Wallace just made his debut for the Blazers. Got a standing ovation.

First play he was in got the defensive rebound on the first shot by Atlanta.

I was gonna come here and say this also! Very nice too see! I'm am on the Portland bandwagon in the western conference. They gave hin a nice ovation the other night too.

Excellent, and classy showing by Portland's fanbase for Gerald Wallace.

It's going to pain me for a while that he's going to be playing in a uniform not Orange and Blue.

I felt tons of emotion seeing him on tv for portland so far tonight, more so than i ever anticipated. I think its harder for me to see gerald in a trailblazers uni than peppers in a bears uni. Gerald is a class act and active int he community..whereas peppers was kinda a recluse.

Good luck G-Force, you are missed.

This team wasn't going to win anything with the squad we have now. Gerald, as popular as he was, like all of us, was getting his older and his numbers were suffering. To get two first picks for him, isn't a bad deal. I hope with three first picks now, we can move up the draft and maybe have some cash to sign a big-time free agent! We should at least be in the running! I know the NBA has a cap, so you're sort of limited, but at least now we can play ball.

I won't judge Jordan until I see the final results. As it stands now, we didn't any actual player(s) for Gerald that are worthwhile. BUT this could turn into something great for us! :)

    • I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.
    • Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!
    • Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
