MEDIA DAY THREAD (1 Viewer)

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Grant asked if he is prepared to come off the bench and how we would handle it…… he said,”Nah, I don’t really expect that to happen.”
 
JG asked about after his exit interview if he planned on being here this season and he said, “Definitely not”.
 
Said he’s , “Happy that he’s here right, right now” Then stream stopped.
 
Jrue on Yang…… he’s huge, very smart,mobility and his passing!
 
Jrue said DC hasn’t blocked his shot since! Said he wanted to wear number 11 here, his original number, but that wasn’t’ an option. Wonder why?
 
I'll figure out what I want to talk about or what topic I want to start, but thank you. This is a topic about a particular article that I read and the concept of Jeremi Grant as a guard. This isn't about the starting five. Thank you anyways though. Appreciate the offer of help. Maybe you should step up your game HCP, I've seen much more tenacious forum fuzz out there.

So I think the best thing that will come out from today will be Hansen’s interpreter and him using the term …….. ChinGlish as to how he speaks. Love it! Hope this kid succeeds!
 
Jrue is going to start for sure, probably was very likely anyways but with the Scoot injury its guaranteed.

I bet Grant starts. He rebounds like a small guard so its all fine there.

Blazers would rather make the mistake of starting Grant when he shouldn't but then have Sharpe or someone else take his place during the year. If they started someone else who later didn't outplay Grant they can't really move the Grant as the longest tenured Blazer back into the starting role easily as he will be insulted. Not saying I agree with it that's just how the league and veterans work.

I am kind of interested to see what Grant does this year. With all the talk from fans and the media and everything. Might be cool to see him come out and explode into a serious player. Maybe he could pull a Lauri Markkanan?

In this house, we revere Meyers Leonard!

Bryce McGowens seems to have that number sewn up.
 
If Sharpe doesn’t start that means he’s not the franchise player we think he can be, or CB shouldn’t be our head coach. It’s one or the other
 
Grant seems like a disgruntled veteran even while having a starting spot.

I don't see that dynamic working well at all throughout this season. I almost wonder if it would be best for both sides to explore buyout options - it's horrible from a cap perspective though, but not sure we'll ever do anything with his contract as is.

Kind of worried Jrue might become this same situation at a point too. The Dame and Scoot injuries at least will keep that from being a problem at day1 but that could be the next ticking time bomb.

Just perplexing how the Blazers management continually collects overpaid veterans that have a self inflated ego. Hopefully with Bert Kolde leaving and the new owners coming in this changes.
