This place needs a Blazers Forum!

[tlongII]

You've got forums for the Pistons and Kings and they SUCK! Portland will be dominating the NBA for the next 10 years. Resistance is futile. Set up the forum. You will be assimilated.

NO.

this is not how you get what you want
you ask nicely you might get it
are you 2?
portland has sucked
alot of legal trouble

[twincam]

so you feel that just because they get a number 1 draft pick, they'll rule the conference? You need chemistry. Not one person can win it all. You need a true supporting cast.

[L.I.T]

Good for you. Bad Star Trek references always get points across.

[florige]

Maybe if you asked nicely.

Great idea. There will be two members:

What took you so long? I expected your 1st Draft Pick Bravado to rear it's ugly head much earlier.

This is like the sequel to a bad movie

This also doubles as the Mavs forum.

[Obstructed_View]

Why would they do that? There are no Blazers fans on this forum.

No it doesn't

[degenerate_gambler]

Blazer forum is under my desk..

[Mixability]

You get a lottery pick and everyone must bow down immediately?

Two words: Sam Bowie

Four words: Don't count your chickens

[SAGambler]

Portland still be a lottery team next year.

One draft pick isn't going to solve all their problems.

We had good Pistons fans visit...so they got their own forum.
We had good Kings fans visit...so they got their own forum.

I'm sure a Blazers forum would be created if and when we actually had any good Blazer fans visit.

[tlongII]

You might as well set it up now, because they WILL be coming. The dawn of a new age is upon us. The age of the TRAIL BLAZERS!

By the way, here's a valid question for you.


How did you get that live video feed of your brain activity set as your avatar?

[duncan228]

Are there any Blazers fans that are regulars here besides tlongII?
I can't think of any.
It would be a lonely forum if it only had one poster in it!

[Obstructed_View]

And since the only poster that would go there has never made a valid basketball related observation, it would basically be a troll with nobody to aggravate.

I'm sure Mrs. Tlong would pop in there from time to time to keep him "satisfied". Baaaaaaa.

[Aud21946]

A Jail Blazers fourm.. Never!

[Slinkyman]

How is Sam Bowie Jr. gonna make the blazers dominate again?

[Kori Ellis]

The day after the Blazers beat the Spurs in a playoff series, I'll give you your very own Blazers forum.

[ShoogarBear]

Uh-oh. Prepare for the Mav Fan deluge.

[cornbread]

The forum will consist of Tlong singing the Blazers' praises and everybody else trolling the shit out of it for karma's sake.

[ShoogarBear]

Consider this thread as your Blazer Forum.

I know you're not asking me, but I think that would be a baaaaah-d idea.

[tlongII]

That should be in about 10 or 11 months.

They haven't even drafted anyone yet and already talking big.... :rolleyes

Speaking of the Blazers ...

Sources: Knicks talking to Blazers about Randolph
By Marc Stein
ESPN.com

The New York Knicks were in advanced discussions Thursday to acquire Portland Trail Blazers big man Zach Randolph, according to NBA front-office sources.

But such a deal would not have to be completed in conjunction with Thursday night's draft because no draft picks are involved.

The Knicks, sources say, are trying to acquire Randolph in exchange for forward Channing Frye and guard Steve Francis, who has only two seasons left on his contract and has the option to become a free agent after next season. Randolph has four seasons left on his deal worth more than $61 million.

If Francis serves as the big Knicks contract in the deal, Portland would have to add at least one more player to the trade -- guard Dan Dickau is one possibility -- to make the salary-cap math work.

Randolph averaged 23.6 points and 10.1 rebounds in a breakout season in 2006-07 but has faced an uncertain future in Portland since late May, when Portland won the No. 1 overall pick in the draft lottery and the right to select Greg Oden. It's believed that the Blazers, who continue to put a premium on good citizenship after years of turmoil, prefer to jettison Randolph and build around a front line of Oden and LaMarcus Aldridge.

But neither Randolph's troubled off-court past nor the fact that New York already has a low-post presence in Eddy Curry appears to concern Knicks president Isiah Thomas.

If the Blazers agree to send Randolph to the Knicks but prefer Malik Rose to Francis, Rose could be substituted for Francis after July 1 when the final two seasons on Rose's contract -- worth a combined $14.7 million compared to Francis' $34.3 million -- become guaranteed.

Uh-oh. Prepare for the Mav Fan deluge.

There's no need for Mav Fan forum. They'll still camp out here.

Speaking of...there have been a few noticable absentees lately. I guess it's lawn mowing season.

Brandon Roy
Greg Oden
LaMarcus Aldridge
Jarret Jack
Channing Frye

Good core.... IMO though, if you add Francis to that mix he will destroy their chemistry....

[Marcus Bryant]

Well I guess it's really official that they're taking Oden.

[ArgSpursFan]

That should be in about 10 or 11 YEARS

fixed.

[Avitus1]

I'm shocked that the Blazers have any fans outside of there own locker room.

[tlongII]

Still no Blazers forum? WTF???

[Admidave50]

A forum for you and yourself? lol
