RIP City lost one of its beloved Blazers heroes yesterday; part of the Blazers FAB 5 Kevin Duckworth past away doing what he always did best: giving back to his fans. The Blazer family truly lost a large part of its' family & we all know that his size was only due to his enormous caring heart & just maybe his ardent love for pizza 'n wings (but who doesn't have that?!?!?! Say you don't & I'll call you a liar!)
All and all, he loved being a Blazer & we loved him for the 1990 Game 7 Playoff comeback & shut down of David Robinson. His biggest flaw according to his teammates was that he was "too nice of a guy for a big man in the NBA," if we could only strive for that to be our own, the world would be a much more agreeable place.
Here's to the big guy in the sky, whenever I pull a lil baby hook in my pick up games at work I will think of only The Duckworth. This ones for you Duck....
