As bad as this game has been AB and Jett are doing what is expected from them. If AB had a shot, he would have been the #2 pick. We just need to be patient with that aspect of his game. Nearly everything else is NBA-ready from AB.

Agreed. The whole point of summer league is to establish a baseline for the coaches to use to work. AB needs to be nonstop shooting from here until the season starts. Doesn’t need much help anywhere else.

Will just add Howard has more athleticism than I thought as well. He has a real shot to be something if he can continue to develop.

AB is guarding Mathurin

We lost this game in the first half. I like the fight in the second half but yeah, this SL team can't shoot. That's a problem.

He's done a fair job, I'm impressed with the rookie.

If Black isn’t running Point he’s almost invisible on offense.

WTF are we doing with running AB off-ball for most of this half??????????

I know some probably don't want to hear this but this SL team is resembling some of our regular season games. No rebounds, can't shoot, and the other team does whatever they want in the paint and the 3 point line.

Now imagine thinking he can play *with* Fultz.

Yeah but there is ZERO reason why he shouldn't be running point every minute he plays. That's like sticking Dwight Howard in the corner and wondering why he's invisible on offense.

Making our non shooting PG stand in the corner? Who else? Coach Cliff!

If Mathurin and Nembhard get injured in this game, it is Indy's fault. Why are they still out there?

His release point is all over the place. Gonna need a lot of work.

The strategy of bringing zero bigs to Vegas has certainly not paid dividends on the glass through two games :lol:
