Comments From The Other Side - Vegas Summer League - vs Portland - Playoffs

http://celticsgreen.blogspot.com/2015/07/comments-from-other-side-vegas-sl-game_17.html




Going to be a lot harder to contain Smart without Crabbe this time around.

According to Anonymous League Sources I’ll take Montero for the over 8 idiotic dribble-step-back-Dion-Waiters-imitations, please.

As soon as he waves his arms like an electrified condor, I'm done with him But he’s kinda fun to watch, even if he is raw as celery

I see a hard Winter a coming, and suggest we order forty wagons of whiskey to see us through.

Losing Crabbe's Defense will hurt...Boston's been good shooting the 3 since we played them.

I don't think we hate on the Celtics all that much. Heck we’ve even largely gotten over hating Bill Simmons.

No animosity Unless we have to listen to Tommy Heinsohn…then RAGE

We are a 5.5 point underdog tonight. Yep. They even make lines for Summer League, proving people will literally bet on anything.

Without Crabbe to shut down Smart...Who will be on Smart? I think that is the 30 point difference question tonight.

Orton they’re opting to confuse him instead of stop him

SMART MISSED A THREEEEEEEEE

He missed a dozen of them their last game.

Has Bogins done anything this SL?

Coached.

Yeah, they keep using the line about him being a vet and whatnot, but he looks terrible.

Drawn charges and tried to draw charges Also, thought about drawing charges and instructed the young guys on how to draw charges

And to remind them of the deep depression and aimlessness awaiting them upon retirement at age 32

Just look at that name: Bogans Sounds like a swamp dwelling faerie who makes travelers give up and drown

Celtics paid Bogans 5 million dollars to leave the team

Leading, even though we didn't stop Smart

Smart took a couple not Smart long 3s.

So Smart is beating Smart

New plan: tank the regular season to win summer league championship

Do we have a nickname for Noah yet?

The Rainbow "And God said unto Noah, never again will I destroy the Blazers via free agency again."

Eeeeeeeeeek. Smart's finger is a now a peace sign

That smarts

that's a lot of yelling I hope he’s all right

I hate the summer league.

Aaaagh, Smart is awesome, hate to see a good one go down Looks like a wrist injury?

Smart better have something broken Or a punch to the groin for that amount of screaming.

In a mostly empty arena A dude screaming sounds really scary

It almost sounded like venting Like frustration as well as pain. That’s what I’m hoping, anyway. Hope it’s not serious.

Please let Smart be okay He worked WAY too hard this summer on that jumper for a wrist injury to ruin that progress

How was that not a foul on Boston?

Dude snapped a finger or wrist or something Think they’re gonna let that one go

Summer league Fouling is totally fine provided you injure yourself in the progress …and you get 10 of em

OK what the hell, Smart and Crabbe work super hard, improve a ton, and go down in summer league? Where is the justice?

Bogans being on the team seemed like a nice story at first But as I’ve watched, I’ve decided it’s a wasted roster spot. The offense dies when Frazier sits.

Smart goes down, Celtics go on 10-0 run. Smart bad confirmed.

Well, he has been shooting about 5% from the field in summer league.

I seriously doubt Smart will be pulling threes deep off the bounce on fast breaks once the real season starts This definitely looks like Smart testing his new jumper out.

Yeah, and the results have mostly been "CLANK."

2 dislocated fingers for smart.

Well that is way better then a broken wrist

Why is this old dude on our summer lueage team?

Because he is awesome? Rumor has it he wants a roster spot on a young team, feels like he has something to contribute. I’m undecided

He had that same opportunity in Boston He bitched so much they just sent him home.

Lol Bogans is soooo bad

Nice walk Savy veteran move

Bogans shot a 22 footer about 12 feet

Savy veteran airball by Bogans

Old men get tired early

Each Bogans miss is an important lesson for our young players

A very important "what not to do or else you’ll be playing in the Summer League at 35" lesson

35 and he still got it What that is I don’t know, but it’s not basketball.

I'm not sure I want our young players getting veteran "advice" from Bogans anymore lol

Bogans bitched his way off the Celtics team because he didn't want to be a mentor. Why would anyone think he wants to be mentor now?

He attended Bonzi Wells' summer mentorship camp.

Bogans 0-3 with 2 fouls and 3 TO’s Please stop showing our young players how to be bad

How long is Summer League halftime? Long enough to escort Bogans to his hotel room and lock the door?

Who wants to see basketball action when we can look at Evan Turner? (MY NOTE:  So, they don't like those split screens either)

Blow it up. Rebuild. Maybe we can make a run at the 2016 Summer League Championship.

At least we have a bona-fide Building block in Keith Bogans

How is it that the other team's best player got injured... And WE are suddenly losing

Lol Young worst shot-flop

I don't like Hunter And I honestly don’t know why

Bogans going coast to coast like spry man of 52.

"Bogans has to improve, but he's got some great veterans like Lillard and Meyers on this roster to help him improve." If he works hard I think he’ll make it"

Good to see Smart back on the bench even if he won't be playing

In the future there is going to be a 30 for 30 based on Bogans' 2015 Summer League exploits

The dislike I have for Hunter is so strange

Lol RJ Hunter is garbage

Thank god we didn't draft him

LOLLLL RJ HUNTER TRASH

Please get better at basketball RJ Hunter

Can we max RJ Hunter And never play him and ruin his ‘career’

Anyone else really irritated by Hunter already?

I reallly hate RJ hunter

RJ hunter is WEEEAAAAK. Can't even break free from a two finger hold on his jersey

We need a "Keith Bogans, Tank Driver" image

Once again, ugly basketball and good fortune overcomes beautiful ball movement and excellent defense! I swear this Summer League team is doing it’s best to emulate the actual Trail Blazers

Man, that was SUCH a lucky three-pointer the Celts jacked up to win this game.




bob
MY NOTE:  I gotta say, these guys/gals have one of the best senses of humor I've seen in these 'Comments From The Other Side' threads yet. They sure ripped Bogans a new one, and that alone makes them the Trailblazers of Comedy.


.

Bob,

Didn't you say that guys from after Sully's graduation year aren't eligible for Summer League?" Isn't Bogans' middle name "Flintstone?"

Sam

Anybody can play in summer league. It's just that typically teams choose to hold out their older players.

Thanks for the clarification, gyso and Rambone.
