    The Trail Blazers have swept the Kings (4-0) for the first time since 2009-10 (4-0). Portland has won six straight games in the series.

    I'm very high on harkless. I don't care about the contract, gotta resign him, so much more potential and he's already a beast.

    Yay! Harkless with the post game interview. Had never heard him talk much. I like him.

    I didn't really know him outside of his play on the court. The interview tonight helped me connect with him.

    Great game by Harkless and Cj but this game was way too stressful for nothing against a team playing for ping pong balls plus their second best player out

    Warriors have blown a 15 point lead and are only up 1 on lowly Wolves.

    Harkless is about to turn 23. Sign him up for a long, long time. If Vonleh can really get it going next year...man this team is going to be really good.

    That's also the leadership of Dame. He made a concerted effort early in the offseason to bring these guys together to establish those bonds, and so there wouldn't be as much time lost early in the season building chemistry.
