@dgm591 Also, the Blazers have exactly one guy on the summer league team that hopes to play on the big club, and he’s probably their fourth-string center at the this point. If you had a bunch of young picks, it would probably look different.
@JellyFace5@SamQuinnCBS No one is saying he is. They’re saying he is both younger and much cheaper, and the difference is not worth the cost of the swap.
@jwquick@jwquick this is absolutely classic writing from you. I’m literally going to hang on to my Athletic subscription a little longer because I hope to see more of this.
@strugglesaurus I heard Scott Galloway describe it more or less this way: losing your job is depressing, but temporary. Eventually, that can come back. Working multiple jobs or a dead-end job with no prospect of improvement and still just barely scraping by FEELS even worse.
@HPbasketball Watching the Thunder feels like watching a VERY good basketball team playing at the highest level. Watching the teams you mentioned felt like witnessing basketball demigods do something no one else could.
A Heidelberg University study restricted phone use for just 72 hours.
Brain scans before. Brain scans after.
The researchers were stunned by what they found.
Here's what 3 days without your phone actually does to your brain:
A maniac in a minivan sped through the scene of a SWAT standoff just now in White Center.
Our photographer was at the scene filming when a woman became irate she couldn't drive down the street. She left and then came speeding back - this is what happened next.

@JonesOnTheNBA My argument for shortening the season has less to do with rest and more to do with practice: I think we would get a better product on the court if teams had the opportunity to practice more consistently.
@ArmandDoma “We need everyone to speak up in this critical moment. Wait, not someone who actually interacts with the people who still need convincing!”
Dumb, dumb take.
@EWErickson He’s unhappy that he looks bad. He likes to put on a bad Putin cosplay until he gets blamed for it, then he can put out that he’s “unhappy” about it. Meanwhile, if ICE and and Border Patrol weren’t out there roughing up brown people, he would be mad that he didn’t look “tough”.
@BlazersLead I honestly can’t believe the Jody haters. I get wanting an owner who is more vocal, but the Seahawks are going to the Super Bowl and the Blazers are .500 this late in the season for the first time in five years, despite being decimated by injuries.
