Game Thread Preseason Game #1 Suns @ Trail Blazers Game Thread

[Blazinaway]

The Suns have closed the gap. Does this mean that their scrubs are better than our scrubs?

CJ closed the gap

 

[Jade Falcon]

I'm not liking Swanigan and Davis on the floor at the same time.

 

[LuckyShot]

So can Briscoe not shoot?

 

[Sinobas]

I've given up on Jake Layman

 

[LuckyShot]

Pat and Jake still look out of place on a basketball court.

 

[Sinobas]

We're playing 3rd stringers against their starters.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Layman still can't shoot apparently?

 

[LuckyShot]

This game quickly turned into complete shit.

 

[AFully22]

You know it’s the fourth quarter of a pre season game when 6 of the 10 players on the court are white

 

[H.C.]

Why is Collins and not Layman closing out to Warren on that kick out?
Goodness Layman...

 

[LuckyShot]

I think that was the best move I've seen Collins make with the ball in his hands. Nice!

 

[Sinobas]

Jake Lameman

 

[DUB]

Nice, strong finish by Collins.

 

[ripcityboy]

Think they've jacked up enough threes?

 

[Sinobas]

Blazers are thin at 2 and 3.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Just popped on the tv, who has played well?

 

[Sinobas]

The regulars were kicking Phoenix' ass. But Pat and Layman just suck.

 

[ripcityboy]

Like Collins. Kids Like Johnny from the Karate Kid playing BB.

 

[H.C.]

So Lin wraps his arm around Nard's throat while Nards is boxing out and no ejection?
Guess I don't know the rule well enough.

 

[julius]

This lineup is playing some ooooogly ball. Well, not Collins, but the rest of them.

 

[Sinobas]

Just popped on the tv, who has played well?

Collins, Dame, Nurk, Harkless, Ed Davis. Portland was well in control of the game till we put in Pat, Layman and Briscoe....a summer league lineup.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Suns new unis suck, they look like the Hawks old unis from the Joe Johnson era

 

[AFully22]

Would Zach’s face be less punchable if he cut his hair?

Good ol preseason basketball

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Would Zach’s face be less punchable if he cut his hair?

Yes.

 

[Sinobas]

I think Zach is going to win the starting PF job this year.

 

[Sinobas]

Would Zach’s face be less punchable if he cut his hair?

Are you talking about Zach Collins? You want to punch our own player in the face?

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

So can Briscoe not shoot?

looks like he wanted to pass when he first came in and so passed up some open shots. then came back in after a break and tried to force his shots or his drives.

 

[Sinobas]

I'd like to see Zach get some 3pt looks. I've seen him in practice, having that shot on automatic.

 

[Blazinaway]

Layman looks awful
