    I worry a bit, until he proves me wrong, just because of his size. It's not clear that he'll be able to get his shots against NBA defenders.

    Game Thread Jul 08, 2025 07:00pm: Thunder Vs Jazz (Summer League)

    I'll admit that I haven't watched yet and was only able to glance at the box score occasionally, but it's a little hard for me to see how Clayton gets so much love after finishing with starters' low +/- and a 5 for 14 shooting night (at one time, it was 2 for 11, wasn't it?). He finished with...

    Someone needs to do a story on JZ Zaher. That one doesn't make too much sense either. (Saw him on the bench during yesterday's game.)

    Is Key the coach? (It doesn't matter what Key told him)

    NBA Summer League Wild Overreaction Thread

    Man, too many people concerned about the wrong things with Ace. I was not an Ace "stan" going into the draft, but still think he has a relatively high ceiling and hope the Jazz can optimize his career. But whether or not he scored much in his first game is the least important thing to worry...

    VJ clearly in better shape (and Sixers generally were in better shape than the Jazz). I don't have any problem with what I saw from Ace tonight, but he'll need to (and will) improve his stamina over time

    Philly's got to be over the moon for Edgecombe.

    I'm only to the beginning of the second quarter yet, but Pelle Larsson schooling Carter Bryant early on.

    2025 Off-Season Trade Ideas Thread

    It's the contracts more than anything. Everyone knows Clarkson was a far worse player, but he got snatched right up by a ECF contender once the price was right.

    Salt Lake City Summer League: July 5-8 @ Huntsman Center

    How bad/good is Cody Williams?

    Somewhere between 325 & 350?

    How bad/good is Cody Williams?

    Listed weights are often like listed heights. Once they appear for rookies, they don't change very often, even despite plenty of evidence that they're not accurate.

    Collin Sexton traded to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

    I'd really like to know how much the pressure from Rich Paul played into this trade (if at all).

    Ace Bailey may be 6'10

    There's actually data on this: Boozer was listed as 1/4" taller without shoes during his combine measurement than Ace. Given that Ace was measured less than 2 months ago, I'm guessing his height has not changed. As someone who's growing older, I know that losing height over time is a real...
