When we passed him the second time you could’ve tripped over my jaw. I mean, I was happy Keyonte was still there but I wanted to trade up to get Whitmore. He was THE dude.

I respect y'all, but you are putting way too much weight in to summer league games.

As he slipped to our pick I couldn’t believe it and was on the edge of my seat as the commissioner started in on the pick I repeated over and over please please please!!! Then Hendricks came out of his mouth I damn near threw my phone at the tv. One of if not my darkest draft watching moments. It’s at least up there with the Burke Draft. Lol
It’s what we got, but sure.
The problem with Williams is he has the same problems and is playing way worse than last year.

My whole issue with Williams is the same as what it is before the draft. He moves just like I envision some stick character moving, he has no meat on those bones. He’s not very explosive and I think it hurts his dribbling.
It's still the same year really. These guys finish college and then start preparing for the draft. They are in a gym, but not playing competitive basketball. There is no reason to think they are going to be better than they were in college yet. Williams was always a guy you had to imagine what his game would look like once he gets an NBA body. He was always a guy that was going to take some time.
I guess mostly I'm thinking about last year when a guy I really liked, Lively, was horrible in the Summer League and I kind of wrote him off, then he becomes one of the most important rookies last year. Podz and others who ended up having good seasons were bad too.
And the Summer League isn't even over. Still plenty of time for Cody to have a game or two where he pops.

Bronny is 6'1". People are worried about Dillingham who is 300% of the player Bronny is because of the height thing.

I would also guess Bronny has 40 pounds on Dilly.

Yep. Because he is way better than Bronny. Still a lot of doubters about him and he almost has a complete game. Bronny doesn't have that.
