    How about Voq? He is an albino Klingon in the Star Trek universe.

    He's just a slightly thicker John Butler Jr.

    This is true. And I think eventually he will be able to. Either way, I don't really care because at best we are talking about a backup.

    I’m glad we did not get the number 2 pick. You guys really like Sarr?

    It's done now,
    He is indeed leading all of summer league in both Blocks and Rebounds.

    Fucking hell this draft class! I haven’t been able to get thru 3 or 4 minutes of ANY summer league game so far, including ours. Thank you for these game threads.

    I’m happy with Clingan, his defensive presence and rebounding really impacted this game .His offense isn’t great but it can improve. Good pick! I am however really not impressed with Kris Muarry or Rupert. Also Sarr looks horrible but it is only first few games of summer league, crazy that dude refused to work out for the hawks.

    The games are fun to watch, something the Blazers have not been for two years.

    What they don't understand is that this puts Washington in the driver's seat for COOPER FLAGG. Playing the long game baby!

    Horrible reasoning but I'm sure you're being sarcastic

    The Murray haters are going to be mad when he gets minutes just because the coaches love him. You can tell he's the kind of player who actually listens to what they say, understands it, and remembers it.

    If he gets minutes just because the coaches love him, and he actually impacts the game in a positive way even without shooting well (like Toumani does), nobody will mind.

    I guess we shall see.

    The chip is out of our hands, meaning we don’t entirely control whether or not we have a shot to make it into the SL playoffs.

    I watched most of the first quarter last night and it was some of the ugliest basketball that I've ever seen. I decided to watch some old re-runs instead.

    Yeah, the first quarter was painful. But it isn't like past years have been much better. The key is to tape them all and FF through the worst parts. The other 3 quarters last night were much better.
