    That is some bad coaching as well. The coach has to be screaming as soon as they have possession to "hold the ball" or "run out the clock". That is bball 101.

    Bad coaching, but fuck it, just a summer league game. Hope Scoot is alright, that's the most important thing.

    Ok just shut sharpe for the rest of summer league. No reason to risk him getting hurt especially if we are going to play that brain dead of defense on the final possession

    so, I made a point of tuning in to give myself a little blazer joy amidst the blazer agony

    so Scott gets injured and the Blazers manage to lose a game they would win 99 out of 100 times

    yeah...the life of a Blazer fan

    The two PG's we have here behind Scoot are dog shit.

    The dude that didn't run the clock needs to be sent him. Give him a check for ten bucks and thank him for his service. Our bigs have fumbled the ball the whole game inside the lane.

    Scoot getting hurt really sucks. We just can't ever catch a break. The loss is whatever since its just summer league. But I really hope this injury isn't anything major

    Was at least good at staying vertical on defense, I guess. It's one stupid summer league game, not going to make big proclamations, but I don't see it at all.
