    Sounds like the neighbor is trying to correct the situation. Did not realize I was blocked by Nurk until I tried to read that? Not sure exactly why he would block me? maybe at some point he blocked Portland type accounts?

    It would be so difficult to have to wait 20 years (almost) to bring an NBA team back.

    The NBA really fucked this up. Charlotte, ffs, waited 2 seasons, to get a team back after the original Hornets left.

    2 years.

    The NBA does not seem to like or care about the PNW. Just take Dame for example. Dude was killing it in Portland for a decade plus and then goes to Milwaukee and has the worst season of his career and gets the All-Star starter nod. The NBA knows this is the Siberia of sports. Nobody is up late enough to watch us.

    LOL did they offer any explanation for why the Blazers would get Luka?

    I noticed that too. Finally out of shitsville, and they can show just how awesome he was suddenly (tho like you said, he's having a down season compared to the last 8).

    It just goes to show the NBA don't give two shits about us, but it REALLY shows just how badly Olshey fucked things up.

    He also wasn't up against Luka or Steph or SGA, which helped his cause. The West has had some really really good point guards over the last... what.... 15 years?
