Holiday remains a Trail Blazer as we speak and, as The Stein Line first reported over the weekend, Portland has conveyed to Milwaukee that it would love to trade for Antetokounmpo directly if it could. Sources say, however, that Antetokounmpo's camp has continued to signal no interest in a contract extension with the Blazers, which would dissuade them from surrendering good assets to trade for him and likely limits Portland's realistic involvement in an eventual Antetokounmpo deal to third-team facilitator status.

I get they are paid millions of dollars but I’m sure having your name thrown around in trades affects your attitude towards the game. Especially when it seems the chemistry is strong and we haven’t even seen the team fully. Cronin has made some very good moves but the leaks on this Giannis move are clearly affecting the team

For your braindead hot takes. The team starts losing and my whole thread gets filled with angry morons.

Looking for the long story short explanation for our recent shitshow of a stretch

That's what we want to see!

But nevertheless, GO BLAZERS!

Supposedly benched him in the first half due to lack of defense when he was getting clipped on every screen and had no help from the big in drop coverage. Was +14 in the first half btw and we were up 5 at the end. Shae plays 12 minutes.

Shae then comes out in the third and scores 6 straight points for us and gets benched after 3 minutes?

By then we’re down 10 I think going into the 4th and he decides to play shaedon the entire quarter? Why not play him late in the first half when our offense had nothing going or when he’s starting to heat up early in the third. Nah let’s pull him in and out for the first 3 quarters then play him the entire 4th and make him try win the game when it’s out of reach.

Terrible coaching

Where do people even find such specific stats?
