    What if Clingan decides to let his hair grow and by the beginning of the year he looks like a Wookie? They nickname him "Chewie."

    Actually, on second thought, give me a Seven of Nine.

    We already have a @BlazerWookee; I absolutely will accept no substitutes.

    He can replace Moses Brown or whoever is the 6th Center on the depth chart.

    No interest in having any Kardashians around this team.

    Maybe then just draft a tall enforcer with a breathing problem who likes wearing black.

    Missed out on AJ Griffin here.
    I would have traded #40 for him.

    Would Murray even get that much today?

    Odd that the 2nd round still only has 2 minutes between picks. I'd think they could do at least 3 minutes so we don't have another Jokic drafted during a taco bell commercial experience.

    Honestly I would not be shocked if Murray is thrown into a deal to help get the Blazers an extra future first ( extra incentive ) if/when they trade Grant , Ant or Ayton in the future.

    I don't know if it's been mentioned, but seeing on yesterday's broadcast that Sarr has an older brother who is a career scrub sure made me glad we didn't trade up for him. Siblings tend to not be too terribly far apart in athletic ability, and it's not like they differ much in size, or Alexander is a skill player who can thus overcome similar athleticism.

    I was neutral on him before that, but now I feel like his upside potential is "not a bust."

    Also, in the lineup of all the green room invitees, Clingan looked a solid 2-3" taller than Sarr.

    Olivier Sarr was on our team and played quite well before he got injured and we cut him.

    Yeah, his brother Olivier was briefly on our team as a two way before he got injured and never played a regular season game for us.
