Blazer's Edge Pod: Mailbag Edition!

The Blazer's Edge podcast returns after a long hiatus to take on some Mailbag questions with host Danny Marang. On the pod Danny hits on where he's been - some announcements, addresses the "trade CJ McCollum" article, then dives into some offseason questions as the Portland Trail Blazers look to gear up for what might be a quick turnaround from the 2020 NBA season. Intro Opening comments We’re back! Mailbag Questions!
