I’m excited. He seems like a great guy and great coach. GO BLAZERS!!

[toophpic]

Its a shame how the press has tried to smear his reputation. Im glad he got the job.

[richardstein]

There’s always been a natural up front quality to Chauncey’s voice that has led people to trust him. He’s a good match for the players.

[lifeofkai]

Loved what he said about defense, and nurkic being more involved initiating off ball offense for dame. Love that he sees Nurkic potential and I think our movement on offense is gonna make us an actual contender. Couldn’t be more excited for Chauncey let’s go! #RipCity

[SWhit]

He was not my choice, but he is the choice. i have been a fan of the Trail Blazers for decades, and will stay a Trail Blazer. Welcome Chauncey.

“We need to buy in and change schemes on defense and we could be better on offense and move the ball way more”-music to my ears

[Castle]

No one deserves to be judged on their past the way we choose to do so currently as a society.

This is a basketball hire and we need to leave the judgment and persecution to God.

Chauncey Billups has championship pedigree, is a father, and has a huge opportunity here. I am supportive of the hire because I believe in this organization.

What you think about, you bring about. PMA. Positive mental attitude. If we lament the skeletons in the closet and what we don't have, we fill our hearts with heavy burdens and find our hands empty.

Support this man and help him take this organization to the next level. Don't poison the well and guard your heart with stone.

As an old samurai once said, "speak not ill of the Warrior within, for he hears your words and is lessened by them."

Be good to each other people. Love begets love.

I NEVER HEARD ABOUT THE “allegations” until now👀🤔 This wasn’t even brought during a championship or anything……Why now? Why must Great Men always be chopped down?🤦🏾‍♂️ Ridiculous! CONGRATULATIONS 🍾🎉 Mr. Big Shot Chauncey Billups🙌🏾

[doublee]

Great hire. Ignore naysayers. Chauncey will be a great gardener of the team's talent.

[jermaneraynor]

Congratulations to one of my favorite players in the 2000s era! I hope he does well! To everyone bashing him, look at yourself before you judge others! Screw the haters!!!! They just mad because Coach Becky Hammons didn’t get it! Get over it! She will get her chance!

[thinkAboutItx]

It's 2021, and of course, they are worried about 1997. There is no issue.

[tribo]

LET’S GO ! “MR. BIG SHOT” WELCOME TO RIP CITY 🏀🏀🏀🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏

[NyQuiiLx]

Bro, they asked about the 1997 incident 3 times! They had to shut down the last one, and another reporter brought it up again. This shows you what the media cares about.

[chrisgilbertson]

I’m so happy they finally made a great decision. He’s the perfect fit for our team. Im so glad he addressed it head on. LETSSSS

[ronjiclark]

I'm Glad To See Chauncey Billups In This Position I Hope Neil Olshey Takes Charge In Putting More Significant Peices Around Damian Lillard

[DOWNBAD_Tay]

I’m so happy for Chauncey, he’s the man for the job . I think he can be a great coach because the way he is, his attitude & he’s a proven finals mvp.

[SkitterMcBoo]

Thank God they hired him. I am feeling very optimistic about my Blazers the next 5 years!

[andrewg.]

The difference between the YouTube Blazer fans reaction and the twitter fans reaction is astounding 😂

[Jeremy-]

Great hire best choice available. Time for the team to realize the potential that Stott’s failed to

[lukezagar]

let’s great hire, super excited for what he can bring for this team over the coming years.
