Blazers are the first NBA team to get a coach fired this year. Unfortunately the FBI will probably be responsible for the first one all together

runevault | Nuggets

really is impressive that despite such a big distraction the Blazers are still a solid team with all their youth.

Carcrusher3 | Trail Blazers

We’re also lowkey one of the more injured teams.

It might not sound like much, but down 4 guards we have basically 1 competent ball handler and it shows.

And its going to be like this for a month or two more.

Scoot is on week 7 of a projected 4-8 week recovery timeline, gotta hope he’s gonna be back in less than a month

couducane | Trail Blazers

Based on how long guys are out for us… it will be another two months

rtb001 | Trail Blazers

Deni has been getting more and more reliable as a secondary ball handler ever since Wesley went down, especially tonight.

So at least there is that.

Dsarg_92 | SAS

Deni has been outstanding for Portland.

Shame that the kids name will be associated with the Pelicans GM making a bad move. Has some positional awkwardness between the 4 and 5, but looks so promising

kazmir_yeet | Trail Blazers

Eh that kind of shit matters less and less. Surround him with athletic wings and keep a big boi on the bench for certain situations and it won’t matter at all.

Be the change you want to see in the world. No reason the offseason obsessives have to win.

His instincts with the ball are next level. Really impressed how quickly he was making reads off breakdowns.

Me with dry tears of joy and my hat in my hands:

Well, aw shucks, a promise is a promise. You all gotta fire Willie Green now, ya heard?

mm825 | Trail Blazers

Sharpe was ¹¹⁄₁₁ inside the arc. I liked what I saw from Queen but he can’t protect the rim.

Briguy_fieri | Pelicans

What if we take Willie Green

                              And move him over there?

I feel like all these games we have lost recently we would have won if we were healthy . Call me crazy but I think the blazers are actually good

I like the Pels announcers. They could be a lot worse.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

0 | 3 days ago

Really? I’ve always thought that while they definitely weren’t the worst commentators, they were some of the most annoying. At least the one guy who sounds like he’s on the brink of a meltdown every time he speaks.

Strong-Sample-3211 | Trail Blazers

19 | 3 days ago

I guess I just really appreciate non-homerism. I can’t watch a Warriors game to save my life.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

1 | 3 days ago

Me too, like I said they definitely aren’t the worst just annoying. And yes I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure Warriors announcers are widely agreed upon to be the absolute worst. I literally have to watch their games on mute, it’s so egregious.

BuildNuyTheUrbanGuy | Pelicans

They’ve been consistently the best for a few years now. The only other group that I like at all is Charlotte’s guys.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

1 | 3 days ago

Lmao of course you’re saying that with your flair lol. But as someone who isn’t biased against or for them for any reason, I can say they are some of the most annoying to listen to in the entire league. And I have league pass and listen to every single teams broadcast crew lol.

I’m glad you like them though lol that would suck to not like your own announcers.

BuildNuyTheUrbanGuy | Pelicans

1 | 3 days ago

I’ve never heard this take before. I’m pretty sure the sub would vote them top 3 if they listened to them before.

Our sub always gets people coming in and complimenting Joel and AD.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

0 | 3 days ago

I’m “pretty sure” you’re way off my guy. But hey ignorance is bliss keep enjoying it. One of your announcers is literally on the verge of a complete mental breakdown every time he opens his mouth, but go ahead and enjoy that lol.

BuildNuyTheUrbanGuy | Pelicans

1 | 3 days ago

Just because you don’t like them doesn’t mean other people don’t.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

0 | 3 days ago

The same applies to you my guy. Except one of us here is clearly more biased being a fan of the team while the other has no reason to care one way or the other. There are very few teams announcers I actually don’t like listening to, and they are easily one.

As you get older you’re going to start to get a more accurate view of the world and realize that your perspective on things is usually pretty small when you don’t have much experience to go on, which is the sense I’m getting with you. If you’re older than 20 I would actually be shocked.

BuildNuyTheUrbanGuy | Pelicans

0 | 3 days ago

You’re confused for some reason. I just said that other people like them. You acted as if that was some utter lie. You don’t frequent our subs or forums where other fans talk about them. Being biased has no input on that objective observation.

I’d agree. As im much older than 20. I remember when television went off at night. Not sure why that matters. Theyre are 80 year olds with absolutely horrible perspective.

SeismicRipFart | Trail Blazers

Yeah you need help buddy

Dusty_Negatives | Trail Blazers

Queen reminds me a bit of Grizz era Zbo. Not a lot of athleticism but good feet and very skilled. Fears looks like he’s gonna be a legit guard also. Was impressed w his first step and instincts.

Sheepman007

Queen good…. honestly the trade is becoming slightly more palatable (slightly). If it was top 5 (3 even) protected the Pelicans would be sitting great with the rooks they got in this draft

BuildNuyTheUrbanGuy | Pelicans

1 | 3 days ago

The next pick has nothing to do with is sitting great with the rooks we got in this draft.

Silent-Owl1023

It does tho bc you traded that pick for queen

Blazers aren’t great but even with the injuries we have we’re still at least good.

Which is A LOT more than we could say for the past 3 seasons

Accomplished-Run-108 | Trail Blazers

Blazers would be a top 5 team in the east
