With Quartermann gone, what PGOTF is going to lead the Blazers to the Summer League championship?

 

[craigehlo]

More PG time for Planet Pat I guess. Probably pick up someone from the undrafted scrapheap.

 

[craigehlo]

Welcome RJ Hunter...

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

@HCP will you be in Vegas working the summer league games?

 

[BonesJones]

Welcome RJ Hunter...

Did we invite him to SL?

Napier should be the Wiley ol vet of our summer league team

Loved watching him in the NCAA tournament but he isn't a PG lol

 

[dviss1]

Will Vonleh play ?

Leonard should be on another team's SL squad.

Bruh...

FIFY

He's got a mean streak but yeah, not a PG...

The first two games (July 8th & 9th) will be on CSN and Rip City Radio.

Man I'm getting excited! Looks like tickets are $30-40 per game which isn't horrible.

Are they for just one game or is it like a day pass?

I think it's like a day pass. I only plan on watching the Blazers so it doesn't make any difference to me. I'll be in the pool the rest of the time.

Well it would be cool to see if the Lakers are playing because there is like a 75% chance you'll get to see Lavar up and close lol

I remember Hunter because he was projected to go around when the Blazers picked that year. They ended up taking RHJ instead of RJH. Apparently, even though he is a SG, they are going to try him at PG for Summer League with the trading of Tim 'Allen' Quartermann.

Hunter:
Insanely long range + Insanely poor shot selection = Insanely poor fg%

Sounds like LaMelo Ball is gonna be the next RJ Hunter

 

[Rastapopoulos]

A few nice passes in this:

 

[Trackjack]

All I know when he has space he diffently can shoot it. He needs to get stronger and he get caught up on screen does that sound familier with the screens. Nice height 6'6 with almost 6'10" wing span. He dish the ball on the move alright so he maybe can play PG. But he is a scorer first like all our PG are on this team. So does he have shot I would say it will be hard due to if we keep Pat that would make us 15. Let see how he plays this summer.

 

[TBpup]

He can pass it a little and has ridiculous range....but his shot selection is terrible and his overall shooting percentage just awful. Maybe if they can direct him to be a pass first player for Summer League he might be able to set up other players a bit. If he starts shooting, the whole thing is a waste of time.

Our next Pierre Jackson and... that other dude that never passed.

Swanigan also said he’s not going to take anything for granted just because he’s been drafted.

“The biggest thing I have to fight for this summer is an opportunity. If I get an opportunity, I’m going to try to have 30 rebounds in a game.”

Shouldn't gotten another ex-Zag to play in Summer League: David Stockton.

Would be great at getting our bigs looks.

Instead we got another chucker. I'll be in Vegas embarrassing my girlfriend by yelling at RJ to pass the ball.

Save her the embarrassment. Take me instead. I'm ok with you doing that....
