Well, after losing the cooper Flagg lottery, Portland is finally for sale after sitting in Paul Allen’s estate.

Someone said on Dan Patrick that rigging the lottery is a federal crime. Not sure they could keep all the mouths shut to pull off a rigged lottery.

All the talk had been that Nico had some obsession with AD for a long time. I think after the playoffs last year there was hope that Luka might be able to defend at a passable level, but he's been pretty horrible this year on that end of the floor.

It was a bad trade, but a GM outthinking himself or letting ego get in the way is a pretty common thing in sports.

If I had an NBA insider nerd podcast I think "The Frozen Envelope" would be a cool name for it.

Donovan Mitchell is...playing.

We'll see how much of that game four pain was being down 41 at halftime. They say he looks fantastic in warmups and I'm sure he'll drop 50.

What’s the record for free throws by one person in. Playoff game. Mitchell going for the record, 9 attempts in one quarter.

Tyrese hitting some bombs out there. I think four 3's in the last 5 or 6 minutes.
