Rose and Tara haven’t talked in a while and you can tell! We had plenty to catch up on like Rose’s trip to the Bay Area and Tara’s new hobbies. Plus off season fan fiction, appreciating Carmelo Anthony and a sidebar on Oklahoma City and do we have any idea who James Harden really is? 

And finally we talk about one of our favorite Blazers, a nominee for multiple 2023 WHAT awards and some might say the darling of this podcast, Trendon Watford. If you tuned in just to hear about Trendon, it starts at right about one hour in (sorry, its been a long time since we’ve seen each other!!)

Join us on Discord! It's a place where we can share our love for the Blazers, talk about games, and get to know other Blazer fans. Kind of like Twitter but it's not. There are different channels with different topics and you can join in where you want, and ignore the stuff you don't want to see. Give it a try! You can also still find us on Twitter: @wehaveatake, @tcbbiggs @roselharding
