Summer league: First impressions

Scoot is for real.

Shaedon is...... coasting? He had a rough game today but he grabbed 8 boards and 4 dimes so it's not like he's standing around doing nothing. He just wasn't hitting the shots that he usually hits.

Rupert has potential. He needs a lot of time in the weight room and he doesn't have much of a shot, but I love his defense and his hustle. Give him a couple years.

Murray has done nothing. I'm just not seeing it. This guy is supposed to be NBA ready.

Jabari Walker IS ready. Give him 20 minutes a game next season.

Badji is not going to be on the team next season. Reath looked WAY better today.

 

Reath is a legit backup center.

 

Good thoughts. In fairness to Murray, the chaos of summer league is exactly the opposite environment in which he might excel... especially on a Scootless team that has no one that can generate shots for others.

 

I think he’ll be okay as a spot up shooter but he has to do more than that.

 

Michael Devoe is better then Keon Johnson

 

That’s not saying much.

 

I not to worry about Murray he is catch and shoot player so you don't have a guard that can make that happen as we didn't tonight you get a game like this for him. His overall defense was good and got few rebounds.

 

First impression - we took Kris Murray too high. He’s missed most of his wide open corner 3s and I don’t really notice him in any other way.

 

Sure, but he still needs the team framework, offensively and defensively, to function. I've never believed he was going to be a "shine-on-his-own" player.

 

But overall tonight the defense was what I was impressed with. Walker is looking good overall on both the side of ball. He definitely should see minutes this year.

Yeah Walker looks a lot better.

 

Walker looks to have had a really effective offseason training approach and or it’s just coming together for him.

 

I remember posters getting annoyed with me last year when I was saying Keon sucked in summer league.

 

I think people keep forgetting that he’s even on the team.

 

Not defensively, imo.

 

Wemby will surpass Paul George as the GOAT when it's all said and done.

 

He will never be as good as summer league mvp Bo Outlaw.

 

Me too. They got back on defense and clogged the lane effectively.

 

Scoot looks great
Sharpe has not looked good. He has not developed being able to drive to the rim. He often gets caught in no man’s land. Pretty disappointed in him. Hopefully he is still working hard.
Jabari has improved and is looking to contribute more this year.
Murray looks invisible out there, it may be just be summer league but disappointed so far, should of picked a project upside center imo.
Rupert is looking like a long project but has shown a few flashes.
