    Swanigan has a 7-3 wingspan? Damn!

    Layman is doing pretty good! I just wish he was more consistent.

    I like the comparison of Elton Brand for Swanigan . Brand had a 7'5 " wing. Not exactly the same type of player but a good goal for Caleb. He has more range than Brand

    I thought I saw Rick Harrison in the crowd about 8 minutes ago or so. It wouldn't surprise me if he's there; trying to scam people out of Swanigan jerseys.

    "Hey Rick, I've got this jersey. This kid is gonna be legit; a true All Star! I want $100 for it."

    "The best I can do is fifty cents."

    At least in this game, it appears that, on offense, Swanigan operates a lot better when he has a lot of room.

    I was a fan of his last year. The game just looks like it comes natural. He has all the makings of a solid, solid player. Its just a matter of if he can put it all together.

    It looks like he's worked on creating off the dribble.

    It's not like the big boy guards on the Blazers are any better at that. Vonleh and Harkless in particular frequently have mismatches and rarely saw the ball. Nurkic helped but the guards should be more aware. There are some easy hoops available there.

    I still think he needs to keep from taking the difficult 3's. Just stick with the open ones for now with his feet set. Leave the tough ones for Dame

    Lost art of the entry pass.
    Key here kids is to not pick up your fucking dribble until you have a angle to pass the ball.

    Is Stokes really a 6'6" Center?

    Why does Layman like to rock the Jeffrey Dahmer looking side beard that doesn't connect?

    Such a selfish player. Same with that other guard, Johnson. Gutierrez is a rec league talent.

    Haha good old Jeff Pendergraph.

    He sucked. Liked to flex on people all the time even though he was garbage. It was funny.
