    I mean yeah its fine for now. But he's going to have to produce on the court, if he struggles he's going to have way more scrutiny.

    I mean there's an element of truth to those - although yeah I'm sure my comment grossly overstated both.

    Sheed was certainly better than Porter, Buck, Kersey, Roy, Dame, Paxson, Gross, Wicks. The others have a good argument.

    Walton, Clyde, Pippen are the only ones that were certainly better than Sheed.

    Rasheed had the talent to possibly be the best Blazer ever if he didn't do the bonehead things he did. Even when discounting for his faults, he was an elite player on both sides of the ball.

    Might depend if you enjoy watching chuckers that play no defense or well rounded two way players.

    Good for Portland to have a guy so popular and I mean the city too.

    Why did Yang Hansen refuse to bring his girlfriend to watch his NBA Summer League debut?

    that’s actually an interesting piece of info. Looks like he and his support crew (his mom) are serious about him making the most of his career. This points toward him being all business. We shall see.

    That or it's just some AI aggregated or completely fake story. I assume any of these videos are fake.

    Hansen is 4/11 = 36.4% from 3 after 3 games.

    NBA league average is 36.6%
