After Trailcasters took a week off (and apparently so did the Trailblazers) to handle some RL, @RipCityKeith @abdiqalis & @NBADraftMikeyV are back for Round 3, breaking down the the ups and downs of being a Blazers fan, all the drama that Chris Haynes is stirring up around both Dame and Kevin Love, and doing their best to break down the play-in tournament structure and postseason seeding!

Congratulations to the Blazers fans going back to the Rose Garden tomorrow night! We're all eager to get back to games, but please, please get vaccinated so we can ALL enjoy seeing our team safely and as soon as possible.

@abdiqalis & @ripcitykeith squeeze in just enough time to hit on several hot Blazers topics this week, including Meyers' anti-semitic slur, the return of CJ McCollum, possible trade targets, too many 3PT shots, and balancing the Stottsfense with some... Stdefense?
