    Does Sidy have a two way for the upcoming season? I believe Love has one signed. So that would mean we have one more available as well as 14th (required) 15th (optional) full roster spots.

    Blazers don't play the Rockets tonight. They play the Warriors.

    How will we be able to tell if our future can dominate from day one if Sengun isn’t playing?

    I only want to see Yang, honestly. Even if Rupert puts points on the board, they are meaningless. When this roster was put together it should have been done with the understanding to work the ball through Yang. Let’s see him in the low post for scoring opportunities, high post for screening and initiating offense and rebounding at both ends. I do not want to see Love or Rupert jacking shots, just to be seen. They are not the show. I am also interested in seeing how well Yang moves defensively. Can he be affective in defending the PNR? One v one? We know his help defense from videos look good. Overall, he appears to be a good, coordinated big. Let’s see it. But Summer Leagud is for guards and chuckers.

    we won't be able to tell if Yang CAN dominate but we will be able to tell if he CAN'T.

    If he plays well against garbage, it means nothing. If he plays poorly against garbage, it means something.

    Yang can have a bit bigger role but no the roster doesn't need to 100% work through him. He won't do that to start next season - so he should play in a role with similarities to what he will do with the Blazers in the regular season.
