Because loyalty to 1 school > meritocracy.

Apparently he already replaced Cole and Fultz because of “poise” lol. I like him but the comments are just funny.

LOL a rookie PG? I mean.. in the history of basketball, PGs takes the most time to develop and for a young team wanting to make the POs, we just throw him to the fire?

It’s making the game much harder to watch… but maybe Kai is just that bad.

It's part of MICH recruitment. Some schools might boast of a bigger NIL contract while others can give you hookers and coke, MICH promises the scrubs a NBA experience.

I like to give myself license to change opinions play-by-play and swing on a spectrum from GOAT to bust in Game Threads.

Yeah, Black will definitely have rookie growth ahead of him. But it will be hard for Fultz and Cole to keep him out of minutes if he can play at this level in regular season.

Yeah.. is it time to turn off this ish? I dunno who are on the floor right now.

Yeah this summer league second unit of ours is a poopoo platter.

I know Caleb is in but this second unit is hard to watch.why couldn’t we put Kai in the game?

Black has looked great defensively.

Ivey has been pretty bad considering how much he gets to handle the ball.

Lottery pick on the floor, scrubs hog the ball

We need a point guard on the floor. This is a mess.

What level? He’s not doing anything that special. The best players on the floor for the Magic have easily been Harris and Houstan who won’t play at all in the regular season.

Great dig by Jett to cause the turnover

Post #195 » by **SOUL** » Sat Jul 8, 2023 10:51 pm

Jett gotta finish that.. nice move tho

I wish we would actually run some action for Jett.

Oh sheet Cole is gonna be interviewed on the broadcast, I guess there's a reason to keep watching.

Because he fits the mold of players we typically go after AND he’s more talented than most guys on the roster? It’s SL, you’re filling out a roster.

Our summer league team is built for summer league.
