    Here we are again. Two of the worst teams in the league. One with a clear plan on how to tear down and rebuild, vs your Portland Trailblazers. Good luck to everyone playing, and happy Boxing Day to those who celebrate

    Lauri Markkanen for not signing his contract until he could not be traded this year.

    Who's responsible for not replacing Olshey with Danny Ainge? Jody? Bert? Whatever--we're all gonna be complaining about the difference in front office philosophy and competence.

    I blame Brigham Young for coming up with one of the most uninspired and boring city names ever.

    Is it any worse than the thousands of cities that were named eponymously?

    I blame Jake Paul for ruining the sport of the day.

    That small leftover period of the year between Christmas and New Years...the taint of the year.

    Dammit, looks like we can't blame Chauncey.

    Wouldn't the recent passing of his late grandmother mean that she died twice?

    Or maybe she was just chronically late all her life?

    That would explain why Chauncey needs to miss two games.

    I am still going with the GM. Plus no way the substitute coach will get the blame, unless they win because reasons.

    In that case I'm blaming Chauncey's late grandmother.
