LV Summer League game 2, Blazers vs Mavs - Game thread

[EL PRESIDENTE]

nice follow up by Frazier.

 

[LuckyShot]

Frazier trying to pad his stats by missing shots so he can rebound them

 

[Darkwebs]

Frazier gets his own board over the big guy and puts it back in

 

[Natebishop3]

Crap. Looks like Crabbe hurt his shoulder. It'd better not be serious

He's a righty though, right?

 

[Darkwebs]

Oooh. Pat with a nice drive and finish

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Fuck this Audio feed cutting in and out. Trying to hear Olshey

 

[ripcityboy]

Olshey could sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman in white gloves. I wish I had his selling ability.

 

[Darkwebs]

I love how we're trying to bury this Dallas team

 

[Natebishop3]

#8 is a shitty chucker. I don't know who that is, but I hate seeing him on the court.

 

[Further]

Why should he?

Well I am a huge Meyers guy. I understand CJ is more proven, but I see more potential in Meyers, mostly because his physical attributes. But it's nice to hear NO give a pretty honest assessment instead of stroking the cocks of all his players like some gm's do.

It's really fucking annoying.

 

[Mediocre Man]

I'm loving hearing Olshey getting interviewed tonight. You could tell from his answer he just loves CJ but doesn't have that same feeling about Meyers.

They could have just interviewed me. I'd have said the same thing

Rashad James, I believe. He's a terrible PG.

 

[Natebishop3]

That's for sure.

We'll find out this year what he is worth.

 

[ripcityboy]

Powell sure has some nice post up moves near the basket. He has a future

 

[Mediocre Man]

17-17 so far this quarter. I can't deal with this pressure

 

[LuckyShot]

Are we teaching these guys to run and jump at every single shooter?

 

[Darkwebs]

Dawkins can shoot

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

If NO isn't sold on Meyers at this point, that makes me nervous.

"Lillard also thinks a lot like the Blazers' front office. When team officials took Lillard to dinner during his predraft visit to Portland, they picked his brain on the draft. If they selected him with the No. 6 pick, they asked, whom would he select at No. 11?

His answer? Meyers Leonard."

Don't worry. He didn't say anything bad about him. He just didn't go overboard to praise him.

 

[Sinobas]

12 ppg, 3 boards, 2 assists...... really exciting.

Like 3 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist

Again, I ask have you seen him play? If there is one thing Henderson is not, it's boring.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Roger that. Thanks for the clarification dude.

Crabbe is a shooter. Henderson is not. With Aminu out there, I think they're going to want a spot up guy. Crabbe fits that role perfectly.

Vonleh grades his game a C.
He looks like somebody, but I can't quite figure out who it is.

I'm willing to bet NB has seen very little of Hendo. He's a smart, solid, steady and crafty vet. A guy that can perform but still teach a lot of little things to our young roster. He has value as a contributor on the floor, as a mentor, and as a reasonable contract. To be honest, he'd be a great 5/6/7th man on a contender.

BTW, that's not a knock on NB. I can't follow every player in the L. I've just followed Hendo since he came up, since I'm a Duke fan. Hendo is underrated.

PROBABLY THAT NAKED 7 FOOT BLACK MAN IN YOUR DREAMS.

or chris bosh.

Crabbe only shot 2 more % better than Henderson from 3 last year. And he can't get to the rim nearly as well as Henderson.

Crabbe needs to become consistent. He misses a lot of shots, open or contested. The form is pretty, the result is often not so much...

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Crabbe ain't no Tracy Murray.
