NBA SUMMER LEAGUE 2018

I went to the game last night and I am not seeing much improvement from Tony B. Made some very easy shots. Struggled with anything that was contested and gave us very little rim protection - like none at all. I think he is young enough that he may still develop but he right now I be nervous if we let Udoh walk and assume Bradley can be the insurance policy. Just not seeing it. He played in a pro am league against my sons team and knocked down four 3 pointers which really surprised me. Obvious he has been working on that part of his game but didn't see any of that last night.

The way he's running the floor, scoring off pick-and-rolls, catching the ball on the move, and finishing inside with 2nd and 3rd-effort plays looks encouraging to me. He's not going to be an elite rim protector. He's just not that vertical a player. He runs with a high motor, rebounds well and has a knack for impacting plays. I think he's a rotation player, which is what he was drafted to be. His role would be similar to Enes Kanter, though he's a better defender while not being as polished offensively.

He needs another year to develop, imo. He's a bit behind Deyonta Davis in the development curve.
 
HT from Idaho. Idaho voted for Trump. HT going to Russia to join KGB. Somebody tell Mueller.

I’m fairly sure Idaho is a part of Russia already... or is it Canada? Can’t remember...
 
I think Kelan Martin can be an NBA rotation player within a year. Like other rookies, he needs to chisel his body and increase his effort level, but his talent and confidence as a shooter is there. With a little work, he could be a better version of Moe Harkless, imo. He needs to rebound more though.

He had 8 boards in the first game.
 
Idk, Niang and Long could make the team. Just got to cut Stockton and Jerebko.

I know this will be unpopular here but really wish they wou!d do away with the Utah and Sacramento summer league and expand the Vegas one. Vegas summer league has every team. Better players. Make the Utah and Orlando summer league for g league players. Vegas has a lot of rookies and second year players.
