Thank you for this! It was great hearing someone finally talking about how there are 29 teams that don’t win it all and it’s ok to enjoy the team even if we aren’t going to be that 1 that does win.

Maybe it’s only good by US standards, but not by world standards?

I'd get League Pass if it wasn't so expensive and if the Blazers weren't going to put all the fun players on IRL after the All Star Break. I'm not interested in paying to watch 40 point blow outs. The mentality seems to be now if you aren't trying to win it all you're wasting your time...

I'm not in Portland anymore, so it's hard to watch them now. Games are more exciting lately so I listen on iHeart Radio when I can. Why is that free but the broadcast isn't? Both are supported by ads. If there was a free ad-supported streaming broadcast I'd happily watch it.

Second, why am I going to pay to watch a team that tanks? I'm a Blazers fan and I love my team. The last time I paid to watch them it was an awful game, the second of a back to back where Wemby sat out. I grew up watching them for free on TV, unlike bands where I would buy their record.

Why does it have to be AI type players that get labeled authentic, while KAT type players are labeled corny? Maybe Wemby isn't "sanded down," that's just who he is. Not all players are going to appeal to suburban white boys who love Wu Tang. (Speaking as a suburban white boy who loved Wu Tang).

We’re trying to fix it but there’s enough people who seem to like it the way it is!

Rockets are better than the Blazers right now!
