Portland Trail Blazers Assistant General Manager Mike Schmitz was suspended for two weeks without pay. So....not a big fucking deal.

Yeah, I think he is pretty solid. He has had a few games where he made some mental mistakes, but overall, I think he is a pretty smart player who, like most, plays better with more minutes. Good defender, shitty 3pt shooter. Needs to fix that over the summer so that he is at least adequate at it.

I am one of the few who did not want new ownership. I appreciated the deep pockets that the Allens brought. I knew that type of money was hard to replace. It is humorous to me that a few of you who essentially wanted anyone but them are so quick to shift their disdain to Dundon. I should be the...

Based on how the fans around them are not paying attention...I would say it means nothing.

The Sun's schedule down the stretch is not easy. The Blazers may have had a chance for 7th if not for the losses to Philly and Dallas. But then again, I would not be surprised if they lost to the Pelicans. They need to get Grant and Shae back for the last two games of the regular season so...

Agree on Matisse. I love his game, but then he gets hurt, which causes me to think we will not resign him, then he comes back and plays well, and I want to keep him. But how much do we offer him?

Yep, this is my concern as well. Learn from the Phoenix owner's mistakes.

He said nothing that wasn't obvious to me, but nonetheless, he is entertaining.

Yeah, they will be rested too. Odd for a team at this point in the season to have 3 nights off in a row.

Thus, the reason I said "not a bust."

I am looking forward to the transition 3s from Dame after Deni pushes the ball down court.

The Joker is one of the greatest ever. It is really hard to evaluate coaches when they have a superstar. I feel the same about Nick Nurse (with Kawhi) and Mike Budenholzer with Giannis. I am sure they are decent coaches, but great coaches because they won a championship? Not sure if Splitter...

I do think the tempo they implemented hurts as well. On one hand, I enjoy it much more than walking it up the court, but they really should listen to the Wizard of Westwood: "Be quick but don't hurry."

Yes, that was my first thought; however, one can argue that with Deni starting, a Shae-Dame starting backcourt, with Scoot-Jrue backcourt coming off the bench might help the team more.

Scoot's passing is definitely his weakness right now. I don't think it is his vision, though. I have seen him make some incredible passes, and unfortunately, I think that hurts him. He thinks he can always make them. He forces too many passes. His shooting, on the other hand, is looking...
