In this episode, Oregon Sports News Senior Writers Casey Mabbott and Bryant Knox discuss the Portland Trail Blazers’ activity in free agency, how they look in Summer League, what the Western Conference will look like in 2019, and if Damian LiIlard and company will make the playoffs.
Casey Mabbott is a writer and podcast host born and raised in West Philadelphia where he spent most of his days on the basketball court perfecting his million dollar jumpshot.

Casey enjoys all sports and covering them with written words or spoken rants. He has made an art of movie references, and is a devout follower of 80's movies and music. I don't know why you would to, but you can probably find him on the street corner waiting for the trolley to take him to the stadium or his favorite pub, where he will be telling people the answers to questions they don’t remember asking. And it only goes downhill from there if he drinks. He’s a real treat.
