At #26, the Blazers select Swanigan

[The Professional Fan]

Who gives a fuck about jay bilas

He's a whiny bitch imo

 

[Haakzilla]

Wouldn't be surprised if they trade this pick later on this evening. Either that, or some other bigs are out the door.

...I'd be happy if they didn't trade this pick! I can get onboard Z-Bo 2.0, his game was fun to watch during March Madness. Now can we trade Meyers already or what?!

 

[joeBlazers]

intriguing.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

steal..next ken faried or milsap

 

[TBpup]

Blazer's front court:

Nurkic/Leonard/Davis/Ezeli
Vonleh/Collins/Swanigan
.....and Aminu plays stretch-4.

Something else is going to happen.

Is zbo a good defender?

Is zbo a valuable nba player?

Is zbo a good defender?

Is zbo a valuable nba player?

Has zbo ever sniffed a championship?

ZBo is awesome.

 

[joeBlazers]

We could trade for Nic Batum and have him play the #3 for us.
Dame, CJ, Batum, Zac, Nurk ... How do you like this lineup?

 

[ripcityboy]

Yeah. We Loaded up on front court players but still lack a defense wing. That was something we desperately need.... at least Bell had the speed to do some mismatches. We need still another quick D player.

Will Swanigan be more than a roll player? There's always room for dudes that can score. Especially in today's NBA. Gotta keep up

 

[riverman]

Has zbo ever sniffed a championship?

off season he probably has sniffed a few just not basketball

 

[RoyToy]

This is an awful pick. He lacks any real athleticism and can't guard a single position on the court.

Hopefully he's being traded to another team

 

[Scalma]

Has Chris Paul

 

[Pinwheel1]

I remember during the Tourney, posters wanted him with our 1st pick. Now people are asking who is he?

 

[Sinobas]

Over Bell :-/

Interesting pick though.

I was hoping for Bell as well. I'm wondering if they are hoping this guy can be a backup center though. He's got a huge wingspan, and is a strong 250, and gobbles up rebounds.

Meaningless argument. Anyone can win a championship with the right teammates.

This sounds exactly like zbo lol. Zbo is legit. Would love him on this team x100

Adam Morrison has two

 

[PHXBlazer1]

I think this guy could average a double double

 

[BrianFromWA]

Not the same posters.

 

[Nhawz]

Cliff Alexander?

 

[TBpup]

It's why I was hoping OG would fall to #26. Bell can play defense on 2-3 positions but offensively, he doesn't have a spot. OG would have been solid on offense and very good on defense.

He looks like he gobbles everything.

 

[Eastoff]

I like this pick!

I see what you did there.

 

[PCmor7]

I keep feeling Swanigan will not be a Blazer by the end of the night.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Were gonna look back on this pick fondly

 

[tlongII]

I'm ready for Summer League!

Hopefully Neil's working the phones.

 

[0-Our!]

steal..next ken faried or milsap

He BETTER B the next Milsap. IF he's the next/close to Faried... oh bloody-fuquin' hell!
