NBA Summer League - Las Vegas // Game 2 - Spurs Vs Mavs 3:00 PM ESPN ESPN+

Spurs win!

[LeBowen]

Harper looked legit in this game. He already has elite ball handling skills and the way he controls the pace of the game is very Hardenesque. He is also a great playmaker and slasher. His biggest weakness is his 3 point shot.

Three of his 3pt misses were really close and the one he made was waved off, he'll get there.

No scouting report said much about his defense, but he put some serious effort in, he can surely be a positive defender.

Love Harper's poise, control, handles and his D might not be bad. There's a lot to look forward to in his game.
CB needs to get his shot under control, might need some G-League action this year.
I hope the defense we are seeing in Summer League carries over to the real season. That is intense D.

Dylan Harper will be better than Cooper Flagg. He's the truth man.

[Mugen]

I can't believe the Spurs lucked into f'n Dylan Harper

[BatManu20]

[BatManu20]

Needs to lock himself in the gym and work on his 3-point shot like most young players but his defense is elite at times and overall very good. His future is bright imo.

[ace3g]

Dylan Harper broke the forum there for about 10 minutes.

I think the Spurs vets are looking at the SL team defense and thinking “I better get my defensive together or one of the new guys will take my minutes”.

Duplicate

Edit: Source questionable, tbh.

[blizz]

Sign and trade Fox anyone?

[sfernald]

DJG is simply automatic offense. Dude scores in different ways at all 3 levels.

DJG = SGA

Cooper Flagg lookin like the appliance repairman with that facial hair

honestly this guy just installed my new tankless water heater the other day.

[Mr. Body]

If I had a daughter, Cooper's goatee would be an automatic door-closer for me.

[RC_Drunkford]

gotta give credit to the coach. These guys are all playing hard. I know he was on the Grizzlies staff under J.B. Bickerstaff before, so he knows a thing or two about grit and grind.

[sfernald]

loooooooooooooooooooooool the butthurt is strong in here

lol Flagg trying too hard. He’s played more minutes than Harper and CB combined practically.

[GAustex]

No denying the Spurs summer league team looks good

[TD 21]

The Mavericks don't have much choice with Irving injured and their retro roster construction, but Flagg masquerading as an offensive "engine" while Davis simultaneously does likewise primarily as a four next to two vertical spacing fives, is a recipe for a bottom feeding half court offense.

Despite the hype, I don't see Flagg ever becoming that. He looks like an elite complementary star in the making, a souped up Siakam.

Even if he's more so Tatum, a popular comp, that's nowhere near a "generational prospect".

Meanwhile, Harper looks as advertised, which is a classic offensive "engine" in the making.

[sfernald]

Harper is a true natural. Flagg play is really forced at this point. Harper just lets the game come to him. Looks so smooth out there in his limited minutes.
