The guy should be in the starting lineup.

lol he's been averaging close to that in every game.

 

[DDolla]

WOW Jabari !!!

 

[HailBlazers]

Jabari with the put-back!!

 

[Natebishop3]

Holy shit it was Chet wearing a Blazers jersey!

Or you just don’t know what you’re watching.

Or you're a bit of a homer who loves anything and everything the team does.

 

[B-Roy]

I’m pretty confident Keon is gonna be a two way rotation player.

 

[Natebishop3]

This is the basketball that was on that winning streak while we were trying to tank.

 

[Natebishop3]

God I wish Sharpe was playing.

 

[SlyPokerCat]

I’m pretty confident Keon is gonna be a two way rotation player.

Wish I could share that enthusiasm about him. I don't see it at all.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Didn't catch a lot of the game, but what I have, think Walker may very well have been a find.

 

[B-Roy]

I quite like Keon Johnson. Dude plays defense.

 

[SlyPokerCat]

Another turnover for Keon

 

[Natebishop3]

Walker plays within himself. Very much in control. Doesn't look like a rookie at. all.

 

[Natebishop3]

This team gets after it on defense. They run. They move the ball. This is not at all like most summer league.

 

[DDolla]

Imagine if that coach play Jabari in the first game, we could be 3-0 right now

 

[B-Roy]

Another turnover for Keon

You focus on the fact that he couldn’t find an outlet there and not the fact that he caused the turnover? Lol??? You blind?

They learned a lot by playing last year with real NBA players

 

[julius]

Keon isn't bad, he definitely has some rough patches. He plays a little too out of control at times, and could use some fine tuning.

(Now that's a creative way to say the same thing 3 times)

 

[Ed O]

I will say, irrespective of the actual game play level: it's SO FUCKING NICE to have a play by play guy doing some play by play. Telling us which players are, like, doing what.

I complained about Jones and sort of second-guessed myself until I just noticed that this PBP guy wasn't irritating me in spite of how ugly the game has been

I love (not really) that Jackson comes in and says, "No one cares about the put back."

Fuck you, Jackson. Some of us want to watch the game, not hear an hour of jokes about Richard Jefferson reffing (it's fine he did, but I don't want to see less of the game because of it!)

Brockmire demonstrates that the PBP must go on...

Or you're a bit of a homer who loves anything and everything the team does.

Or you need to learn basketball. I’m sure YouTube has some tutorials that would help you out.

 

[SlyPokerCat]

I mean, dude does have 4 turnovers this game. Shooting 37% and only 50% from FT.

He has some moments but let's settle expectations. I don't see him as a NBA player.

lol i thought that was actually great awareness by Keon to make sure he waited and stradled the line until he could pass it into the frontcourt.

people clearly interpret these plays differently

 

[42N8Bounce]

Wow. The Blazers started off the game down by double digits. Now in the 4th quarter they’re up by double digits.

Great turnaround. Solid effort by Walker, Watford, and Brown down the stretch.

 

[Natebishop3]

Walker can't quite get up like Brown, but that was great passing.

 

[LayneStaley]

Not hating but what’s the difference between Walker this Summer League and Biggie his first summer league(besides the shooting). I really really hope he hits but I’m gonna need to see him against non scrubs.

 

[illmatic99]

not a coincidence that jabari is always seemingly in the right place at the right time

 

[TBpup]

Jabari looks like he belongs. 12/13 on 7 shots early in the 4th quarter.
Alexander with 6/6 on 3 shots looking good for the 2nd game in a row.
Brandon....no one is here to see you jack up bricks.

 

[illmatic99]

this is a big game if we want a chance at playing in the final. keep an eye on the point diff

 

[riverman]

Walker with 14 rebounds so far

 

[B-Roy]

I can tell from your posts that you’re already biased against him. Put it this way, even with the raw percentage and missed free throws, he’s still got 11 points on 8 shots.

but I don’t even care about his offense. He’s showing way more on defense which is what is gonna get him on the floor.
