The first 5 in that list is the probable starting lineup. Should be a fun team to watch.

Looking at the list of opponents, we won't get to see any of the higher level prospects unless its later in the tournament.

I don't think Croatia will even have any NBA players
We'll get to see Little against Portland
We'll see Goga against Indiana
We'll see Thybulle against Philly

None of those are blockbuster attractions.

SL is always a "blockbuster attraction?" It's a chance to see the rooks in an organized tournament before the long drought leading up to the preseason. Also leads to premature opinions. Lots of fun talk originates from SL.

No argument here.

I was just making mention that we won't be seeing our guys go up against the blue chip prospects like Zion, Morant, Barrett, etc.

So since trades can't be announced till the 6th of July, does that mean Bone and the euro dude are ineligible to play till that date?

I'll be in Vegas the 5-7th. I'll try to catch some summer league, but I got tickets to UFC 239

Looks like the team is having all the official press conferences and all the social media stuff so it must be official already

Ugh. this makes me sad. We had a trip scheduled to do the exact same thing July4th for 4nights but things fell apart about a month ago. Last year we went. Got a pic with Ed Stefanski lol at summer league and shook hands with Daniel Cormier at Chateau nightclub.
Enjoy Vegas buddy!

Cool meeting DC! We are going with a small crew, and one of them is Luke Rockhold's sister This is only the second time I've been to a UFC event, the first time was when Rockhold beat Weidman for the belt, and Connor knocked out Aldo in 13 seconds. Got to go to private party after and Luke brought his belt

Amazing!
Vegas is the best. The melting heat during the day doesn't faze me one bit
We did TMobile Hyde Lounge right in the arena. Pretty sick

No Bone because trade isn't official yet until the 6th for some reason or other. Probably the pick changed hands one time in a player trade before it got to us.

Matt Costello! Nice.


.

Imagine if Sekou looks like ****, just our luck
Joking aside though I’m excited to see if his defense is up to speed like scouts were impressed by

Bruce Brown at PG is gonna be an experience. Probably bad, maybe good, but certainly an experience.
