For your info, I'll be there doing a podcast at Media Day if you want to have any questions answered. Just thought I'd let you know. Hope some on here don't think I'm misleading possible new members or bragging forcing you to quit. Let me know.

From Joe Freeman:

The group interview portion of media day is scheduled to start at 11:30 a.m., when President of Basketball Operations Neil Olshey addresses reporters. He'll be followed by coach Terry Stotts, President Chris McGowan and Blazers players, including Damian Lillard, CJ McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic. We'll be streaming those Q&A sessions live on The Oregonian facebook page.

The day is a prelude to training camp, which begins Tuesday at the practice facility in Tualatin. One week later, on Oct. 3, the Blazers will play their first exhibition game, hosting the Phoenix Suns at the Moda Center.

They'd be broadcasting media day in an Israeli sports channel. Don't think it would be specifically about the Blazers but still interesting

I feel I need to keep them simple for people like you. Almost all 1 syllable words.

I thought that was just too funny actually.

Thinking Meyers will start out all quiet and tough like but in the end he will be bubbly and Meyers like....

Is this just a Blazers media thread? I can put these in the Around the NBA thread actually.

Look at that! No ad patch! Well, other than the Nike advertisement...
(Ugh that "Portland" typeface looks awful...)

It's titled "Media Day" not Blazers so why not?

So is Hayward that tall or is Horford that short?

So is Hayward that tall or is Horford that short?

I think Hayward's hair just makes him look taller than he is. His shoulders are a couple inches lower than Horford's. Gordo looks pretty jacked in that pic, though.

Yeah it's crazy because he was built like Layman as a rookie.

 

[blue9]

I think it's the latter.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

So is Hayward that tall or is Horford that short?

Hayward's hair is like two inches tall, and he's standing a bit in front of Horford to our angle.
