    I really liked Bari's answer about why hes playing in summer league again this year. I hope he has a great great year. The talent is definitely there.

    Finally got a chance to watch the game last night and I must say that Amen Thomson looks HUGE out there. He towered over scoot and looks almost abnormal running point (in a good way) his defensive impact really impressed me. Im hoping he can rest that ankle and show the same vs NBA starting lineups in the near future.

    Jabari MY MAN!! This is exactly what ROXNATION needed from you my guy. Tough shot makers are invaluable.

    Tari looked good too as a utility guy doing all the little things needed to win - that last entry pass to Jabari was a thing of beauty.

    Cam was OK he will need some time, but I think he's in a good place to develop without too much pressure.

    All in all it was an entertaining game - I think our young guys looked better than Portlands young guys.

    Bari's shot vaguely reminded me of Lillard over Parsons. I'll take it even though it's summer league.

    I really liked the way Eason played with both Amen and Whitmore. Just seemed to "connect" with both on the court. I also admired the pair calling the game, that clip being a good example. We got two excellent picks in this draft, so have to give Stone credit for that. Credit for them, and credit for Eason. @Clutch was very high on Tari prior to his draft. I almost always agree with him on who he likes. Not on Sengun, but he's right more often than not.
