Summer League Pre-Game: Blazers vs. Wizards
There’s not that much to say about this game; it’s unknown quantity versus less-than-unknown quantity. Over half of these guys won’t be in training camp, and the ones with the giant hops will decide what happens. On our side, we can watch guys like Bayless and see what all the hype is about, and also the Honka Playboy, Petteri Koponen, a man from a country whose president looks like a female version of Conan O’Brien. I also want to see what Nicolas Batum does, being Bastille Day and all. I’m not sure what the holiday’s relevance is to basketball, but whatever. Holidays are massive deals like when Christmas happens during the basketball season, Independence Day during baseball, and Thanksgiving during football. Why wouldn’t the Batman get fired up for Bastille Day?
