Hoops and Talks with Jamie Hudson, NBC Sports Northwest Trail Daddy: A Trail Blazers Podcast Hosted by Dave Deckard

    • Basketball

Jamie Hudson of NBC Sports Northwest joined us to talk about what she will remember about the season (so far), what she misses about basketball, how reporting on the NBA has changed since the suspension of the league and how she is spending her time at home. It was so great to talk to her and hear her cheerful voice. 
Basketball marathons, games to re-watch, Gary Trent Jr coming into his own, Instagram baby dance parties, covering Carmelo Anthony, finding her voice as a reporter, Below Deck vs 90 Day fiance, we’ve got a smorgasbord of topics for anyone hungry for basketball (and basketball adjacent) talk. 
1:00 Icebreaker: What makes the perfect basketball game marathon?
6:00 What stood out about the Trail Blazers’ season so far?
9:30 What is it about basketball that you miss the most right now?
13:15 What were some of the highlights for Jamie as a reporter this season?
18:00 What is Jamie doing with the league suspended?
21:30 Making a pitch for shows to binge: 90 Day Fiance vs Below Deck.
26:30 In what ways has Jamie’s job changed since the league was suspended and everyone is staying home?
28:00 Listener questions from @roselharding What’s Jamie’s picks for most re-watchable Blazers games this season? I have them all on DVR and I def need to start re-watching them soon... for sanity.
31:00 Reflections on being in LA for the Laker game after Kobe died. It was incredible how such a big crowd was also so silent. 
35:30 From listener Rachael: I'd love to know how she has made the space for herself to develop as a reporter where she is, especially with really big personalities like Dwight Jaynes dominating the same space.
39:00 @Burlacious_M What is likely the most interesting Blazer subplot to cover for this coming off-season?
41:00 What will the basketball be like after the players have not been allowed to play in groups?
44:00 How are teams keeping up with each other and staying connected?
45:00 We hope Jusuf Nuckic heard us chanting his name at 12:30 on March 15 which would have been his return.
