A summer recap of the Blazers moves with my 9-year-old son!
The Basketball Dads discuss:
The one where the basketball dads talk about how this year's NBA playoffs are shaping up to be some of the best in recent memory and Shann unveils his secret love for The Golden State Warriors. We rank Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Haliburton, and Aaron Gordon's (2!) playoff game-winners. We also dip into Mark Daigneault's haircut, the worst commercials of the playoffs, and possible Anfernee Simons trade interest.
In the annual tradition of every team that exits the playoffs (or never makes it) the basketball dads discuss which of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ja Morant, or Zion Williamson you would rather have.
Next, we pour one out for our favorite Blazer of all time, Damian Lillard, as he deals with a season-ending injury.
The Get This Man Some Help give out the first annual batch of Helpie awards. Among the honorees in this years award slate: Jerami Grant, Scoot Henderson, Shaedon Sharpe and Toumani Camara. We also discuss statues, snacks, and fits.
The episode wherein Shann has a personal growth moment and comes to if not LOVE the Trail Blazers' coach, at least appreciate what he's been able to accomplish. Other things discussed in the episode:

In this episode we discuss:
The All Star Game is broken... so maybe we should just have an enormous 1v1 tournament like the WNBA?! Toumani levels up (again) and the Blazers are going to try and sneak into the play-in tournament (WHAT?!?). Why isn't Shaedon Sharpe starting, what do we hope for in the last third of the season, and Shann share's his universal theory of cool.
The Basketball Dads are BACK with that fresh basketball content you've been craving and a continued pondering of the age-old question--do the Blazers have "the man" who needs "the help."
