Reech - Republicans, have you no shame?

@ShadowA10682512 @angel_0f_deathx You either have body autonomy, or you don't.

@Zieno23341577 @Tdub48864 @UnderdogNBA @JakeLFischer To be fair, a lot of our actions led to turnovers, but yeah.

@PDXReech @Tdub48864 @UnderdogNBA @JakeLFischer That sidelines out of bounds play he runs with Toumani inbounding to sharpe who cuts under the basket to get open near the side is not it, multiple games I have watched it get intercepted or knocked out of bounds, sometimes leading to a turnover 🫩

Tiago Splitter unlikely to land Blazers’ full-time head coaching position, via @JakeLFischer. Portland hopes to interview upwards of 30 coaches for the role.

@Zieno23341577 @Tdub48864 @UnderdogNBA @JakeLFischer Just getting the ball inbounds has been fraught with peril. 🫣

@Tdub48864 @UnderdogNBA @JakeLFischer Bro didn’t graduate school because what else do you think I meant. Look at every teams ATO success rate and compare Tiago, he is at the very bottom.

@blazerwagon We're not getting him for the MLE.

Rui Hachimura is an upcoming unrestricted free agent, and Portland could have access to the Non-Taxpayer MLE worth around $14-15M. A lot of fans want that money used on Rob Williams, but if the Blazers somehow move off Jerami Grant… would you be interested in going after Rui ? Deni and Rui already have chemistry from their Wizards days too 👀

@DUANEINGE @PhilNvestigates We'd pass a law to prevent gerrymandering anyway.

This is not good, right?

@NotHoodlum So gross.

While regular Americans struggle with the price of gas, groceries, car payments, utilities, and mortgages, Cracky the Clown is posting gold statues of himself. Calling him out of touch is the understatement of the decade.

@MoneyYang15 @SleeperBlazers Konnor gets it.

@SleeperBlazers Mpj doesn’t defend and Yang won’t be traded

The Blazers don't need to trade for a superstar. They already have one in Deni, and another coming back in Dame. What they need is smart upgrades around the edges. A Michael Porter Jr trade could be the perfect fit. He's a great shooter with championship experience, who doesn't need a high usage rate. — Plus he's on an expiring contract. Could you imagine Deni having the kick out options of Dame & MPJ? Who says no? 👇 #ripcity

@wolvestwtsara x.com/bballbreakdown…

every single one of these hit the backboard first lmfao

@mls1776 @burgessev She have a soul back then?

@burgessev Can confirm she had it 20 years ago when I worked for her.

Sen. Collins says she has “an essential tremor, which I have had throughout the entire time I have served in the United States Senate. This benign condition, which affects approximately 1 in 20 people over the age of 40, does not interfere at all with my ability to do my job. The tremor is occasionally inconvenient, and sometimes the subject of cruel comments online, but it does not hinder my ability to work and, as I said, is something that I have lived with for decades.”

@akaMattyJ Ant is the realest dude in the Association.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the Minnesota Timberwolves are the most likeable team in basketball. Legit superstar, play with an attitude, talk shit, don’t foul bait, actually care about defense, and have great people like Conley to root for.

@OnAirKarl @bballbreakdown had exactly that.

I’ll concede Wemby’s second block of the game as off the back board, but I watched the other blocks in slow motion and have no idea how you can argue goal tending on any other block.

@SleeperBlazers @DanWoikeSports @TheNBABase Bum

Deandre Ayton says he felt like he “disappeared” in Portland before joining the Lakers: “This is where people make their names, and this is where people get to see you play for real… It’s a big stage, and I’m truly happy to be back.” (via @DanWoikeSports, h/t @TheNBABase)

@eawickham @esjesjesj I'm ok with any treatment someone receives to make them feel better, in consultation with their doctor and in that case their parents.

@esjesjesj Are you okay with 13 year olds getting gender transition surgery? That's happened. Puberty blockers happen at age 10. You good with that?

