    We'd be running the seven seconds or less offense with Napier

    Although Zach hasn't look great overall, I do like his defense. Very aware and hustling. That play there he went straight up and drew the offensive foul. Good fundamentals.

    I think he has looked lost on both ends of the floor tbh, speed of the game looks to be frustrating him... visibly

    Zac needs to do what Lamarcus needed to do as a rookie.....get in the weight room and bulk up...he needs 25 lbs of upper and lower core muscle

    I don't see that but I do see him overthinking at times...rookies do that

    Swanigan looks like he is in excellent shape, real worker

    Markel Brown with some nice 'D' on Mitchel. Biggie gets blocked again.

    Swanigan is a man amongst boys as a rookie, you can tell he's older than his years when he's interviewed...the kid grew up faster than most have to

    There you go Biggie....use that bulk. He still was fading away on that shot even though he got fouled. Needs to finish going towards the hoop but good instincts.

    Griffin is kind of locking Swanigan up.

    Biggie just needs to put it up after his first move, he would've had a great look if he put it up off the spin instead of coming down with the ball.

    I have been saying it since we drafted him. Collins is a project and we shouldn't expect anything from him next season.

    They're just figuring each other out...doubt they've watched much film on the competition for summer league
