Skal to the Blazers!!

Didn’t we get Skal in trade?

 

Haha. Yes. I'm no legal expert, but I think they had to sign something

 

He better mean it and give Skal a chance Friday. We all (minus a few dorks) know Meyers ain’t it.

 

Yeah I'd like to see Skal body up and wrestle with a big center like Rolo.

Actually, no I wouldn't, I couldn't take watching another gruesome injury

 

Oh like Meyers did? He made Rolo look like ‘99 Shaq. I’d take Skal over him any day.

 

I am very much looking forward to Skal having a role on the Blazers. Next season.

Turner and Meyers and sometimes Aminu, not so much

 

I always say we got Skals for next year but the way Leonard perform last night we could see Skals sooner.

 

Skal > Meyers. Can’t believe this is Meyers 7th year and still no improvement...smh

 

I still can't believe we ditched Biggie and got Skal in return. I don't know if Olshey had compromising photos of someone on the Kings, if the Kings GM lost a bet, if the Kings scouts/front office is stupid, or if Olshey really is that good of a salesman. Whatever, even if Skal never starts, this counts as point: Olshey.

 

It's been like a month since Meyers played, and I thought he was actually pretty good last night. Made great passes and set good screens. He is actually not a bad team defender.

 

That's kind of like saying you would rather step in hippo dung than rhino dung.

 

Were we watching different games?

 

From tonight's game

Swanigan - 4 points, 7 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals, 1 block in 18 minutes.

Skal - 29 points, 15 rebounds, 1 assist, 2 steals, 1 block in 41 minutes.

I think it was a good trade.

 

Skal is legit. I think he’ll be in the rotation next year. Biggie doesn’t belong in the league.

 

I was a Biggie fan, but it looks like he’s eating his way out of the league.

 

Jokes aside, the reason I’ve been so intrigued by Skal was on display tonight. And he was often matched up against Marvin Bagley, not a no name. He’s so smooth offensively. He has a beautiful looking shot. Defensively he’s a good help defender. His man to man needs work but he’s still young and works hard. Just look at his body. He’s put on weight and should continue to do so. I’m excited to see what he looks like in training camp. I think he profiles well next to Collins, and eventually Nurkic.

 

Layman is gonna be matched up against Morris. That’s a tough matchup, especially on the boards. If he struggles, could we see Skal?

 

Wow!

Also, simply the eye test was not even remotely close. One of these things is definitely not like the other.
