Trying to think of ways we could get Bam… he seems like an even better fit (though obviously lesser overall talent) than Embiid who would cost less and seeing as Miami flaming out seems much more likely than Philly.
In a deal structured around Ant and Nurk for Bam, would you take on Duncan Robinson’s contract to fill salary and serve to decrease the amount of value we have to give up to get Bam, or would that be a dealbreaker?

this GM's goal is to make a .500 team. Impress the owner. Seem competitive AND stay under the cap. Skip hiring Frontline defenders, scatter shooters around the floor, and watch Damian sell tickets to fill the Rose Garden.

Coach said he thought the guys looked good. Blazers have lost 6 in a row and got completely clobbered in the 4th quarter. Somehow the guys looked good?? Something is not adding up.

Olshey was fired because he doesn't want to pay dame 60+ mil a year but instead want to pay more to other players like Powell and CJ to help him win. Cronin will pay dame but was instructed to not pay anyone else, while keeping a charade that they are still trying to win. This is purely an economic decision to be most profitable for the organization near risk-free.

I agree that Sharpe’s trade value is probably much lower than it should be, so i don’t wanna get rid of him if at all possible.
Do you think it’s possible we could get Mikal and Bam for a package including Ant, Nurk, #2 pick, maybe 2 future firsts, and salary filler (Nas, Keon, Knox)? A starting lineup of Dame Mikal Jerami and Bam would be insane. Maybe throw in Matisse to have an elite defense to pair with Dame’s offense. Sharpe and Cam off the bench plus whoever else we can get in the offseason, and/or whoever pans out between Watford Walker and Winslow. Mikal and Dame are friends, and Bam was teammates with Dame and Grant in Tokyo. Mikal and Bam are young enough to fit a future timeline too. I’d be willing to overpay for a lineup like that

What about a possible trade down with Houston? Say 2/3 to 5th where the Rockets send you the Nets 2024 1st. It's probably too valuable of an asset for Houston to give up, but you could then reroute to Brooklyn for Bridges (& Claxton) and they can actually tank next year. Getting their pick back in a deal like this could be worth multiple firsts.

they're telling us it was a really close game. They're telling us that the Blazers still have a decent chance to the playoffs. I feel like the Portland's aggressive positivity PR campaign is punking Blazer fans right now.

Regarding Dame, if you trade Sharpe it means you are focusing on building around Dame. The Blazers don't have assets to build around Dame. They would throw away any future in the attempt. That's what I get from Gray's comments.

Why do you two spend two hours bitching and complaining everyday?
It sounds like you’re all in on tanking the rest of the season yet you bitch & complain when they lose.
Blazers win last week and Dame scores 71 points and you are angry for two hours about the roster they put around Dame.
You two might be justified in complaining but do you ever ask yourself what it would take for you guys to do a show without complaining?
It’s not the blazers playing a perfect game or the blazers winning the game I’m curious because you two trigger the shit out of me.

13:17 Chauncey’s complete annihilation of Sharpe’s development as a player has been my biggest frustration this year.
I understand he isn’t great running an offense or teaching defense. But this was supposed to be his calling card. He was supposed to be a players coach. However he is failing in the exact area he was supposed to excel in.

To clarify the Haynes stuff… he said on his podcast on Sunday that the team decided to have him sit out against the Pels, and that he would have played if he had the choice but that he expected him to play vs the Knicks. He had a storm delay on 620 but eventually was able to go on and said something to the same effect… essentially that the way these things work is that the medical teams have all the power in these situations and are usually pretty conservative, and that as a result players usually lie about their injuries. I think he said that all just to imply that it wasn’t out of the ordinary for the medical staff to have him wait it out for a game once they knew he was dealing with something

First quarter was amazing. Second quarter made me worry. But second half ... here we go.
Thybulle was great. Reddish... i don't know, seems that you guys been right about him. Now he have ball in his hands but still same problems like before. Very inconsistent. And what i personally hate is lack of effort especially in defense.

This thing could get out of hand for us very quickly. We play the Celtics and the Clippers, and then have until next Wednesday before playing the jazz on the road. Between now and then…
NOP: @ Rockets, @ Rockets, vs Spurs
UTA: vs Celtics, vs Kings
LAL: @ Rockets, vs Mavs, vs Magic
DAL: @ Spurs, @ Lakers, @ Grizzlies
OKC: @ Raptors, vs Suns, @ Clippers
If we lose both of those games against the Clippers and Celtics, I think it’s very likely that by the time we play the Jazz, we could be behind NOP by 4.5, LAL by 4.5 or 5.5, DAL by 3.5 or 4.5, OKC by 3.5, and UTA by 2 games. In this scenario, we’d be behind the 10th seed by either 3.5 or 4.5 games. And then if we lose on the road to Utah… that could become 4 or 5 games, with us no less than 3 games behind the 12th place Jazz with 11 games left. And this is assuming that all of these teams lose to good opponents (Kings, Celtics, Clippers, Grizzlies). If things go our way, or even just generally as we’d expect them to go, the franchise could easily find themselves fully embracing the tank with about 10 games to go… just in time for the Chicago game. The next week will be critical

Eric this isn’t an attack on you at all, it’s a general concern and questions that I think should be asked. That said can we be real about Brandon Miller? Yes he’s a phenomenal player but does that make him above the law? He can claim it was a one time mistake or wrong place at the wrong time but if anyone who wasn’t a star basketball player did what he did they’d be in jail for accessory to murder. Without him the whole situation could have been avoidable and yet he still gets a pass, why? After all the Ja stuff going on and being a franchise that had been called the jail blazers for years, we need to stay far away from players with a wanna be gangster attitude. Think about the family of the woman, when they see this guy playing basketball and on his way to making millions when they’re Daughter would be alive to raise her now orphaned child had Brandon not brought the gun. We can hope he turns his life around but if he can get away with delivering a murder weapon without any charges, will he ever learn from his mistakes or just learn to buy his way out of trouble?

Between the Thompson twins and Miller, how would you rank them and how big do you think the gap is between them? And how about with Jarace vs Hendricks vs. GG? Based on how things are projected to go now, I could see trade-back scenarios regardless of whether we move up to 3 or 4 (trading down to 5 still guarantees you get one of the Thompsons or Miller) or if we stay around 7th or 8th (giving up Jarace to take Hendricks or GG instead)

Thanks for the episode. The team needs rebuilding but with Jody, Cronin and our trade actives, it's really hard to do in this situation. I don't have a problems with Ant, but he is not ready yet to be a second star in winning team. Jerami is disappointing. Last few months he is just bad player with big role. No impact on defense, no impact on offense. Shaedon is a long term but his first year wasn't so impressive. I actually like when Shaedon played together with Payton, it seems that they had great chemistry. Shaedon is still raw, sometimes lost but with huge potential. Nurk is out of shape now but when he's healthy, he's decent versatile center and I doubt that we may trade him. Eubanks is a bench warmer. Watford i don't know. Somehow he need to get stronger, more athletic and play better defense, offensively he is good player with high IQ and it seems that he is a great guy for a locker room. Nas... I gave up on him.
Reddish and Thybulle it depends of how much we will pay them. If we pay them like 5-6 millions per year that's great in my opinion. Thybulle play defense, Reddish getting better and i just believe that in rite system he will shine. If we are tanking i want Jabari Walker to have more minutes. 5 second rounds over Wiseman it's a huge loss in my opinion.
Chauncey was so good as a player and he seems to be a good man but as a coach he seems to be lost and he definitely need experience because he seems to be lost.

As an Auburn fan, in these predictions, people are not putting enough emphasis on the location of the first 2 rounds being in Birmingham. Auburn can compete with anyone in the country on their home court. I was very pessimistic about our chances to make a run or win a single game until I saw the matchups and the location. I think we can and will beat Iowa and Houston. I think we match up well with both teams. Auburn, Iona, and the winner of A&M/Penn State are going to be the 3 Cinderella teams. Auburn and Iona make Sweet 16 and I think The winner of A&M/Penn State makes it to the final four which I believe will be A&M.
This is coming from an Auburn fan so its probably just my Auburn bias and SEC bias but I don’t think my prediction is all that crazy

Question for you boys. You two are the best available resource I know i can reach out to regarding the cap so first of all I appreciate that. I have fanspo questions for either of you though. Why are their cap hold for players who are no longer on the team? Are the holds for players like Swanigan and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson able to be dropped and if not, what is the reason?
Also when it comes to sign and trades and the hard cap, do you have to be under the hard cap, before during and after the sign and trade is happening or does it just matter where your salary is at after the trade/trades are finalized?

I don't know if you can trust Cronin to draft rookies that can help us. We had the 46th pick, we didn't draft Vince Williams Jr which was crazy of Cronin not to do. And Cronin, this is factual likes raw upside players and developing them into NBA ready players. Cronin wanted Josh Minott, and when he wasn't available he simply gave away the 46th pick to Denver. We have five 2nd rd picks, but Cronin might draft 5 one and done players. Getting rookies who can contribute right away, that rarely happens in today's NBA for obvious reasons. The best talent, you know the 5 star recruits, are one and done players and we find out some of them are just too raw, they need time to adjust to the speed of the NBA. The prospects who spent 3-4 years in college are usually not the most talented who also have holes in their game.
The map for us being contenders this season was there. They should have drafted Vince Williams Jr with the 46th pick, they should have signed either Luka Garza or Kyle Alexander after summerleague was over, I prefer Luka. The fact that they were starting Josh Hart at the 3 is just proof we were lacking depth at small forward, but Cronin signs GPII who was not ready to play and got us hard capped. Signing GPII blew up in their faces. We give Nas an extension, we are barley using him. After this season is over, it looks like to me they are going to sign Reddish and trade Nas.

They should have drafted Vince Williams Jr with the 46th pick, they should have signed either Luka Garza or Kyle Alexander after summerleague was over, I prefer Luka. The fact that they were starting Josh Hart at the 3 is just proof we were lacking depth at small forward, but Cronin signs GPII who was not ready to play and got us hard capped. Signing GPII blew up in their faces. We give Nas an extension, we are barley using him. After this season is over, it looks like to me they are going to sign Reddish and trade Nas.

What was with the lineup on the floor for the last play? Why not 5 best shooters since any bucket wins? Woulda loved to have seen a lob to Shaedon at the rim but guess mastermind Billups had better ideas than winning ones. 🤦🏻♂️

The rebounding issue is a lack of agressivness. Hart is not an elite athlete nor big enogh to be rebounding like a center, but he knows what 8 rebounds a game bring to the team and he wills himself to fight with bigger guys to grab them. He's an awesome player.

There is a bunch of young talent on this Portland team… You don’t develop young talent by teaching them to lose. Even if you tank the season you’re not guaranteed to win the #1 overall pick. And even if you do win the #1 pick, you’re still going to have to develop that person to play in the NBA. And there’s no guarantee that the #1 will thrive in the NBA. What am I saying? Develop the talent you have no matter who’s on your team. You may discover that you have a superstar in the rough… Don’t believe me? Ask Dame.

Before leaving NY, Cam sat for 2 months straight without touching for 1 second an NBA court. They are playing him all those minutes so that he can get his conditioning back to where it should be. They’re not worried about any mistakes that he may make. They just want him to get his feel for the game again. All things considered, Cam is doing quite well. If you guys are so desiring that Portland tank the season, then why are you so upset that they’re giving Cam so much playing time? 🤔 It’s obvious that they have a plan to unlock Cam’s full potential which is going to take a little time. But you wait, when it’s all said and done you two will be singing Cam’s praises and regret that you ever spoke a word against him. Not every player develops the same. Some players get put in situations where they immediately are given the latitude to develop and make all the mistakes they want until they become fully acclimated to the NBA level. When Cam came into the NBA he was not afforded that opportunity. Not to mention that Cam is a good kid. You don’t hear a bunch of negative press about him. That alone makes him someone you can take a chance an invest in his potential. If they didn’t give up on Markell’s Fultz, then it’s no way Cam Reddish should be kicked to the curb. Just wait… the best is yet to come!

Okay hear me out… if we got 1 and SAS got 2, would swapping picks be the worst idea? What if we could get Scoot Vassell Collins and a future pick for Wemby (and Keon + Watford)? That would leave us with Dame/Ant/Vassell/Grant/Nurk with Scoot/Sharpe/Cam/Tisse/Nas/Collins off the bench. But we wouldn’t have to stop there, we could still see who we can get for Ant/Nurk/picks. Maybe Embiid wants out? Maybe the Heat blow it up and we could make an offer for Bam? Think about a hypothetical lineup of Dame/Vassell/Grant/Bam with the option of Tisse/Sharpe/Nas/Cam in the starting 3 spot depending on fit with the other starters. The other 3 come off the bench along with Scoot and Collins. That roster would be no more than one move away from contending. And after Dame and Grant, Matisse would be the next oldest of the remaining 8 rotation players at 26. Scoot/Sharpe/Bam (or whatever center we could get for the massive package we’d be able to send out) could be dominant for a long time.
Even with all that said, I’d feel extraordinarily uneasy about sending away Wemby. But given how much the Spurs love him, I can’t imagine they wouldn’t give us an offer worth looking into

This isn't Dames fault at all but, this is where he hurts us. He is too good to allow the tank. Id bet Dame is urging Chauncey to let him play as much as possible to try and make the play-in. Winning these games does nothing positive for us. I love his mindset but, winning these games doesn't help our team in the short term or the future. It hurts both. Frustrating...

You’ve talked before about needing to choose between Cam and Tisse, but I’m curious if there’s a way the numbers would work out for us to keep them both while remaining under the tax. By my math, their qualifying offers plus $27m for Grant in the first year of his contract would bring us to just under $155M, which would leave us more than $7m under what I believe the luxury tax is supposed to be, with 13 roster spots filled (which is all assuming we don’t hold onto Knox but give spots to Badji/Butler or any other minimum players). Bringing back Eubanks + Winslow would easily keep us under that at 15 spots. Obviously we’ll be making changes to our roster, and where our draft pick ends up would significantly change the calculus, but if we end up with something like the 7th pick again then it seems perfectly reasonable that we could stay under the tax, right? Especially if we only need 14 roster spots and could also start the season above the tax and duck under at the deadline if things once again don’t work out…

I want to see all of Watford’s minutes with Jabari. I think their strengths complement each other, with Jabari hopefully becoming a perimeter threat who’s an excellent rebounder while Watford’s a good interior playmaker with his handles/passing/floater, so I’d be interested to see whether that chemistry is something we could capitalize on long-term

The worst part about Jody as our owner is it’s not even her money! Paul Allen signed to the giving pledge that 99% of all his money and assets would go to charity, so far they sold off his art collection and took the money and donated it to… the Paul G Allen foundation! It’s been 5 years and his wealth has only grown after his death. I don’t know what it will take for her to sell the team but I don’t think it will happen soon as long as she’s making money without spending any, why would she ever give up a cash cow that she can so easily ignore?

Matisse wasn’t a horrible 3 point shooter in college, and I know he did some work with Beckner to improve his perimeter shooting, so maybe now that he’s here and he has the green light he’ll start to get more consistent. I think the difference with Hart was that, even though we gave him the green light to shoot, his unwillingness was internal because he was overthinking his role while sharing the court with superior offensive players. Thybulle, on the other hand, seems to be fully capitalizing on the green light that he’s been given and isn’t overthinking whether or not he should take those open looks

Im a golden state fan but I always followed the blazers since the B-Roy days. You guys were down 2 starters so maybe when the team gets back ANT and NURK the play will improve . I think the blazers are missing a elite SG. I always thought Bradley Beal would be the perfect guy to pair with Dame. On another note i always felt like dame shouldn’t have been taking max deal after max deal . I understand he deserves it but Portland isnt a free agent destination unless the money is there for a max . Dame should’ve took a pay cut years ago so the front office can offer another player the max . I hope im not offending any blazers fans , its just that i always admired the trailblazers team.
You guys are lucky to have 2 centers. We only have 1 and hes 6’9 . Id be grateful to have Eubanks lol

Been a lurker for a long time, probably since 2020.
But take my advice for what it is, but I really recommend keeping the attention on negative nancies down an entire notch. Someone comes in to troll? ignore them.
Someone comes in saying X Podcast is better, ignore them.
Someone has a differing opinion? Instead of calling them out in separate chats, either debate, or ignore.
Pretty much, ignore trolls, s*** talkers, and people just coming in to disrupt the show.
When the attention moves from the topic of the podcast to some random stranger it really is a detriment to the stream and the show. I say this out of constructive criticism and love, no harm intended. You guys get a number of viewers now that the backlash with viewers will get recognized and spread. continue what you guys do best, and that is talk great knowledge of blazers and basketball in general.

I just caught a video that is 8 days old by thunderxp The Most Interesting Offense In The NBA. 9:50 long. How can I get that to Chauncy and make him watch it. The situation with the Blazers right now just isn’t the kind that Chauncy is good at solving. In fact, I don’t know what is. Sometimes you need a coach who goes ballistic and tells players what to do with no flex, but I don’t think Billups knows what that would be. Ugh…
Ownership that isn’t into hoops. GM that has no talent for his critical position. A coach that needs five more years of experience to know how to be a great head coach. To get any enjoyment out of my job as a faithful fan I just have to stop caring and live in the moment cuz I don’t see anything you could measure as success ahead without blowing the whole thing up. If Dame moves on, which he should, I’ll go with him.

I agree with most of the things you guys said today. Great first half turn to a worst game of the season. I feel your pain. Today we must win Pelicans. I still believe because we have Dame but if we lose again i will lose my hope too.
Jerami Grant is awful last 2 months. Today he must be our second option but he wasn't better than Cam Reddish who was also really bad, yes.
Keon Jonnson is absolutely useless. Probably a worst player in the league.
Mattis is really good. He is great defender. I like him as number two. And seems to be a decent three point shooter.
Only one thing i don't understand. Why you guys believe in Ant ? He is good player, we missed him today yes but if we want to build a contender we can't have Ant as number 2 around Dame. We need a real star. In my opinion Paskal Siakam is perfect fit to us.
Lillard - Thybulle - Grant - Siakam - Nurk (Ayton or Turner is better)
Ant is 6th player.
I like it but it's unrealistic.
We don't have rim protector. Drew Eubanks is a good guy but he is not NBA caliber center.
So many guys play out of the position. And Chauncey... I don't know what to say about him.
Thanks for the episode. It was very informative and constructive.

Fire Chauncey now, we have a great head coach on the bench in Scott Brooks, lets see what he can do with 20 games left and evaluate him at the end of the season but keeping Chauncey is no longer an option.

Anybody that thinks Eubanks is better then Nurk is not a true basketball fan. They don't know enough about the sport. Chauncey is not a coach, he's too laid back.

It's funny you mentioned all those Portland media guys vouching for Eubanks. It's reminds of me reddit. The worst opinions are upvoted all the time and it just seems like there is a collective rise of stupidity or lowing of the IQ if that's what you want to call it. It's all over reddit in every sport and every non-sport topic I grew up on message boards and it was never this bad. Usually the majority would come to a reasonable consensus, but on reddit the worst ideas gain traction while anyone offering a semblance of logic, rationality, and factual information is downvoted and attacked. It's much deeper than basketball and it's just unfortunate.

I don't understand how you can play great one half and be so pathetic in the second half. Why is our best defender thybulle not on the court when they got hot he needs more than 25 minutes.

People being mad at you for having an opinion is dumb. You should be able to be “negative or positive” all you want at the end of the day it’s your CONTENT. We are here to see your OPINIONS. If you think about it this is like a Time Machine we can comeback to these videos and see how we felt at this point in the season. Also this stream is to help vent express and release your emotions it’s good for ya. Blazers aren’t good rn and that sucks, west is still open and there’s still a chance to do something.

What people do not understand about Jusuf is he is not a good defender but he gives us a chance grabbing offensive rebounds and when everything goes bad no one can shoot you can rely on him getting you buckets near the rim which keeps us at least on striking distance to win games thats why all this years we have those buzzer beaters from dame because every game we have a chance but now we lose that

winning games hurts the team. Blazers need to put Simons back in the starting lineup so the defense turns into garbage.
1:48:27 “if you’re feeling Tanky” is my new favorite phrase
1:17:52 “We already suck and now we suck. Extra hard” 🤣🤣🤣 you’re killing me Torey!
1:14:48 “Shoutout to those of you who listen” 🤣
Wish we kept Kris Dunn. Absolute Dawg on D!
I'm convinced half the blazers fanbase drink a whole lot of lead. Don't drink lead kids, it makes you extremely and irrevocably stupid. This was a devastating win for our chances to ever be better than the 20th best team in the league. Until Jody sells the team, until the fanbase wakes up and gives an actual shit. Until Dame restructures his contract because he's sucking up way too much cap...until until until. This franchise has a ton of ground to cover to be good again and instead of taking the first step they are using dame to sell tickets and suck a whole lot of ass.
I’m glad you brought up Dyson Daniels, because I was just thinking about how Black seems like a similar prospect. I haven’t scouted Black a ton, but how would you say he compares to Dyson last year? I’m not as high on Black as I was on Dyson, but I’m not sure if that’s influenced by how much I came to like Dyson from how composed and mature he was in his interviews
What you guys think of Jaylen Brown? 1 year left..UFA…I can see Boston trading him off-season or next year. Boston don’t want to get burned like they did before with rozier and Kyrie leaving for nothing.
Simons, nurk, 2 first rounders, enough to get the deal done?
I was rooting as hard as anyone for a loss tonight, but I still find it hard to be too upset about this win. It would be one thing if Dame went supernova and there was nothing else to be positive about, but our young guys looked promising and cohesive. And I get that we still could have had that in a loss, but i think we should have all expected we’d win at least a couple of these games down the stretch and baked that into our expectations. The magic have been winning games they shouldn’t have been, and even the pacers won last night. Moving up to 5th would be a bonus, but we’re still losing at a better rate than I’d expect any Dame-led team to do, and I think it would have been hard for the FO to justify shutting him down anytime before now. Still upset about the loss, but got enough happiness from how our youngsters played to balance that out
I appreciate the shoutout for my comment from the other night. I always listen the following morning since I wake up early for work and lowkey forgot you can’t skip when listening live lol but the point stands that nobody is forcing people to listen start to finish… I’m not a lawyer, but I *believe* it’s perfectly legal for them to stop listening after you shift over from monologuing to chat engagement if they don’t enjoy that part of the streams. And as someone who listens to other Blazers content creators and media members in addition to this channel, I can say with full confidence that you go into a level of depth that nobody else does and that I’ve learned a ton as a direct result from your engagement with myself directly as well as other members of the community who have the same questions/misconceptions that I did. Hopefully people can realize that you don’t enjoy responding to trolly people and this probably isn’t something that has a massive impact on how many views these videos get anyways, but that you suffer through those comments out of genuine passion for educating the community. I appreciate all the work you guys put into this, and despite the occasional comments recently criticizing your methods, I’m sure most people feel the same way I do. Keep it up!
