It literally isn't.
Spurs shooting coaches already doing work on Bryant's shot, I see.![]()
It literally isn't.
On top of being the worst player all game - how did ingram have three times as many rebounds as him. Carter is supposedly longer and more athletic but he cant get any boards?
It isn't easy to get high #'s in rebounds when you are always guarding the other team's best player. You can't contest shots and go after rebounds at the same time, tbh.
Yeah, probably burn the tape on this one…pretty brutal all-around. Least he had a couple of dunks![]()
Literally? Prolly not. In general? Absolutely. As bad as the Spurs young players are, the summer league is so much worse.
Guys, I can't believe I'm the one to say this, but we knew he would take time. It's a process.
Would Keldon be getting Pts in these games? Probably. He loves to put up empty numbers vs lesser compe ion when the stakes are low.
Sochan? Nop, he doesn't have the skillset for it. He's not a primary scoring option. DJG would probably still be scoring more than him.
Which only goes to show you how irrelevant that comment was since Sochan >>>> Keldon in an actual NBA setting.
Wow you’re right he was defending some elite talent out there. No wonder he couldnt rebound
I think he is a decent talent on defense but he got cooked a few times. Filipowski was killing it. Has plenty of work ahead of him.
It doesn't matter if the talent is elite or not, he was still defending the other's team primary option, therefore the guy that usually takes the most shots and/or creates for others, which then usually leaves you out of position to go grab boards.
The shooting is starting to become a concern. He needs a good shooting night to get out of this funk and gain some confidence.
Your argument is Yes Keldon scores(averaged 20ppg in the real league btw) and Sochan wouldn't have a game designed for him (which makes it a completely different situation than the one in reference) so the comment about NBA players being able to play well in summer league is ...not true? Bruh.
Yeah I’m back to wanting to stick him in the Gleague for a year. Big project
Don't be delusional fam.
What? I don't get what you were trying to say. Say it in Argentinian so maybe I can understand, tbh.
My whole point is that Sochan wouldn't be putting up high pts total in the G-league, 'cause that's just not his game. I think it was clear to understand, tbh.
So Sochan wouldn't be putting up high points, not Keldon. That's more believable. He's 21. If he went into the summer league with the gameplan designed around him like the guys scoring a lot, he'd definitely be able to score. It's not his game and not his role. If he can drop 30 in the league he can drop 30 in the summer league.
He would definitely look good as a 21 yr old rookie in summer league. Summer league is worse than the g league. Summer league players are trying to make a g league roster. It isn't so much saying the Keldon and Sochan are good offensively, it's staring just how bad summer league really is that these bad offensive players would get buckets.
Sochan got 30 once in how many games? What kind of game plan can you design to make a non-shooting, below average dribbler score in bunches in summer league?
He scores mainly off rolls and cuts to the basket, he would depend on his teamates to get buckets, and as you said, teammates aren't very good in summer league. You are sorely mistaken if you think Sochan could be a 20 ppg guy in summer league, tbh.
You're sorely overestimating summer league. Bad offensive players in the NBA look like legit players in the G league. They don't pan out often. Once again, it's about how bad summer league is in comparison.
All of those players can at least shoot free throws with both hands, tbh.
You are dragging this into making me on Sochan, who I still like, but I think you are the one overestimating Sochan's offensive game. Ben Wallace is a HoF but he isn't suddenly going to turn into prime Hakeem Olajuwon vs G-league compe ion. Same happens with Sochan. To score a lot you need to have the ball in your hands, you aren't going to score 20+ a game on just cuts and put backs. You need to have on ball skills, and that just isn't Sochan's game.
Slightly exaggerating obvs but I'm not wrong.
Hey, you're talking about a former NBA starting point guard!
Speaking of which, Laprovittola would probably score more in summer league than Sochan, tbh.
I pointed out several times it was about the summer league being really bad and youre still fixated on Sochan.
Don't know what to tell ya buddy.
