Las Vegas SL - Jazz vs. Rockets

Bradley is semi-dominating. He's playing good defense and getting on top of the rim on consecutive drives. He has 13 and 7 in the first half.
 
Frankie Ferrari is the worst SL player I've seen play for the Jazz ever.
Yeah. Would rather they just take the 5 best guys they can get that are healthy and just say “the hell with it” let’s see what a little bit of talent can do together.

Edited for clarity. . .

Sorry. I worded that poorly. They are short handed and keep trotting out the same terrible guys to fill the same positions. Just add a couple of guys that are floating around and see what they can do. Putting trash out there pulls the rest of their guys down. They’ve done it a couple of times over the past few summers. At a certain point, it becomes clear that some guys don’t even belong in SL. Stop playing them.
 
Last year in the Las Vegas league, the Jazz tanked a couple of games so that they did not have to play extra games in the playoff. I think the team intentionally tanked it this year too.
 
How did Oni look tonight?

He struggled a bit trying to contain Houston's small, quick guards. He doesn't look super quick laterally. Offensively, he had a few nice drives and kickouts. He hit a couple 3s and a mid-range jumper off the dribble. He's showing some flashes, but he's not quite ready for primetime right now.

At this point, the Jazz have played 7 SL games already. Bradley has double-doubled just about every game he's played. JWF and Brantley aren't playing. No one else is really proving anything new. Oni is getting a few reps with the ball in his hands, but isn't having much success. Jazz are getting a look at George King, basically.
 
Both teams shot 14 free throws. Jazz had 3 guys shoot foul shots: Bradley, Reed and McGrew. Bradley, King, Reed and Morgan looked decent for the Jazz. Everyone else looked poo-poo.
 
Bradley is the only guy on the court who will be on the roster this year. Oni and Brantley will probably run with the Stars. Not sure what the deal is with JWF.
