Josh Hart finally sitting. Guy was playing like he was up for a new deal this summer, I’m glad they finally took him out.

They need to do more to get the loss. Going to be hard to secure the loss against a 19 win Pistons team that
also wants to lose.

Detroit out tanking us is so annoying. We’re soooooo close to the 5th pick I can taste it and Detroit is major **** blocking.

So far it doesn't look like it was enough for the tank. My solution? The Blazers need to sign me for the rest of the season and make me the starting pg. I guarantee we wouldn't win another quarter let alone another game.

Interesting if you go over to the Pistons board, they are talking about Portland sending the CJ TPE + the NO
pick and Bledsoe to the Pistons for Jerami Grant. Like us, nobody is interested in tonight's game for both
teams want to lose.

I still dislike trading for Grant for he will still want an extension for $112M/4 and I'd rather they just draft
Murray, who they'd have under control for five years on a rookie deal.

Assuming we pick where we are now I would prefer to just take Murray and Duren over trading for Grant. The most I would offer for Grant is our 2nd Rd pick and the CJ toe. I see Grant as more the type of player you bring in to fill a hole in the roster on a team that is near contender status already and just needs a little bit more to advance.

I’d much rather have Mathurin or Duren to go along with Murray than Grant. He’s a completely different player than he was before Detroit, no motor, injured, wants to be the star and stat pads. I do not want that on the Blazers.

CJ needs to be getting 42 min/game, and I love starting him at the SG like we did tonight.

Wow. What a difficult game to watch. I’ve never seen 2 teams trying to lose so bad with the score this close before.

Two Tanks just crashing into each other.

On the plus side as far as games other than ours that affect our potential draft picks Lakers won ( Lakers wins mean more likely we get the New Orleans pick) and New Orleans lost.
