    I would turn anyone in. I don't care if he was a famous blazer either.

    I'd ignore it unless it were Denny. This assumes that Denny would be a Blazer player.

    I'm not the police. I would look the other way and let the store and the authorities deal with it. There's no way I would rat out Lillard.

    I didn't start this thread. You're making it look as if I did.

    If it was Lillard then probably not. If he got caught, Stephen Smith would be frothing at the mouth for the next month. If it was Thomas Robinson then yes,
    my friend worked at a Sprint Wireless store and said he was a class A jerk.

    Some of these answers are so sad. It does, however, answer the question of how our society is all fucked up.

    Pretty much goes to say if they are making the kind of money an NBA player is and they are stealing from any store, anywhere they are pretty much a "Class A Jerk!"

    It's not Lillard. He doesn't even lead the team in steals.

    Now Meyers Leonard, well I'd just HAVE to narc on him. It's the only way to halt one of those Webster/Outlaw endurance scenarios in which fans are held hostage for 5 years.

    Lillard is probably shoplifting due to mental problems, rather than to save money. It's sad, I hope he gets help before this becomes public and his career is ruined.

    If it were a white Blazer, I would turn him in. If it were a black Blazer, I would not. Because by turning in a black basketball player, it would fuel all sorts of racist stereotypes in the media about black people being criminals and I am anti-racist.
