The most BAFFLING re-bui-tool any team has attempted in the last 30 years. Park your young blossoming might be stars on the bench behind MID-OVERPAID{im being very generous here} vets jerking their roles and minutes while having NO CAP SPACE, keeping onto injury prone positive assets while not playing them and not firing a questionable coach at best 4 years later. There is more, there are so many more questions but the OBVIOUS THINGS that should have been done a while ago are still burdening this franchise. This is one of a kind situation. This has transcended furstration…we have officially entered a Lynch realm.
Toumani camara is going to get PAID in a couple years
Meanwhile, San Antone will use Atlanta’s pick to get Cooper and the league will ensure that every star eventually plays for the Lakers.
Great team effort again, everyone contributed in their own way, hope Deni and Scoot are fine
Shout out to the Ego death
TC was great despite shooting poorly. JG wasn't so good I thought Avdija should had his min
Love the wins. I do fear we are snuffing out young players long term potential
A Let’s Go Blazer’s chant broke out in the foyer post game and I got goosebumps! The vibes are immaculate
The team right now is fun to watch. I still feel we are headed for mediocrity long-term and that Cronin does not have the right approach. Hes made some good and some bad moves. Concerned about the future.
Great team win, and really has been throughout this streak. But we have to be honest. We're slowly hurting our young guys
We are going to have 4 L in a row, let's see how the team will be/play after that.
I legitimately think that a case could be made that Camara is the defensive player of the year. maybe that’s me just being a homer but that’s how I feel at this point.

I love our Lord savior Jesus Christ❤.. dream big and don’t put limits on people because God always provides… boomer Tim faith in Chauncey billups is paying off I love being wrong God bless everyone
Re No Trades, it also decreases the valuation of the young core. So decreasing the valuation of Vets and the valuation of the future core. Sometimes it is worth doing bad trades (for example, only one 2nd pick for Williams) for the potential/delta of increasing the valuation of other assets.
wait when toumani develop his offensive abilities – he is definitely going to be an all star
Well said concerning Camara’s adaptability. With his work ethic, if he can figure out his offense, he could end up being a superstar.

Why wouldnt the Blazers want cap space Summer 2026
Love that someone new steps it up each night. Not stoked Cronin didn't trade anyone, but man if we keep hoopin like this, it's hard to hold it against him to much. RIPCITTTYYYYYYY 🌹
Blazer wins are team efforts making it impossible for the opponent to focus on shutting down one player.
I love the 2 trades they’ve done for both Deni and Banton and I agree with Cronin to not accept anything less than a first for our vets because I don’t want to wait 2 years for them to be as good as the vets we’ve lost (if at all). When they are up for extensions, if their value has dropped, then we should be able to get them for less money or pick up a free agent that will replace them. So I’m a little concerned about the future but only mildly so. Right now we have great depth, which should hopefully sustain us when the inevitable injuries happen. While I was very happy to hear Cronin say that we would go for the play in, I am concerned about losing our pic to Chicago. So best case is to almost make the play in and then get lucky in the lottery or to actually get to the playoffs and hope the young guys continue to meet their potential.
Trading later can be beneficial, teams want to clear their books for the summer on ‘26. So, value will go up.
Their ball movement is immaculate right now.
I do not fancy myself a scout. I am not a high basketball IQ fan. But, honestly, the first time I saw Camara play- I thought “that guy has it” and I’m not alone. I think the whole fan base spit out their coffee. I start to wonder about his ability to handle stardom. What a pleasant concern to have. Thanks, Mike.
2 min mark. THANK YOU
Interesting that the Blazers are the second youngest team and the tallest. If nothing else they are fun to watch…
Toumani = Draymond Pippen Jr. lol
You're the Bomb, Mike! Have a Dlux wknd!!!
I love the way this team plays and they are a credit to the city. We should just enjoy it. No need to over think it.
if Blazers make playoffs, the Bulls get Portland's draft pick.
…. NBA conspiracy !! It started when the Lakers got Luka, and the league is helping the big market Bulls land 2 first round picks.
If they take care of the Lakers first then hornets,jazz,wizards,nets,cavs,76ers,celtics,thunder,pistons,warriors,knicks,Raptors;wizards, grizzlies,nuggets Celtics that's from now to 3-23 theirs three teams that are tough LAKERS, THUNDER,CELTICS the rest teams should be no problem if they beat Lakers, thunder they will have probably the biggest comeback in nba history ….cause after Houston beat them that was it before then it was bad ….GO BLAZERS
i wouldn't called those players "problem solvers". they are talented basketball players that plays with passion and pride
How many wins they need to make it to the playin?
I'm VERY glad we didnt sell low on Williams. He WILL be in the rotation
Finally the right rotation. Scoot, Shaedon and Clingan get backup minutes because they're still learning and developing. Make them EARN being a starter. Love Banton.
The three/3 road games vs. TWolves and Mon & Wed @Denver could well prove to be the toughest tests of 'new look' Blazers thus far.
Blazers are completely overvaluing assets
This streak is going to last for eternity and the blazers will make the playoffs and are good
Blazer fans enjoy the winning they are a good team.
