Bey will be good in the SIM

Killian will be borderline unplayable in the SIM next year off his last season.

That is probably a good take. Its why I still chased Moody and Mann in the draft.

I really was excited to see both. Hopefully Giddey was just held out the rest of the game as a precaution and will be good to go next game. Hopefully Bones gets cleared soon too!

Context out somewhere getting drunk off the Jalen Green game. Guy is special man. Effortless.

To think, you made me think we had a deal for him.

Killian put up some numbers but he has to get that shot falling. Tre had a brutal 1st game but the young man is not shy. He kept on shooting. Bey was my one bright spot with 14/12 on 46.2 FG% and 50.0 % from three.

I am hoping Moody keeps up his good play Monday night. Its a bummer about the NBA Pacers. I really want to see if Goga can average 3 blocks a game in summer league.

He definitely could use the reps but I wouldn’t be surprised if he sat a couple games. Depends how bad he rolled the ankle

Teams are a lot more risk averse these days when it comes to their high draft picks. Its not unusual at all for them to be held out of 2 or 3 games.

Liked the glimpses I saw from Greg brown for a late second rounder. His defense, athleticism and energy was on display. Didn’t see much shooting for the most part unless I missed it while switching games.

Josh Christopher I also scooped up second round at 36

Shoutout to taking Cade at #1. Passed on legit stars for a player that might be 5th best in the draft - maybe 6th if you wanna take Scottie over him (I wouldn't).

Meanwhile Jalen showing off why he's the best prospect.

We allowed to sign certain FAs now? Guys that are eligible currently of course?

Anybody on the free agent list that doesn't have an asterisk is fair game. Anybody on the draft-eligible list that went undrafted and still out there is fair game. Also, there may be some players who are not on either list but have an nba contract that would be available also.

I do like him, sadly the best I can offer is a slightly used Robin Lopez or Okafor in this scenario unless the wheels in your head start spinning. (AKA not sure if you have any trades waiting to be dropped)
