Portland Trail Blazers GM Kevin Pritchard Headlines This Weekend's Edition of SBR

Terrific show lined up for you this weekend. Portland Trail Blazers GM Kevin Pritchard and Minnesota Timberwolves President Chris Wright will be my guests. Pritchard has done a remarkable job reshaping the Trail Blazers roster over the past few seasons and has assembled quite possibly the finest collection of talent of any team in the NBA. The Trail Blazers won 54 games this season and have a bright future. I'll chat with Pritchard about the Trail Blazers what this offseason may hold with several NBA owners hurting financially and more willing to shed payroll and Pritchard will talk a little bit about the art of making a deal. Chris Wright and the Timberwolves have done some outside of the box" thinking in light of this terrible economy. We'll learn what the T-Wolves are doing to sell tickets and attract fans in our "Sweet Success" segment sponsored by Moose Tracks ice cream. We'll also discuss the business surrounding the NBA Finals and the NHL Stanley Cup (by the way can't Commissioners Stern and Bettman get together and make sure not to schedule games on the same night). Talk to you this weekend across our worldwide radio network in Portland on 95.5FM The Game (4-7pm on Sunday) or ON DEMAND via our iTunes podcast (we're ranked in the Top 100 for Business News podcasts on iTunes).
