Oh yeah, no worries. Yeah, moved over to Australia for work and study.
we've got quite the down-under presence here. I think Moonbeam is there and another regular poster as well. Two more and you guys have a BB team
Yeah, I remember talking to a couple of them on here when I first moved out. Seeing NBA jerseys is always pretty funny out here. Every sportswear store usually has 3 main jerseys on display out here.... Cavs James jersey, Warriors Curry jersey.... then a Spurs Mills jersey. The first time I saw that I was like.... wtf. Then a second later it donned on me he was Australian. So yeah, every Spurs jersey here is basically only a Mills jersey (as far as I've seen).
Speaking of overseas sports marketing, I was over in Singapore a few weeks back and Lillard was repping Portland nicely on some banners in mall shoe stores.
I saw a Kawhi jersey awhile ago. It was pretty surprising! I saw someone with a Roy jersey around 2010!

I saw an Aldridge jersey from around the same time by a guy walking down the street. I was like, 'Sup man! You a Blazer fan too.", he said "No, I just liked the colors (or maybe I should say colours)" ......
This was me after that exchange:

I wear Blazer gear a lot during lectures and sometimes I'll get some comments. I did meet one fellow Blazer fan last year who was very high on the team's chances this past year. He must have had a rough end to the season.

Re: SAC @ POR - GAME THREAD (Preseason Game 1)
I played a game of social Bball a few months ago against a guy wearing an Aldridge jersey. He was the only one on their team who didn't have their standard black/red jersey, he just rocked the Portland one! haha.
On another note, I re-watched Coach Carter today (one of my favourite all time movies) and Werm (one of the main characters) rocks a Portland jersey in it. I seem to recall it's the only club jersey shown in the movie, and the movie's based on Richmond in California.

A bunch of addicts finally getting a cheap fix after a long withdrawl from the good stuff.
Absolutely... and that wasn't a criticism. I bet I have posted in this thread more than those as well.
