Vegas Summer League (split)

[ESP47]

Thought JJ had a nice game. 8/6/4 in 22 min. Had some really nice passes and created a couple things off the dribble. Defense was solid as usual. He looks like he’s becoming a bit more confident.

I’d really like to see them let him run the offense for a stint to see what he can do.

JJ looked the best he has all SL last night. Made really good passes and knows how to find Guy wide open for 3. Not to mention his excellent defense. The game turned when they took him out and put in Doyle in the 4th quarter.

Could not agree more. He should a complete package tonight. Loved his ability to play make

It's plays like these that make me like Justin James as a prospect. First he shows the athletic ability off the ball there, then the court vision to squirt that pass out to Guy for the three.

Someone said it earlier, he’s looking like a player who will be much better with the real NBA team, not a bunch of scrubs trying to get theirs and just maybe make anyone’s radar.

A bigger blow to the VSL than Zion going down.

 

[Gary]

I like Mika and Guy, but the rest are so-so.. I can see us keeping three guys (maybe JJ) and moving them down to Stockton.

 

[SLAB]

We’re down to Wenyen, Guy, Mika and the biggest bunch of scrubs on the planet.

Time for Swanigan to step up I guess.

 

[dude12]

They need to feed Guy more or run something else besides pick n roll with Christon and Swanigan.

 

[SLAB]

Man, I’d welcome back checked-out Doris Burke over Isaiah Thomas and cell-phone Chris Webber any day of the week. This is horrible.

 

[RaY Z]

I know it's still early in the game and it is Summer League after all, but have the Clippers become our bogey team?

 

[miltonap]

Swanigan I feel is like the worst player ever i could run circles around him

 

[SLAB]

Can Semaj Christon go away?

You must be a long-distance runner.

 

[SacTownKid]

Can Semaj Christon go away?

Seriously, he had to have saved one of these coaches from drowning or something. As a SG he's pretty good, as a PG, holy moly. How else could they be letting him run the offense? It's insane. Has been since the first game in Sac and still is.

Thread won. We can all go home now.

I didn't get it at first but then i did hahahahahahahaha

 

[SLAB]

Guy ain’t shy.

Unfortunately can’t hit water from a boat tonight, 5-19, 1-9 from 3.

 

[SLAB]

And down 3 with 20 seconds left, Doyle drives down the court to force a layup. WTF?

I’m done watching Christon and Doyle forever.

 

[joemama]

Hero-ball BS
Guy showed when 3 isn't falling he can drive to the basket or drive to the basket

Clips shared the rock (played much more team basketball). So much selfishness makes it hard to watch

Doyle's BBIQ is negative infinity.

 

[SLAB]

Doyle's BBIQ is negative infinity.

It’s a shame because he almost appears to have something from time to time.

... Or maybe just that one time when he got hot and dueled with Cam Payne.

They finally let KG run the offense and at the end of the game it looked like he turned an ankle So, Summer League over probably!

Doyle rules!

I know in the minority, but I find Burke so annoying, always have. Thomas is freaking terrible. And Webber is the most disappointing because I thought he could have been great, but he clearly doesn’t put in the work.

What's funny is Van Gundy was the most annoying to me when he first started but now he's one of my favorites because I like how he calls it like it is and uses common sense, regardless of how dumb the rule is.

Burke is my least favorite next to Mark "everything I say is profound" Jackson. She spends way too much time talking about players' feelings vs. what's actually happening during the game. I don't care about their emotional state. I just want you to tell me something about the game that I may have missed.

I really don’t like Burke either. Her cadence drives me nuts.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Never liked Burke, something about her voice just grates on me (cadence and overall inflection). But she at least seemed knowledgeable, which is probably why ESPN dolled her up at some point from where she first came on the scene.

It's posts like this that make me so glad you've rejoined the ranking of active posters.
