About Jason Poulsen
As a former collegiate basketball player, with a great deal of emphasis on the former, my passion for the game has since led me on quite the journey. Writing for the Oregon Sports News, along with the effort I’m putting in to finally get a long ago developed proprietary basketball performance analytical tool off the ground, represent full circle moments. There have been a multitude of stops & roles along the way, the pertinent ones being Assistant to Director of Basketball Operations, Basketball Operations Assistant, NBA Draft Statistical Analyst, & Sports Writer, & the less pertinent – Store Manager, Lids Sports Group. I suppose one hasn’t really lived unless they’ve worked in retail or so I’ve told myself.

Portland Trail Blazers Season-In-Review – Let’s Talk About Scoot Henderson

April 22, 2024 Jason Poulsen Comments Off on Portland Trail Blazers Season-In-Review – Let’s Talk About Scoot Henderson

To quote previously rumored to be Vice-Presidential Candidate Aaron Rogers: “Five letters here, just for everybody out there in [Blaz]erland: R-E-L-A-X.  Relax.  [He’s] going to be fine.” Four basic boxes need to be checked for an NBA player […]

“The Process,” As I’ve Come To Call This Portland Trail Blazers Season, Has Been Oh So Painful

April 8, 2024 Jason Poulsen 1

But don’t worry; the bleeding will stop soon enough when the season ends on April 14th. The hits seem to keep on coming: As cruel as this season has been, an April Fool’s joke it […]

This Small Ball Era, If That’s What We’re Even Calling It, Has Not Been Kind To The Portland Trail Blazers

November 13, 2023 Jason Poulsen Comments Off on This Small Ball Era, If That’s What We’re Even Calling It, Has Not Been Kind To The Portland Trail Blazers

Let’s get this out of the way right up front – the NBA is NOT in a Small Ball Era. It simply can’t be when players are bigger, faster, longer, and stronger than ever. Per […]

LeBron James – Stat Chaser?

September 11, 2023 Jason Poulsen Comments Off on LeBron James – Stat Chaser?

Contrary to appearances, with no love lost for LeBron in Rip City, this headline is more than clickbait. It’s a legitimate question worthy of discussion. Clear back in mid-January of this year, I couldn’t take […]

It’s Time For The Portland Trail Blazers To Raise The White Flagg (Pun Intended)

August 21, 2023 Jason Poulsen Comments Off on It’s Time For The Portland Trail Blazers To Raise The White Flagg (Pun Intended)

First, what my brother and I call non-breaking breaking news. Otherwise, all is quiet on the Portland Trail Blazers Front. An uninteresting but positive development as far as I’m concerned. The reason being? This silent […]

NBA’s Memo On Damian Lillard’s Trade Request – A Case Study In Semantics

August 1, 2023 Jason Poulsen Comments Off on NBA’s Memo On Damian Lillard’s Trade Request – A Case Study In Semantics
