I did pre sale 2 weeks ago and have tickets to all home games. I've stated I wanted some original/unity chants... It is decided, this is our season, this is our time. I'm going to be yelling "this is our house" friday. And whether you are sitting near me, or hear this from a far, I implore you to join in. The players may or may not know this, but the worst we can do is re affirm the notion. Friday is when we let our voices be heard, it is when we let the world know. This....is our house! I ask everyone of you who are going to the game , or have friends/family going, to pass the word on. Don't be shy, talk to other blazermaniacs and let them know who's time it is! Tell the stranger sitting next to you, beg them to tell the person next to them. I want 20,000 strong chanting in sync, because this team is ready to be together, us fans should be together as well! Edit: going to start prior to tip to try and get team hype. Before the tip let's try to get the arena chanting "our house..our house..." In unison! And at request of an other blazermaniac I encourage all to chant "we are...rip city" at the start of the 4th. Second edit: I feel like our time is counting chickens, our house seems much more suiting, yet still intimidating!
I think the Rocket fans have been good considering the circumstances. Like the team. We need to be better.
This team gives 100% effort 24/7, the least we can do is give 48 minutes of total effort. This goes beyond the first round series, everyone opposing team should dread coming to portland! There should be no greater home court advantage in the nba! I can only yell so loud, and tell so many people, I'm counting on you s2 faithful to help me get the word across, let's show the world how special portland is!
So wish I was there. The rosegarden is going to lose a roof. I want some mvp chants for aldridge. Also wouldnt hurt to chant his name, he's always wanted it.
Can we black or white out the arena? Or are the Portlland fans too good to participate in anything like that?
I hope the Blazers don't fucking give everyone matching shirts. Dumbest shit ever. I like people rocking all their own shit they brought from home! Portland's fandom is organic, not provided by corporate overlords. Jokelahoma City is the worst at this.
It will be interesting to see what the front office does. But if there is one thing that has stood the test of time it is that we don't need t-shirts to unify us. Our love from the team is what makes us alike, not some stupid fuckin shirt!
This! I don't know if we could get enough organization by Friday, but of we all chanted 'our time, our time' right before tip, then that would be amazing! I'll show up early and do my best to spread the word around. Does that seem like a good time for that chant?
I saw it on Instagram. He kind of looked like an Alien. He's winless ever since I posted it up! :MARIS61: (although I like the Spurs after the Blazers in the West)
I hope you guys get lots of cool free shit what ever they decide to do. I remember when I went we got a sign to wave its been on my wall ever since. Its got foot prints on it still from when I was jumping up and down as roy led the comeback.
The Walton Dolls game was my first here in Portland. Good times. The Blazers have done red and white outs. I am betting they do it again Friday.
I'll be as loud as I can, but we all know the rose garden gets so loud that one voice can't break the barrier, gotta have help!
Seriously, we need to be like the Warriors fans in the 2007 Dallas series. I have never heard a louder arena.
