It's Summer League and Norm dominating is a distant memory.

definitely better off letting barnes playmake. that's the whole point of drafting him. not a surprise he's looked more engaged compared to wasting him off-ball.

It’s time to go all 6-9
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Looked our best with Barnes initiating. Would be nice to see him make some passing reads as he gets in the paint in his next stretch.

Didnt he just play the whole 3rd qtr


yeah so don't jump all over unnecessarily and waste energy if you play the whole quarter. He can be be smarter about it.

Scottie holds the ball like OG does when they drive in to the rim or thru contact, It makes me sick lol.

How do you hold the ball like a child when you have massive hands and strength ??

Hate to say it but I'm getting FVV tendencies from Flynn

The irrational hate for Fred lol,ignorance.

This is who Flynn is, this was how he played last year. Their games aren’t even alike.

He's a 1, 3, or 4. He's nowhere near big enough to play the 5.

My biggest issue with his play tonight. It's like he's calling for a screen to score for himself every time.
