    Green hasn't quit the NBA to play in Puerto Rico and China yet. Those stats shouldn't count.

    I'd love to watch that, but there is no way I could stomach it with Lebron being in it. So I wont be watching.

    As a fan of the game of basketball, that is kinda 6th grade type shit. Like or not you need to respect greatness..... you do with ME. Also this from a guy that will actually watch OSU football games? Makes no sense FAMS!

    I definitely appreciate his greatness. Without a doubt one of the greatest of all time. But the guy annoys the crap out of me. His ego, the excessive flopping, constant crying to the refs, etc etc.
    And this isn't his fault, but the way the media thinks everything he does or says is newsworthy drives me nuts too.

    there's a couple rumors about Cavs trading Isaac Okoro. 6'6" 3&D wing. He's an RFA with 11.5m left. I guess he choked in the playoffs, so grumpy Cavs fans want to send him to the Pistons, Hornets, Blazers?? He's much too expensive for Cronin's budget.

    I’m going to say this, and I’m quite sure it won’t be the last time this season…..but let’s PLEASE all remember this seasons mission.

    Cronin's multi-layered tanking is confusing Blazer fans. Bring in Avdija, Clingan, then lower expectations?? It sounds like prepping a 2 way narrative.

    If the Blazers improve even slightly, the Front Office will look impeccable. Sign Coach Billups to an extension.

    If the Blazers crumble and everyone quits playing hard by January ... bring on the ping pong percentages!! The Front Office is soo smart, and Billups will get his "great with development" extension.

    If we play all the young guys as many minutes as possible we're going to lose a lot of games.

    We should definitely be doing that.

    We have proven vets who can help teams win 40 games... Those guys need to not play.

    Just an observation, Shaedon not active on IG. At least he nost posted recenrly. Saw him like Dame's recent posts though.

    One of his recent posts' caption from last Spring is "Let me remind you,"nas if he's saying don't you forget about me

    Hopefully this means he's been working this summer and a MIP season next year
