    I know that there are many stupid threads started here, so guys, calm down if you think it's too much:)

    There is a purpose of this trhead. It's just before Game 7 and I am so sure that most of us would like to tell Blazers team this one thing (well, at least I feel like this):

    I love what this team achived so far this season. In this playoffs. I am, as a fan, so fukin proud of my team. My team - yes:) Finally. I'm proud to be Blazer fan.

    From game 1 this playoffs Blazers matured so much, they were joy to watch, they gave me so much good time.

    My biological clock changed to 4:30 am (cos I'm in Europe) and I don't mind. "The shot" against OKC was my first and best birthday present that day. (Thank you Dame!)

    All in all, I'd like to tell whole Blazers team, that I am extremly proud and happy for what you do. We going to be even better next season and this feeling is great.

    Game 7 - here we go! Enjoy this run Blazers. No pressure from here. It's great to be Blazers fan again.

    Thank you.

    And I'm proud to be a Blazer fan, where the play in the 5-0-3
    And I won't forget the shot Dame hit to clinch series victory
    And I'll gladly stand up next to you and cheer for them today
    Cause there ain't no doubt, I love this team--best in the NBA.

    I have spent the last 29 years rooting for Blazers from Oakland. All the times I was asked why I was not a Warriors fan I said because love has nothing to do with geography.

    This team is special. This year is special. And I don't want it to end.

    Go Blazers.

    ET actually looked like he was in control. However, if you drive into the paint or in the key, the other team should fear your jump shot or layup. Driving in there without this parameter certainly makes ET one dimensional.

    Go Blazers! DEN Game 7 is the one in which to score 18 swish3s which have been determinate for wins across the Playoffs. I imagine Dame, CJ, Meyers, Rod, and Seth each scoring 3 or more swish3s and Chief, Mo, and Zach each adding 1 in the SemiFinals Win! Let's score 130+ points on DEN again!!!

    Strenuus, Rod is Rodney Hood, who played a great DEN Game 6! Kudos to Rodney for 25 points with his 8 of 12 FG, 3 of 4 swish3s, and 6 of 9 FT! Let's see him do it again in Game 7!

    Defense, rebounding, assists. Bonus if he scores some points.

    Blazers:

    Portland has your back. This 49th Blazers season has been special. When Paul Allen died, we grieved with you. From the Summer League Championship, to the opening winner against LA, to beating the Warriors, to the injuries of CJ McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic, to the comeback win by our bench in the last game of the season to pull out 53 wins, to the 4-1 defeat of the Thunder in round 1 of the playoffs with "the shot", to the 4OT game 3 against Denver, to a rip roaring game 6 win, we root for you. We stand by you. We are proud of you. You have more heart and resilience than any team. You will not be alone in Denver in game 7. We will be with you.

    That's what I find so funny. Posters complain about Turner shooting the ball and in this series he has taken very few shots and now they complain cause last game he didn't score. Well, he also didn't shoot while doing a good job of running the offense and great defense on Milsap.
