The Trail Blazers Have Perfected The Art of Tanking



The Portland Trail Blazers lost on purpose.

The loss to the Memphis Grizzlies included benching Shaedon Sharpe for the final eight minutes of a tied game. It broke my spirit.

Skylar Mays is fun at least.

  1. Don't blame the team blame the system. It's like getting mad at rich folks for using he tax code to pay next to nothing in taxes. Unless you change the rules this is what you're gonna get.

  2. Keep up the PMA MIke, purposefully tanking isn't A moral in today's NBA. It's an unfortunate necessity for any team out of the top 5 for cap space. Parity in this league is virtually non-existent, we gotta do what we gotta do to give Dame a chance. The NBA system is the problem, not the Blazers.

  3. I swear…if we end up letting skyler mays go in favor of keeping keon as our backup pg next year I'll be pissed! No, he doesn't possess Keon's athleticism but he certainly can play the pg position

  4. Gotta take a more positive outlook, pulling Sharpe is just adding fuel to the fire that they really need to keep him out of any and all trades this offseason if you can’t keep him on the floor against a fully healthy roster of the number 2 ranked team in the west. If we trade him I guarantee we’ll regret it for many years to come unless you get an epic haul which knowing this organization it won’t be. Here’s hoping we finally break that habit.

  5. Mike, thanks for putting into words how I feel.
