Dej0-10te untouchable
I am really liking Forbes. His hard cuts to free-up. He's learned to become a better ball handler. I'm telling you he is outplaying Murray. Now Whittington is intriguing with his better than 40% 3 pointer, good bruiser. I just don't know how good he depends PNR

Considering that they were perfectly fine drafting super-seniors the very next year, yeah. I can see wanting to get 19-year-old for the future upside. But Brogdon/Bolden or Brogdon/Bell would have answered a lot of questions right now, and they could have used this second on GLdP if they wanted a guy with a high ceiling but lower floor for a PG prospect.
Hopefully all three of these guys will play better with the big club, though.
Yeah, watching him I was like "C'mon RC get that guy!" Haha. I've seen him this one time, though, so my guess is that he doesn't look like this every game. Seriously, though, isn't Miami collecting frontcourt players like we are collecting Backcourt players? Let's make a deal.
I am going to be more neutral since you missed it:
More accurately, in the closing minutes I remember Bertans and White missing 3s and Forbes missed the 3 that could have won it, however, the team was ahead and the shots missed were good looks. Until the last seconds they had the lead. Dijon gave away the lead by the opposing guard driving to the rim twice on him on straight line drives, the game winner was by the guy he was assigned to. He missed all of his shots, one a layup, the other a floater, and he continued to have TO in the second half by getting fancy dribbling one on one. His second half in this game was bad.
Pop and RC saw all of that. I hope they aren't complacent.
He has work to do but you're being a little tough my friend; he's still a young dude. He better listen to the criticism with a positive open ear.....
RC isn't the great drafter everyone thinks he is. Guy has just gotten lucky a few times.
yes. Definitely Milwaukee got the steal.
Dijon is young, he can still develop. Despite my criticism it's not like I am giving up on him bc he's very young still, but he needs to improve a lot.
dope, the replay for the game is already on on Watch ESPN
Welp, this is the last summer league game thread I make this year...
As a fellow UVa alum, I was dying for the Spurs to draft Brogdon. But in truth, he would have never gotten the playing time in SA that he did with the Bucks. Pop would have had him in the G-league, and he never would have won ROY.
I don't think anyone cares who makes the GT for SL.
RC Buffoon checkmated himself while other GMs were playing Checkers.
As soon as he grows 3 inches and learns to distribute like a real point, maybe.
Brogdon was NBA-ready. His game management was described as being similar to Andre Miller's. As soon as Parker went down, he would've been the starting PG while Pop keeps Patty with the second unit.
And with Brogdon on board, PATFO didn't need to do stupid like giving Patty that ridiculous contract. They could've drafted someone like Jonah Bolden to fill in a pressing need.
You nailed it. Im uncertain how you get so much hyoe in college for being really ty at the one thing you are supposed to be good at. The playoff game where he turned it over 4 consec times before initiating offense should have been enough for the coaches to put him in ball handling 101. You hear me say it all the time, todays nba is less skilled than any other era.
Getting Manu was sheer luck.
Getting Parker was due to Sam Presti's due diligence.
The Spurs even lucked out on Kawhi. They wanted Kay or Valenciunas over him.
I love how people keep using that argument.The point was that Brogdon was READY to play at BOTH guard positions. He would've filled Parker's role perfectly once he went down. If not, he'd be ready to come in at anytime nonetheless.
We wouldn't be rolling the dice with two young guys who essentially play the same position, and we could've gone after another young player at a different position of need instead of stacking ourselves with unproven PGs.
Yeah, maybe. I don't like to think about it any more. He was the most Spursy guy ever in the draft both on and off the court, and he was dying to play for us, and he filled a need. But that brilliant PATFO...
I was personally crushed that we passed on him.
Well played!
of course.
then when he plays, he doesn't have rhythm nor chemistry and guys would be complaining team got a 24 year old senior citizen from college.. and he can't play, nor is he going to get better bc he's old (that one is me with the ageism
Spurs trying to find long pg that can score by attacking. Its what theyve had success with. If murray wasnt so dumb hed be a good player.Yeah, maybe. I don't like to think about it any more. He was the most Spursy guy ever in the draft both on and off the court, and he was dying to play for us, and he filled a need. But that brilliant PATFO...

I agree with you on all the above.
You think the Bucks will trade Brogdon for Murray?
After all, Murray supposedly has much higher upside, and was drafted by the best front office in the business (or so some claimed).
