Miami’s summer league team is absolutely eviscerating Denver right now and Yurtseven isn’t even playing right now.
Also I have to ask. Are we sure Bol Bol is any good?

Man, Idk if my personal fandom/sanity can take the other Euro guy I wanted to draft in only a few short years to turn out really good.

yeh the question I’ll always ask is could we have traded for that 16th pick instead of the Rockets. I’m curious if Sengun will get much run this year? He will be playing behind Wood so I don’t know how many minutes will come his way

He is pretty damn smart. He knows he can’t guard Mobley on the perimeter so he denies him the ball.

The BBIQ really shined through tonight. It's too early to tell for sure, but it seems like he is going to be able to defend at a higher level than expected.

Green looked like a superstar but he completely ignored Sengun all game. I'm curious how he will look if he is included in the offense.

They are going to have a fun team over the next 5 years. The people in Houston are lucky.

For those who might have missed it - there's a previously-unscheduled game that started at 11 AM in T&M to replace the COVID-cancelled Wizards/Pacers. Pacers (with Duarte and presumably Isaiah Jackson, but he hasn't played yet) against the Knicks, who have stepped up to answer the call. Wizards apparently still down for the count.

Forgot the Sixers got Jaden Springer. Shouldn't help their offense at all but yet another strong defender for them to throw into the mix as Ben Simmons refuses to take a shoot in crunch time.

Maxey-Springer-Thybulle is a hell of a late-round haul for the Sixers the last few years. Morey running a clinic in the draft.

You don't judge a guy by his first five minutes in Summer League, but if you did, you'd be thanking the Magic for taking Wagner at #8 and saving us the trouble.

didn’t watch him early but Wagner’s defense in the 4th is pretty darn good. Orlando’s problem is their point guards never pass the damm ball. If they play that way when training camp starts a vet is going to knock them on the ass.

Wagner’ll probably excel once the regular season starts and he’s playing with a structured system but he’s looked the worst out of all the marquee prospects in this ORL-GSW game
