    Prediction: Scoot will tear it up in the SL, win MVP, and the fans will magically be pumped about next season.

    Also possible: Shae goes bonkers and wins MVP.

    I think Shae plays 1, maybe 2 games. I think Scoot can win MVP though.

    Scoot's odds to win rookie of the year have to had gone up by now.

    That's true. Good point. He can win it. I actually think he's the favorite. Ball will be in his hands.

    You forgot that ball hog Anfernee is still on the roster!

    Did Jerryd Bayless teach us nothing?

    Or the fact that we were the "SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPS"?

    Summer League doesn't mean a fucking thing.

    I'll be "magically pumped" if Scoot looks even close to the 'soon-to-be all-star' that half this board acts like he is ... against actual NBA competition.

    Same with Sharpe, btw.

    Or should I say soon-to-be "superstar"?

    He's got the body and the ball will be in his hands. I think Scoot is the favorite to be ROY. Watching him and Shaedon work together will be fun. Wish we had a good up and coming forward too. Sochan would be so nice.

    Of course, but his stature will be just a bit diminished.

    I can't see with all the marketing toward him that it's not Wemby. That doesn't mean Scoot won't have a really good season, just if it's a tie, it goes to the big man.

    Jerryd Bayless and Scoot Henderson are nothing alike.

    Scoot is getting a lot of marketing as well and will get more because of the Damian replacement storyline. I predict Scoot.

    You get the point.

    Summer League domination doesn't mean anything, so getting excited about summer league performance is rather meaningless.

    Blazers have signed Scoot. So, he officially is going nowhere anytime soon.

    I didn’t say it did. I said that it would excite the fanbase.

    Scoot plays bigger than his height because of his strength and his long wingspan.

    :cheers:

    The Quatro-S? It keeps getting better. We need a fifth and we're good.
