Blazers Broadcast Team in Major Shake-Up | NBA News

The Portland Trail Blazers are undergoing a brutal cost-cutting overhaul under new owner Tom Dundon, axing key broadcast voices like Kevin Calabro, Neil Everett, and Jamie Hudson — and even letting go of analytics guru Tom Haberstroh. The lone radio announcer may return, but only with a 50% pay cut. This aggressive purge mirrors Dundon’s NHL playbook with the Carolina Hurricanes — where he slashed staff, renovated arenas, and prioritized on-ice wins — ultimately leading to a Stanley Cup. While Paul Allen’s legacy of lavish spending made these cuts shocking, Dundon’s strategy is clear: strip away the excess to build a lean, winning machine — even if it means alienating the NBA’s traditional power structure.
