Blazers guard Jerryd Bayless, who was on the perimeter of the huddle, said he saw the whole event transpire.

“They were drunk, obviously,’’ Bayless said. “I was actually close to Rudy, but when I saw them coming, and once they got onto the court, I stepped back.’’


whats up with that Bayless?

Nice for Rudy to know who DOESN'T have his back.

I have a friend like that.

Once in our teens when I was attacked by 2 older guys he ran to the other side of the park and rooted for me from a position of safety.

If that would have happened to Shawn Kemp he would have had both of those women pregnant before the team left for the airport.

I would have rooted against you.

He'd have them both pregnant before he left the huddle.

HAHAHAHAHA!!

I think Bayless had the smarts to realize that a couple of tipsy women saying "I love you" and hugging Rudy were not a threat.

But the points in the article hold. It shows how misdirected "security" is. Something I know tons about, having had my cakes declared a terrorist threat (all they threaten is cholesterol levels). So called "security" gets loony about innocent things, including a coach needing to take a leak, but a player gets grabbed - yes, no harm in this case but what if it were some nativist who hates foreign players? Some racist? Whatever?

Why is it smart to treat tipsy women differently from tipsy men?

If it was at the Rose Garden, it probably would have been my wife!

Remember about 6 or 7 seasons ago a guy dressed like a chef or cook walk right buy security during a time out onto the court and took off his apron that had something written on it about the war in Iraq! I couldn't believe he got all the way out there!

 

[jlprk]

When they saw I wasn't wearing underwear, they let me through!

 

[Blazed Mania 52]

Every female I've talked to, Blazer fan or not, has a huge crush on Rudy. What a lucky bastard.

Cuban: White House had same problem

DALLAS -- The NBA is investigating a security breach at American Airlines Center that allowed two female fans to walk into the Portland Trail Blazers' huddle during Saturday's game, The Oregonian reports.

According to the newspaper, two fans walked onto the court and into the Blazers' team huddle with 41 seconds remaining in Portland's win over the Dallas Mavericks. One of the women reportedly wrapped her arms around Portland guard Rudy Fernandez from behind before they were ushered away.

A league spokesperson said the league is investigating the incident.

"We're looking into exactly what happened," NBA vice president of basketball communications Tim Frank wrote in an e-mail to the newspaper.

The Oregonian reported that the women, whom Portland guard Jerryd Bayless said appeared to be "drunk," were allowed to return to their seats.

How did security miss two fans walking onto the court and into a team huddle?

"The same way someone snuck into a White House function," Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said in an e-mail to the newspaper. "Someone made a mistake. It happens in every arena."

I was actually at that game. It was Jordans last game at the garden for the Wizards

do you think marc cuban would be so flippant if they had walked up and hugged him?

 

[MARIS61]

Paul Allen should add a sniper to the travel crew so our team would be safe from such frightening attacks!

Shoot on sight all tipsy women who love Rudy!

He'd be too busy trying to remember when he had hired them to do that.

So do some of the males.
