This is real sadness. Like what you’d expect to see from him if affordable housing were built in his neighborhood. – at Portland, OR

The @trailblazers are the only NBA team in the last 25 years with a 20-0 or better run to open a season.

I get why it happens but it’s very funny to me that every year people pick the defending champs to make the finals every single time when it hasn’t happened in almost a decade at this point.

Unpopular opinion: I’m excited for the impact of the NBA’s new anti-tanking lottery reform on the regular season. Teams like Brooklyn and Milwaukee are going to be trying in February, and will ruin some postseason teams’ seeding as they try to avoid the bottom four spots.

We’re so used to days in Feb/Mar when there are 10 games, and 8 feature at least one team actively trying to throw the game. Open your mind to the reality that that won’t happen now

Carrington played at the level of a player paying his team $20 mil a year to play for them. Incredible. (He was the centerpiece of the deal the blazers made for Deni lol)
Players with the worst contract value surplus relative to their impact last season…

One of the most Bill Simmons things ever: On his latest episode he unveiled a new NBA segment called “one guy,” in which he goes through each team and lists one guy he’s intrigued by. With the very first team in the segment he couldn’t help himself and had to name two guys.

My main thought on the Blazers’ preseason opener: “If only there were an ideal gif to send when people voice premature doubts about Ja Morant…”

Exactly the kind of news we want to continue making at a time when the on-court product is more exciting than it’s been in 8 years lol.
Braiden Bell — the play-by-play announcer the Portland Trail Blazers hired and fired on the same day after being notified of derogatory tweets he posted as a team — has hired counsel and is asking for reinstatement.

Saw a guy at the gym I’d never seen before struggling on a machine so I took the headphones off and said “hey man, you mind if I show you a trick with this?” He came up 5 minutes later and said “that really worked! Thanks for the advice” Reminder- It costs 0 dollars to be nice, and you can do it in a way that doesn’t shame people or make you sound like a condescending dick
