Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

What luck. We feel for ya

I don't wanna say it, but is it Sam Bowie all over again? I really hope not. As a Laker fan, I was very intrigued by the Blazers. Hoping there would be a good rivalry between Bynum and Oden. They both had the makeup to become dominant true centers. As Laker fans, we know a little bit about how you feel. You feel like there's so much potential for your team, and then it keeps letting you down.

Bynum getting hurt two years in a row is bad, but I can't say it's anything similar to Oden's problems and potential. We feel for you, and we know you guys are dedicated fans who truly love your team and your basketball. From a Laker fan, I'm sorry, and trust me, as much as you guys hate the Lakers and their fans, we do feel terrible. You guys have a solid team, and it hasn't helped that Oden hasn't been on the floor. Truly, I'm sorry.

Thanks, we appreciate the kind words

And, as much as I hate to say it, it’s starting to feel like bad karma to hate any team in the NBA, especially with the legitimate well-wishers out in force.

Thanks anyway, but

don’t feel sorry for us because we plan on fighting to last man. And if all else fails, we’ll root against your sorry team. OH and by the way, THANKS! But no thanks. We’ve just begun to fight.

He doesn't feel sorry for us.

He is just being classy. There is a difference. So why you don’t you try and return the favor.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.
