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

Oh ya, Zach’s face is top 5 punchable in the league.

 

[Sinobas]

When Layman shoots, it looks like he's intentionally trying to hit the back iron, and he usually does.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

So much for our dreams of winning the preseason championship.

Well, why don't you drive your ass on down to the Rose Garden tonight and try to get in a fist fight with Zach Collins. I"m sure you'll win.

 

[julius]

Imagine if these were the starters.

 

[LuckyShot]

Wait, why are they still playing Len? lol

 

[Sinobas]

Imagine if these were the starters.

0-82

 

[HailBlazers]

Briscoe reminds me of Dre

We want Bama?

Well, we can tank for the preseason draft then.

You took that too seriously. He’s a 7’0 tall NBA player, of course he would kick my ass. I’m just saying his face screams “punch me”.

[LuckyShot]

Yeah, I've had enough of Pat and Jake.

 

[julius]

Because pre-season games matter!

 

[BigGameDamian]

We have a barn burner!

 

[Sinobas]

Yeah, I've had enough of Pat and Jake.

Seems to be a case of Olshey loving his own draft picks. I think Pat has proven he's not a legit nba player. Just look at how they performed in summer league.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I didn't think Turner really contributed. Doesn't seem to be any progress as far as figuring out how to use him.

 

[Sinobas]

Not Collins fault though....everyone else yeah

 

[ripcityboy]

Need to trade for a back up guard who can play a little D and shoot.

(Like we lost in Crabbe.)

 

[BigGameDamian]

Not Collins fault though....everyone else yeah

He was on the floor though.

 

[Sinobas]

I didn't think Turner really contributed. Doesn't seem to be any progress as far as figuring out how to use him.

I thought the same thing. Still not impressed with him at all. He's like the Mason Plumlee of SFs. Good ball handler passer, but bad jump shot, not great finishing skills, over-rated defense.

 

[Sinobas]

Sorry, the thought of punching him never entered my mind.

[Sinobas]

Let Collins hit the game winning shot

 

[julius]

This really was not a good showing for Jake and Pat.

 

[Sinobas]

Hmm, so Mike Rice was not impressed. I watched him closely. He still seems to be over-thinking everything. His shot looked good, he made a 3 and a jumper...but there was a time in the game where he got the ball near the rim, and instead of going up strong like a real big man he flicked it up there like he was playing hot potato and missed.

 

[LuckyShot]

What?!? I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.

 

[Sinobas]

Briscoe you suck!!!

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Briscoe not historically a very good free throw shooter; pretty amazing he sinks three clutch.

 

[ripcityboy]

This really was not a good showing for Jake and Pat.

Because they suck and are not good enough. Shouldn't even be on the team.
