@ShamsCharania This will be totally worth the meaningless competition people have been obsessing about when a star gets injured and misses the playoffs 👍

How the four-team tournament-style 2025 NBA All-Star Game is expected to work, sources tell ESPN:
- Two semifinal games up to 40 points, winners advance
- Finals game up to 25 points
Quick-burst competition, pickup ball-esque.

Its cool that the party who won't shut up about how America is run by shadow billionaire elites voted for the billionaire elite stacking the government with his billionaire elite buddies

Donald Trump names wrestling billionaire Linda McMahon, co-founder of WWE, as Secretary of Education.

@JMurrayWrld This is my first season in a while not using streaming sites to watch. Why? The Blazers launched a streaming service for a reasonable $120 a season. I’m sure there are lots like me who would happily pay to watch their local team for a reasonable price if such a product existed.

It’s hard to watch the nba. Like it’s that simple. It’s actively difficult to watch a game legally. It’s not rocket science

In your opinion, what’s the main cause for this? #NBA

The thing that worries me most about Scoot are the mental mistakes. Way too many times he loses his guy or isn’t where he needs to be. Obv he’s young but he’s on a team with tons of youth and he’s the only one that stands out to me.

@ShamsCharania Good. Dude is a clown. Good player but total douche.

The NBA has fined Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball $100,000 for offensive and derogatory comments in postgame interview on Saturday.

I’m Muslim. If somebody tried to bring the Quran into my children’s public schools, I would fiercely oppose it. Not only out of respect for other people’s faiths (or lack thereof) but also because making religion a political instrument corrupts faith

@rudygobert27 @RobertKennedyJr It’s always those who embarrass themselves publicly who choose to join the cult.

@CHold I know I’m in the minority but I like to see the best players in the world hang out and hoop and have fun with little to no risk of injury. They compete 82 games a year and that’s more than enough for me.

@avdijaszn @deniavdia8 @realapp @NBA_University @trailblazers Loved what I’ve seen from Deni so far this year. His ability to play fast, make plays off the bounce, and get to the free throw line is a skill set that fits so well in todays NBA.

Deni Avdija this season:
9.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3 ast, 1 stl
168 in minutes among starters, top FT%
Ranked #121 in the league on RealApp over Westbrook, Scoot, Zion & Bub Carrington
He’s been embracing his current role but retweet this if you want him to play more min

@SketchesbyBoze Me and my mom read the hobbit together when I was six…
English
saw someone say that The Hobbit is too difficult a book for teenagers, and I really think part of the problem is adults with such low expectations that they think kids can’t handle a book famously written for children.

@JustinVerrier Nobody giving Scoot love in this thread so I am going to confidently say he is a key part as well.
English
The Blazers have a lot to figure out about their future, but Shaedon Sharpe and Donovan Clingan are going to be key parts of it.

@tyefor Hard to argue Scoot and Ayton are worse now than the start of last season. Toumani and Rupes have consistently improved. Ant is the outlier to me. Has been truly awful to start the year.
English
I am firmly on team “fire Billups”. It has nothing to do with the wins/losses. The process has been horrific and almost every single player on the roster has regressed from their prior seasons.
English
@503Blazerfans They have a talent problem. The coaching isn’t great but a new coach won’t change much with the current roster.
English
I give credit where it’s due. In the games Portland has played well this year, I’ve gave them the credit. But I’m not the type to turn a blind eye to something that is very obvious
This team has a clear coaching problem and about every single fan can see that besides you
Danny Marang@DannyMarang
If you're going to litigate every single game as the point of inflection then you're in for a miserable time. If I went through your tweets, I'm not going to find anything positive about the way they've played this season? Nothing promising at all? Because all I've heard from Blazers fans outside of last night was this is the way they hoped last year would've gone. Seeing stuff from the young guys, playing hard and having some sort of identity starting to take hold.
English
@DannyMarang Coaching might not flip the L to a W but it could absolutely make a difference in the things that are within the players control such as effort and pride to not get embarrassed.
English
I am not and have never been an employee of the team. Don't conflate your ignorance with reality.
The thing that I have said and continue to say regarding Billups being the coach is that he's had them all pulling in the same direction and during a tank/rebuild that's the thing that matters. If that changes, then you make a change.
There's no amount of coaching that changes the outcome here- pretending otherwise is foolish.
JimmersArmy@onlysportsnow1
@Ben66Miller @DavidMacKayNBA Danny cannot be objective anymore because he’s an employee of the blazers. Also the advocacy that the team/billups should prioritize who’s better now rather than who the Gm said they are prioritizing should affect two things. The coach and the lineups/who starts
