    I like Montero. He's still raw, but man he could be good if given a little more time.

    That was a good, quick drive by Connaughton. That's the fastest I've seen him move.

    People still forget how young Vonleh is. Dude is definitely very athletic.

    That's what I'm thinking. I wouldn't mind giving him some PT at SG next year. I'm way more impressed with him than I was with Crabbe a couple years ago.

    Really? Crabbe put up some really solid numbers in SL.

    "A couple years ago". Not the same as last year.

    He's definitely being more aggressive. Still concerned that he can't get his outside shot going.

    I hate throw-in D League point guards that just jack up shots instead of getting the ball to the people who matter.

    Montero has a natural feel for the game. Really impressed by him but seems like he has Travis Outlaw syndrome sometimes.

    Vonleh is athletic for sure but sometimes it looks like he's never touched a basketball.

    I'd like to see some post up game from Vonleh, he could be a good one with his lower body power and big hands. But it looks like he wants to be a 3 point shooter.

    Let's be honest here....... nobody runs post ups in summer league. He would never get the ball.

    I love watching Sabonis. I bet he was fucking hilarious when he was on the team.
