Hahaha its already starting. The next 3 and D master has arrived.

Is AJ Green expendable or do we just run them both out and have something basically indistinguishable from Steph and Klay?

Glad to see the backlash engine turning over after a compliment based on one summer league game.

With how Bogi looked in the that nike youth game and how he played in europe last season, I definitely expected him to look more comfortable. Granted I was kind of half watching, but outside of the move to get to the line, he looked very uncomfortable.

Massively premature. I like Proctor too, but he has a limited ceiling. No one would have picked Proctor a year ago when he was Bogi's age.

Guys who can shoot and are tough and just know how to play can always help a team.

Scouts and execs still fall in love with size and athleticism so these guys keep falling through the cracks.

I don't know if Ryan belongs in that group yet but I'm not going to dismiss him out of hand because of age and lack of draft pedigree. We don't need to unearth the next superstar. Anyone who can play off Giannis' strengths and be a net positive on the court will do.

I'm not saying we need to sign the guy, I'm just saying he played very well on both ends and fits the new format of our team. If he plays like this in every game I'd question why we even have SL if we don't bring him to camp.

BTW, you gotta be happy for Daron Holmes. Was still able to be an effective player in a # of areas, after having the beginning of his career wiped out by a torn achilles. If he's not a useful NBA player, many will ignore he never had a real chance.

It means as much as any other individual SL game, but there's no doubt Ryan did a lot of good things and earned more time at least.

Agree. You could see him become more comfortable as the game progressed last night. I still think he's going to be a player, in spite of the awful start to his career.

Ajax- he was fine. Nothing special but he isnt built for a SL setting so I dont read too much into it


Agree, but wish that in SL we could see evidence that he's working on his offensive bag and improving as a threat on that end.

Really liked that Ryan guy. Fantastic passing off his fakes, great intensity. Livingston looks worth a proper shot.
