It's going to be AWESOME! Thanks for posting as that means I can book my flight now. It's becoming a great event for summer in Vegas. I'll split the time down there between games and the pool at the Sapphire Club!
It's too big now. 30 teams play only about 5 games plus 2 guaranteed in the playoffs. The champ will have never played most of the teams. The Nevada Mafia, oops I mean the betting casinos, will decide the champ.
Jaren Jackson Junior is legit. Imagine Joakim Noah with Channing Frye shooting touch. The Grizz could be dangerous again very quickly if they can stay healthy. He's hit about 8 threes so far...
Stanton Kidd is very intriguing. Playing for Utah's summer league team. https://basketball.realgm.com/player/Stanton-Kidd/Summary/45337
Is my drafting in our mock draft looking good? I traded up to get Jackson, while in real life Atlanta trades down to get Young. "Jackson, the fourth pick in the NBA draft, outshined No. 5 overall pick Young in their first NBA action. The 6-foot-10 Jackson had 29 points and shot 8 of 13 from 3-point range to help the Memphis Grizzlies beat Young's Atlanta Hawks 103-88 on Monday night in Salt Lake City."
