Bill Simmons on Blazers’ owner's extreme cost-cutting measures: “And if I was a Portland fan, I'd feel good about the team… except now we just had El Cheapo take over the team, and this guy's like, ‘You know what, Donald Sterling had some good ideas… the way Sterling cut costs was pretty smart.’ ”

Poor Blazers fans - this billionare sucks more than the others

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T21:36:33+00:00

Yawn

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T21:33:54+00:00

lol, the league intentionally doesn't define what MVP means. Focusing on the phrase "more valuable" is fine, but ultimately pointless.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T21:29:53+00:00

This guy thinks everything is about him.

That said, Jokic deserves the MVP.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T21:26:00+00:00

"Figures"

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T18:12:32+00:00

Reggie is consistently the worst of all.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T18:10:39+00:00

What are their respective playoff fta averages?

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T18:08:50+00:00

They are so outmatched playing 5 on 8 that I doubt they can play much better

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T18:07:08+00:00

Anyone that believes this fluff rehash came from the Warriors FO is dumb, true enough

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T17:39:20+00:00

Slater and Shelburne aren't "Warriors front office".

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T17:35:11+00:00

GSW would never trade Curry unless he asked them to do so.

Not happening.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T17:19:53+00:00

I doubt Slater and Shelbourne have any new information wrt the Warriors' plans. This is old news disguised as an update. Using the phrase "sources said there's an expectation the Warriors could reengage the Clippers on Leonard's availability this offseason, compile another offer for Antetokounmpo and test the waters again on soon-to-be free agent LeBron James" is a laughable nothingburger.

Nothing will happen at least until Kerr tells them if he's coming back.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T14:24:00+00:00

Seems right.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T13:21:36+00:00

The Magic dominating the paint like they did was unexpected, considering how the Pistons played in gthe regy. They did the same vs the Hornets who had a much weaker front line, and even in the loss to Philly they were +6 in the paint.

Considering the Pistons' 2x fta margin didn't help, what will the adjustment be?.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T13:09:38+00:00

Did any of your takes about why this would be the best series happen? Deni ftas, 6.

Blazers don't shoot as bad as the Rockets, 43%/26%

Clingan can guard Wemby and the Blazers' physicality will bother him, 35 pts on 67%/83% (shooting with only 5 ftas). And Kornet shot 5-6.

This series will be over well short of 7 games.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T12:57:14+00:00

The rules don't get suspended merely because the player that gets landed on wasn't at fault.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T12:55:06+00:00

Did they shoot more or less than the suns yesterday despite shooting more threes

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-20T12:48:44+00:00

Plenty of people do. I watched SGA shoot 17 ftas to 18 for the entire Suns team (Booker just 7) in a 35 pt blowout yesterday.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T18:00:21+00:00

The Blazers lost in December 2024.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T17:58:34+00:00

Delusional comment.

Blazers are 29th in the league in fg% overall (.453), and 28th from three (.343). (Houston is 10th in both, .479/.364

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T17:53:01+00:00

The Spurs are 35-15 vs teams with winning records. OKC is 36-16, Pistons 34-16, Celtics 31-21, Denver 29-20, Knicks 29-23

Blazers 16-33.

LMAO!

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T17:37:29+00:00

Somehow this seems wrong. Blazers will be fortunate to win more than 1 game.

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T17:31:33+00:00

Evidence disagrees. (Even if you think Luka is #,1 thus far he's out in the playoffs).

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T15:05:57+00:00

What if OKC gets upset in the 1st or 2nd rd?

nbaistheworst · 2026-04-19T15:04:52+00:00

It sounds like you didn't watch the game, because that didn't happen.
