I'm not sure how much Meyers will play. I could see him playing 30mpg or 5. They might just want him around the team and for practice.

I think they want to see How Leonard and Von can co-exist. That maybe the back-up bigs, so lets see how they gel together?

 

[lawai'a]

was thinking of this moment when I saw both players on the roster. was garbage time as we blew them out, if I am remembering it

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I imagine Leonard will just practice with the team and not actually play, or play very little - like Wes (sob!) a few years ago.

No Diez?

Thanks, Obama!

 

[ripcityboy]

Any of the invitees have a chance to make the team?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

So the likely starters and major minutes will go to ... ?

Frazier/ Connaughton/ Crabbe/ Vonleh/ Leonard

Not necessarily; I think this year there are several guys who may be auditioning for Portland roster spots and olshey may want to see a lot of them.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Any of the invitees have a chance to make the team?

Yes. I bet 1 does. But trying to guess which one isn't even worth it until we see them play more.

All of them! That's the beauty of burning your team to the ground!

They need SF help which means someone like Montero could be a#13/14 guy just because he would be inexpensive and does have some shot creator tools in him both for himself and teammates. So raw but there are only a couple of Blazer that can do that. They might see if Vonleh can play a bit at SF as well just to see what happens.

Cut.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Any of the invitees have a chance to make the team?

I think so; I hope Olshey will fill out the roster with guys who actually have a chance to be good someday; rather than guys who have already proved they are mediocre.

Meyers with a filthy dunk over three defenders.

Damnit! I can't watch at the moment. Please keep us posted.

Hope there is video this evening.

 

[magnifier661]

His interview looks like he's ready for the challenge and very confident. He's put his leader hat on. Kinda gave me goose bumps

I know he'll likely start at PF but in the new NBA you have to play Meyers at center.

He looks like he could breakout.

Anticipation is very similar to Dame's rookie year, and LaMarsha's second year. He's sticking with that "I'm a 4.5" he mentioned earlier this summer. I like that.

I really do hope he plays in SL. As fans, we deserve some sort of excitement and good news after our team got dismantled in a week.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

@CHold: Meyers also said he slept with a fan on last night, which resulted in a sore throat today.>>>>>

Hmmm.

I missed 'on' at first glance.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

He looks like he could breakout.

There are creams for that.

Olshey MUST sign Andre Dawkins, seems like an amazing shooter! we lost Wesly's shooting and Dawkins can be great for us.

Blazer SL player Andre Dawkins with 12 '3's and 42 points last year for the Heat D-League team. Kid can shoot!

Per sauces:

Meyers slept with fan!

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Andre Dawson redshirted a year at Duke to deal with tragedy.
