Spurs 2021 SLC & Vegas Summer League Thread

[offset formation]

This is your whole schtick, isn't it?

a softer, kindle, gentler RD2 or TGY if you will.

Jalen Johnson's playing like his life depends on it in this Summer League: today he finished with 25 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, & 1 block, and was +11 for the game, the best of any player on either team. If he and De'Andre Hunter steadily develop, the Hawks can use John Collins as a trade piece to shore up whatever weaknesses they see while also clearing salary space. They're in a good spot now. Smart of them to sign him, even if he's not in their long term plans.

Jalen Johnson was the clear cut guy to pick at 12th and they picked some combo scrub that wasn't even the 4th option at ALABAMA

spoken like someone who never watched a minute of college basketball.........jalen will not be good until his 2nd or 3rd nba contract when hes on his 4th team........primo was the best player & wouldve been a top 5 pick next draft

I don't think you look at Mocks but no way in is Primo a top 5 pick in this next draft - At best he would be around 12 now if he was super athletic and had everything else then yeah maybe but he is not super athletic hence he would never be a top 10 especially in this next draft

I agree. Of course its easy to say he woulde top 5 next draft when theres no way to prove that.

This coming year will tell.

Although few and far between, Walker has had games where he looks absolutely electric, like a superstar. That Houston game comes to mind. Will he ever put it together, I don't know but this year is a make or break for him in terms of his ceiling.

Duarte has been consistently good. I thought he’d be good, but was wary of taking a prospect that’s 24 years old in the lottery where the Spurs should be fishing for upside. I am kind of regretting not being higher on him, but then I’d just be disappointed the Spurs didn’t take him.

Oh YOU were wary, you're regretting? Basketball takes in a Basketball forum don't annoy me it's when writing like we or our thoughts even matter n over valuing our opinions like they mean anything

I don't regret Spurs didn't draft Jalen Johnson. We have to keep our tradition of drafting known nice and humble yet hard-working guys. Stay away from guys who has too much ego.

[Rito3d30]

Will primo play?

I like Primo at 12th. I like Primo at 12th . We did good… but then again, couldn’t Spurs just gotten this guy?

[Degoat]

Not to hate but Franz Wagner hasn’t look very good for all the people that were high on him lol hasn’t necessarily played bad but he’s been pretty invisible when I’ve watched him play

[cd98]

If summer league performance = success in NBA, then Tre Jones is setting up to have a great year.

If Jalen Johnson does well at Atlanta, good for him. It doesn't mean he'd do well at San Antonio.

His problem hasn't been talent, anyway, it's been coaching. He couldn't stand being coached at Duke and got out of there. Maybe in a player's league he does better, but let's not jack off over a summer league.

That Houston game is close to two years ago, isn't it?

Spurs hopeful Primo can return to court today after missing much of last week with a bruised knee.

I can’t wait to see Primo get a DNP - Hormones
