    And I immediately heard back.

    Thanks John. We are considering everything to honor Jerome the best way we can for him and his family. This is on a long list of things we are considering.

    Two more Blazers I would add to that pure heart team are Brian Grant and Steve Blake. Those men make me proud of my Blazers, and even though none were the stars they all are truly special.

    I had thought the team would rally around JKersey and play their game to his honor. The Utah and Memphis game told me they forgot.

    1-year anniversary of Kersey's passing. Give him a moment of silence today and some prayers for his family if you think about it.

    Just over three years ago, our friend and teammate Jerome Kersey passed away. Today we honor his memory by celebrating his 35-point, 20-rebound performance versus the Nuggets on Feb. 12, 1988 in this week's Throwback.
