Klintman is better than Holland so far in games,at least we hit on one of the 2 picks.

I wish we would have keeped Bruce Brown .

Nov 16, 2020 — The Detroit Pistons agreed to trade Bruce Brown to the Brooklyn Nets for Dzanan Musa and a 2021 second-round draft pick

This was one of the worst trades by Weaver.

Bruce wasn’t moving the needle necessarily. Still hate giving up assets for nothing, but a non-shooting ball handler was not exactly the pistons problem

Its summer league, and Holland is an infant.

With that said, he has looked erratic to say the least.

I feel like Holland will show out today. This might be a freezing cold take in a few hours though :lol:.

Sasser not making the pass for an easy dunk is frustrating. He hasn’t shown growth this summer league. He almost looks like he thinks he’s too cool and good for this.

As I've sat, watching Holland play since summer league started, I've been struggling trying to figure out who he reminds me of, then it hit me.

Julius Randle. He is a chaotic player. Herky Jerky movements. Semi-sloppy dribble. Drives into a crowd putting a shot up.

Chaos. That has always described Randle to me, and thats exactly how I see Holland.

Sasser has had a sassy attitude today. Throws a 20ft lob and then looks frustrated with teammate

Sasser looks like he’d rather be doing anything besides playing in this game.

Klintman looks good though. I think he’s dribbling too much, but besides that he could contribute rather quickly.

I don't want to read too much into summer league, but sasser is really not doing anything to help himself so far. He's really struggled throughout

If Holland reminds me of anyone, it's KCP

Sasser knows he's struggling and it's slipping away. I think it's more the pressure getting to him than him thinking he's to good or something. I don't wanna attribute a negative intention here; the guy just having a hard time.

I think the issue with Sasser is that he's been asked to play a role (facilitator) that he's not very good at and he's struggling. But he knows he could excel in this environment if he was playing to his strengths.

Holland has looked much more controlled this game which is good to see. And Klintman continues to show his passing game.

I changed my mind. Sasser is an all star
