Unfortunately for haterz Morey cooking so strong that even if Knecht looks like the second coming of Jerry West it's not gonna matter!

I'll never completely get over the fact that DK was sitting there and Morey passed on him.

It will always matter to me, but it's hard to find any other fault with this off season.

Prediction, those Dalton Knechters are gonna be real quiet after today's performance. :lol:

If you looked away while reaching for your drink you probably missed all of his and Nepo-LBJ's highlights.

My annual memo: only celebrate the great things prospects do and ignore the bad. Almost always the case… except when it’s Jaden Springer. Then you can believe he’ll never figure out how to shoot or be good on offense.

That Miami Heat team reminded me of prime Process Summer League Teams. No true PG to run things so entire team is disjointed, no one can create, no easy shots and team shooting percentage ends up being abysmal.

Ware did not impress me, he's long, will probably avg good block numbers, but that's about it. He's 2 or 3 years away from being a serious contributor (needs to hit the weight room, first and foremost).

The two biggest things I'm looking forward to watching are how Edey performs defensively against NBA-style play and whether Jared McCain will struggle against NBA-caliber length.

I'll be interested to see if McCain has any playmaking ability. I think it's there and just wasn't utilized at Duke.
