    Hate to use this meme, but... Swanigan and getting swatted at the rim, name a more iconic duo.

    Nah. He’s just looking for suggestions on how to get you to pay up on the bet you lost to him.

    Sloppy, but nice to close it out. Clutch FTs by Swanigan.

    Couldn't watch the game (darn work), who/what allowed the comeback by SA? I noticed Trent had a nice line, but a -13 plus/minus.

    In case you mow lawns for a living and are confused about NBA basketball, let me help you out.

    In 2 games with Collins: Opponents shoot 36% from field.
    In 1 game without Collins: Opponent shot 47% from field.

    It felt like the Spurs turned up the D and then started hitting some 3's, and the Blazers were trying to slow the game down (stopped moving without the ball) and didn't get open shots like they were earlier in the game. Caleb also had a couple fails in the post.

    Its been a great fun hanging with you guys for this summer league, but this is it for me this year. Leaving tomorrow for the wilderness not expecting to get internet connection.

    Hope to come back to see images from the parade.

    Go Blazers.

    I was a bit in and out, but it looked to me like general sloppiness and lack of focus thinking the game was over before it was. Some of the non-roster guys started to think it was time to showcase why they shouldn't be playing professionally.

    Edit: oh and Trent happened to be in the game the most with the scrubs when SA made their run.

    Trent look really good today shot 50 percent from 3 but need to get stronger to finish at the rim. Shot 41 percent altogether so nice game. Simons shot the ball decent play decent D and he will be a player in this league. Layman still shooting very well I wish he was bigger so he could play the 4. Swanigan I really don't know about this guy. Wade show his leadership at the end by taking over at the end.

    Layman, 0 assists.
    Simons, 0 assists.

    It's a concern.

    They were busy catching and shooting off of Baldwin passes.
