Malik Beasley at center of gambling investigation; Pistons pause deal talks with free agent, per reportOne of the NBA's top free agents is now the subject of a serious gambling investigation from the U.S. District Attorney's office.

Do they have a plan? Are more moves coming?

An already confusing offseason becomes even more so

This week on the podcast I talk about the Boston Celtics trading away Jrue Holiday to the Portland Trailblazers and Kristaps Porzingis to the Atlanta Hawks. 

Before the NBA's free agency period even began, the Portland Trail Blazers had already addressed two of their biggest offseason questions by jettisoning Deandre Ayton and trading away Anfernee Simons. By moving off the high-dollar contracts of two veteran players who no longer fit the team's timeline or identity, general manager Joe Cronin has cleared the runway for the team's young core to either sink or swim.On this week's episode of the Oregonian Sports Podcast, hosts Bill Oram and Brenna Greene react to the Blazers flurry of swift and decisive moves. Also discussed on the episode:• Can the Blazers complete the sweep and find a taker for Jerami Grant, as well?• Is Jrue Holiday really unhappy about being traded to Portland?• Why drafting Yang Hansen was either brilliant or brainless• How Portland's WNBA franchise turned a negative into a positive with its front-office shakeup• Do the hosts like Texas State as the final addition to the reimagined Pac-12?

Noa Dalzell joins the NBA BIT to talk about the Boston Celtics offseason chaos, draft picks, and her experience covering the Boston Celtics.

The Portland Trail Blazers introduced Yang Hansen to the media after selecting him with the 16th pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Will he fit in here?

In Hour 1, Danny and Dusty react to Yang Hansen's introductory press conference with the Portland Trail Blazers, debate how Chauncey Billups will use him in the rotation this season, and more.

What kind of player is new Blazers center Yang Hansen, and how long will it take for him to feel comfortable in Portland?

Hour 1 We started the show with the NBA draft which was last night and how the Knicks still don't have a head coach. They better have one soon as we head into free agency. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the NBA draft. ESPN announced that Portland drafted ‘Colin Cowherd' and also misidentified Cooper Flagg twice. Boomer asked if there was Buzz, or No Buzz, with the Nets. The Mets finally beat the Braves as Juan Soto hit 2 HRs. Jerry just called Jazz Chisholm ‘Jizzm'. In the final segment of the hour, Sydney Esiason says farewell to ‘WAG Life' now that Matt Martin has retired. Hour 2 Reports indicate NFL owners colluded in 2022 to limit player guarantees, using emails about Kyler Murray and Justin Herbert, a fact the NFLPA allegedly withheld from players. In sports, the Yankees beat the Reds (Dominguez 4-for-5), and the Mets topped the Braves with Jeff McNeil's great catch and Juan Soto's two homers. Cooper Flagg was the NBA's top draft pick. Other topics included an impaled lifeguard, George Kittle on the Vasper bike, and a humorous anecdote about former colleague Mark Chernoff. Hour 3 The hour began with baseball, noting the Yankees' series against the A's and the Mets' games against the Braves and Pirates. They discussed "triple digit sizzlers" (100+ mph pitches) and the existence of Sizzler restaurants. A caller raised concerns about the Knicks' lack of a head coach. Jerry's update highlighted Mets and Yankees wins, with Juan Soto hitting two homers. Two Rutgers players were drafted in the NBA, and Morehead State will honor Phil Simms. The hour concluded with a discussion about Counting Crows' tour and pre-show setlist viewing. Hour 4 The NBA draft saw the Nets not use their five picks to move up, while the Knicks continued their head coach search. Nick Van Exel blamed injuries on low-top sneakers. The Yankees avoided a sweep, the Mets beat the Braves (Soto 2 HRs), and a hurdler had an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction. ESPN mistakenly said the Trailblazers drafted "Colin Cowherd." The "Moment of the Day" was an NBA trade involving Jeanie Buss's panties. The show ended discussing the Knicks' coaching search and their urgent championship window.

No, that's not the guy from Duke. Hansen is a 7-foot-1 center, dubbed the “Chinese Jokic” on social media and very much a project for a Portland team coming off a 36-46 season. “Yeah, it might take him a little time, but as he figures o…

The Homey, Mike Richman host of the LockedOnBlazers podcast, returns to the Ticker just as confused as we are by the Yang Hansen pick especially in conjunction with the Jrue Holiday trade.

Send us a textOn this special 2025 NBA Draft Edition of the Brief Case, presented by Spirit Mountain Casino, Trail Blazers beat reporter/Insider Casey Holdahl discusses...• The Trail Blazers trading the draft rights to Cedric Coward for Chinese center Yang Hansen, a 2028 first-round pick and second-round picks in the 2027 and 2028 Drafts• Portland shocking the NBA and the media by keeping their selection secret• The reasons the Trail Blazers targeted Hansen, who they have been scouting for at least the last two years• Is Yang Hansen "Chinese Jokic" or "Sino Sabonis" • The Trail Blazers having five centers on their roster

But we do know the Blazers can't go into the season with 5 centers

Blazers trade back to #16 to select 7'1" Yang Hansen from the Chinese Basketball Association... was it a reach?

Draft consultant for NBA Big Board was the only person we could find who had Yang Hansen as a 1st-round pick

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss how Jrue Holiday's trade from the Boston Celtics to the Portland Trail Blazers will affect the Chicago Bulls' future NBA Draft positioning. The Trail Blazers owe the Bulls a first round pick from a trade that has yet to convey. Does getting Holiday put the Blazers farther away from the NBA Draft Lottery? And will that mean the Bulls will have a worse pick?

The nerds react to a series of surprising NBA trades, as the Boston Celtics moved off of Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis to shed salary, while the Portland Trailblazers and Atlanta Hawks took advantage of the fire-sale to try to win now. Also, the Washington Wizards traded Jordan Poole to the New Orleans Pelicans for CJ McCollum, for some reason. Timestamps00:00:18 - Kristaps Porzingis trade00:19:36 - Simons/Holiday trade00:42:39 - Poole/McCollum trade
