Kevin O'Connor: (Damian Lillard) goes from making these vague comments about, “Yeah, I don’t know how long I’ll be here” like weeks before the season to suddenly “I’m all in.” There are front office executives around the league who think this is a strategic choice by the Blazers, Dame’s group and all that in order to create leverage for the organization because right now around the league teams just want Dame. They don’t they don’t want CJ McCollum, they don’t want Jusuf Nurkic. They’re like, “We’re gonna wait for Dame to demand a trade.

I just don’t understand the College Football Playoff Committee’s view of Cincinnati. Beyond being undefeated, they have arguably the best non-conference win (Oregon is the only one that’s close).

Tayshaun Prince will not get the job, but who will get it is fairly wide open.Officially, Olshey was fired for “violations of the Trail Blazers’ Code of Conduct,” creating a toxic work environment. However, he also left behind him a mess on the court (good luck finding anyone who doesn’t think that was part of the decision). While Olshey said the roster was not the problem in Portland last season, this season showed it clearly was a big part of the problem — and it fits terribly with the more aggressive defensive style new coach Chauncey Billups wants to play.

In March, we shared OR Senate Bill 704, aimed to ban the LGBTQ+ panic defense. Since then, the bill was passed & made law. It was a win in the fight to protect our LGBTQ+ community from harm due to their gender identity or sexual orientation. However, the work isn’t done. pic.twitter.com/tWyxe6eHlM – 6:17 PM
