    Go, its a fun fucking time. All basketball junkies, really knowledgeable ones to boot. I went for Lillard's first game ever, it rocked.

    There's a group for the LA Blazer fans talking about making a road trip to Vegas. I'm unsure as I'm schedule to go to Vegas the week after Summer League for a Divorce Party.

    I was married in Vegas two years ago July 8th. the week we were there the temp averaged 107 and there was a huge fire that stained the western skies the whole time we were there. July is not a good month for many reasons. With that said, if you are sitting in an air condition auditorium/stadium all day???

    I'll be very surprised if he makes the opening day roster, he was brought in to trade.

    I read that before and was confused by it. How and why could he be traded. He signed for $47,000. How long is he under contract?

    I also read in that same article he would not get in any games. Yet he did and looked decent. I wonder if that changes things.

    His contract was for next season as well all of which is unguaranteed. So he can be packed in a trade along with say Kaman allowing the Blazers to acquire a player making almost a million more in salary if need be. Then his new team can cut him.

    Then it doesn't matter whether he gets injured. So why would he be held out of Summer League.
