Kai needs to figure out to keep the ball high. He gets stripped very easily.

Hornets have more turnovers than there have been minutes in the game so far.

The team having no PG is a big issue. No idea why we didn't either draft one or get an unsigned one.

We have triple as many TO's as points.

We even have more TO's than points Toronto has.

coaching the summer league team is generally a spotlight for younger coaches, and Dutch Gaitley's team has been jumped on early in every game, has barely held a single lead through 3+ games, has had no answers for basic halfcourt offense issues (why not run Bouknight off some screens against Davion Mitchell the other day? like a couple times maybe?), and the intensity of individual players has varied substantially in the course of a single game.

We aren't going to score 10 points in this quarter.

This has to be our worst SL team ever, right?

Feels like they're "resting" Carton and Kulboka too...they'd help right about now.
