Zombie Blazers VS NO game thread, bitches (lillard's first summer league game)

[julius]

You know how they say that some players seem to look like they're a step slow, but in a good way? like, Brandon Roy always looked like he was a step low, but it was never a problem.

I think both Lillard and Babbitt are like that. Although with Lillard it's because he's a few steps ahead of the defender and can throttle it at a moments notice. Babbitt is just slow.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

So the way that Lillard drives, I'm seeing flashbacks of Brandon Roy.

Posted that here the others night. He's a PG version of Roy, IMO.

Babbitt doing work.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I'm liking how Lillard is able to change speed and direction as well as he can. Encouraging signs from the young guys.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Barton!

 

[ironcrotch]

I'll be honest, I was kind of worried about him.

It's just one SL game, so I wouldn't read too much into it, but Rivers has got a ways to go.

The problem is they're shoe horning Rivers into the PG spot, not his game. I hope for Rivers this experiemnt doesn't last too long.

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

You guys still wish we took Rivers? lol...

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Barton!

 

[Nikolokolus]

Man I had my doubts about our draft picks, but I couldn't be happier about them now.

Easy chachi, it's one SL game.

 

[Nikolokolus]

You guys still wish we took Rivers? lol...

Who is this "youguys?" I've never seen him post here before?

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

HE MISSED! TRADE HIM! ... and wtf was that meyers

 

[maxiep]

I'd love for us to re-sign Przy just to be Leonard's sensei in getting under other players' skins.

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

Who is this "youguys?" I've never seen him post here before?

Well, it was a generalizing statement. But I remember in all our pre-draft threads, a lot of people would've taken Rivers at 6 or what not. Most people were either very against or very pro drafting him,

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Leonard knows how to set a pick; keep Joel to refine his skills!

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Bring back Joel (vet min.) and let him mentor Meyers.

 

[maxiep]

Not to go HCP on you, but make a few more posts before making jackass generalizations.

 

[Darkwebs]

Whoa! Leonard showing strength!!

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

MEYERS

 

[Natebishop3]

I will say this, Roy had a much nicer shot it looks like.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well, it was a generalizing statement. But I remember in all our pre-draft threads, a lot of people would've taken Rivers at 6 or what not. Most people were either very against or very pro drafting him,

There were a few on each side, but most people were probably close to neutral.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Leonard has a little mean in his game!

 

[Blazinaway]

fukkin Leonard, put him down big boy! Love this kid!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

So.... Yeah I like Leonard. He'll take time, but I like him.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Leonard has a Pryzbilla-esque meanstreak.

 

[Darkwebs]

Clutch shot by Damian

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Woo!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Wow Dame!!

 

[Natebishop3]

I think Leonard will turn out to be a steal at #11.

 

[MARIS61]

Babbit taught him that.
