Portland Trail Blazers
So a little bit of shade…
Remember at the start of the season when copious talking heads called out the Thunder suggesting they were ruining basketball because of tanking?
Let’s note the fact the 76ers never heard rhetoric on that level during ‘The Process’ years while they landed copious lottery picks including multiple number one and top three picks.
More importantly, the Thunder battled all year and are clinging to the final play-in spot whereas the Blazers shut down Dame Lillard and should consider publishing ’10 easy ways to tank after the All-Star Break’ coffee table book.
Oh — and OKC swept the Blazers (with three of those matches occurring before the break!).
Stats
Portland averages 114.9 points per game ranking 18th while shooting 48.3% from the field and 37.4% from the perimeter ranking seventh and eighth respectively.
The Blazers allow 114.8 points per game (18th) with foes shooting 48.3% from the field and 36.8 from deep ranking 26th in both latter categories.
Injury Report

- Damian Lillard (OUT—calf)

San Antonio Spurs
Certainly, the Spurs are also tanking but perhaps Pops is just more adept at hiding the obviousness of their efforts. Albeit there isn’t a cornerstone talent of the same ilk as Dame on the Spurs.
Rather, they have a handful of quality supporting role players that would perfectly complement Victor Wembanyama.
If you’re a Rockets or Pistons fan I offer my apologies, but for pure NBA fans, odds are most would prefer Wemby landing in San Antonio because of Pop and the development coaches.

Free Portland Trail Blazers vs. San Antonio Spurs NBA Prediction:
Portland is 5-16 since the Break running out a group of players like Jeenathan Williams, Justin Manaya, and Jabari Walker that has most fans asking ‘who he play for?’
If there was any doubt these clubs are purposely tanking scan the injury reports compared to teams fighting to get into the play-in or to secure a playoff berth.
Revisiting my opening Blazers comments – Adam Silver and the NBPA need to revisit tanking – – just because Portland waited until the halfway mark this blatant tanking and sitting your top 10 players shouldn’t go undisciplined either.
