Most gutted I have ever felt as a sports fan. I feel just sick. From Kobe’s last game ever at the Rose Garden/Moda Center. Probably my favorite memory ever covering sports. 👇

I know Dylan Raiola was terrible last week, but it doesn't feel like Brock Thomas is going to give them any chance to win to me.

Sad news: I’ve been fired by the Portland Trail Blazers for typing 58008 into a calculator and holding it upside down in 2009

A good organization would have researched if there was anything more to Braiden Bell's tweets. If there were not, it would let him apologize for insensitive tweets as a 15-year-old and let him keep the job. The Trail Blazers do not appear to be a good organization.

Portland Trail Blazers have fired Braiden Bell hours after naming him the new TV play-by-play broadcaster after racist tweets were discovered in his past as a teen.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The Portland Trailblazers have a history of employing players who used racial slurs while employed by them and have hired players with previous violent felony sex convictions. They do not have zero tolerance for racist or sexist comments. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Mi… en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruben_Pat…

"What I think we saw here was a tale of an elite coach and a complete fraud as a coach. And I think everyone knows who the fraud is, it is Lincoln Riley." -Finebaum on @FirstTake

No, tasteless was when the USC players were celebrating while the opposing QB was knocked out on the turf & still celebrating as he was getting loaded on a stretcher. And you getting offended over a guy beating his chest because he won with a backup QB after that is so soft.
Credit to Dan Lanning and Oregon for a big win, but this, along with his comment about the crowd is pretty tasteless and unnecessary.

That was one of the most shameful USC losses I've witnessed. The classless behavior, the playcalling, the shoddy defense. And all for a game everyone else said was the defining game of the Riley Era

Lincoln Riley is already one of the biggest bitches when it comes to postgame press conferences. This one should be an All-Timer. Please don't let him off the hook.

Dirty football move. Classless football move. Prayers for Dante Moore, but tough to step on the field with dudes like #8 that’ll cheap shot you and then laugh.

There are a lot of times when a QB slides that a defender is caught in no man's land because they can't defy time and space, but Desman Stephens is standing, shoulders square when Moore is already in his slide. He lowered and went in anyway.

Never seen players celebrate an injury the way USC did with Dante. You are so gross.

Worst loss since Civil War Lanning's first year when they were leading 34-17. Score was closer than the game should have been with the two tipped picks.

Well, they can't disappoint me late in the season now.

You really jumped on the most obvious trying to draw them offsides play where the ball was right in front of you?

Probably were intending to sign Kevin Love to complete the Snowtime Lakers roster
Free agent center Kevon Looney has agreed on a one-year, $3.9 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, Life Sports Agency CEO Todd Ramasar tells ESPN.

2 years for less than $13 mill? A lot of teams messed up.
Just in: Free agent guard Anfernee Simons has agreed to a two-year, $12.3 million deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, with a player option in second season, sources tell ESPN. Simons chose the 76ers over other suitors believing his fit is perfect with the revamped 76ers roster.
