It's still going to be tough to win without 2 centers.

Hi Orlando friends! Please send our Blazers home with much needed loss! Thanks in advance.

Sure. In return, please leave Simons behind.

Blazers missing their top 2 centers as well.

I personally hope to see Mosley experiment with Paolo at the 5 at some point. Probably a short stint thing, but it could be a lineup to play especially against smaller teams to jumpstart our offense.

Equally rooting for that tonight as well.

For what it’s worth, a sports insider in Portland who’s been a big Simons fan his whole career here said today that within the last week he believes it’s a real question if Simons is on the Blazers after the deadline.

With Scoot finally playing somewhat better and showing flashes, keeping Simons on this roster just makes zero sense and there may be more incentive now for Cronin to push forward with a Simons trade (Simons is also open to a move).

Portland has picked up like 3-4 more wins they shouldn’t have. The Miami game is the last game all year I’m rooting for a win on because **** the Heat. If the Blazers don’t win a single game the rest of the year, I would be happy.

Paolo played the 5 most of the last game because we only had him and Wendell.
