    So i was at work when i checked my phone and saw that Hedo and us were on the same page. I was excited, not because hedo is a decent player, but because of what portland has gone through, to not be a lottery team and be active in bringing in a big name free agent, means alot to at least me because it finally proves how far we've come and how much we as fans have stood by our team. But today, when hearing that he backed how, regardless of how it went down, makes my stance on hedo as this.... he is officially one of the biggest d**ks in the nba. You want more money to play for a team like the raptors? Have fun, have fun not winning a championship and by the time that the light comes on that hey, why did i take money, it'll be to late, as you will probably be close to being 36 and your days in the NBA are done. So enjoy that extra 6 million or however much it was that made you look like a complete ass. Portland doesnt need players or people like that. As cool as i thought it would be, i was wrong. Sorry for venting guys, but i was a bit upset about the way he handled it.
    I am a fan of winning a championship and never hearing the words jailblazers or bowie again.

    Thank you, thank you, thank you. I bet the 6 million won't be worth it when we kick their @sses next year. :) I loved your comment.


    Winning vs. money. Money always wins. Lame.

    I feel lame for getting excited about this. But lets face it, the Blazers have come back from worse right? We bounced back from the whole Jordan fiasco, shed the jailblazer image and now, with Hedo? Not a big deal. Thats too much money for a decent player. He doesn't deserve that money, that contract is almost as dumb as giving jason kidd 3 years. So portland will either trade or stick with what we got, and what we got ain't bad. Congrats to Hedo though, he made me like outlaw more. So i say lets let Rudy run wild, let him be the one who takes pressure off Roy, teams have to respect him now, or at least know that, "Hey this dude with the 5 o'clock if not more 730 o'clock shadow burned us for 5 3's last time, maybe we should watch him more" and if not...oh man....68 wins, the finals, and King Lebron can sit and spin on his temper tantrum.

    To be honest, this whole hedo thing really pisses me off. We freakin babied him and pulled out all out all the stops to get him, we bought him dinner for godsake. He jipped us, it was never about winning, never about being sucessful, it was about the freakin money. Thats what I hate about the nba, its all about the money, not about the game. And the fact he changed his mind at the last second makes me sick, seriously what are you eight years old? Honestly, I dont mean to rant, but its frustraiting. If he wants to waste his career in toronto, by all means he can go ahead. I cant wait to play the raptors, I'm going to lose my voice booing this jerk.

    CONSPIRACY THEORY: The plan all along was never to really sign him in the first place, but rather to just drive up the price that someone else was going to overpay him, like Toronto. Here is the kicker. Toronto needs to free up capspace to sign Hedo, how about Travis, and the trade exception for Calderon? Or maybe just the exception. There, now you can re-sign your beloved Matrix and we can win a championship. Thanks for signing Hedo Raptors! You've just been Pritchslapped!

    STOP RIPPING HEDO!!! SERIOUSLY!!! YOU PEPLE ARE ACTING LIKE CHILDREN!! THIS WAS NOT ABOUT MONEY!! He was looking for around 5 years, $50 million, and thats what the Blazers offered him. If you people would actually READ and not just jump to conclusions, you would all calm down. Yes, he gave his word, and yes, he reneged on the deal, but guess what: THAT'S HIS RIGHT AS A PLAYER. He can chose where he goes, and until he signs a contract, he's not obligated to do anything. He had NOT signed ANYTHING, and his wife did not want to live in Portland. There are more things to life than simply money and wins. If you and your family aren't happy, all the money in the world won't matter. So you all need to stop acting like immature little brats who had someone buy the mercedes before you. Him and his family have a right to be happy, who the hell are you to crucify him for that?

    for the record, i would never buy a mercedes. I own a muscle car, which is a much better ride that some $30,000 car.

    Muscle car eh? My 1978 Corolla would rip your muscle car to shreds, in a long distance race. I'm packin' 100 horses, AND...I can get 38 mpg on the highway.

    Rumors have shown that the Rockets are very interested in Dwight Howard and that the interest is mutual.

    I''d trade for Asik.

    Sanders better shotblocker, better dunker and around the rim, Asik better defensively. I think Asik will have the better career.
