That deserves front and center on ESPN. In fact 30 for 30 should feature Jerome Kersey, a class guy.

If you have the trailblazers app on your smartphone, the remembrance is on.

This is tough to watch.

 

[Strenuus]

Terry hitting me right in the feels talking to Grandma Kersey. Damn.

 

[Spud147]

This is tough to watch.

I hope they tape this... I can't watch any more of this at work without embarrassing myself

 

[Strenuus]

Wow. What a story about Jerome from Terry about meeting a fan. I'm tearing up, man. I love people like that.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

It's awesome to see the current players there.

 

[Strenuus]

Dame is at the event, as well.

Dame is at the event, as well.

Yes but he needs to stop tweeting and posting on instagram, lol

 

[Strenuus]

No one will ever be able to tell a story like Schonz. It's going to be hard when he goes...

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Wow...

A little choked up.

 

[Strenuus]

This is hard... Good grief.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

That's amazing and yet really sad that Jerome's grandma is there.

 

[Strenuus]

Oh wow, I didn't know that. Kersey would take some of the suite food and pass it out to the homeless after blazer games. Amazing, amazing.

 

[Strenuus]

Oh man. I'm done. I'm crying. This is so touching.

 

[Strenuus]

Jerome's Daughter taking time to thank steve blake for giving up his jersey number.

 

[Strenuus]

Jerome Kersey - "Portland's Son!" I like the ring to that.

 

[Strenuus]

Oh man. Kersey's daughter's speech is amazing. I hope they can play this all back.

Damian lillard posting on fb about going to j.cole concert. Hopefully that wasn't him on his phone there. Bad timing for a publicist to post too....

He posted it before this started.

Ah. I read that as twitter.

I hope not.

Regardless, this service is amazing.

 

[Strenuus]

What a POWERFUL ending...

Schonz lead the coliseum in a "MERCY MERCY, JEROME KERSEY" Cheer. Amazing.

Video of "Bust-a-bucket" to end the celebration. Love.

awwh fuck man JK and Big Mase...granted i only caught the back end of their careers but it sucks

that bike lane thing is awesome man

 

[SlyPokerDog]

 

[Strenuus]

It's worth a watch. Truly beautiful.

I will check it out. Sounded like it was more of a celebration of his life than a mourning of his death.
