At least they are consistent.
I don’t think there’s been a worse run franchise for the last 15 years than the Kings
At least they are consistent.
Banchero is nice!
Queta looks like he could be a keeper for the Kings. Good size, mobility, good in the pick and roll, blocks shots... overall knows his role. Useful player
Bulls Knicks just started
Wanna get a look at Dalen Terry and also curious how Keels looks. Scouted both pretty hard for 20 and 38 ranges respectively iirc. Going to be the biggest what could've been if Dalen Terry does well and Branham flops. I was targeting Terry at 20 so the two kinda have a Vass/Hali relationship. Will be interesting to track but both seem like about a wash.
Montero, Sims, Grimes, McBride all guys I'm hoping do well.
Why is that relevant? it's not like we passed on Dalen Terry anyway... he went #18 and we took Branham @ 20, so what's the point in revisiting the choice?
We did pass on Haliburton, but this is NOT the case...
Yeah, not only couldn't we draft Terry, his team is apparently awful and he's a glue guy. If there's anyone not suited for this kind of play it's him.
I was wondering if Bran would help push Terry into range for 20 in combo with other potential reaches and it worked out the other way around. There is a universe where Spurs might get Dalen Terry instead so I'm looking at the 2 with that perspective a bit for fun in a what could've been sense. Not sure the official consideration on Terry, just saying I scouted him in that range because he might've fallen around SAs picks there and been avail to consider picking.
Nothing crazy though, I agree it's a slightly different situation than Vass/Hali but still, the draft was a very fluid situation and with just a few different twists and turns the lay of the league could shift drastically and I'm glad it didn't because even with small sample size I've liked the look from Bran compared to Terry. That may be a future discussion of a steal with consideration of production at 20 vs. 18 since it's so neck and neck. That whole range was pretty fluid in mocks and those names were quite interchangeable there so there's def a sense of "what could've been" amongst those commonly mocked names in that range.
He looks really good but it’s still just Summer League
Need to see it against full pros before I invest stock in it.
Good to see Mr. Steal your girl back sitting court side.
Lol OKC has Jaylin Williams and Jalen Williams on the court at the same time.
Chet has got amazing open court burst for his size
Damn OKC has tons of promising depth.
Haha HWSNBN is going to ref 2nd half of tonight's Knicks game
Chet needs about 50 pounds
at least he can wear his skinny jeans without them sagging then
A summer to forget: Watching the game last night (SA/HOU) and it occurred to me that who, in theory, should be our top three players were out for various reasons. Primo and Lil Weezy were last years picks and again, in theory, should be more advanced than the other squad members. Than Sochan comes down with the 'rona and he is done.
What looked like it would be a compe ive summer league team now looks pretty meh.
I know winning is not as important or even necessarily strived for but I still don't like losing even these scrimmage type of games.
Barlow, Days and of course Wesley all look interesting. Just have to wonder, what could have been.
Boy, are you going to be unhappy this year. If you can’t handle losing SL games, you should probably get some sort of counseling. The ONLY things we’ll probably be able to take away from this year are player development and draft positioning.
this year and many others tbh.
wesley looked fatigued but still showed flashes. i also think he suffered the same woes that primo experienced running the point in that he wasn't playing off ball and had to deal with the absence of any high screens or picks. but, unlike primo, blake can at least get to the basket. he just needs to learn how to finish (although he does draw a decent amount of fouls) and dish out. a little more muscle mass will also help him out.
Yeah, he's impressed me so far. Great hands and feel for the game. Him and Josh Giddey already have pretty good chemistry. I'm trying not to be impressed by what OKC has going but they are building up a nice group there.
OKC has me staggering a bit, just bursting at the seams with interesting pieces.
SGA at the helm, with Mann and Giddey from 21
But reloaded in 22 with Chet, Dieng, Jalen Williams and Jaylin Williams.
Plus stuff like Wiggins and Poku if you can get it to work. And Dort is looming whom I like but not sure I'm enamored with him as much but still something producing and an interesting possible contributor.
Even Earl-Robinson was interesting to follow in school though not sure he's clicking yet in the pros
Am I the only one who sees OKC as a weird-looking team with mismatched parts and wonders if they'll be any good? I like Giddey and Holmgren, but who else is that great other than SGA? I still feel like they'll win games when SGA goes off and not many others.
Oh, I am well aware of the upcoming season and what it will entail. Maybe I will consider the counseling.
Not Spurs related, but Summer League news: “New Orleans Pelicans rookie E.J. Liddell suffered a torn ACL in his right knee, the team announcedTuesday. Liddell, 21, sustained the injury during the third quarter of the Pelicans’ Summer League game against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday.”
Wow that sucks for the Rookie. I did like him for the 25th pick, but obviously Wesley has outperformed and Barlow is making me not missed-out on drafting a Center.
