    My guess is they'll be no valets for olshey, so he told Jodi to vote no.

    Seems logical.

    Could be more Management knowing certain players and wives wanted to enjoy a summer before next season starts. Orlando in June July August September is life sucking humid and Tornado's pop up then Hurricane season.

    Probably also the valet thing, though.

    I would guess it’s a protest vote over how much the system favors Memphis vs what they would have faced in playing out the regular season. The Blazers had an easy remaining 16 game schedule while the Grizzlies had a brutal one. This system makes the 8 games pretty much even in strength, gives fewer games to play catch-up, and gives them an advantage in the play-in format with it being double elimination for the 8th seed, but single elimination for the 9th seed. I’m sure that the Blazers wanted a 4 team mini tournament for 8th seed and feel like they have been hosed. As usual.

    Agree. This sucks, we went from having one of the easiest remaining schedules to an absolutely difficult schedule, meanwhile, the fucking Grizzlies avoid their most brutal part of their schedule. Fuck Corona and Fuck the NBA

    We were 4 losses behind Grizzlies with next game against Grizzlies. If we had lost that, it probably would’ve been it. Under this format, we don’t have to catch Memphis to get in.

    We wouldn't have lost that game, and we wouldn't have lost the 2nd game against Memphis. 100% sure
