Vegas SL Game 2 vs Bulls (7pm CST -- 3am Riga Time)

[timvp]

Josh Primo won't play in the back-to-back.

[Ocotillo]

Load management for the young fella, his don't want those bone plates to seal off.

[GAustex]

Well he won’t trip and fall and stumble and turnover and shoot embarrassing layups.

[Russ]

Looks like Josh will get through his first five pro games without participating in a win.

But there's always Thursday.

[BillMc]

Go Spurs!

Spurs starters: Tre Jones, Devin Vassell, Nate Renfro, Joe Weiskamp, DaQuan Jeffries.

[Mr. Body]

These NBATV commentators sure do their homework. They have no idea why Primo is out.

[Mr. Body]

Tre Jones has Primo-itis.

[lefty20]

ESPN App still stuck on "Your event is about to begin". Anyone else having this issue as well?

[lefty20]

Nvm, just started.

[Russ]

Vassell on Patrick Williams. Old teammates.

[spurraider21]

are we even sure that Vassell is a 3 & D guy?

[Mr. Body]

are we even sure that Vassell is a 3 & D guy?

2 & D guy

[Mr. Body]

Patrick Williams does not look good so far.

[LeBowen]

Tbh, this is tough to watch.

[Mr. Body]

Spurs have met a team worse than they are.

[Mr. Body]

Can't leave Wieskamp open.

[Blackhaus]

What a joke, 18 year old Primo on load management

[RC_Drunkford]

:lol @ resting an 18 year-old in a Summer League game. Only the Spurs can be that stupid. This would've been the perfect game for Primo to do some scoring and gain more confidence

[spurs10]

Only aired on NBATV?

[Chomag]

Tre is a baller no doubt, he just needs to home in on his skills a bit more

[Russ]

Not so sure I'm completely sold on any of these Florida State guys, Patrick Williams, our own Vassell, or Scottie Barnes.

But I'll take Vassell (his uniform seems better).

[Sugus]

Tre is good. I don't trust his jumper, but he's good.

[Chomag]

Its just goofy to load management a 18 year old In a summer league game....

[Mr. Body]

Not so sure I'm completely sold on any of these Florida State guys, Patrick Williams, our own Vassell, or Scottie Barnes.

But I'll take Vassell (his uniform seems better).

It may take them a few years. FSU has a platoon system where duties are shared.

[Mr. Body]

Are we not going to see Vassell again?

[spurs10]

Are we not going to see Vassell again? Is this aired anywhere other than NBATV?

[Mr. Body]

Vassell out for the rest of the game.

[Chomag]

Vessel having hammy issues it seems

[spurraider21]

Vassell sucks tbh... followed up his shit rookie season with a shit summer league so far. no progress in his game.

Jones can play, but he's going to need a jumper to survive in the NBA

:lmao primo has been rested twice in the summer league so far. twice. for a guy who's going to be in austin all year anyway :lmao

[Dejounte]

Tre would be a good backup to DJ

IMO, we have low floor, high ceiling guys in Vassell, Lonnie (and Primo, but likely later) at the SG spot. Spurs foolishly went for Forbes of all people to create a sort of equilibrium to counter the inexperience at either guard option. Would have preferred other options, but it is what it is.

Yea, alot riding on devin&josh's development

[spurraider21]

Vassell was such a low upside pick... but for a guy who doesnt really have game to create on offense, he's been horribly underperforming as a shooter

[Chomag]

Are the Spurs going to win 1 single game this summer league tbh?

[Biggems]

what a complete shit show this 2nd half has been. I was all excited when I was driving home from work and saw the score. I get home to watch the 2nd half, and the Spurs can't shoot for shit. No 3s, no 2s, tons of turnovers......just complete garbage.

[Blackhaus]

This summer league team is unwatchable. Tre is surrounded by shit even when Vassell was playing. Primo on load management is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen the Spurs do and we’ve all seen a lot. Book it, he won’t sniff playing time with the main team for 2 years. He’s way too weak to even play above summer league scrubs, reg nba would eat him alive.

