Vegas Summer League (split)

[dude12]

no doubt- I feel like James has much more offensive skill then what we're seeing.

I think there is a lot there but he just doesn’t touch the ball much. He does see the floor fairly well and makes the right play but would like for him to be more selfish

 

[Kingz19]

These games are pretty much unwatchable with all these fouls

 

[SacTownKid]

Why the F would you challenge an inconsequential play like that? Wouldn't it make sense to hold onto to it when the game is on the line? lol.

Almost feels like they did it just so we can all talk about this new system... lol

*A Wild Giles appears*

Giles uses Headbutt for 10 damage

New JJ is super sneaky athletic.

New JJ is super sneaky athletic.

That leap looked effortless.

 

[dude12]

I’m a fan of JJ.....needs to spend some time in G league but he plays D, makes the right play, can rebound for a guy his size, gets out and runs, sees the floor fairly well on the break. He’s a keeper

 

[SLAB]

Mika’s won me over. Not any more than to be Jack Cooley 2.0, but so much better after he looked horrible the first game.

Good G-League filler

 

[dude12]

Doyle has looked good this game

The D was great that last possesion!

 

[dude12]

Kyle Guy catch and shoot 3 on the FB....that was a quick release.

I remember when we drafted Mclemore and Jimmer and this is what they were supposed to be able to do.

 

[dude12]

What was that call?

 

[NiNetNiNe]

Kyle Guy has such a quick release. Stopping on a dime from a sprint and splashing a three, Curry-esque.

 

[SLAB]

Lol, Summer League for refs too. How the heck was that “continuation.”

 

[dude12]

Milt Doyle going off

 

[SLAB]

Doyle!!!

 

[OptimusRhyme]

O DOYLE RULES

 

[dude12]

I’m off the Christon train

 

[SLAB]

Remember when some people wanted to trade Rudy Gay for Cam Payne?

 

[dude12]

We got a dandy?

 

[SacTownKid]

I just don't understand the fetish for running iso's through Christon the entire summer league. There is no there there.

 

[SacTownKid]

I’m off the Christon train

He's a G league volume scorer. He's decent at it but where's the upside doing this?

 

[OptimusRhyme]

cameron payne looks like a human squirrel
Roby looks like a randomized created 2K19 player

 

[SLAB]

This is pretty fun.

 

[dude12]

Bad inbounds play....almost got Guy trapped and then he decides to shoot instead of pulling it out

 

[dude12]

An entertains game despite the refereeing calling a million fouls.

I agree that he's looked better, but he has to finish better at the basket. He misses a lot of chippys. Overall, he has more potential than Cooley. Better athlete, taller, and can hit a shot away from the basket. Still, you gotta love Cooley. I take pride in starting the Cooley chant at summer league despite Unci03 throwing things at me and telling me to shut up. I think I had the Capt's support though. Maybe not!

Even Steve Smith noticed it and said so. James just isn't getting plays run for him and when he does touch the ball, he's being unselfish and looking to make the right play. I like that.

Late in today's game he made a textbook extra pass as the defense rotated to him and found a wide open Kyle Guy for a big 3. He knows how to play the game.

 

[Tetsujin]

Not being on the actual summer league roster didn't stop HG from setting a screen for Kyle Guy.

[ESP47]

Are the referees purposely trying to make these games unwatchable for the fans?

I don't think the teams have made it up and down the court twice without a foul being called in either of these two games.
