I'm normally always pro the young guys but deep inside me i wish we MCW/Drew Gooden'ed him aka trade him after/in his 1st year, when his value is kinda still high. Cant remember that i disliked a young player (not the person) that much from game 1.

At least, we didnt draft Bouknight. I would spam the spiderman meme every game :lol:

Cole thinks he is Westbrook, but instad of Westbrook's body, he is trapped in body of CJ Watson :lol:
His body simply does not allow him to do things he wants to do. Hence, even SL, he finds himself laying on the ground after almost every penetration at rim.

Suggs is just good. Him and Mobley were my favorite prospects anyway.

Timma :rofl:
That guy, in 2016 had few tattos, was very muscular , pale as ice and his hairline was normal.

It's 2021 he is covered in tattoos, lost most of muscles , tanned to the point where i couldn't figure is it him or some afroamerican player with painted hair, his hairline is Lebroning

Cole struggled again, but it's Summer League so whatever. It looks a bit like he thought he was going to dominate because it's just SL but didn't bank on coming up against guys fighting for contracts. Not discounting the fact that we looked better with him off the floor though.

Suggs had another good game. A couple ill-advised shots but usually only if there was nothing else going on offensively so can't blame him too much. He also would have had a double double if our other guys could hit their shots.

Franz had a much more composed game. Did a lot of good little things and played some good defense.

RJ looked a bit better but still out of control at points.

Summer league refs are azz. I know it should be expected, the NBA refs are bad and these guys aren't good enough to ref NBA games, but some of those calls would get laughed out of my local recreational league.

Lastly, credit to Nate Duncan, but Janis AnTimmaKounpo is excellent and should definitely stick :lol:

Is Cole the next Austin Rivers? Son of a good former NBA PG, who thinks he is better than actually he is?

Doc was actually starting caliber PG and very solid one.
Greg Anthony was career backup.
