    Best of luck to a solid individual on and off the correct. Cj gets my full respect and i certainly hope he can reach full potential for the balance of his career( except when facing the Blazers)

    Good luck on all future endeavors CJ!!!

    I will always respect the man. CJ was a true class act. And he was extremely talented..... I just never liked the Dame/CJ pairing from a basketball standpoint, but that doesn't take anything away from him as a great ambassador for our team and our city. He will be missed.

    His game 7 in Denver was magical. That I will not forget.

    That man is a magical scorer and a class act. All the luck to him going forward.

    Will really miss CJ. The haters are going to learn what he meant to the team and they're going to learn how rare it is for high level talent to want to stay in Portland.

    I think his best performance was knocking out Memphis with a broken back in the bubble.

    CJ needed a change if scenery and to be able to be primary scorer in a back court.
    Pels now have three guys that can take over s game at any point. The big guy needs to be healthy and playing though.

    Definitely appreciate CJ.
    Don't agree with the "too small" backcourt thing.
    Problem was he accepted way too much $$$ from us, making his contract too big a liability.

    You were a great Blazer CJ but you didn't fit with your buddy Dame, not even a little. That being said, a total class act all of the time from day one. Good luck but also lose enough games that our pick is really good, obvioiusly.

    As a Colgate grad, I tip my hat to my fellow Patriot League grad. Fare thee well, CJ.
