    Sam Amick relayed the exchange during an interview with Brian Berger on 750 today.

    Man, I can't wait for the next two games with the Thunder. I don't have a problem with Durant's answer because each team gets screwed by a bad call from time to time. That said, you get the feeling that there's some genuine dislike between these two clubs. Both games have been really entertaining and I expect that's only going to improve.

    I thought we only get one more this year because of the lockout?

    I thought it was 4 games within the division. Is that not true?

    Just checked and we play them two more times.

    yeah!! That 99-2000 team waltzed their way to a 59-23 record. If Sabas PIP Sheed and the rest had given even the tiniest shit they'd have won all 82. Nobody ever dug deep and played though injury. Great point... repped!

    The Jail Blazer era didn't really start until after Pippen and Smitty left PDX. I get your point, though.

    Not according to the Oregonian. Beginning a couple of years before that, they had dedicated a full daily page on their site to their hatred of the team, listing their transgressions from the past.

    Trolls on ESPN were constantly using the term long before Pippen left.

    True, but that was mainly because of Isaiah Rider and his Coca-Cola can. Once Qyntel Woods hit PDX, and Bonzi/Sheed/Damon were the 'leaders', things really went sideways.

    Where do people get the idea that you have to be an asshole to be a good player? It might be an American thing. I remember when I first came to this country how shocked I was that people made noise and actually tried to disrupt the opposing team when they shoot free throws. That's called "unsportsmanlike" anywhere else.

    You come from Europe where people kill each other over soccer matches.
