That could have something to do with the fact they only won 21 games last year. It's hard to get publicity for winning games when it rarely happens. Especially when the roster has douchebags Zach Randolph and Darius Miles as the so called "leaders."
The press they get here in Portland is hilarious. It seems none of them can take a dump without there being an article in the paper about it.
I was using "ironic" from the standpoint that they should be getting pub for playing, but because they choose to do stupid things they get coverage for all the wrong reasons.
The strange thing is a guy like Rasheed Wallace. He had his issues in Portland, on and off the court. He comes to Detroit, where they have a strong lockeroom and he fits right in and has no problems.
The bottom line is that these are grown men making a lot of $ to play hoops and they are ruining it by being stupid.
