MEDIA DAY THREAD

Said he enjoyed watching DC in college while he was in Boston.

 

Jrue said DC hasn’t blocked his shot since! Said he wanted to wear number 11 here, his original number, but that wasn’t’ an option. Wonder why?

 

ChatHCP is in the house summarizing the media availability.

 

Look at the exposure compensation on that Sony camera!

 

Jeremy is less unhappy, lol.

 

Ha, not exactly what he said.

 

I'll figure out what I want to talk about or what topic I want to start, but thank you. This is a topic about a particular article that I read and the concept of Jeremi Grant as a guard. This isn't about the starting five. Thank you anyways though. Appreciate the offer of help. Maybe you should step up your game HCP, I've seen much more tenacious forum fuzz out there.

Very enjoyable group of people/personalities.

Excited to root for them again this year.

 

So I think the best thing that will come out from today will be Hansen’s interpreter and him using the term …….. ChinGlish as to how he speaks. Love it! Hope this kid succeeds!

 

I am kind of interested to see what Grant does this year. With all the talk from fans and the media and everything. Might be cool to see him come out and explode into a serious player. Maybe he could pull a Lauri Markkanan?

 

I chuckled at this.

 

Thanks for the updates HCP. It's about time you provided something useful around here. #BAM

 

In this house, we revere Meyers Leonard!

 

Bryce McGowens seems to have that number sewn up.

 

If Sharpe doesn’t start that means he’s not the franchise player we think he can be, or CB shouldn’t be our head coach. It’s one or the other

 

Grant seems like a disgruntled veteran even while having a starting spot.

I don't see that dynamic working well at all throughout this season. I almost wonder if it would be best for both sides to explore buyout options - it's horrible from a cap perspective though, but not sure we'll ever do anything with his contract as is.

Kind of worried Jrue might become this same situation at a point too. The Dame and Scoot injuries at least will keep that from being a problem at day1 but that could be the next ticking time bomb.

Just perplexing how the Blazers management continually collects overpaid veterans that have a self inflated ego. Hopefully with Bert Kolde leaving and the new owners coming in this changes.
