[The Midnight]

Enough of giving VJ a BJ guys, this is a Jazz forum…

Let’s talk about our players.

VJ with a hell of a stat line for his first NBA game. He might end up rookie of the year.

It’s not an NBA game bro, c’mon.

I thought Ace looked gassed when he was out there in the second half. He did some good things during all of that.

Has a rookie ever won MVP??

Ace seems like he'll need some time to become a man. He turns 19 in August.

Don’t understand taking Ace out at the 6 minute mark of the 4th and not bringing him back in the rest of the game. I know he was struggling but that’s what summer league is for. Makes no sense to me.

He was fighting fatigue, and he was forcing things. Not sure how much he really worked out during pre-draft.

I know you're probably half joking but nothing about him looked like he's a rookie did it?

Oh I thought we were just trolling The Midnight.

Bailey is going to need stuff run for him as a Rookie on offense. His first lesson is learning this fact.

It's so interesting to watch these guys play in this setting after watching hours and hours of film of them in college. Even though SL is poor quality, it is still played in an NBA style. It's so much different than NCAA and most players are in different roles.

That was pretty bad.

In the 2nd half he could barely keep his feet under him.

Ace has made himself a lot of haters, many view him as a primadonna and want to see him fail. Moreso than the usual hateful Internet.

Hope he finds a way to block it out and get to work, because if he doesn't there will be a lot of negativity around everything he does for at least his first year.

 

[Coach Ellis]

I thought Ace and WCJ both looked good tonight. Pretty excited about their futures tbh. Also pleased with the improvement from Sensabaugh and Cody. Jazz aren’t expected to be good this year, but it’s nice to see the young guys show some flashes tonight. Collier and Flip too.

Well, so much for Ace starting from day one.

Well, so much for Ace starting from day one.

He should start and play 30 minutes a night from the first game. We need to let him develop as much as possible and play through his mistakes. One poor performance in a summer league game changes nothing.

Collier's shot not looking any better than last year probably worried me more than anything tonight.
