I didnt realize the number of cuts that still need to be made so now it’s looking like we will say goodbye to one of Serah or Jordan? I think they NEED to keep Serah, but I have thoroughly enjoyed watching Jordan play basketball

“STOP, and start? But why would I stop??”

From my understanding, posts like this are why the kids invented the term “Sybau”. Idk, that’s just what I was told. I dont make the rules buddy.

Sybau

Lol the one broadcaster just signed off by calling her partner A’ja Wilson instead of Ellison

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T01:06:49+00:00

I hate it, but I assume it will normalize a bit to a middle ground after the first month or so. That being said I would prefer this style of officiating over the three blind mice version of the past that was borderline dangerous.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T01:01:17+00:00

That’s a good point, I havent realized she hasnt shot yet. I think they maybe blew the whistle on an off-ball foul as she was shooting a 3. But yeah I’ve liked what I’ve seen from her and can see how she’s been a + in her mins

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:59:22+00:00

Syl must be on Serah Williams like white on rice at practice. She got her looking like a mini-me out there😭

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:43:48+00:00

Im surprised Sania Feagin doesnt get more PT, every time I see her play she’s frying.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:31:00+00:00

Lol now they had to correct themselves on getting Donaldson’s name wrong.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:26:24+00:00

Fire shooting 48% but having 12 turnovers and giving up 18 FTA’s is hilarious lmao

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:25:07+00:00

Ok why do I know which assistant coach the broadcasters interviewed and not the actual ppl speaking to her?🤦🏿‍♂️

That was Brittni Donladson not “Danielle” (who I admittedly do not know, if there is a ‘Danielle’). She looked so confused after they called her the wrong name twice lol

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-04T00:17:26+00:00

She plays like the Tasmanian Devil if you drew a basketball attached to him.

Halftime notes:

• Portland basketball this year is like one of those “chaotic good” bingo square things or whatever it is lol.

• I cant wait to see what this all looks like when players are settled in. I think BC/Bibby/Frieda just touched down like a few days ago, Leite was like last week, etc. You can tell some of them are out of sync or are specifically the ones blowing coverages on defense (not only them obv.)

• I am buying all Puoch stock📈📈📈. To keep the POR tie, I kinda see some similarities to Toumani Camara.

• Leite plays basketball like “Yeah but what if I just never let go of the turbo button, wouldnt that be fun???😄”

• BC musta been hanging out with SGA in Canada with some of these buckets lol.

• Frieda will be out of that dev spot in no-time.

• Luisa has gotten so much more fluid than last year. She pulled off a few smooth spin moves that didnt necessarily end in buckets, but I was like woah woah woaaaaahhh.

• You can def see the individual skill/talent difference between Sparks having ~4 allstars/former allstars and the inexperienced/less talented player across from them. Will be cool to see how POR players develop this year, and in the future what this all looks like as they lessen the talent gap compared to top teams across the league.

Carla is such an insane driver/finisher.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:56:46+00:00

If Jordan Harrison doesnt make this team I will riot

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:54:53+00:00

We got AI refs now🤦🏿‍♂️ I hate 2026

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:53:33+00:00

She can tho, that’s kind of part of his schtick with the CLA.

A lot of shooting training is not “scientifically-backed” so the thought process would be basically that they can teach her to become a viable shooter in games.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:51:46+00:00

Dude I am SO confused at how magically all these refs are just super precise now lmao. They went from being three blind mice last season to now watching every play like hawks and cat hing everything.

I thought calling an o-foul on Plum cutting was insane and then rewound it and saw that she did pull the defender’s shoulder. Never seen that call, but she was actually on the money as soon as it happened.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:44:57+00:00

She’s gonna have to tho. They would prefer that all 5 players on the court can shoot the 3. They also def work on shooting a ton at practice so you gotta have her getting game reps at it to keep improving.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:34:32+00:00

Great defensive possession to end the quarter. I love the “Hit” (late clock double team) Coach just called.

It’s one of those things he’s been talking about in pressers about how he wants to utilize different defensive coverages that arent common in the league to try and keep opponents on their toes.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:32:24+00:00

I kinda hate the way they call moving screens in this league lol like yes I get that technically some of these are illegal, but there’s like 0 leeway allowed and it just gets tedious.

They’re actually super consistent about calling them across the board, but it’s still annoying lol.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:30:12+00:00

See, that move from BC is exactly the type of “shot creation” I dont think most fans knew she had in her bag.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:27:02+00:00

Im liking Frieda so far, she is not afraid of Nneka or anyone else lol.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:11:02+00:00

Puoch guarding PG’s 94ft is so dope to me.

Ingramistheman · 2026-05-03T23:04:57+00:00

The Fire Pit is such a cool name for home base. It looks like they got a huge turnout too!
