanting to be closer to his family. I expect it will be the case, but I'll disappointed if most of the crowd boos him.

    There is never, ever, EVER an acceptable reason to play a Bob Dylan song.

    Ever.

    This season ticket holder will happily boo every single time he touches the ball. Gonna have to bring cough drops for timeouts.

    Replace the two words Bob Dylan with Bruce Springsteen and you and I are on the same page.

    Opposing team intros are done with the lights on, right? If so, that might be a viable option.

    Another, easier, option would be to throw marshmallows at him during his first trip to the free throw line. Find someone who's a season ticket holder in each section that surrounds the opposing team's 1st half basket - they can organize the Marsha Toss for their section. Bring several bags of Aldridges to the game, pass them out as people take their seats, and then when Marsh gets fouled and walks to the line - let 'em loose!

    BTW, I think this should be a thing until the day he retires, similar to the octopus thrown on the ice at Red Wings games.

    Unlike hockey, I think we'd get a "unsportsmanlike conduct" technical as a crowd if we did that.

    Maybe it's just me, but there is almost this hollowness I feel as a Blazer fan that out greatest players never RETIRED as Blazers. Walton had his final hurrah with The Celtics. Drexler asked to be traded to Houston (still not over the day that, not kidding) where he won a title, and now LMA bolted. Almost ever major NBA franchise has a legend retire with them. LA has Magic and West, Boston has too many to list, even Utah has Stockton. I always get the feeling that when the Blazers retire a number the players are always just guests for the week. I guess I am saying that it would be nice to have have a guy who represents the Blazers as THE ONE. Hopefully, Lillard is that guy.
