After playing two preseason games, both losses to the Utah Jazz, the Trail Blazers had their first off day of training camp on Friday, so it seemed like a good time to hit the studio to record the 21st edition of the Rip City Report podcast with Joe Freeman of The Oregonian and I, Casey Holdahl of ForwardCenter.net and TrailBlazers.com.

We got so many great questions from fans this week that we decided to devote the entire podcast to answering those queries to the best of our abilities. Topics range from what to make of Portland’s first two preseason performances and who will provide scoring off the bench to running down which Wu-Tang Clan Members each player on the team most closely aligns with. I predict this episode to be our most hated one yet!
