By reilo Go To PostI agree, but he's just… whatever he has for fluidity and feel for the game on the defensive end, he just has no foot work in the post. He's rushing.He had a weird dichotomy between his FT% and post touch during his sophomore year (weirdly good post touch, awful FT%) and I was kind of hoping the tension would resolved in favor of the post touch... unfortunately it seems like it might be going the other way.
A guard not rewarding his big on the roll that freed him up with an amazing screen to take a terrible pull-up 8-foot jumper should get immediately waived
Some girl in the crowd just yelled "STOP SHOOTING THREES" and everyone in the arena heard it LOL
These fans ain't having it
"Y'all can't hit a shot!"

Man, this Blazers offense is a mess. Clingan still looks great though. If only someone could pass him the ball when he’s open instead of bricking a million 3s
By reilo Go To PostGOAT talk from these announcers smhthat was awful. yes
By diehard Go To Postim rooting for 10 blocks lolI'm pretty sure he'll have 10 block games, he's so much more polished than Kessler and Kessler had like a 9% block rate last season. Those two and Wemby are bringing insane block numbers back.
I think this boxscore is wrong... It has Rupert as 1-10 but I'm pretty sure McGowan's is the one 1-10 lol
SMH they took a block from Clingan, they love taking blocks and steals from the elite guys so they don't get Jordan rigging allegations.
By reilo Go To PostFunny enough, Clingan -5 in this game so far but he's the only one that looks like an NBA player
Makes 0 sense. He literally just single handedly got them back in this thing.
Also I count 6 blocks, box score has him at 4. 7 if you count that weak foul where he got some elbow at the same time as the ball.
By Christberg Go To PostMakes 0 sense. He literally just single handedly got them back in this thing.He'll just always get fewer blocks counted than he actually gets, but the +/- is because of the sequence at the end of the first / start of the second quarter where the Blazers basically couldn't score.

...and what just happened of course.

Yep. Just absolutely nasty shooting here.

When I went to summer league there was a guy making people laugh at the line, he'd tell players their skin is so smooth and he wanted their skin care routine
not worried about nick's shooting. he was lights out last year but any time he had to dribble im convinced he did it with his eyes closed. been much better with the ball all summer league at least

IDK what to make of Salaun from this game. Still a mystery box. Runs the floor well, doesn't rush it when he's near the rim, but haven't seen as much athleticism as I thought he would possess. He's absolutely a big body, looks closer to 6'11 than 6'9 or whatever.
By reilo Go To Postgoddamn morganHe was really good in the French league, I feel like he could play in the NBA. Just not sure who wants that kind of player right now.
these commentators are dweebs ugh
i think he gets 'parts' of the game now - and knows how to not foul himself out by breathing. so he's arguably already better than PJ

Runs the floor well, doesn't rush it when he's near the rim, but haven't seen as much athleticism as I thought he would possess.he's got frame, wiggle, and hands. which is all you want on a big blank slate youngest in the draft kinda prospect. he's got a profile that can turn into bam or something close.

By You got 14 bricks right there?

He heckles people at summer league every year.

I can't imagine you being on SA lol.
Why is NBA.com showing peach jam? Wish we would do away with HS & College basketball in general and just follow the Euro model where kids join local clubs and academies and get trained that way.
