Trey Lyles Summer League highlights...

I was very impressed with the highlights and then I discovered that he ended up shooting 8-21 and had 4 turnovers. I would love to see the "low-lights", so to speak.
 
Wow, he is BEAST. That move at 1:14 is pretty ridiculous. The way he moves shows so much speed and grace. He looks stronger than last year too. I said it last year, but I feel even more now that I probably wouldn't trade anyone on our team for him. His potential seems so high as a go to scorer.

tonstermits, I didn't know I was supposed to. I thought we were here to keep it real. My bad!

Lyles' moves are very impressive indeed. He seems incredibly coordinated. His poor FG% for the game(8-21) came as a surprise to me and that's why I wondered about his "lowlights". Summer League is obviously learning time, so it is fine that Lyles is being assertive. On the other hand, before becoming a go-to guy in real games he may have to become a good role player - let's call it "The Kawhi Leonard Path to Glory" -, so it would be nice to see what he is doing wrong out there. :)

He's trying to run the offense as a point-forward with a bunch of scrubs he's never met before. He'll be better when he's flanked by Hayward, Hill, Johnson and Favors and he has a more defined role with more spacing. He's supposed to be pushing his limits in Summer League. What's encouraging is the range of skills he's showing. He won't be a primary facilitator in the regular season, but a secondary facilitator like Draymond Green is for the Warriors.

So when Hayward or Hood gets the defense to sag, they can give the ball to Lyles to run a second pick-and-roll or other action.

Kawhi Leonard Path To Glory sounds good to me.
 
I love this kid. He could evolve into an incredible scorer.

You bring up a good point...it's always good to see what someone is doing wrong so they can improve on those things. But I think it would take someone with absolutely no life at all to compile a video of a player's missed shots, turnovers and bad defensive plays. Highlights are fun to compile, lowlights, not so much.
