Blazers threw one away in Dallas tonight. Flagg with some big plays down the stretch. Blazers went from looking impressive to frankly, how we'd look during the BT Y2 games we'd choke down the stretch.

I haven't really watched much Blazers despite being here this year. All the preseason hype on Yang and he's only played in 5 games and has been reassigned to the Remix.

It was over for Yang the second he actually cried during a game

they don't air the games on your local channels?

Hawks games are only available locally on FanDuel. I don't pay for that; I don't like Atlanta sports enough to pay to watch them.

Amusingly, the only Atlanta-based team that I would pay to watch (WNBA's Atlanta Dream) has their home games broadcast on the local CW channel, which is free over-the-air.

According to Doctor Internet Lauri Markkanen is the active leader in games played (463 and counting) without a trip to the playoffs. He has six career 40+ point games.

By way of comparison, DeMarcus Cousins had played in 565 regular season games before his first playoff appearance, including 13 games of 40 or more. I don't see Markkanen passing the latter milestone, but the former seems imminently catchable.

Poor Lauri, being held hostage by the GOAT Danny Ainge.

when did they start airing it exclusively only on FanDuel? that's an odd platform to play local games
 
so late of a start for this Blazers Suns game, 9pm...people don't have to work tomorrow morning in Portland it seems

If that’s another blood clot, he’s pretty much done. I can’t imagine any physician willing to risk and clear him

I can only imagine that toll it must take to air travel so frequently for an individual with that height, he may have to start bussing around the US

If you want to be pedantic, last season, when Bally Sports Southeast became FanDuel Southeast. A less assholish answer would be 1990, when the Hawks moved from WTBS to SportsSouth. That's the last time they were available locally on "free" TV, but SportsSouth was available on "basic" cable down here until, like, 2018. It wasn't until then that it became part of a "premium" sports tier.

The next time someone fixes their mouth to talk about how great the NBA's return to NBC has been, I will direct them to Coast to Coast Tuesdays.
 
I checked the local listing and it says 8pm start? It's 8:20 right now and game is ~4 mins into the 1st.

But I do think those weird nights where all 30 teams play and they stagger starts by 15 minutes some were starting at 8:30 or later?

People in Portland tend to show up at work whenever they feel like it if they aren't in a service or minimum wage job. Having work done to restore my bathroom after a burst pipe and most days the crews show up at 9am. Drywall guy inexplicably arrived at 8:30 yesterday and we hadn't moved the cats yet.
