    Who is the best Portland Trail Blazer to never become an All-Star?

    Arvydas Sabonis is indisputably the most talented player in Portland Trail Blazers history that never received an All-Star selection. His accomplishments overseas are immeasurable and leaves him highly regarded as one of if not the best European basketball players ever. If he had come to the NBA immediately instead of waiting until he was 31-years-old to begin that journey, there’s no doubt he would have been named an All-Star. (CONTINUED)

    No doubt. He might be the greatest Blazer ever if he'd come over right away. And we'd have more than 1 title.

    Even after the injuries he was so fun to watch!

    Too bad the NBA refs did not let him and Shaq have an even playing ground.

    No kidding. Shaw was insulated by the refs and didn't give Sabas a fair shake.
