AHN Sports Staff
Portland, OR, United States (AHN) - Portland Trail Blazers basketball fans will stage a rally Sunday on the sidewalk around the Rose Garden to woo this summer’s top free agent; Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James.


Blazers fan and event organizer David Chitsazan said a rally will be held Sunday around Memorial Coliseum and the Rose Garden to show their interest in acquiring the reigning two-time MVP.

"We will remain on that city block," Chitsazan told Oregon Live.com via e-mail. "The event was approved by City of Portland Special Events Coordinator Allison Madsen."

The event also follows a similar gathering in Akron, Ohio as fans there feted 'The King' in his hometown Saturday perhaps in an effort to get him to re-sign with the Cavs.

LeBron showed near the event and said a few words of thanks to the crowd, but did not address his impending free-agency.

Speculation on James playing for the Blazers next season erupted after veteran NBA writer Sam Smith induced a sign-and-trade scenario involving James and Blazers centers Joel Przybilla and former No.1 pick Greg Oden.

James will likely opt out from his final contact years with the Cavaliers on July 1 to become the alpha-dog of an incredibly talented free agency class, which also includes Dirk Nowitzki, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, and Joe Johnson.

LeBron to Portland? Not A Chance, But Don’t Tell These Guys

Trail Blazers fans will be peacefully marching around the Rose Quarter Sunday, June 20th, from 7pm-8pm. The LBJ2PDX committee would like to extend an invitation to the media to join us as we attempt to raise awareness and about the upcoming free agency and the possible transactions the Portland Trail Blazers can make.

The Portland Trail Blazers have a serious opportunity to acquire LeBron James through a variety of potential transactions. The Blazers have the richest owner in the NBA, are the only major professional team in the city, and have some of the most loyal fans in the NBA. The City of Portland has a lot to offer to LeBron James. By rallying with our great fan base we not only hope to send a message to Blazers management but also show LeBron James that the city of Portland is excited at the prospect of him in a blazers uniform.

The Trail Blazers fans will be walking around the Rose Quarter, waving signs and declaring our support for the Portland Trail Blazer’s management courtship of LeBron James. With Brandon Roy and LeBron James playing side by side, the Blazers become an immediate title contender. Please come to show your support for LeBron James movement and please help in spreading the word about this exciting time.

For chrissakes. Hold a rally for KP if you're going to do anything; it will prove equally useless, but at least it will be relevant and somewhat rooted in reality versus this pure fantasy bullshit.

Wow...really? This is a great opportunity to make a humorous sign making fun of them. If only I weren't too lazy/apathetic.
