    I still remember the day we traded for Uncle Cam. See, my favorite Blazer, Travis Outlaw, was sent packing to the Clippers because we were in need of a center. Greg Oden and Joel Przybilla had both suffered season-ending knee injuries and our season was in jeopardy. But then, here came Marcus to the rescue. he helped salvage that season and led us to the sixth seed in 2010. I will never forget being in attendance that night at the Rose Garden against the Thunder. No Roy? no problem. Camby took it upon himself to put the team on his back and willed us into the playoffs with a victory that night. 30 points, 13 rebounds, and a chant for the ages. I can still hear it now...Mar-Cus Cam-By....Mar-Cus Cam-By

    Thanks for everything Cam and best of luck in Houston. I'll definitely be pulling for you to make another postseason run! Once a Trail Blazer, always a Trail Blazer.

    Marcus we met at a couple CCA events this year and you were always humble and accessible.  Thanks for sharing your mother in law's story with us.  You should know that all those blocked shots helped the team, ignited the fans, and helped a lot of kids in very desperate circumstances.  I just wish that your winning spirit and fire, even this late in your career, rubbed off a bit more on this team.  You will be missed.

    Marcus I felt was the heart and soul of this team at times. At his age and playing with the intensity that he did, I have so much respect for him. I'm gonna be rooting for him til he retires.

    Marcus I want to thank you for playing for us with so much heart the last year, I am sorry to see you and your awesome defence go and I wish you the best in your future in Huston. I loved watching you play before you were a Blazer and I will love watching you play even when it is against us. Also I want to thank you for all you did in the Portland community, you changed things for a lot of people!

    Gonna miss Camby, after coming to Portland when we thought all was lost at the center position, and helping us into the playoffs. I wish all the best to him and his family.

    Cmeese, his year would''ve been better without the injury, if he could maintain the first half of the year production that''d be great. But I have to agree that his contract is a little too much. I think he should really be worth around 8 mil.

    Yeah sorry man, but if I''m an Orlando fan I''m looking forward for 5 years down the line, especially for the development of Tobias Harris and Mo Harkless, both could breakout, but I''m more excited to see Tobias Harris.

    We know exactly what JJ defense at the 4 is and it is just as bad as the 5 you act like he has been playing center his whole career.

    Luke Babbitt and Nolan Smith are coach killers their terrible play got Nate fired.

    Exactamundo. Seriously though, both of you''ll are right. The blame should be placed on the attacker, not Lillard. That being said, Dame should have stepped in.

    I completely agree. Pierce would bring a culture change. And we as a team really needed someone to help our young players through the tough times. Jeffires and Pavlovic were veterans who didn''t see much court time and from what I saw didn''t real...
