Blazers vs Spurs Summer League Game Thread #2

[Natebishop3]

Anyone who doesn't see the potential from vonleh is fucking blind.

 

[BonesJones]

Connaughton is a guard that can't dribble, pass, or consistently shoot.

 

[PDXFonz]

Kyle Anderson is a baller

 

[Natebishop3]

That was smooth. Like to see more of that from pat.

Kyle Anderson is a baller

It sickens me. The Spurs annoy me so fucking much.

 

[BBert]

Spurs make their threes. We pretty much don't.

 

[BonesJones]

Wow ref

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Vonleh looks really good against SL talent, his problem is the speed of actual NBA games. If he can get past that we may have a premier big in 3 or so years.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Vonleh is one of those guys that looks smaller than he is to me.. is it just me? He does not look like a 6'10" guy. More like 6'8"

 

[Natebishop3]

Wait how was that a foul on us?

 

[BonesJones]

Vonleh could be a good passer. He's already solid for how much he looks down when he dribbles.

 

[ripcityboy]

Honestly. Pat quiting cowhide ball isn't a big deal. They draft 40 guys a season! Half of them don't sign..... this is not the equivalent of the Blazers losing Jordan.

I don't see it. He's taller than Layman.

 

[Natebishop3]

Someone needs to tell NBA refs about the "pulling the chair" technique. It's like they don't understand that you don't have to let someone lean on you.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I want to say something about connaughton but I don't want to get yelled at.

I don't see any potential in Connaughton to become a rotation player in the NBA.

 

[TBpup]

Connaughton is a guard that can't dribble, pass, or consistently shoot.

Sadly, that is true right now. Nice moves and '3' by Vonleh. Connaughton keeps shooting (and missing) so I'm not getting to see as much of Vonleh and Montero as I'd like.

He has a long neck

 

[ripcityboy]

Yeah. I don't see any skills in Connaughton other than athleticism that really stand out. He might be better moving on. Dude keeps setting up 3s.

 

[illmatic99]

Prediction: jake layman will be in rotation and get regular minutes this year for the blazers

 

[VanillaGorilla]

I don't see it. He's taller than Layman.

I just looked up their draft measurements and they were both exactly 6'8" without shoes.

 

[JDC]

Vonleh is taking advantage of a small team with no shot blocking. Really hard to evaluate his offense in a game like this.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Uhh.. Where? Instead of who? We have too many guys that deserve minutes as is. Layman is not going to be able to compete at an actual NBA level right away.

corner three ftw

 

[PDXFonz]

Who's this cutie interviewing CJ?

 

[VanillaGorilla]

He has a long neck

That's probably it.

 

[BonesJones]

Vonleh will become a good offensive player once he develops a consistent jumper. There's no way big men can defend his jumper and stay in front of his jumper. He's good when he's going downhill, he just tries to crossover guys too much because they sag.

I wish we could combine give Vonleh Meyers shooting touch and height.

 

[Driew]

Vonleh is taking advantage of a small team with no shot blocking. Really hard to evaluate his offense in a game like this.

The fact that he's taking advantage of it is promising.

 

[BonesJones]

CJ had no idea how to say her name lmao

 

[ripcityboy]

I love the fact there is good communication in this organization. It's obvious that Dame and CJ talk A LOT. That's so important. I can't think of a team that needs to drown out preconceived notions surrounding the future imite the Blazers.

 

[TBpup]

He has a long neck

Same with Layman. If he had an 'average' neck, he'd be closer to 6'7".
