    Will Swanigan be more than a roll player? There's always room for dudes that can score. Especially in today's NBA. Gotta keep up

    This is an awful pick. He lacks any real athleticism and can't guard a single position on the court.

    Hopefully he's being traded to another team

    I remember during the Tourney, posters wanted him with our 1st pick. Now people are asking who is he?

    I was hoping for Bell as well. I'm wondering if they are hoping this guy can be a backup center though. He's got a huge wingspan, and is a strong 250, and gobbles up rebounds.

    Meaningless argument. Anyone can win a championship with the right teammates.

    It's why I was hoping OG would fall to #26. Bell can play defense on 2-3 positions but offensively, he doesn't have a spot. OG would have been solid on offense and very good on defense.

    I keep feeling Swanigan will not be a Blazer by the end of the night.
