Yeah, every NBA junkie needs to go to Vegas at least once. It's a real experience.
I'm probably going to go to the Sacramento SL in 2025 if the Spurs still participate.

Most of the stuff I eat is on the strip:
Nobu (Caesars), Tao (Venetian), Best Friend (Park MGM), The Henry (Cosmo - Brunch spot) - most steak houses are pretty damn good so theres plenty of those. Eataly in Park MGM is a cool sort of open market/restaurant space for light meals/wine.
Ferraro's Ristorante is an off strip Italian spot I really liked.
Barrys Downtown Prime (steakhouse) at Circa is nice and the pool (Stadium Swim) is so baller to hang at and watch sports.
Off strip I like an Italian place called

Yeah, that's the best thing about the move to Vegas -- you can go with old faithfuls and try a little something new each time.

I hit Vegas last year that thought it was pretty cool. I think it would be nice to go there with the full plan to see games all day. As it was, I watched only a few and was there for only those first two days. I fully intend to go back one of these years, but I want to hit up Utah or I guess this Cali SL before doing that.

Spurs foward Sidy Cissoko's participation in summer league will be limited following arthroscopic knee surgery.
A procedure to clean up lingering damage to his right knee was performed last month. The second-year player will practice with the team's summer league squad next week, but he will be on the sidelines in Sacramento when the Spurs play three games in the California Classic beginning July 6.

Dang Bruno this kid ain't to bad he kind of reminds a little bit of Danny Green with better handles - He seems like a smart kid who can play defense and not bad at shooting or finishing at the rim. Ok, now I am really interested in Summer Leauge..lol

Also
I know it's uncommon for 3rd year players to go to summer league, but I would have liked to see Branham or Wesley there, at least for a game or 2 to get some work in. The must be pressure with the options looming, I would hope that they wanted to show off some improvements

Cidy has the massive legs that disguise his upper torso. I believe the 250 lb weight. He looked quick and strong. I hope he can put all together with his shooting because he has legit strength for his position

The weight loss definitely helps the chances of Sidy playing the three, though I skill-wise he's nowhere near an SG. Really hoping he's been working on that shot, though. He won't make it in the league as a buttershot, but if he were to find a way to do so, it won't be a wing. So the Spurs would be doing him a disservice if they are trying to turn him into a dribble-driver. But given that they seem unable to not go for passing and ball-handling over shooting, I am not all that hopeful.
And yes on Branham and Wesley. But your post implies they're on the roster bubble, and I wouldn't assume they are. The Spurs thought they didn't have room for a top-10 pick this year in large part because they have Branham and Wesley on the roster. I don't know that they have any intention of moving on from those guys.

He has tremendous vision and feel for the game. Solid D. If he can just get respectable on the shot he'll be a great cog for a while on this team -- that's the big if here.

Interested to see if the lighter weight helps Cissoko's game.
Also
I know it's uncommon for 3rd year players to go to summer league, but I would have liked to see Branham or Wesley there, at least for a game or 2 to get some work in. The must be pressure with the options looming, I would hope that they wanted to show off some improvements
That new facility is there and is state of the art. If I'm one of those guys I'm living in that fucking place putting up 3000 shots a day.

Sidy reminded me, build-wise, of Anthony Mason (RIP). Massive body, comparatively long arms. Okay style wise both have good vision, too passing and ball handling for a big, rigged defenders, and can’t shoot. Mason made it because you don’t really have to shoot back in the 90s. Not any more.

You have to buy a day pass. The games are basically one after the other, and you don't leave in between. Even last year, there was plenty of room before Wemby's game, but people who tried to show up just for that game didn't get the best seats. That is unless they bought the VIP tickets.

I don't mind the Spurs bringing back whomever they want for summer league. But I hope they plan to bring in competition for their two-way spots. Ingram may well grab that 15th spot in the regular roster. But if he doesn't he'd obviously take one of the three two-way spots. The other two shouldn't be promised to guys like Duke, Gray or Bouyea. If they win the spots, fine, the team can bring in 21 guys, which likely means six guys for the two-way spots or seven guys for the two-way spots and/or the 15th spot (or I guess eight guys for the 14th-17th spots, but apparently Bassey's in line to get his spot back with no competition). As the team gets filled in more and more with vets, the two-way spots are going to become important again.
ChumpDumper
07-09-2024, 11:25 PM
I can see the Spurs' giving at least an initial two-way to Bouyea and/or Duke. If you can find a guard who can credibly run an offense in the G-League, giving him a little bump in pay for at least part of the season to keep him in Austin isn't a bad idea.
Chinook
07-09-2024, 11:49 PM
A question I have is what would it take to keep Ward in the States? Is he looking for a guaranteed multi-year contract? Is a two-way enough? What about an X-10 deal? I actually like him as an option in case there is upheaval with the roster later in the season. He seems like a guy who can backfill for Champagnie or could hold down a wing role if the Spurs find themselves down a couple at the trade deadline. I want to make a more comprehensive thread talking about the bottom of the roster. I think I might wait to see what happens with Bassey first, because discussion about five spots (two of which are with the main roster) is significantly different than discussion about only four.

Last season, he was paid €150K (about $160K). He had a very good year so he can expect to be paid more this season in Europe. Maybe around $300K?
A two way way contract, with the promise that he won't be cut in the first couple of months, might be enough to convince him.

