Welcome back to yet another edition of Blazing the Path

(@blazingthepath) hosted by Corban Ford (@corbannba) and Rob

Hetherington (rob_heth). Corban and Rob are joined by none other than

Tara Bowen-Biggs (Twitter: "Team Mom" @tcbbiggs) herself! With much

podcasting experience formerly with Blazer"s Edge and other ventures,

Tara is currently a cohost on "We Have a Take" (@wehaveatake) and

Stepback Sisterhood (@StepbackSisters), providing interesting and

insightful coverage of RipCity as well as other aspects of current/past

NBA. Tara joins alongside Rob and Corban to breakdown her thoughts on

the NBA Preseason, not only diving into her nervousness about the

Blazers' performance but also evaluating some teams/young cores who have

stood out across the league. The focus of the discussion then shifts to

a bubbly preview of both the Eastern and Western Conference Divisions.

Last but of course not least comes the Western Conference's Northwest

Division Preview which of course includes the concerns and hopes for the

team out West Tara and her fellow Oregonians holds dear- your Portland

Trail Blazers!
