Game Blog: Spurs vs. Hawks - Summer League Game 1

[racm]

Vaughn really leaning on the starters. Can't say I'm disappointed (other than Zeller).

Well, 4 of them have played a legit NBA game, with one being a full-time starter.

Did we ever figure out who the player in the background was?

Weird lens but I think Richards.

[Sense]

Joseph is playing great, confident.

[siraulo23]

cory is on fire

[Sa_Spursfan20]

I take that back. Joseph is looking really nice out there.

[racm]

CoJo going HAM

CJ and JA ballin

It's Ajinça.

[timtonymanu]

Impressive performance by CJ so far.

[timvp]

Cory Joseph the star of the first half. Great job by a guy with a lot riding on how he plays in this summer league.

[DesignatedT]

No Richards or Ajinca? Was looking forward to seeing both those guys over Zeller and Dawson

[ElNono]

Cory started really shaky, but he picked it up

[timvp]

It's Ajinça.

I'll believe you.

Me too.

Quick thoughts:

-Cory Joseph looks much, much better. Playing with a lot more determination.

-Kawhi Leonard aggressive and good inside but cold from the perimeter.

-James Anderson not overly impressive. Hogging the ball a little bit.

-Eric Dawson looks pretty damn legit. I'm thinking more and more he's an NBA player.

-Luke Zeller is got damn horrible.

-Marcus Denmon was overwhelmed at first but then got rolling.

None of the other bench players really played enough to observe much, tbh.

They play 5 games in 7 days. Patience.

I don't mind Dawson getting some burn because I found him to be an interesting prospect last season. Zeller, on the other hand, has no chance at making the team. I definitely wanted to see Ajinca get some playing time.

Not surprised that Vaughn took a pass on Richards in the first half.

[siraulo23]

^ I actually want to see leonard be a tad more aggressive tbh

[timvp]

It looks like there have only been two players who had ten rebounds in a game in this summer league. Dawson has ten boards in the first half. His jumper also looks good. I might have to hop on his bandwagon.

I may be nitpicking, but is it just me or does Joseph seem a bit out of control on his drives?

Anyone else getting the game unavailable due to technical difficulties?

[MR-Clutch]

Joseph should have at least one more assist...that pos zeller blew the pass.

[angelbelow]

Leonard has been pretty aggressive when he got the ball. He just happened to turn it over and miss a couple of jumpshots. So those mishaps minimize his presence but hes definitely been active.

[timvp]

Definitely work to do on his drive and kick.

Got it once when I minimized the stream but I logged back in and it worked.

If he turns out to be a Haslem level player he should get a roster spot.
