    Yikes, this is somehow worse than the normal Summer League ratball fest.

    One thing I think you need in summer league are point guards that can take care of the ball.

    Shooting guards masquerading as point guards waste entire games for all the other prospects.

    I will say, irrespective of the actual game play level: it's SO FUCKING NICE to have a play by play guy doing some play by play. Telling us which players are, like, doing what.

    I complained about Jones and sort of second-guessed myself until I just noticed that this PBP guy wasn't irritating me in spite of how ugly the game has been :)

    Walker has good shot and so far doing a good job.

    It's cool to have the head of officiating talk to us about what they're looking at.

    You would think he could at least play good defense, but he hasn't .

    To be fair, this is what happens when we trade our first rounders every year. As a quick reminder (including to myself... I think I've sort of blocked it out):

    upload_2022-7-11_20-43-59.png

    Not that we'd still have anyone from 2014's draft participating this year, but we didn't have a pick that year, either. By the time you zap Stewart, it's crazy that we got a whole lot of nothing from 2021, 2020, 2016, and 2014. Well... Elleby from 2020, but he was clearly nothing from day one, unfortunately.

    The drafts from the last three years should be the foundation for this team, and with Sharpe out, it's just Walker and a bunch of ... guys.

    I wish these guards actually run a offense I don't how many times Walker is wide open and they either force by pass or shot.

    And we traded those 1sts for fucking role players!!!!! Small markets should never do that. We still have one outstanding first gone for a freaking role player too.

    Imagine Walker playing with Dame or Simons. He would see all wide open look from the corner

    First brown did not box out secured rebound and then he fouls. He as a long ways to go before he is a NBA player.