Fun fact literally no 5 year old has ever gotten gender surgery

@BlazersLead I wanted him to become our TJ McConnell

Portland Trail Blazers End of Season Awards: Blake Wesley — The "Ball of Energy" Award After the first five games of the season, it felt like the Blazers had found a gem in Blake Wesley He fit seamlessly into the ultra-aggressive and fast-paced style the Blazers were running, coming off the bench to wreak absolute havoc Then he sadly broke his foot and missed the large majority of the year, and while no one is probably more upset about it than him, Blazer fans felt his absence Blake never fully re-integrated himself back into the rotation, but it was impossible not to feel his presence on the team as the hype man Blake was the one at the end of the intros doing handshakes, he was always first off the bench to give daps and high fives, and he is an ultra-hard worker whose energy rubbed off on everyone It's safe to say everyone on the team this year loved Blake, and while his status as a Blazer for next year is uncertain, Blake has already locked up his place in Blazers lore for the way he always kept the vibes high in this landmark season

@SC_Nittany_99 @Uniquekatie02 Same. Katie here not as unique as her handle implies.🙄

@Uniquekatie02 Yeah, this was a cute story when I originally read it months ago by someone else 🙄

I was sitting alone at a bar finishing up some writing when this guy walked over, stopped a few feet away like he didn’t want to invade my space, and said, “Quick question… on a scale of 1–10, how open are you to talking to a slightly drunk stranger? My friends are late, but I can absolutely leave you alone if you’re not feeling it.” 😭 The self-awareness, the respectful distance, the exit option… honestly was operating with premium customer service energy.

@JonesOnTheNBA Got the wrong 3pt specialist out of Atlanta.🤦

No. The Blazers couldn’t shoot. That killed them. And other than Deni, who are their relentless downhill guys? Wolves have several guys that can attack off the bounce relentlessly and physically and also can shoot. Blazers needed to create a ton of turnovers to survive Spurs.

@JoshEberley They have a bunch of guys who know the 16 game part of the season really well.

Is every single player on Minnesota underrated except Ant? A thought I genuinely have this morning.

@TwoForOneTalk @michaelgrange What's his contract look like?

Earlier today it was reported by @michaelgrange that third year forward Gradey Dick is open to a trade from the Toronto Raptors. Coming out of the 2023 draft, scouts had Dick transforming into an elite shooter with very high basketball IQ. To be fair there was flashes of it, as in the first months of his sophomore year he was lighting up the league averaging 20 points in his first 20 games of the season. However, Toronto leaned into trying to compete in the east this season, unfortunately leaving Gradey without much room for error in his development. Playing in a career high 76 games, Dick’s minutes were cut in half and he struggled from beyond the arc shooting a career low 30.1% from three point range. Though it has not worked out up north, this a player that undoubtedly could have a benefit to any NBA roster. A low risk target that similar to Deni Avdija, could just need a new environment to unlock his full potential. Personally, my favorite attribute of Gradey Dick is his tenacity and grit that no matter what the actual performance is from him, will be infectious throughout a team and organization. At only the age of 22, would you take a chance on a former lottery pick? #RipCity

@JacksonDamen @freshnessofuk @ShamsCharania Good hire for a good job.

@freshnessofuk @ShamsCharania With all due respect, the Bulls are heading into the offseason with expiring contracts, mutlltiple top draft picks, and roughly 60 million in cap space. Clown them if you like, but they can flex quickly and aggressively, if they want.

Just in: The Chicago Bulls are hiring Atlanta Hawks senior vice president Bryson Graham as the franchise's new Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations, sources tell ESPN. Graham spent 15 years in New Orleans before joining Atlanta last offseason, rising from an intern to GM, and now becomes the Bulls top executive.

Republicans want $1B from taxpayers for Trump’s ballroom. Trump already collected hundreds of millions of dollars in anonymous donations for it. Those donations were bribes. He was always keeping that money. This was always the plan. It was always a scam.

@sydfsh @Dr_Elon1 @hell_line0 The inherent absurdity of human life is the base of all comedy.

@Dr_Elon1 @hell_line0 thousands died and you think the inherent absurdity of human life is funny?

I remember reading a story that 9/11 caused a divorce. A woman’s husband worked in the twin towers, and he was having an affair. He took that day off and spent it with his affair partner in a hotel. He didn’t know what happened yet, so when his wife called him freaking out asking if he’s okay and asking where he is, he casually just told her “yeah, I’m just heading into a meeting right now.” 💀
