Summer League Notes And Discussion

That step back of Mitchell is nasty.

He'll be a rotation player for sure. Great, great trade to get him.

Really excited to have this guy aboard. He will contribute earlier than most rooks we had for the last few years for sure.

Great to see Rudy there. The leader of this team.

Too bad he came too late to see Mitchell tear it up.

Rudy is the man. Doing it all.

How does a guy like this fall that far?

If Mitchell were two inches taller, he'd been top 10, maybe top 5.

God damn.

League sources report Lindsey has already offered Utah's pick and Raul Neto for Denver's first rounder in 2018. Woj reporting Denver GM has blocked all incoming calls from the 801 area code.

Yeah I hope that's the case. I hope they give this kid a fair shake.

On another note, Wallace looked pretty good and had spot minutes at the three. Hope they bring in another vet (free agency) though if Hayward decides to walk. I got no problem with Ingles starting as long as he has a good backup (like Ingles was).

Wasn't there a report a Euro team had interest in NWG? If so, he may not play in Vegas. Not really concerned. Mitchell will be able to play some 1. Ingles has also done that. So Jazz are covered behind Rubio/Exum/Neto.

Need a big wing if Hayward leaves. Hood can score, but he can't defend. Guess Diaw would probably be back as our backup 4/5 injury insurance in case Favors shatters again.

Damn, he flew back from San Diego and went to the summer league game?
Rudy, I already love you. Just Stop.
(But Chocolates, champagne and that french accent might get me to do something I'll most certainly regret in the morning).

Cool I hope that's the case cause he's a good player, protects our rights to him and we could still use him down the line. It also solves our logjam at the point right now. Let's give Neto another year now that his buddy Rubio is running the show.

Wow. Extremely impressive

And Dante not too shabby, either. Wouldn't it be fun to see those two off the bench? I know Quin staggers his starters/subs so we may never see all subs in together. But I'd go with Hood over Ingles in the starting lineup. I think Utah needs a volume 3 shooter alongside Rubio.

Subs:
PG: Dante
SG: Donovan
SF: Ingles
PF: Johnson
C: Favs or ?

That's a pretty good unit. And definitely one that could play with some pace while raining down 3's or P&R with Derrick. Hayward just HAS to re-sign. I am so in love with this team right now.
