Warning: This article is in no way meant to comment on the allegations presented against Chauncey Billups. This is to comment on the treatment of Damian Lillard by Portland Trail Blazers fans.
For years fans of the Portland Trail Blazers have touted themselves as the best fan base in all of basketball. This was personified by the fan base’s relationship with its star man and arguably the best player in the franchises 50+ year history.
Unfortunately, that relationship has been largely strained due to ignorance by Blazers fans who view themselves as Social Justice Warriors online.
