Steve's Place<p>From hoopsrumors.com:</p><p>A group led by the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon reached an agreement on Wednesday to buy the Trail Blazers. That group includes Sheel Tyle, co-CEO of Collective Global who is married to Dr. Sejal Hathi, the head of Oregon Health Authority, Sean Highkin of the Rose Garden Report writes (Substack subscriber link). The group’s local connection through Tyle is one of a few reasons why it stood out among the bidders, per Highkin.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>I consider him insurance against gambles on the team's youthful core progressing as fast as fans envision. It's not crazy to ask too much. If you get it, great. But he's insurance, something he and his agent might not be too crazy about, but I think the team benefits from him hanging around a bit longer. You just never know with young players, a long schedule, and injuries.</p><p><a href="https://flipboard.com/@fansided/rip-city-project-bkrnltf9z/-/a-r54afsibQiuix9-ad2VIBg%3Aa%3A61877088-%2F0" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">flipboard.com/@fansided/rip-ci</span><span class="invisible">ty-project-bkrnltf9z/-/a-r54afsibQiuix9-ad2VIBg%3Aa%3A61877088-%2F0</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/JeramiGrant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JeramiGrant</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>Interesting bit about the sale of the Trail Blazers from another Hoopsrumors article:</p><p>Portland Mayor Keith Wilson had a 30-minute phone call with commissioner Adam Silver on June 4 to discuss the city’s commitment to keeping the Trail Blazers, according to Andrew Theen of Oregon Public Broadcasting. The call took place about three weeks after plans were announced to sell the franchise. Cody Bowman, a spokesperson for the mayor, said Wilson has “been working closely” with team officials throughout the sale process.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Portland</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/PDX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PDX</span></a></p>

Steve's Place<p>Duop Reath now has a fully-guaranteed contract with the Trail Blazers.</p><p>Who?</p><p>He's a tall guy who scores, passes, and swats the ball away, and he's pretty good at all 3. A late bloomer.</p><p>The guy you might never have heard of will earn a full $2,220,000.00 next year which, if my calculations are correct, will be roughly the price of a dozen eggs by next year at this time.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>Another Trail Blazer decides he'll skip a foreign competition to hang around in Portland this summer.</p><p>It's what the article suggests, plus that big guy they just got, who can barely speak English, and who skipped his foreign summer competition, might like to work out with his new friends.</p><p>It's a different reason for Ajay.</p><p><a href="https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2025/07/camara-mitchell-wont-play-in-eurobasket.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">hoopsrumors.com/2025/07/camara</span><span class="invisible">-mitchell-wont-play-in-eurobasket.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Thunder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Thunder</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>

Steve's Place<p>“As soon as I was waived and obviously [Jrue] knows that I live here and built my home here and stuff,” Lillard said. “He sent me the eyeball emoji. I kind of knew already like — I already knew where I was pivoting to when he sent it but I didn’t want to say nothing too soon, so here we are.”</p><p>The power of the emoji is strong in this one.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>From hoopsrumors.com:</p><p>Suns draft pick Rasheer Fleming found out during a pre-draft workout with the Trail Blazers how skilled Yang Hansen was. Portland wound up using the No. 16 pick on the Chinese big man. “They’ve been saying he’s the next Jokic,” Fleming told Sean Highkin of the Rose Garden Report (Substack link). “He’s so skilled. We got to see all of that in the workout. He was on my team. He threw me some dimes. He can really pass.”</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/YangHansen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>YangHansen</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>

Steve's Place<p>Whether he plays or not, Damian's presence and work ethic will benefit the team this season. I wouldn't completely rule out him playing. It would be the first time in his career that he didn't hustle to get back on the floor.</p><p>Chauncey looks like the cat that caught the mouse in that photo.</p><p><a href="https://www.nba.com/news/damian-lillard-trail-blazers-homecoming" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nba.com/news/damian-lillard-tr</span><span class="invisible">ail-blazers-homecoming</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Lillard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Lillard</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>After a 22-0 Suns run, Portland's Caleb Love hit a FT. Suns called time. 2.9 seconds to go in the half.</p><p>A long 3 attempt after a miss.</p><p>49-39 Phoenix at the half.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Suns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Suns</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>42-37 Suns in the 2nd. Sidy went to the bench and the match-ups weren't happening. Hansen is on the bench for the game, so the rotation has a hole in it. Offense was getting mugged and their pockets picked. 15-0 Suns run.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Suns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Suns</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>
Steve's Place<p>35-27 Portland in the 2nd. Cissoko is playing heads-up ball. Most recently, he stole the ball from the Suns' point guard bringing the ball up the floor, and scored while being fouled. Coaches will like that.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/TrailBlazers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrailBlazers</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/Suns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Suns</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.stevesworld.co/tags/NBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NBA</span></a></p>

Steve's Place<p>The Hansen-Love connection looks excellent.</p><p>The end of the 3rd [Edit: 2nd, lol.
