Fischer: NBA Insiders Expect More Changes After Portland Execs Dismissal

[Haakzilla]

I won’t be going until the pandemic is over

...over, over? What does that look like?

I'm in the same boat. When covid-19 is killing no more people per year than the flu I'll be happy to go to a game.

It's cool that you'll be going to games but every strain of the flu put together kills around 60,000 people a year in the US. Covid has already killed over 360,000 people this year and there's still a month to go. It's killing a lot more people than the flu... a whole helluva lot. That being said, I think if you're vaccinated and take the precautions that the team has put in place for game attendance, the games seem as safe if not safer than grocery shopping and we all have to do some of that.

Yes. That's all correct.
But I don't have to attend basketball games like I have to go shopping. So it's an unnecessary risk.

And I'm certainly not going to reward their decisions to offer limited streaming options by going to games.

Honestly I may not attend games if there aren't better streaming options even after the pandemic is over.

Eff 'em.

Dame / Ant / DSJ
Powell / Ant / McLemore
Simmons/ Little
Nance / Simmons / Brown
Turner / Zeller / Nance

A VERY solid 8 with spot minutes for DSJ. Go Trader Joe!

been listening to these guys since the summer and I think they’ve got a good pulse on the team. They have been largely negative until the Olshey firing but this one is actually hopeful. Now Dames agent tweeting and liking it is a good sign because its probably reflective of how dame feels about our current situation. Good stuff.

Highlights?

Highlights?

A lot of the feeling here. Also some trade talk.

An average of 2000 seats are empty for Blazer games…

The only time Moda had energy was for the Laker game — where it was 50/50 Blazer/Laker fans

2000? Was that above and I missed it? That is being VERY generous…… the arena has been SO empty this season. I’m guessing HALF empty tonight.

We don't need that kind of dumbassery anywhere near this team.

YOU RANG FAMS!?!

 

[KSF-ERIC]

What they need to do is send CJ’s ass to the bench.
Whatever you can get for Roco, Nurk one of Nas/Ant, and picks.

whatevrr we get for CJ won’t be as valuable as him in a vacuum, so might as well just bite the value bullet and have a way overpaid 6th man

CJ already is our 6th man. He starts, rests, then plays with second unit.

The sixth man in basketball is a player who is NOT a starter but comes off the bench much more often than other reserves, often being the first player to be substituted in.

You must be NEW.
