JUSUF NURKIC BILLBOARD IN RIP CITY 

Post#1 » by Dzon Dilindzer » Wed Mar 27, 2019 11:05 am

https://www.gofundme.com/we-love-you-nurkic-billboard

GOAL: $8000
DONATED MONEY: $3,025

so one portland fan came up with the idea to make a billboard for nurk to show him how much rip city loves and appreciates him (cause he really loves pdx and our organization, plays hard and with passion, teammates and coaching staff have nothing but the best to say for him) and people can contribute by donating money on the link i posted

i really wish this happens, so thats the reason im posting this on general board, where non portland fans can see it and maybe help by donating some money... hopefully mods allow this thread, but thanks in advance for those who will donate!

these descriptions says it all :cry:

Awesome. I hope this happens. It is both good for our image around the league and feels like the right thing to do. I really want the Blazers to be modeled after the Spurs, such that there is a respect and loyalty to the players.

It's a nice gesture...

The Blazers should be immediately putting up something similar on the silos across from Moda.

Entire goal has already been raised in a very short time, way to go Blazer fans and others that may have donated.

heres the design of the billboard, it will be very close to the rose garden and it will be there for six weeks!

once again, what an amazing gesture by #ripcity, i love our franchise and our fans!

"volimo te" means "we love you"

This is awesome indeed and demonstrates why Portland has one of the best fanbases in the NBA.

Yep, they said the billboard would be as close to the Moda Center as possible and they pulled it off. It is about 0.1 miles from Moda Center at Northeast Weidler St. and Victoria Ave.
