    I know it's SL, but Clingan shooting 4 three's in 12 minutes is a bad idea

    Clingan should shoot as many threes as he can in this game. He's only 1 of 2 Blazers who's made one.

    Every game, the announcers have gushed about how Clingan is clearly the best player on the court. Even though the stats don’t show it, it’s obvious.

    They look as good as anyone else on the team.

    right...he's open for a good reason

    I wouldn't want Clingan parked around the three point line very often when offensive rebounds are available

    They changed one of Clingans blocks to a steal, so 4 blocks 1 steal now. Definitely thought he had 5 blocks though

    Clingan is the only Blazer not playing like a turd.

    It will be really interesting to see how Clingan is officiated during the regular season.

    He’s committed several fouls this summer without being called for them

    He hadn’t played 5s since the natty. Definitely takes a little bit of time to knock off the rust

    In Summer League? Offensive rebounds against scrubs.

    The 3-point line is the 3-point line. Summer League or Regular Season.

    likely depends on who he's guarding. If he has that contact against Jokic or AD or Sabonis the whistles will come often

    Triple double watch at halftime and you're not excited? I don't care if you think you spoke to the ghost is Red Auerbach, your bball IQ is low. And judging by your post, that's not all.
