It's actually kind of amazing that they're only down 5 considering they're shooting 32% to the Nuggets 50%, and have shot 13 fewer free throws.

People like his personality and leadership skills.

They’re also tricked by his intensity on defence thinking it actually makes him an effective defender. He’s not.

I can’t complain cause he’s a late 2nd rounder but he’s not a real NBA player to me. We need a real back up PG in the near future.

Summer League is basically used to see what these players will work on for the next couple of months before training camp. These guys will look better playing with better players.

This team needs some serious focus on offense lol

I can't be the only that enjoys this game.

Also, Remember Gradey was his rookie year. When he was assigned to the 905, he did the same things at the same at a slightly elevated level.

So when he rejoined the team, it's only down scaling from what he was doing.

Ja'Kobe is having that kind of summer league, and he's getting adjusted to the weight.

People are really impatient.

He can run the offence, but when your guards are rooks and your big is castleton, it’s gotta be a problem. He played well with Aj, and that’s g league player.

Shead needs to move and pass the ball more, same with Chucky. They're struggling with Denver's larger defenders and therefore have been very ineffective in the half court. They're unable to successfully attack the basket, while Chucky specifically struggles with getting into the paint. Their iso tunnel vision needs to cease and they need to get their teammates involved.

We should be running many more plays for Lawson and Battle. We also need far more ball movement in the half court.

I still can’t tell if you’re a troll trying to instigate negative posts about players by being ridiculously positive about them (Barnes thread) or if you’re Bobby Webster and truly believe everything you say

Did this guy Jeremiah Fears say he can see himself being top 2 point guard of all time?

This kid hasn't played a minute of NBA ball and he will be an all-timer. CRAZY!!!

Right where we want them.
Seconds half, they turn it up.

Which team really feels more demoralized at this point.

Its really gonna suck if us dropping in the draft is what led us to missing out on a potential star even at 7.

Shead shouldn't be on the main roster put him in the g league. Have Quick, Barnes and JaKobe handle the ball. Don't need to sign a pg

I feel like you love nitpicking everything I say specifically without taking into account the legitimate points I’m making

Do me favour and make sure you actually remember the details of my takes in a few years when they come to fruition so you can actually give me credit instead when I bring them back up instead of saying “hindsight is 20/20 there’s no way you can ever predict anything of course it’s easy to say now.”

Highlight of the night was Darko talking about all the cigarette smoke in Las Vegas and commentator awkwardly trying to ignore the comment

CMB isn't getting featured. One of the bad parts about having a lot of 2nd year and G-Leaguers on the team.

I forgot about that player the Raptors drafted, 5'11 and said he was going to be better than Vince or something
