    Skylar Mays just signed a 10-day with Portland. He was playing in the G-League on one of those G-League teams. Skylar was a Hawk back in the glory days of 2021.

    I just learned Keon Johnson broke his finger this morning. Can't make a go tonight vs. Kings.

    Portland called up Mays. Let's see what he's got !!

    Can he really be considered a Blazer on a five day contact.

    Between this and Douglas Fur I'm positively giddy with Blazer fanaticism.

    Yes, we may have completely lost relevancy in the league in the last two years; but at least we found Douglas Fur… Or did he find us? I’m not sure.

    Giving a new player a tryout and getting a look at him on the court is definitely more interesting than watching a 30-point loss every night.

    Better than the Trail Cat. Has the cool creepy Gritty quality. Mascots are dumb in general, and I'm not a fan, but might as well get weird with it.

    I'm glad to see that we are upgrading the tank, even if it is for just a few days. That last game the tank was treadless.

    Friendship ended with Skylar Mays. Now Shaquille Harrison is my best friend.

    I would guess that this is an attempt to show we are not intentionally tanking; the actual result will most likely be the opposite.

    It's doubtful Portland will get away with deliberately tanking. If there is a fine distributed, we won't hear about it for awhile. It might take a month or so to be "investigated".

    Skylar scored 14 points in his Blazer debut.
    The other new guy had 6.

    end result : Blazers didn't lose by 40 tonight
