Walking with Jesus doesn’t guarantee an easier life, it doesn’t guarantee that things would always go our way. Sometimes God may send us into a storm, sometimes He may lead us into a valley. But it’s in those moment where we learn to trust Him and we learn to surrender, which isn’t easy. It’s in those moments where we can see how weak we are without Jesus and how much we need Him. God doesn’t abandon us in the storm or valley and He’s not working against us. He’s with us in every moment and He’s for us. In those moments, sometimes it’s hard to see what He’s doing, but we have to walk by faith and we have to hold on to His promises. The storms and the valleys that He takes us through at times are not meant to destroy us, but it’s to draw us closer to Him and to build us up into the man and the woman He’s calling us to be. Don’t let go, keep holding on!
“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”
2 Corinthians 12:9
Portland,
These have been great months, and I felt truly welcomed by the city from day one. Thank you to everyone in the organization for your daily dedication and support from day 1. Thank you to the fans for all the love and encouragement. Thank you for the opportunity to be part of this journey.
To the players, thank you for your commitment and hard work every day. It was a privilege to work alongside you.
See you guys.
Thank you,
Tiago
The best recipe for success is the ability to be rejected without losing enthusiasm. We got thousands of rejects for interview requests over the years. But during those thousands of requests, we always get a few that say yes. Sometimes we get a yes years later. I can guarantee you that I've been rejected more times than you. There would be no VladTV in 2026 if I had given up in 2008 after being rejected. And we still got rejected today. And this mentality doesn't just apply to business. It applies to dating, friendships, and almost everything else in your life. Keep this in mind the next time you get rejected.
Breaking: The Bulls are finalizing the hire of Tiago Splitter to be the team's new head coach, sources tell @ShamsCharania.
Splitter served as interim head coach for the Trail Blazers and led Portland to the playoffs this season.
Forgive my ignorance: as prospects, what’s the major differences between Caleb Wilson and Tyrus Thomas?
Tyrus was picked 4th overall. Similar build. Their max vertical, weight, reach all identical.
Tyrus had enough hype causing the Bulls to trade the 2nd pick to get him.
