Different take from the usual doom and gloom for the upcoming season. I welcome the relative positive outlook for the upcoming season.

Season ends with the Lakers 🥲 . I hope the lottery standings have been decided before the last game of the season.

In late April, the Seattle Kraken announced that they were ending their broadcast partnership with ROOT Sports Northwest early and moving to an over-the-air model to make their games more accessible to fans.

Now, the Trail Blazers are doing the same.

With one year remaining on the agreement they signed in 2021, the Blazers are parting ways with the much-maligned ROOT, effective immediately.

"Trail Blazers basketball will no longer air on ROOT Sports, but we thank ROOT Sports for years of great partnership,” the team said in a statement on Wednesday afternoon. “An exciting announcement on the future television home of Blazers basketball will be made soon."

According to sources with knowledge of the team’s plans, they will be moving games to an over-the-air partner to be determined.

I cannot wait for the Blazers to go over the air!

Total game impression:

Key contributions from Clingan, Murray, Rupert, and McGowen closed a 20 point gap to 4 points and made the Spurs sweat at the end.

Clingan was forcing shots that lead bricks. But his defensive contribution was able to show why he was a lottery pick. The 5 blocks and 13 rebounds showed gives me hope that his skills will translate at the NBA level. His conditioning is not at an NBA level yet, But he shouldn't be playing much as a back up.
