    Yang listed at #3 after Flagg (#1) and Harper (#2).

    Loving what I’ve seen from Yang so far.

    When I see this, I agree with the guy who said NBA (and ESPN) are trying to promote Yang for commercial reasons. He has done a lot of good things but his performances are not 3rd best. What about Sarr? What about Richardson? And I have no idea how many others. I do know that the guy drafted right behind him has similar stats. Beringer 11-8-1-6 (blocks) 7-1-3-1. TOs 1 to Yang's 8. more efficient with his baskets. 7 for 9 to Yang's 7 for 15.

    The hype level for Hansen is pretty ridiculous

    Yeah, that’s my son with a Blizzard. We got a different flavor each day. Mint M&M is my favorite.

    We’re headed back to Portland tomorrow. We caught both Blazers games, plus got in about 15 hours of additional games over 3 days. My ass is sore. (What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.)

    G-League by FAR! These dudes in summer league WISH they could get in the G-League. 90% of these dudes are about 60 days away from playing “professionally” in Finland or Poland!

    This is exactly why you can’t take a single thing away, good or bad, from summer league play!

    So many jokes, so little time. Promised @SlyPokerDog I’d be nicer on here.
