If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

Are we sure Jimmy Butler doesn’t have a younger brother?

Ace looks comfortable, and yet he’s a -11 in a game his team is winning by 4. This is a meaningless single SL game, but it does suggest he has trouble playing winning team basketball. He’s just out there Michael Beasley-ing it up, as usual.

As for Edgecombe, Russell Westbrook’s team should be investigating to see if he had some DNA stolen and someone cloned him. Just a relentless, if inefficient, player, as expected.

So Clayton Jr just runs up and down the court and does nothing? It's summer league man let it go a little bit

Why is he letting this Collier bum control the ball so damn much?

Flipowski looks great. So smooth a shot for a big man. Surely they can't keep Kessler around for much longer. Flip has a much better upside and they can keep Nurkic as a backup/insurance policy

Bona is a beast
VJ looks legit
Ace looks good but his team shot him outa the game
Clayton jr is solid
Jaylen Williams bro seems like a bust… may be too early to say
Broome might be good value… looks like a player

Got to love the RealGM Hot Takes after one Summer League game that is entirely meaningless and by that I meant those writing off Ace Bailey as a bum/bust already.

Feels like he has a type of personality that unfortunately will result in a lot of haters wanting him to fail.

Can't wait for him to prove them all wrong

Anyhow both Sixers and Jazz fans can take a lot of positives about their kids from this game. I enjoy seeing the next gen of players start their NBA journey. Been a decent game to watch.

I like Edgecombe and Broome for where we got them. I think Edgecombe fits well functionally and Broome fits well positionally. I was a little so-so about Edgecombe as our pick, but every time I hear him speak or now watch him play - he has been making me eat crow.
