Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

James

There was recent discussion on whether or not the Blazers should go for LBJ this summer. My vote is no and this is the main reason. Wrong attitude.

Who's got what tats??

Ok here are my guesses
Florida with bullet holes: Steve Blake
Young Money: Juwan Howard
BAYLESS: Andre Miller

How’d i do?

I believ Young Money tattoo belongs to JR Smith?

I'm gonna be the only A-hole that owns a Nic Batum jersey that doesn't live in France. Awesome.

Just Checked...

JR Smith AND Brandon Jennings.
The Florida ink belongs to Udonis Haslem

I'm gonna be the only A-hole that owns a Nic Batum jersey that doesn't live in France. Awesome.

Really?

If LeBron really wanted to come here, you would say no because of a tattoo?

Get well Greg! Rip City is still behind you!

my reaction also

the greatest player in this era and you turn him away cause of his tattoo

dumb dumb dumb

Heartbroken..... Our goats have escaped.

even though the tattoo is pretty lame

id give up anything to get him here. He is destroying teams with scrubs around him already.

If we had the opportunity to get Lyndon B. Johnson and turned it down.

I’d cry myself to sleep until he retired.

Wearing the black band for Jarrett Jack, Ime Udoka, Fred Jones, Sergio Rodriguez, Channing Frye, Luke Schenscher, Shavlik Randolph, James Jones, Josh McRoberts, Steven Hill, Jarron Collins, Michael Ruffin, Steve Blake and Travis Outlaw. Sacrificed to the unmerciful god of progress.

is this post for real?

are you really serious you wouldn’t want LBJ here because of a TATTOO? he’s the best player on the planet – this is a joke right?

And bad attitude – everything they say about him is that he’s the best teammate in the league…

best player on the planet

I don’t care what he does off the court.

the dancing stuff usually includes his whole team

but to say you wouldn’t take Lebron James because HE HAS A BAD ATTITUDE – with your evidence being a tattoo on his back that says Chosen 1 (which was his nickname that was printed on the cover of Sports Illustrated when he was in high school by the way) is just silly

And what hasn’t he done to live up to that. He’s the greatest athlete to ever play NBA basketball, period. Anyone who watched him play against us this year saw that, it was the easiest 20 point quarter I’ve ever seen a player have

by rip_city_swagger on Mar 15, 2010 11:31 AM PDT up reply actions  

what about taking away the dunk tape

from that rookie that dunked on him. I have no respect for him after that.

by vullkem116 on Mar 15, 2010 9:20 PM PDT up reply actions  

seriously?

a) he didn’t really get dunked on, he was just standing there when it happened
b) they weren’t even supposed to be filming those games, THAT’S why there was such a big deal about it leaking – it violates certain amateur status rules governing college ball players, Lebron didn’t play as big a role in that as it was made out to be (it was hyped to be more of a media story)

Bottom line – a video tape, tattoo, whatever – BEST PLAYER ON THE PLANET….don’t let little things skew your view

by rip_city_swagger on Mar 16, 2010 9:31 AM PDT up reply actions  

On the planet is a bit much

If The Air Up There taught us anything, it was that there is untapped potential all over the world.

Andre Miller is an Anachronism

by tominhawaii on Mar 16, 2010 10:03 AM PDT up reply actions  

My perception is that his talent is matched only by his ego

But I would take him in a heartbeat.

"1999, the year of the restoration"

guess which Blazer big man had that message tatooed on his shoulder?

When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!

by two4larue on Mar 15, 2010 12:21 AM PDT reply actions  

Stupid tattoo....but the NBA is littered with em', and Lebron is the best player on the planet.

Plus, we can just make him cover it up with a real tattoo when he comes here……after he’s tired of getting shut down by Batum in the finals for 8 years straight.

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.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
