Shae’s decision making when he catches a kick out has… not been good

I love Greg Oden. He’s become a truly special human being. Hope the organization finds more ways to have him around the team.

“You’ve got to make your free throws” Bill Schonely must be rolling in his grave 😭

Are you fucking kidding me

Okkkkkkkk Kris

DAMIAN LILLARD, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU

Yo @kevindu.bsky.social… POST IT. YOU KNOW WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT. DO IT. I WILL SCREAM SING IT LOUDER THAN I EVER HAVE.

FROM SHAMS: Portland traded Damian Lillard for Jrue Holiday, Toumani Camara, assets in 2023 – then Holiday to Boston for Robert Williams III, Malcolm Brogdon, assets (one led to Deni Avdija). Now, Blazers have Lillard and Holiday, plus Avdija, Williams, Camara, a 2029 first, two MIL swaps.

manifestation is so powerful

Lots of concern about Scoot. Damian Lillard is not playing basketball this year. If Scoot isn't good enough to either take minutes from, or play next to an aging Dame in two years then Scoot isn't good enough period.

"But I thought Dame would go ring chase!" BITCH HE IS.

Theory someone shared with me: Lakers want DA and Jerami but don’t have the cap space. Cronin knows this so they buyout DA which allows LA to sign him for cheap and then trade us a couple young players (Knecht please) for JG. Fun fact, Luka and DA have the same agent 👀

We will absolutely have a top 5 defense next season

Jrue, Matisse, Toumani, Deni, Clingan. Not breaking 95 points but insane defensive lineup. All brakes no gas 😂

OH MY GOD @pdxbrocialite.bsky.social YOU WILL NEVER DIE

Random thought of the day… is Austin Reaves this gen’s Manu Ginobili?

Miss me with the win % stuff. Context matters. If you don’t understand that then you’re either dumb or willfully ignorant. We’re finally playing the type of ball we’ve been begging for because the guys bought into the culture that’s taken 5 yrs to develop. Why blow that momentum and start over?

Jerami I am begging you. Pass the ball.

😔

If we lose this game, the substitution choices by Chauncey over these last 4 minutes are the reason why. Having Shae and Ant out there for that extended stretch and then taking Rob out on top of that is puzzling to say the least

Don’t forget the point of this whole thing. Win games. The first step to winning games is believing you can win games. This team believes.

Can we not, and say we did? If we traded someone and then went cold y’all would be mad too.

There’s a lot of terrible shit happening right now, but gawd damn the blazers (and remix) have kept me sane recently. The vibes and energy have been so good lately. Let’s keep this shit going— play in here we come(!)

Well, well, well. Looks who's back in Hollywood.

!!!

LUCA DONCIC TRADED IS THE SECOND BIGGEST NEWS OF THE NIGHT BLAZERS WIN 7 OF LAST 8

There’s a noticeably different buzz in the arena tonight— you can tell there’s real belief we will (or should) win this game

Every single Orlando pass is at risk of being stolen. Somebody pinch me.

And the best part is, it’s not just one single player going off. Everybody has found their pocket at the same time.

The Blazers are playing beautiful basketball

I think trading Rob Will III is a mistake. His impact is much bigger than what’s on the stat sheet. He seems to be a hugely influential vet in the locker room (similar to Udonis Haslem with the heat), and in my opinion player development is a product of coaching AND vets.

* the blazers beat the heat

Someone free our boy. He deserves better than this #FreeBam

Heat getting booed in their own arena? Put that shit directly in my veins

BLAZERS ARE COOKIN 🔥

Blazers putting the CLAMPS on the heat right now. This is fun.

Whistle only working on one side of the court I see

blazers win??

That’s the type of game that makes ya want to fire up that same matchup on 2k and win one for the good guys

Have to give Ant props defensively tonight. That boy was playing HARD and still carried us on the offensive end. Clearly he’s taken some of the (justified) criticism personally, and we’re better for it because I think he’s a MUCH better defender now compared to just a season ago

Deni and Toumani have to be considered one of the best young forward duo in the league. Both two way dawgggs

FIRST TEAM ALL DEFESE 😤

Only one of these two guys played down the stretch tonight…

Lots to build on from that game. One particularly glaring issue— our transition offense cannot be where we turn the ball over. A couple 4 or 5 point swings from transition turnovers tonight that were real back breakers

Blazers will win or lose this game on the margins— but the defensive effort and performance has been (for the most part) pretty fucking fun to watch

Oh hey Greg

Look for me on the broadcast…

If this is how scoot is going to use his minutes they should go to someone else (Dalano). He’s looked bad (that’s being generous), and worse yet he kind of seems disinterested. Lazy passes, no emotion, just holding turbo until the inevitable ill fated jump pass.

Is Daniel Gafford this generations Tyson Chandler?
