Rosters: Timberwolves / Trailblazers
Replay of last night's game against the Lakers here.
While the Wolves couldn't get their first win last night, word on the street is Kevin Love threw some sick outlet passes. Not only that, but Corey Brewer was apparently the recipient of more than a few of them as he hit 7 of his 10 shots. Solid, but ...

... SL roster to Portland's , there's quite a difference. But Bayless is yet to really play against another marquee name in Vegas, so with his intensity and business-like attitude, I'd expect Bayless to really get up for this one. This game will be about these two stars. What a way to go out. Check back around 7 for live updates.

Summer League Report —

Roughly halfway through the summer league, it’s time to take a look at what we’ve seen so far.
Keep in mind, there’s a lot we can’t learn from the summer league, especially if we just look at stats. (remember how Marco Bellinelli went off last year?) The game is played at a breakneck pace, there is [...]
The Legend of Rudy Frenandez —
Dime Magazine
After watching the Blazers' Petteri Koponen struggle mightily to bring the ball up against summer league competition last night, I basically crossed him off the list of guards in the Blazers' system (which basically answered some of these questions). Even without Koponen, that guard glut currently includes Jerryd Bayless, Steve Blake, Sergio Rodriguez, Rudy Fernandez [...]

Summer League Action Game 2 vs Portland —
Sactown Royalty
Since the normal thread isn't up I thought I would introduce the topic for everyone to comment on the game (if they so choose of course). Obviously I hope Greg Oden plays, and see how Spencer matches up, but mostly I'm interested in seeing how well Douby matches up with Koponen, the Norwegian big guard drafted 30th overall last year by Portland. This is the 2nd part, I believe, to any future ...

Rip City Project | A Portland Trailblazers blog
We're back with Portland's second game in Vegas. Yesterday was all about debut's, today is all about answering questions. For Bayless....can he keep it up? Can he stay in attack mode, make some shots now that the "secret" is out. Also can he erase any crazy comparison I have with the man pictured to the left. Koponen...was he just hot yesterday? Or has he actually improved that much. Can he ...
The Blazers’ Biggest Predicament —
Dime Magazine
G.O. shouldn't be a problem
Portland GM Kevin Pritchard has the kinds of problems that every NBA general manager wishes they had. In addition to Jerryd Bayless' 28-point debut last night and the gushing praise that we've heard about Spanish G Rudy Fernandez, there's another name in Portland's backcourt that deserves serious consideration. Finnish PG Petteri [...]
Blazers kick off summer league with a reminder of what summer league is —
Deceptively Quick
Blazers had their first summer league game against the Washington Wizards on Monday. The probably still incorrect box score can be found here --hey its summer, lower your standards! If I chose one word to describe the game, I would make one up, and it would be "summerleaguey." By summerleaguey I'm referring to the presence of the usual pick up ball characters; bricks, turnovers, fouls, more ...
