    Are the games on the radio? I tried listening last night and it was a national show.

    Blazers will have their hands full with the 'other' Jabari and Eason. If they can win, they at least give themselves a chance to play for the SL title.

    Would be really interesting to see them go up against each other over an extended series of possessions, see how their respective strengths and weaknesses compare. If Walker is the kind of competitor I suspect him to be, that's precisely the matchup he's itching for.

    Also would be interested to see the two LSU forwards matched up against each other.

    I'd just like to remind everyone that I was in on Eason before all y'all .:breakdance:

    It's really frustrating that we didn't have the assets to buy back into the first round.

    Eh, I was talking about wanting him before the draft as well. I loved his potential.

    was just joking. there were a few others who were also really high on him like i was. there were also others who claimed he had terrible BBIQ and mocked him in the lower parts of the first round.

    all in all though, summer league projections notwithstanding, i'm really happy with my pre-draft rankings of these guys. i feel like the hours and hours of research i poured into the draft this year was somewhat worthwhile.

    I get it now. They found out they got rings if they won after the first game. Should have told them sooner.

    Couldn’t we done a S&T with ANT?

    I think we had the assets we just didn’t want to.

    If Sharpe works out for us then all will be well. If Walker works out too we will be deep.

    Am I the only one reading his name as "Enron" every time? Quite fitting for him to be on Houston's squad.

    Have not watched one minute of summer league for the first time since they started broadcasting the Salt Lake City summer league in the late 90s. I watched basically the same thing the last 40 games of last season. No thanks FAMS.

    I can understand your position as i hated the tank as well, but you are missing something special happening with Jabari Walker. It's been fun to watch that guy.

    Because he had a more recognizable name than Kyle Alexander?

    Hopefully he doesn't tomorrow. I want to see a Watford/Walker/Alexander front line against the Rockets.