Summer roster bolstered
The Spurs added three players to their Vegas roster: forward Donovan Williams, guard D'Moi Hodge and forward Ibrahima Diallo.
Williams, a 22-year-old Houston native, and Hodge were NBA rookies last season. It should benefit Castle to have experienced players to work with as he looks to improve his decision-making as a point guard.
Williams played in two games last season for Atlanta after going undrafted out of UNLV following two seasons at Texas. Hodge, 25, played in seven games last season for the Lakers after going undrafted out of Missouri following two years at Cleveland State.
Diallo, 25, is a 7-foot undrafted rookie from Central Florida after playing two seasons at Ohio State and two seasons at San Jose State.
Guard David Duke Jr. also rejoined the Spurs in Vegas after having his free agent rights renounced so the Spurs could sign Chris Paul and trade for Harrison Barnes.
Summer Spurs move to Vegas after leaving Sacramento with a splas (expressnews.com) (https://www.expressnews.com/sports/spurs/article/summer-spurs-move-vegas-leaving-sacramento-splas-19565446.php)

There's a few of us Reed truthers on here. The only good thing is that we didn't have to witness the Spurs pass on him. Sucks that he is on Houston, but at least we didn't gift him to them like Sengun.

On another note why isn’t Amen Thompson playing for HOU or Jalen Hood Schifino for the Lakers? Neither proved enough to not be here playing.

Sheppard's looked good. He's doing exactly what he needs to do, leverage his shooting gravity to force guys to guard him more closely, then utilize that to make up for his relative lack of burst/first step. I'm not going to start slitting my wrists over him after just one summer league game, although you can bet that if he just played this way in a spurs uniform this entire board would be a huge semen cloud.
I am curious who the spurs would have taken if ultimately both he and Castle were available at 4 though; I suspect it still may have been Castle

Disagree on Amen. He started slow but his play post-ASB was damn impressive. I don’t think it’d be crazy to play him in SL but it doesn’t surprise me at all that they aren’t going that route.

I did just see he played on the US select team so that could be why I guess but still they said that Brandon Miller is gonna be playing in Vegas and Miller has proved Way more imo.
How was that a good pass?
He had one of the few humans in the world capable of catching it on the receiving end.

I’m a little surprised Miller is playing, but either way I don’t know if Miller proved “way more”.
Amen’s per 36: 15/10/4/2/1 on 57.6% TS while arguably already being an all-NBA caliber defender
He had a seriously impressive season. Again, not saying that he’s like Wemby and it would be blasphemous to have him in Summer League…but I don’t think it should be surprising he’s not there. You’re right though - could very well have something to do with Team USA.

I don't know man Risacher looked kinda lost out there I thought. Early jitters? Really weak on drives. He will be fine though. Definitely had a better 2nd half for sure and finishing stats look good. Hit a pretty big three towards the end there. That game was actually pretty exciting lol
I'm intrigued by the Wiz with the Carrington/Kyshawn/Sarr trio. Pretty fresh roster renovation and looked decent.

Most people don't realize how fucked Nuggets are.
It's just ridiculous how awful their rosters have been in most seasons.
To put things into perspective how good Jokic is, he won 48 games with this rotation in 21-22 season.
Gordon, Monte Morris, Jeff Green, Barton, Bones Hyland, Austin Rivers, Jamychal Green, Campazzo, Zeke Nnaji, Bryn Forbes.
Two years later and everyone except Gordon is either out of the league or barely in on a minimum deal.
This season they'll have:
Murray, the most overrated player in the league, on an expiring contract because he still hasn't signed a max extension they offered him.
MPJ, negative IQ traffic cone who's only good for his Klay moments and some rebounding. He's also on a max contract which completely ruins their cap situation.
Gordon, the only role player on a fair deal, but next summer he'll have a player option so they can get even more fucked.
Nnaji, useless wing who can't shoot, score or rebound.
Braun, decent guard/wing off the bench, too bad he looks to be their second best guard as of now.
Holmes, torn achilles.
Cancar is another scrub, got extended for some reason, coming off ACL injury.
Deandre is a cheerleader at this point, unplayable.
Saric is their only free agency signing and will probably get way more minutes than he should because their roster is just that bad.
They have some more scrubs like Pickett, Watson, Strawhter who aren't even worth mentioning.
Their 2025, 2027 and 2029 picks have been traded away.
It's a fucking disaster, tbh.
If Jokic got injured, they'd be the worst team in the conference, even worse than Blazers and Jazz.
SpursFan86
07-13-2024, 11:54 AM
Yeah the Nuggets FO’s incompetence has been hidden by how dominant Jokic is. They’ve been pretty awful the past couple of years in terms of building around Jokic and setting themselves up for the next 2-3 years. Even if Jokic is a top 3 player in the league for another few years their outlook still isn’t too bright.

Last year, Barlow and Branham looked pretty phenomenal in the SL. Look at where that got us. Barlow isn't in the league and Branham isn't far behind. It's certainly great when a player does well, especially as a rookie, but it's just summer league.

That's the worst spot to be, tbh. Unless one of their guys develops into a true #1, the Rockets will be mediocre for years and drafting in the teens without ever getting the chance to get their guy.

Amen/Sheppard/Jabari/Sengun is a very solid core + they have a good amount of future draft picks from other teams that could land them a star (whether by trade or the draft itself). I get what you’re saying but not sure I’d describe them as being in some terrible spot; they have a more promising outlook than 2/3 of the league. That being said they’re still the Rockets so we just have to bank on them doing Rockets things :lol
