Because why the hell would he want to sign here?

Technically the Blazers could claim him off waivers with their trade exception. They are higher on the waiver priority list than any playoff team right now. Morris wouldn't have a choice.

Of course they won't though.
 
Respect to CP3. He stop running his mouth and just playing ball with OKC. A better leader for sure than Russ and PG.
 
In the NBA after you pick up the dribble yo get two steps after that so you don't count the left foot that he plants a step so he has to shoot or pass before the right foot hits ground and he did that so it's legal.

You get one step, but the step in which you gather the ball doesn't count and the step to go up for a shot doesn't count either, so theoretically you get three steps...the gather step, one free step and the take-off step. It's been that way for at least as long as I've watched basketball, which is since the 1980s.

So, I agree that that's a legal Eurostep, not a travel. He picks up the ball while taking a step, takes his free step in one direction, takes his take-off step in another direction and then is in the air.

The rule only designated that you get 2 additional steps before you have to something with ball and his case he did that.
 
The one team standing between the Blazers and the playoffs is the Memphis Grizzles.

They just lost their starting power forward, Jaren Jackson, for "weeks," maybe the rest of the season.

We are 3 games behind them, with 26 (them) and 24 (us) games left.
 
Imagine if Cuban is our owner. What would he do after that Gobert non goaltending call?

Grizzlies schedule is murder. They won't even be in the hunt by the end of the season. It's between Portland and New Orleans and unfortunately, NO has the tiebreaker. Luckily, our season ends against a Clippers team that will probably rest everyone.
