Well. This draft shows you how confident the Blazers are in Vonleh.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

high level of toughness

 

[Blazinaway]

makes we wonder if Vonleh stays

 

[Blazinaway]

Well. This draft shows you how confident the Blazers are in Vonleh.

you beat me to it, yeah, hard to see him here much longer

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Sounds like a Paul Millsap type of dude (admittedly, I know very little of him, but the few things I'm reading...).

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

He is from Indiana..... lol

 

[DaLincolnJones]

woot I like this guy

 

[Strenuus]

Swanigan... "Oh, I like his body. big size."

Weakness: Defense. :MARIS61:

 

[Sarni]

Good pick!

 

[DaLincolnJones]

and some said PDX needed a bruiser? got ya, Hold My Beer!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

let's get back in and get derrick white now. Do we even have room on the roster?

 

[Driew]

Well. This draft shows you how confident the Blazers are in Vonleh.

I'm sure they're still confident in Vonleh--just making sure they have a backup plan if some team decides to offer Vonleh a max contract. Only way we match a max for Vonleh is if he has a breakout season and wins MIP haha

 

[BonesJones]

Probably means Davis and Aminu will be gone. Wouldn't be surprised if we traded one of them for a 2nd round pick.

 

[BonesJones]

So right now we got Swanigan, Davis, Aminu, Vonleh, Collins, Nurkic, and Leonard as big men.

Safe to say we'll trade one of them.

Well. This draft shows you how confident the Blazers are in Vonleh.

Or in Nurks health. Welp

 

[Driew]

Swanigan has a 7'3 wingspan...and Collins has a 7'1 wingspan but is like 4 inches taller lol

 

[Scalma]

I can't believe all these teams are passing on Draymond bell!

 

[illmatic99]

2 way contracts!

 

[Strenuus]

So right now we got Swanigan, Davis, Aminu, Vonleh, Collins, Nurkic, and Leonard as big men.

Please be leonard, please be leonard, please be leonard....

 

[Scalma]

It's more likely that Meyers is gone. Maybe Davis.

 

[B-Roy]

So Utah payed the 42nd pick to move up two spots.

REALLY?

 

[BrianFromWA]

2 way contracts!

can't do it with 1sts. They have the 'guaranteed' rookie scale. 2nds and UFAs can do the hybrid

 

[illmatic99]

Nvm sigh

 

[illmatic99]

Well there's two dudes in philly that might have something to say

 

[BonesJones]

REALLY?

Must've really liked Bradley, and I think San Antonio was going to take him.

 

[illmatic99]

Collins coming up on courtside

 

[Cippy91]

Well there's two dudes in philly that might have something to say

I mean this is what they all say though.

 

[Driew]

Anyone know if NO is doing a press conference after the draft?

 

[DaLincolnJones]

ML 2.0...?

 

[PDXFonz]

BIGGY BIGGY BIGGY CANT YOU SEE
