Notice TRAIL BLAZERS TO START NBA SUMMER LEAGUE ON AUGUST 8

[tykendo]

Both announcers are gushing about Greg Brown.

Hell looks

Nice 3pt contest by Elleby

One thing you can't teach is length, and that wingspan is handy. He's a good rebounder too. It's on the offensive side he needs to get better.

 

[B-Roy]

brown looks more like a big than a wing to me

Really? When he's handled the ball these last few games he looks fine on drives. He never hesitates on shooting perimeter shots. He guards other wings/bigs. Clarke is someone who I think is best at C. Brown I'd play at PF most of the time.

 

[Scalma]

No hyperbole, Elleby shoots like a rec league player.

 

[Tince]

Elleby catches someone elses airball and turns it into an and-1!

 

[B-Roy]

Elleby looks like he has to expend so much energy to even get the ball on the rim on threes....

 

[B-Roy]

Was Beas yelling at Faried?

And yells, "See guys! This is what I was trying to set up for you!"

Was Beas yelling at Faried?

haha i heard that. Dunk that MFer

 

[Driew]

Was Beas yelling at Faried?

Yes....

 

[illmatic99]

Mudiay looks chunkier than i last remembered him

But he plays with control. He can get in better shape. I like him.

i dunno. he's fluid when he runs but that handle looks shaky. and his shot release is a bit slow. thought he projected as a big. Who knows.... Grant was a bit like Bambi earlier in his career too.

It's crazy to me how Summer League jerseys have evolved over the last few decades.

 

[THE HCP]

Great day so far. Saw @THE HCP at the airport.

Landed in Vegas at 1:30, and made it in time for the 3:00 Blazers game. Man, I’ve missed these nachos!

Great seeing you again brother! Nice to meet your son as well. Hope you guys have fun down here. Just got to my hotel room and am watching the game!

 

[tykendo]

Beasley looks like he knows this might be one of his last chances to get in the league. He has a nice offensive game. I like that he's so engaged. He's right on that comment to Faried. Faried shouldn't EVER! miss down low with those hops.

the one now looks better than that brown nonsense they came up with last season.

 

[THE HCP]

L

Why should there be an age limit? Mudiay, Faried, and Beasley are trying to show the NBA scouts, and foreign teams that they can still play.

Lighten up Francis, he's joking. Plus it's his birthday.

Man! Remember watching every game of Dame's in that Summer League that year. He made it look so easy.

To be fair... so did Bayless

 

[illmatic99]

To be fair... so did Bayless

bayless was just barreling into people trying to get fouls. Dame was a bit more controlled.

 

[42N8Bounce]

Go Blazers!

 

[B-Roy]

Faried really hurt his hand

 

[42N8Bounce]

Elleby does not look good. That’s all I’ll say about that.

I love Brown’s potential. He hustles and can jump out of the gym.

Mudiay looks composed. Solid player.

 

[Natebishop3]

That's why I didn't really think it would translate to the NBA. I was thinking, "there's no way he's getting these calls in the league."

 

[illmatic99]

man we look terrible on both ends. guessing you guys have been seeing better the other two games?

 

[B-Roy]

Watford should study Kyle Anderson. If you're going to be that unathletic and require that many dribbles, you gotta be a bit more composed.

 

[Tince]

This is a championship summer league roster (according to Vegas)... do we blame the coaches for this loss?

 

[tykendo]

Brown awful now. Very raw. Looks like he has years of development ahead of him to actually be able to contribute.

 

[illmatic99]

bro we had 7 points that quarter
