Probably lol.

Joking a bit, but that's only because I'm wholly checked out of this entire NBA season. I'll care again in the summer.

Yeah, my reasons to tune in this season were:

1) Watch Scoot develop

2) Watch Sharpe develop

3) See how Ayton integrates

...without 1 or 2 or 3 happening with Scoot & Sharpe out, I find it pretty tough to motivate myself to watch.

Is it just me or is moda looking kind of old lately? Feels like we are 5 or 10 years away from needing either a face-lift or a new arena entirely

8th oldest arena, built back in 1995. But the older ones have all have had major renovations done in the last 15 years. Not sure current ownership cares.

I actually like Moda center a lot. Interior was nice, plenty of space and what i liked a lot was the areas of food/drink had lots of seating. I'm in San Francisco now and Chase center is brand spankin new, but it feels really tight inside.

Can we make a trade thread?! Or what do we use for talking about trades.

Is it this?

If the post is soliciting conversation, create a new thread. If it's some random thing like Rayan Rupert joining France's Olympic team or the Blazers picking up Camara's team option, this is the place to post.

POR has the Dame package.

MIA offering was not up to snuff.

Apparently both Perrin and Salaun have declared. I'd love for either to be Blazers. I think Salaun is only going to continue to rise...

Return to Portland Trail Blazers
