Booker is gonna play the first game, without restrictions, but after that game he probably doesn't play anymore with the Summer Suns.

We are going to destroy the Blazers on Saturday!

Yeah, I just checked and couldn't find it either. That blows. Guess I will have to try and find it elsewhere on firstrow or something. I honestly don't know why nbatv, or espn even don't have better deals just to purchase those channels and watch them directly on your computer or through roku or something. And NFL Sunday Ticket has it, but it's a rip off.


Sling isn't that bad of a deal. Between that and league pass one should be able to get everything. However, they figured out they could put games on NBATV which isn't an option for legal (and far superior quality) streaming. Last year, NBATV took so many games from my league pass subscription in which they were originally scheduled to be broadcast.

I wish cable/dish companies would just die or adapt already. They still want to force the old model of shoving 85% of the channels we don't want down our throat.


Isn't ESPN still like $20 a month through sling? I don't even have cable or satellite anymore. Luckily someone gave me their log in information so I can do Watch ESPN through my roku.


Yeah, $20 a month, but better than $50.

By the way, ESPN3 is showing all the summer league games and has them archived. Watch ESPN app on Roku has the same options as ESPN Go so you don't necessarily have to watch on a computer screen.

I suppose you get ESPN? If so, if you don't have a roku, go to the espn website on your computer, go to Watch ESPN, and then it will ask for your cable or dish, so you pick that, and sign into your account with your cable/dish provider. If you don't have an online account with that provider, set one up. That way you can watch on your computer (or with HDMI to tv, on tv) or on roku, firestick, etc.

I have no idea if you're correct but I'm curious, what's fueling this confidence? We have some very exciting prospects but they're just that, prospects. But here's hoping you're right.

If anyone cares to know how other young guys have fared...

Payne with impressive game....19/6/3/3 steals, 2 3s http://www.nba.com/games/20160706/INDOKC/gameinfo.html

Who is D. Adams for Dallas? 19/6/3 steals, 4 3s Vander Blue good too. Whoever Tobey is for Charlotte nice, 16/14,/ 3 blocks, 2 steals, and Gabe York with a good game. http://www.nba.com/games/20160706/DALCHA/gameinfo.html?ls=iref:nba:scoreboard

I knew Ron Baker was underrated..22/8/5 assists/5 steals/4 3s for NY and their Devin Booker pretty good too and a bunch of good guys for Orlando http://www.nba.com/games/20160706/ORWNYK/gameinfo.html?ls=iref:nba:scoreboard

Also, Justin Richardson good for Miami..some Simmons guy with SA with 35 and 7, and Kyle Anderson with 23,8,3,3 and 3, Trey Lyles with 26 and 11, Jaylen Brown with 17 free throws on 7 shots, Ben Simmons just 10/5/5 on 2 for 9 shooting, Kyle Anderson with 25, 7, 3 and 4 in another game and Lyles with 13 and 12, Gabe York with 18 in another game, Cameron Payne with 25, and then 16, 7 and 4 in a 3rd game, Bryce Johnson with 23 and 6, McGary with 18 and 9

Can't wait until we can talk about some of our guys like this.

Nice to see Gabe doing good things in Summer League. Two Wildcats are leading in the assist category (Nick Johnson got 6.7 a game in Orlando and TJ McConnell got 7 a game in Utah)
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

^Jonathan Simmons is a beast with SA. He had quite a few good games last season with em. Spurs are always good finding those hidden gems though. However, he is 26...

Five NBA Las Vegas Summer League Players to Watch by Tjarks:
Dragan Bender, Phoenix Suns

Compared to Maker and Papagiannis, Bender is a pretty well-known product, despite how he was often portrayed coming into the draft. He has been on NBA radars for years, and he played at the highest international and club levels in Europe. Now that we’ll be able to watch him up close and personal, it’ll be interesting to see how he fares playing off the ball with the Kentucky backcourt of Tyler Ulis and Devin Booker likely dominating the action for the Suns’ summer league team. The crown jewel of the Suns’ Vegas adventure, though, is the chance to see the team’s front line of the future, in Bender and Marquese Chriss, together on the court for the first time. There should be minutes available for Bender coming off the bench as a rookie in Phoenix, so developing a rapport with Ulis will be essential.

Tyler Ulis, Phoenix Suns

As one of the smallest players in Vegas, Ulis doesn’t really fit the profile of a Kentucky point guard — certainly not the one shared by his future teammates in Phoenix, Eric Bledsoe and Brandon Knight. No one has ever questioned Ulis’s skill set or toughness, but it’s fair to wonder just how much of that he can translate to the pro game at 5-foot-9 and 150 pounds. Summer league isn’t the NBA, but it isn’t the SEC either, where he was the Defensive Player of the Year as a sophomore. In the past, the summertime struggles of undersized guards like Shane Larkin and Trey Burke in Vegas and Orlando wound up being early warning signs for problems they would face in the NBA. Ulis can’t quiet all the doubters with a strong showing, but he has a chance to put a few to bed.

I think a lot of fans are setting themselves up for disappointment. He showed a lot of promise but he's still just a baby in basketball terms. He may become the next super shooting guard but he's a long way from that right now.

I didn't say he will dominate the 2016-17 season, Booker is just too much for SL.

I think our Summer League roster (with Booker) is way better than the Blazers roster.

Watson has said today that Booker probably is gonna play only two games in the entire Summer League, so I expect a big effort and passion in Booker's play on those two games.

I can watch SLC leagues on League Pass just fine.

Not sure if it's because of the package I subscribed to or if it's because I had international subscription (we don't have the ESPN streams available in Brazil)
