Great job Tatum
Inbetween job Semi, Zizic
Horrible job Brown

Others looked potentially D-league worthy but don't particularly excite me from this team.

None of our players looked as good as Rozier did for us last year. But then again Dunn looked like an MVP player in the summer league last season so *shrug*

...........what the hell are you talking about?


Our players performance in summer league this year.

And if you don't recall what Rozier and Dunn did last year... that's on you. Rozier put on a better performance than any of our players this year.

He dropped 20 ppg 5rpg 3.5 aspg 1.5 steals on 53% shooting over Utah and LV. Hit his own game winning 3 pointer, multiple highlight plays, ect.

Actually played all the games. Looked dominate, what you would expect from a second year player with promise.


Your argument is valid but your reasoning is not consistent. Fact being that the quality of players in this summer league is vastly superior to last year (or any year there's been a summer league).

Very impressive, considering he missed almost half the games. There was a lot of buzz about how polished Tatum looks in the media. Pretty much every program about summer league on tv/radio/podcast/print was effusive with praise for Tatum.

Was super impressed with Jayson. The fact he got double teamed says enough. Ive never seen teams doubleteam in Summer league. It basically says they cant stop him 1 on 1'.
Good assessment:
