I am grateful for them trading Toumani Camara to our team. I love his hustle and defense. Thanks Ishbia!

Blazers winning big against the Jazz and having Scoot back was not on my list of expectations. I'm stoked it happened. Happy Thanksgiving!!!

The heart attack Blazers are back! This blazers team missed so many shots this game. But their defense and luck bailed them out at the end. Also toumani was so good for the blazers altering the game.

Blazers finally won a game!

“Recent media reports stated that Damian Lillard’s agent, Aaron Goodwin, called multiple NBA teams to warn them against trading for Lillard because Lillard’s only desired trade destination is Miami. Goodwin also made public comments indicating that Lillard would not fully perform the services called for under his player contract if traded to another team.

We interviewed Goodwin and Lillard and also spoke with several NBA teams to whom Goodwin spoke. Goodwin denied stating or indicating to any team that Lillard would refuse to play for them. Goodwin and Lillard affirmed to us that Lillard would fully perform the services called for under his player contract in any trade scenario. The relevant teams provided descriptions of their communications with Goodwin that were mostly, though not entirely, consistent with Goodwin’s statements to us.

We have advised Goodwin and Lillard that any future comments, made privately to teams or publicly, suggesting Lillard will not fully perform the services called for under his player contract in the event of a trade will subject Lillard to discipline by the NBA. We also have advised the Players Association that any similar comments by players or their agents will be subject to discipline going forward.”

I'm here praying to the Basketball gods that the injury is minor like what happened to Shaedon Sharpe last year.

All the Blazers had to do was hold on to the ball. Oh well, happy for Jabari.

As long as the Blazers aren't bullied into taking a bad deal.

lineup of Dame, Sharp, Brown, Grant, and Nurk is definitely an interesting 5

I think it an ideal lineup for Dame. Position 2 to 5 are all plus defenders, and each player is also not bad offensively.

I think the ideal trade for the blazers would be a three team trade.

Ant Simons + Portland's #3 -> Washington

Beal + Portland's #23 -> Boston

Brown -> Portland

Washington gets to rebuild quickly with a great player in Simons and with either Miller or Scoot.

Beal balances Boston's roster.

Brown is the defensive wing that Portland is looking for.
