    yeah, caught that this AM. Posturing. I have a feeling everything will still happen off season that you would normally see, just not an official backed manor and fashion..lots of private or sponsored events etc.

    I already saw that, Fams. You need to get up earlier in the morning. Where do you keep the cereal so I can stop asking?

    Meh, I think Summer League is better for checking out DLeague talent. It's absolutely pointless for rookies. It's just an early chance for fans to see their newest recruits in action.

    Wonder what would happen if, in this attitude of one-up-gamesmanship, the players of the teams that made it to the Finals refused to come out of the locker rooms for Game 1? Can you imagine the shit storm?

    HCP- Please do not start a thread that says the NBA has canceled summer league when they in fact have not canceled summer league. So fucking annoying.

    What would be the point of doing that? It would turn most fans completely against the players, since they are under contract for this season.

    What was the story when you clicked on the link in my original post? At 11:00AM it was a story about how the NBA had just cancelled the Summer League.
