    Brodgon didn't make the cut. He's probably comparable to several of those guys in the mid-90s, so it's not a huge sleight I guess.

    The only target is the one he has on other people's balls

    So many comments on that tweet saying "That's just a reputation call!" and "Didn't look intentional to me"

    This is cool AF. 85 yo Lenny Wilkins still getting props from the fans. He was player-coach for the Blazers for a year.

    I think the play by play of that highlight shows exactly why him going to the Spurs is going to be the annoying thing in the history of the NBA.

    Sean Elliott.

    The Spurs new practice facility looks amazing. Ironic that the wooden ceiling is made from wood imported from an Oregon forest.

    The Blazers need an update to the Moda Center and the practice facility. I’ve been to both the Lakers and Clippers facilities here in LA and both are nice. I’ve been to the Blazers practice facility and it’s super dated compared to other ones in the league.

    We need new ownership that is not only willing to spend on the team, but is actually excited and motivated to spend on the team. Phil Knight would definitely be the game changer. I don’t think Jody/Vulcan are the worst owners in the league, they’re just indifferent that only do just enough.

    I was going to post that very thing. I know nothing about him, but he is 6'11". Worth a flier? Is anyone familiar with his game at Texas?

    Failing in Charlotte isn't necessarily a black mark for me.
