Game Thread 2026 PLAYOFFS RND 1 - GAME #5 - BLAZERS @ SPURS - APRIL 28, 2026 - TUESDAY - 6:30 - ESPN (5 Viewers)

[Chris Craig]

Dame must be having second thoughts now.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

this is ending up kinda like I expected it to. And now with no 1st round pick and the whole cheap ownership narrative, this is gonna be one boring ass summer.

Don't forget; we also don't have a second round pick in this draft.

 

[blazerkor]

Good

I just hope that he and Joe or whoever is putting together next season's roster understand that they won't be able to get fair value for Shaedon or Scoot right now.

We all see what happened when Washington gave up on a great prospect just one season too soon.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Only question now is how long after this game ends ( days ) until the first axe falls

I am predicting 3 days ( from tomorrow not counting today since pretty much over ) cause I do not think Tom is going to fuck around he is just going to want to clean house as fast as possible.

Predicting 3 days for Tiago and 5 or less for Cronin

 

[BBert]

Fucking announcers. "Even Wemby has a smile on his face!"

Huh? Why wouldn't he?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

DC getting blocked at the rim by a guard is way worse than Jalen Duren getting posterized yesterday.

Another embarrassing outing for DC.

Yeah, they like to rub it in don't they?

 

[Irish Trader]

Well when this season is over in another 24 minutes it will be interesting to see how the off season unfolds with new ownership. The moda center upgrade is not a done deal yet.

I just hope if Tom does do that, that he makes smart decisions on who runs this team next.

 

[BlayZa]

Clingan needs to drop 30lbs
if he isnt willing to lean up n speed up we just got another Nurk on our hands.
time is ticking.

 

[Sedatedfork]

As bad as DC has looked in this series, he has been playing against Wemby. Not exactly an easy assignment. I think I am fine trading away Sharpe/Scoot, maybe Sharpe more than Scoot. I would hold onto DC.

 

[illmatic99]

Dundon will clear house

can he fire himself?

 

[BBert]

That last foul Vassell had on Deni sjouldve been reviewed

I was going tosay, that's a fragrant. Not close to a basketball play.

 

[Irish Trader]

Even half time guys are are rubbing our nose about our cheap New ownership.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

I am not sure I buy the cheap thing on Tom but he needs to prove this rumor not true cause he is getting clowned almost as bad as the Blazers are right now.

 

[Chris Craig]

Clingan needs to drop 30lbs
if he isnt willing to lean up n speed up we just got another Nurk on our hands.
time is ticking.

We can send him to Milwaukee in the Giannis trade and get back Myles Turner with Giannis.

TBH if i was overspending on this group of guys and making sure they are comfy n emotionally happy with their support levels id be annoyed af with this effort.

 

[twobullz]

I hope what ever they do they bring in some shooters. Can't rely on just Dame coming back. RWIII and Thybulle are both free agents and gone. I personally am fine with Jrue, Grant and Yang all being Jettisoned. I think you have to choose between Yang and Clingan, but no way you can play both. I think Sharpe is still not 100%, Scoot showed a lot for the first few games. Hopefully Carmara grows from this series.

Against the Blazers, that's just defense.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Sooooooo... watching the jail blazer documentary on Netflix doesn't sound so bad now.

Sadly, it's pretty underwhelming. Seriously, you'd be better off watching a couple of All The Smoke episodes. They didn't put much money or effort into it.

 

[BBert]

Correction:

"Fantastic defense!!"

- Doris

Was our new owner the producer?

 

[blazerfan11]

I don't understand the Blazers setting up Clingan for 3-pointers. Why don't they just throw it out of bounds? At least they'll be able to set their defense.

 

[julius]

Don't forget; we also don't have a second round pick in this draft.

yay...

 

[twobullz]

Doris is fired up. How dare they call a foul on the spurs

 

[ehizzy3]

I guess Tiago told the team to just foul and make it a painful second half for the spurs

 

[Sedatedfork]

Mercy rule please

 

[Rastapopoulos]

It's funny, out of OKC and San Antonio, my intuition is to side with the Spurs.

BUT: the Spurs have 4 titles and those teams and this one are built around generational players that they lucked into. Meanwhile, apart from Holmgren, does OKC have another player taken in the top 10? And they put their roster together the right way, building patiently without luck and in a small market. Plus I like the fact that SGA is low-key. I even like the fact that he went with Converse for his signature shoe.

But better either of them than the fucking Lakers or Warriors, amirite?

 

[BBert]

Spurs are used to getting every call. So they just can't believe it when they don't
