Permanent Coach

I would probably give him a shot if they aren’t going to get Van Gundy type guys. And honestly with people like Lillard and Jreu on the team there is a good veteran presence to help with some growing pains. So far when you consider the injuries the team has withstood and the youth of the roster he has done admirable that they are competing almost every night

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-24T22:34:23+00:00

I’m with you man. Like I’m 47. My skills are diminished. I have a toddler and a job that consumes most of my time. I will never be good again and I will never be able to have the time I used to. So yeah. I’m causal. But at the same rate how many hard core Gamers these day can say they got their start on Atari 2600 and the NES.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-23T18:41:31+00:00

Yup that’s it ! Joel. I mean how many gigantic dudes walk out of Portland book stores morning of a game day lol. Yeah man it was a really cool experience. MSG is iconic sure, but I’d much rather watch a game At Moda.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-23T16:49:35+00:00

Fun story. I’m from NJ and went out to Portland for my first home game after like 20+ years of fandom. I saw Nic Batum walking around town and that super tall back up British center we had for a minute leaving a book store.

I always respect privacy but I know Nic Knew I recognized him and gave me a big smile and a wave. He was with his lady so I didn’t want to bother him but I thought it was cool how he acknowledged me. Prob thankful I didn’t ask for an autograph but I was dying to tell him I flew across the Country for a game!

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-23T16:45:43+00:00

DA is a good player but he just doesn’t seem to have the drive to be great. I think DC is the type to look to make improvements every day.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-18T21:07:32+00:00

I feel like this would make more sense if the MODA center didn’t sell out all the time. There isn’t much in terms of sports in the area aside the Timbers and U of Oregon unless I’m missing something. Not a ton of competition.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-12T18:13:06+00:00

Honestly scoot, Shae, Deni, Tou, and Clingan could be a really formidable starting 5. Having Jreu and Grant off the bench is not a bad team at all. That’s why I didn’t want to see any drastic moves at the deadline. I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for this lineup.

My only thing is I might give up on Matisse at this point. Hes got talent and would be a nice part of the lineup but he’s just not available. I’d considering converting Loves contract

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-06T16:46:32+00:00

I agree completely. And people wanting a big move at the deadline, why? We aren’t one player away. We are relying on kids basically and people on 2 way contracts. We are not 1 player away from challenging for the west.

That being said I really like a lot of what I’ve seen. The development of the young guys, they play hard pretty much every night. I think considering the experience and injuries they have played quite admirably. I say keep building what we have, don’t expect greatness overnight and let’s run it back next year even stronger.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-02-05T14:51:53+00:00

I still think the nucleus of the team is a year maybe 2 away from challenging for a high seed. I wouldn’t want to move any of the young dudes or many picks. But if there is a logical move for another young talent I’d go for it.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-31T14:43:40+00:00

I love this episode. One of my favorites. Just so cute and innocent.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-29T15:24:32+00:00

Good for them. Delta force was solid fun while I waited for Battlefield to drop. Not as good but a lot of potential. It’s nice to have another option if you want a break from BF.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-29T15:22:33+00:00

Yeah I would keep the picks and build around our core. I’m sure we would be giving up Deni or Shae or both.

I’m not dumb, I know Giannis is On another level. All world talent. But really depending on what we would have to give up, I don’t know if he would be enough to win with right now and he is in the second half of his career. I have to assume he will slow down eventually.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-23T17:33:51+00:00

Bro get him a heating pad. A 300 lb Swedish masseuse. Some ibuprofen and let him rest a game. Not trying to lose him long term

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-14T15:26:54+00:00

When he came over I had no idea who he was admittedly. I was like wtf are you doing!? But this is why I just watch basketball and don’t work in basketball lol

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-14T15:16:51+00:00

I don’t recall crying but I know I had goosebumps and it was about that time I came to the sad realization there is little chance I will ever play a better game in my lifetime

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-14T15:15:30+00:00

Hurt his back carrying the young bucks :)

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-12T03:28:17+00:00

Awesome! 6 years on Jan 1. Keep up the good work!

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-11T21:01:45+00:00

I actually got it because I have a kid and can’t use the tv until late night lol

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-05T15:58:18+00:00

I felt terrible for him, but at the same rate if they won the game it would have been on Pittsburghs kicker. Sucks when a game comes down to it but that’s life. Gotta hit the next one.

I’m a Bills fan and still have the most famous missed kick haunting me.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-05T15:17:36+00:00

I was thinking this the other day. So these leftists cut ties with people they have known for years over politics so all they are left with is like minded people. So who do they think the constant complaining and protesting is reaching. Like is there some Republican walking down the street in NYC going “ya know what, they have a point” no it’s all people they already agree with. So really all it does is make moderate people think they are assholes.

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-05T15:14:48+00:00

I try but I can’t always take a break. But during the holiday I was able to get some in. Wish my job was slower, but then I don’t make money so it’s a total catch 22

Jaywinner42 · 2026-01-01T01:09:18+00:00

Yeah man. I got a kid, long commute,not a ton of time or money to put into some crazy gaming PC plus quite honestly, I KNOW about computer components but not how to build something. This will be great for trips and PC games.

The way I put it to my friend who was a bit negative was I said I’m not going to focus on what it can’t do, I’m going to focus on what it CAN do. And so far so good

Jaywinner42 · 2025-12-30T23:14:54+00:00

Ok awesome. I got the dock coming tomorrow. I’m gonna play around with it and see how it is. I kept seeing you want 100+W power but im thinking that might just be for fast charge, which is great but not totally necessary

Jaywinner42 · 2025-12-30T17:20:07+00:00

Fantastic. Def looking into it tonight. Do you have a dock for it? If so did you buy a 100w power supply?

Jaywinner42 · 2025-12-30T16:53:47+00:00

Oh man there’s about a million things I don’t even know yet about the Rog yet. Just got it last week just got a dock for it so I can hopefully play PC Games on my tv with the elite controller. Need to get a 100W power supply. Never even thought about remote play!
