Whenever Black shuts down an opponent defensively we should say they’ve “been Black-listed”.

It's amazing how well even marginal 2nd year NBA guys play in SL against rookies... vets would be dropping 40-50 with ease. I'm still dunking on eyriq's 5v5 theory!! :lol:

Nah I'm even talking about like Brandon Williams type players who were like 12th-15th men on Portland lol.

Jalen Williams went off the 1st game and then stopped playing

I feel like one thing you can look for in summer league is if a player looks like they’re playing pretty effortlessly against the competition, then there’s a good chance they can hold their own in the league. Paolo and Keegan were doing that last summer. Dyson looks like he’s walking through the game, he’s so in control.

Pelicans have sooo much talent. Zion is letting them down by not being in shape to last a whole season.

I think he'll be a good role player in a few years. We could already have a better version of him in Black.

I’m more interested in Scoot/Sharpe vs Amen and Whitmore than I am Charlotte/San Antonio tonight. Can’t wait to see these guys play.

7 mins into summer league and Im all in on Scoot.

Charlotte probably blew it taking Miller over Scoot.

Didn't we just talk about SL overreactions :lol:

(not in terms of liking guys, I mean in Miller being a bust, etc)

Good first stint for Amen.

Henderson putting a clinic,showing how good,in control and ready he already is.

Amen is green,showing some impressive flashes but also that he is not ready,especially on defense.

Man, love what I am seeing form Scoot, Amen, and Witmore.

Post #219 » by **Knightro** » Fri Jul 7, 2023 11:55 pm

I think Scoot has a great chance to win rookie of the year.
