    Yep. Some random fan tweeted it to James and Lillard. I'm not twit savvy either, and it took me awhile to learn that that's how that works. lol.

    Nevermind the fact that the Blazers don't have the cap space to even make a play for James.

    Goodness!

    This is not a fact based thread. But I imagine if James decided he wanted to come here management would find a way to make it work.

    I know he's not coming here but you don't think Paul Allen would open his checkbook wide to add James?

    Mo, Wright and Claver. If they play hard ball, I'd include Will the Thrill, but don't say anything just yet.

    Without Dave Twardzik's energy, no Championship in our history.

    Without Danny Ainge's versatility, the 90's would have been less exciting.

    Without Ruben Patterson's defense, we probably would have broken the most losses record.

    I think those three actually had the biggest impact. We've had some other nice free agent talents that backfired due to egos, too much talent ahead of them, or not enough talent to support them.

    Ruben Patterson is definitely underrated on the court due to being batshit crazy and his issues off the court sure didn't help (like the whole nanny episode). The guy was going 110% on the court at all times though. Quite the worker.

    Wiggins is going to force his way to Portland, ala Kobe when he was drafted by Charlotte.

    Steve Francis is the only guy that I know of who successfully did it since Kobe.

    Yi wasn't happy about being drafted by Milwaukee, but he couldn't force his way out. I also think Rubio was pissed about being drafted by Minny, but he's still there, so....

    I think Danny Ferry did it before Kobe, so no.