So is this Mitch guy an actual coach or is he just another one of Pop's yes men because he has been utter trash this whole summer league

Vassell is very much part of the shit

[Blackhaus]

Vassell is very much part of the shit
Umm….that’s kind of what I was implying

[slick'81]

That renfro kid is straight trash

[slick'81]

Umm….that’s kind of what I was implying

Atleast wieskamp is playing alright 11/5/2/1/1

im holding out hope for the kid but right now he definitely needs to fill out weight wise.

[duncan2150]

Atleast wieskamp is playing alright 11/5/2/1/1


it's better for him today and could have score more with some threes he is used to hit.

Like what i see from Tre Jones.

[BackHome]

That is why we need to tank and I mean get a top 3 pick cause that is the only way we going to bring in legit talent. The good thing is that it looks like we are going to really suck which is a good thing cause I am all in on the TANK>>..

as long as spurs dont keep passing on more talented players for their "guys"

[Darius Bieber]

We were only supposed to tank during the regular season smh

[objective]

Hey if more talented players want to be Spurs, they need to play at the combine to prove how much they want it.

How else is Brian Wright and the rest of the front office supposed to judge them?

All those mocks never get the Spurs pick right because they never limit it to combine scrimmage only.

[Gibbz]

I think Primo is gonna be good. Good lord Vassell has been shockingly bad in this SL. Gotta be concerned that a year two lotto pick is looking this bad against scrubs.

[Russ]

I've been going to Summer League games since the Pyramid in Long Beach, but this team takes the cake!

[BackHome]

Man Sengun is looking really good for Houston - I am seeing Dark Days ahead of us and I am not talking about months I am talking about years.........

[Blackhaus]

Sheesh, Johnson would have been a good pick for the Spurs, an athletic 3 or 4. He looked good for Atlanta in Summer league. Hawks have so many athletic forwards, makes the Spurs roster look so meh

[BatManu20]

He’s been playing really well for them. Basically looks like what they thought Cam Reddish would be. Good, young player.

[slick'81]

we got mcdermoot though

[Russ]

And then to revisit history, would Halliburton have been a better pick than Vassell? The questions never end . . .

[Blackhaus]

But look at our character, no contest

[Dejounte]

J Johnson has been playing C for them due to his defensive limitations on the perimeter.

[Blackhaus]

J Johnson has been playing C for them due to his defensive limitations on the perimeter.

And? There’s no positions in summer league. He’s looked hands down better than anybody one the Spurs summer league roster including our 1st round pick last year. Front office can eat a dick. Rootin for Primo but damn they dropped the ball

[Dejounte]

You mentioned he could play 3 or 4. I answered why he couldn’t. That’s all.

Is this the first time people are watching summer league? A lot of guys doing well right now are not going to be heard of months from now. And I say that even if Primo was doing super well.

[John B]

I actually like Tre scoring and even taking a deep 3. He looks so natural out there, and agin with his burst of speed and surprising athleticism.

Weiskamp, meh. I don’t know if he’s an NBA player. If he’s a catch and shoot, he better learn to move without the ball and not just wait in a corner.

[Russ]

Weiskamp, meh. I don’t know if he’s an NBA player. If he’s a catch and shoot, he better learn to move without the ball and not just wait in a corner.

Weiskampf may well be a stiff. But to be fair he does seem to mix it up a bit under the offensive glass, usually pretty much alone.

And he does actually play some decent defense. And he does hit some threes.

He's got a chance, but there were higher upside options at 41.

[timvp]

CREAM Team practicing that classy tanking :tu









Seriously, though, that was a painful watch.

[Teamduncan21]

it may or may not translate to nba. its just a way to gauge raw skills. For instance him playing center might be too small in nba. so dont worry too much. Remember Kyle anderson is like mvp of summer league?

not saying vassel will suddenly become good, just saying summer league is not enough to assess talents

[Dex]

But look at our character, no contest

Nicest bunch of guys this side of the Mississippi.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Fvck!
