Did the Blazers win?

Was able to catch a bit of it, Baze played well from what I saw!

Look at all those Winterhawk banners yo

 

[Hoopguru]

Mario pushes the ball which is a nice addition. Even more so than ET did.

It's being shown on NBC Sports NW at 8:30 tonight.

In the waaaay to early to evaluate players category......Watching Hoard and Little during summer league and today, Hoard looks more like our pick and Little the undrafted player. Hoard is playing like he has something to prove. Little looks star struck and more like the undrafted player. Again, waaaaaay to early. Something to keep an eye on going forward because of Nassir's sudden slip in the draft.

not in oregon. they used to stream on facebook.

Guess even a free scrimmage needs to be behind a paywall now with the highest payroll in the league.

I was really hoping for Grant Williams, but the Celtics took him 3 picks earlier. He's looking good so far

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Boxscore?

 

[tlongII]

The Timbers played great today.

 

[Hoopguru]

Ant looked good, but that shot of his certainly is different, which is fine.

 

[tester551]

Can anyone give a quick synopsis of the players at fanfest?

Heard that Baze won MVP & that Hoard looked good. I'm assuming Dame & CJ played very limited minutes....

How was Ant, GT, & others

God damn that was a fun game despite the horrific officiating.

No Valeri?

 

[The Professional Fan]

Simons didn’t score 50?

Bust

LMAO, 2-7 but he was +14 in a preseason game so of course that's all you notice.

 

[Wade Garrett]

It really just hit me....
Pau Gasol is a freaking TrailBLazer!!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

So the 9 rebounds in 18 minutes mean nothing?

9 rebounds in one preseason game is not enough to warrant saying someone is "looking good so far."

I bow to your superior knowledge. Please alert me when the correct amount of time has elapsed.

I don't see why not....eye of the beholder. 9 boards in that short time span is production. He wasn't going up against Nurk or Hassan or Pau so it's not like the pressure was that high but if a guy crashes the glass...I'll cheer.

We're talking about Grant Williams of the Celtics.

It has nothing to do with knowledge. If you're going to post a preseason boxscore saying someone is good you just might want to make sure it actually looks good but I'm sure that +14 got you.

 

[riverman]

That's irrelevant to my post though....if someone sees someone in preseason and likes their game, good on em. Doesn't matter how they get there. I just saw highlights of the games myself but if someone points a player out...no problem. I've learned about so many players from Rasta's posts over the years that I welcome his input...he's my go to read for Euro players every season. I'm also a guy who thought Victor Claver was going to be a Blazer rotation player for years his first season.
