Game Thread 2023 SUMMER LEAGUE GAME 1: BLAZERS VS ROCKETS - JULY 7TH 2023 - FRIDAY - 4PM ESPN

Keon is already out? That dude has no future here.

 

[UKBlazer]

Ummm, I’d say this kid makes Lillard expendable.

I’ve watched lots of highlight packages and have been smitten for awhile. Just watching him live though and everything else he does I’m really impressed.

Don’t know about all that but it’s defo ridiculous to have them in the same team.

Scoot is a pure point guard.

 

[TBpup]

First possession with Scoot out.....Turnover.

 

[BlazerBeav]

 

[LayneStaley]

Roops looks like a baby fawn out there.

 

[Trail Rhino]

Scoot gets compared to Westbrook a lot, but he has a lot of Chris Paul’s playing making.

 

[B-Roy]

It's refreshing watching how well Badji moves after being used to Nurk for so long.

 

[LayneStaley]

Is Sharpe hurt or something?

 

[maxiep]

Rupert is even rawer than I assumed.

 

[Natebishop3]

Vecenie loves scoot.

 

[EGame]

well this game turned ugly fast lol

 

[BigGameDamian]

Scoot is the real deal and plays at his own speed and you can't speed him up.

Russell Westbrook vibes?

 

[Sloth]

If this was our starting 5, we'd be 0-82.

 

[Natebishop3]

Is Sharpe hurt or something?

Here he comes.

 

[Natebishop3]

Rupert isn't ready man.

 

[B-Roy]

I'm a Badji fan.

 

[blazerfan11]

Scoot is a 19-year-old veteran.

he needs some young vets to play with.

 

[Natebishop3]

Rupert needs to put on weight. He keeps getting bodied.

 

[TBpup]

Badji just stonewalled Whitmore on that drive. Some nice defensive instincts.

 

[Quatro44]

Badji is a wall

 

[BlazerBeav]

Rupert isn't ready man.

I didn’t expect anything. He sounded like a project.

 

[B-Roy]

Dude Badji is awesome.

 

[MickZagger]

Don’t know about all that but it’s defo ridiculous to have them in the same team.

Scoot is a pure point guard.

It’s obvious the future is more important than our aging star. We might have dodged a bullet. Around 33 is usually when PG’s with high mileage start to break down. And they can break down FAST

 

[FlashWad]

Im so happy we got Scoot. Cya Dame.

 

[andalusian]

Rupert isn't ready man.

Correct, but you can see why they got him, he got the tools

 

[blazerfan11]

I think the smallest player as wide as Scoot is Jabari Walker.

 

[MadeFromDust]

How does Dame not want to play with this guy?

Do you feel like there may be some jealousy involved?

 

[B-Roy]

 

[DDolla]

Michael Jordan gift to the Blazers is Scoot

 

[SwissBlazer]

2 am here. Worth the wait. The hype is real
