Game Thread BLAZERS SUMMER LEAGUE 2024

[Natebishop3]

Murray has looked decent so far.

 

[B-Roy]

Rupert gives me major Aminu vibes, in none of the good ways.

 

[Natebishop3]

This is gonna be a long summer league.

It's just interesting because one of the knocks on Salaun was that he doesn't have a feel for the game yet, and I see that same thing with Rupert.

 

[Mediocre Man]

This game is important if for no other reason than to remind me how shitty the season will be

 

[B-Roy]

Rupert feels like he’s in panic mode whenever he has the ball.

 

[Natebishop3]

Nice steal from Rupes!

Eh, at least the regular season will have Scoot/Shae/Deni.

 

[Chris Craig]

I see why Mcgowens was waived by the hornets.

 

[TYDame]

Rupert is like Grant, no handles at all

 

[Natebishop3]

Clingan just seems slow. I'm sure he's gonna be fine but first impression is..... journeyman big man. I don't see how people thought he was the best player in the draft.

Biggest thing that stands out to me is that he doesn't seem to look completely uncoordinated like most rookies. He's good at going straight up and trying to avoid contact. I think he can play right away. But how good is a center that's just not really an offensive threat at all?

 

[B-Roy]

Our guards are….something.

 

[Natebishop3]

Jameer Nelson Jr....... wtf

 

[Chris Craig]

Is there anyone on this team that knows how to play the game of basketball.

People saying to trade Ayton are foolish.

 

[FlashWad]

Yeah I could see another decade of missing the playoffs

 

[perkinsfor3]

Gang's all here.

 

[Cugel]

Nobody can fucking shoot. I can’t believe anyone anywhere would think Ayton can be traded. Nfw

 

[TYDame]

This offensive plays are the same as our real team. It’s just sad

Scoot isn’t good enough to be just sitting there.

Scoot should be playing smh he needs the practice

 

[Natebishop3]

Is every SL team required to carry at least two absolutely garbage guards?

 

[Chris Craig]

Can they suit up?

 

[Chris Craig]

Just ours

 

[PCmor7]

Really, Scoot needed to play for his own sake and for the sake of everyone else on the team. These guards can't even get us into an offense.

 

[Tince]

I'm just here to read the career projections after 1 quarter in summer league. That model is fail proof.

 

[Natebishop3]

Scoot isn’t good enough to be just sitting there.

How many times does this need to be said....

Scoot needs reps against starter caliber NBA players. Not against Jameer Nelson Jr.

If you really need to see Scoot against summer league competition, here you go.

 

[julius]

Clingan looks good. Tho he looks like he's one of those fat kids who got tall and you can tell he's not muscular.

That's about it.

 

[bemac]

Scoot should be playing smh he needs the practice

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's getting quality practice in, and a few games of rat ball is not going to add anything. Health season is all that matters.

 

[illmatic99]

clingan has to sit in deep drop.

spurs getting anything they want on offense as long as they don't go to the rim.
