Listen "Who Had A Terrific Week? Nas Little Had a Terrific Week!"
Episode Synopsis
Tara and Cassidy record their reactions to the Trail Blazers' first week of regular season play, right before the Memphis game.
2:00 Which Blazer had the best week? Nassir Little is averaging 9.3 points per game, 4.7 rebounds, and 1 assist per game. He's also doing non-stat things!
6:00 The distance between the floor and the ceiling this season is a lot.
6:30 What things are different this season?
12:00 Why are they changing the offense (which as we've been told, is great) AND the defense (which we know needs a LOT of work) at the same time?
14:20 Is it weird that the chemistry is not translating?
15:00 Why is Damian Lillard having a hard time making buckets?
17:00 Anfernee Simons had a good week too.
19:40 Ben McLemore hasn't played much but his fits are great and his bench presence is good.
20:40 Assistance Coach of the Year watch update
22:35 There is a new group exploring ownership of a WNBA team in Oakland that includes Alana Beard and Damian Lillard's mom and Cassidy can hardly contain her excitement.
23:30 Getting to know Dennis Smith Jr
28:00 Dennis Smith Jr has two ACLs in one leg!
33:00 Did we talk ourselves into Larry Nance Jr or is he really going to be a game changer?
40:00 The starters look like they are having a harder time adjusting than the bench.
42:55 Who would be on the Blazers' Leadership Council?
