    Not sure how those two compare at all. Bayless won SL MVP by driving to the hoop and either scoring or drawing fouls. It didn’t translate to the league. He never got those calls in the NBA.

    One thing to keep in mind: Keegan isn’t the normal rookie due to his age.

    So while he will arguably look the best in summer league, you’re not really comparing apples to apples.

    For instance, it would be like if Paolo/Jabari went to summer league in 2 years from now.

    Looked good though. But if Ivey sucks up the joint you can’t really compare until Ivey is two years deep.

    Well they both are dominating summer league, that’s how they compare. summer league domination doesn’t mean much.

    Schmitz loved Keegan as well. Looks like the Kings finally got it right. I don't care who he's playing, that shot is flawless.

    I'm happy with Shaedon, but wanted Keegan Murray to an almost unhealthy extent...

    Me too and agree. Hopefully John Calipari is right, and Sharpe a superstar in the making.

    Where exactly am I not calm?
    This is the summer league thread, right?
    Gotta talk about the good with the bad.

    What’s up with blazers fans always thinking when someone brings up the “bad” it’s “calm down” “stop crying”. Weird vibes.

    It's summer league--bigs usually struggle in summer league because the guards usually suck/are ball hogs.

    he missed the same shots today that he hit yesterday. happens. still think he's gonna be a 15+ ppg scorer day 1 in the league, getting closer to 20 if he gets enough touches.
