All-Time Trail Blazers Team

[MarAzul]

I also question anyone who doesn't believe in Dame to be a true Blazers fan.

Question all you like, if it pleases you. I have appreciated the Blazers as my favorite team since the first exhibition game in 1970. There have been many Blazers players to
to move me to appreciate their performances and contributions to the game during this time span. I really love to see consistent high performance.

Watching a PG lead the league in three point shots attempted while finishing well down the board in makes, does not move me to appreciate. Then capping this off with
.116, gunning them up in the playoffs is hardly admirable. I think Lillard lead the league in regular season with attempts but finished last of the top 20 shooters in three point percentage. The last guy in percentage and first in attempts? WTF? While I know this is correctable, appreciation will not come until performance changes the perception.

So question my "Fandom", I am not a fanatic, I appreciate good Basketball and I like to see the Blazers do it well and hopefully the best.

No. Your right. Questioning fandom was out of line and I apologize.. I should say, anyone that doesn't think he will continue to work to improve I think doesn't pay attention to the big picture and only likes to focus on erratic moments of his play, during which the team as a whole was on a downward spiral.
I don't question your faith as a fan. I question your faith in work ethic, drive and determination. I think you are rather blind to the many things that he says and does to show you he means to get better. Your lack of faith that he will do what it takes is rather perplexing.

If I'm putting together a team that can actually play together and not just look good on paper:

Dame
Drexler
Pippen
Sheed
Walton

Off the bench:
Porter
Roy
Cliffy
Lucas
Sabonis

No Kersey? I have a hard time considering Pippen to be a Blazer, just because he only played a few years for us in the twilight of his career. Also Dame/Strickland is a tough call for me.

Not even difficult.

Yep! I have always been short on faith, I love to be shown.

This made me think of a great clip from Star Wars Episode IV!

Darth Vader - I find your lack of faith disturbing.

With all the trash talk about the NBA's all-time best team between Shaq and Scottie Pippen the past couple days, it got me thinking. If we had to pick an all-time best team for the Trail Blazers, who would it be? Mine would consist of: Damian Lillard, Clyde Drexler, Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge and Bill Walton.

What would yours be?

starters: porter, drexler, kersey,aldridge,(young sabonis).
bench: Dame, mathews, roy, lucas, walton.

now if you wanna throw in the 2 two pics we should have had also...micheal jordan over bowie.... and kevin durrant over greg oden.... both those players would have been on my dream blazer team....
