    I suspect the Ayton trade would have happened regardless of whether it was rolled into the Dame trade or not.

    That shit is so funny. Shaedon looks confused and asks if some of the other guys are actually scared.

    I'll eat my Chauncey crow tonight. He's got these guys playing defense and grinding out wins...3 in a row. Hard to win the first one back from a road trip and without Scoot and Ant...gotta love how this team is coming together. I can cheer for these guys up and down the roster. We have a great bench.

    Now what can he get us for Jerami, Malcolm, Tisse and maybe Rob Williams if the price is right.

    Yeah, gonna be tough, but we will see. Just glad we are playing some winning basketball. We have fight. There was a time not long ago when if the Blazers went down double digits late, they would pack it in. This team doesn't give up and I love that.

    Who says the mid-season tournament is meaningless?

    I know it's incredibly early (and Im only saying this for comedic purposes) but don't look now, but Portland has a better record than Miami AND Phoenix.

    And is only 1 game behind Milwaukee...Clearly this means....well, absolutely nothing.

    Grant with 8 boards tonight. This is the first game I have seen this season, seen a lot of hate towards his rebounding. Got to give props when props are due.

    Three in a row = 1.000 basketball. First 3 games don’t count.

    In the category of don't look now, just don't look at our upcoming schedule and enjoy that the next game is against these shitty Grizzlies.

    and overtime. Kinda weird for a rookie drafted late in the 2nd round (52) to be in during crunch time and overtime. Even weirder, I think coach thinks of him as a vet.
