    Fair warning we have no idea what this team will do by watching fucking preseason games 9 days into training camp. These might as well be line drills.

    Elleby has nice defensive awareness for a rookie.

    i said it was too early to call him a bust in the first game, but 4 games is enough. he fucking sucks and needs to be glued to the bench this whole season. let's dust him off in year 2.

    Only thing I got say they got next week to get things together and some of theses players need to get in shape. Nurk and Kanter both out of shape.

    Preseason doesn't matter to veterans and we happen to have a ton of veterans on the team. Gary and DJJ even feel like they're vets. If our team doesn't show up Wednesday then you have something to complain about. We'll see then if this is indicative of anything. So often there is zero correlation between preseason and regular season performance.

    He's definitely not game ready yet. Way too raw offensively.

    However, the Blazers have a knack for developing 2nd round guards, so if he can hone his jumpshot, I think he has the size and handles to be a rotation player.
