Heat may need to narrow down his responsibilities. Focus on being big and work on his fundamental all summer. Don't try to be Kevin Durant out there

Yeah IDK if that's his game though... I've heard a lot of Lively comparisons but he seems like a totally different type of player than Lively.


Lively stayed within himself and is a fundamentally sound player. Heat coaching staff keep referring Ware as a 3D player. So I guess they have different plans for him

Yeah agreed, Lively seems like a hustle guy that's there to rebound, play defense, and catch lobs... kinda in the Tyson Chandler mold. Idk if his skill level is as high as Ware and I don't think Ware's motor is as high as Lively's, which is what I meant by being a totally different type of player. While it would be nice to have a guy do what Lively does, I'd rather the coaches cater to what Ware does well versus trying to make him into something that he's not.

Lmfao I forgot that was him. What do you think was more embarrassing - the Jalen Green vid leak or having this day trader put him on a poster?

Pat Spencer needs to go to Europe to make some money he's way too good for these Summer League/GLeague bums the difference in understanding of the game/IQ was shocking to see.

Ware played like a real crap Wemby which is not a bad thing

The final numbers for Victor Wembanyama in his Summer League debut: nine points on 2-for-13 shooting, eight rebounds, five blocked shots, three assists.


Just for fun.

We'll be watching Game 2 today vs. the Kings on Playback (https://www.playback.tv/5rsn)

Ware looked good defensively - would like to see more on offense.
Pelle was very good defensively and impressed by his full court pressure
Like the minutes with Stevens/Pullin running the offense - everything seemed to flow better with "true point guards" on the floor
Man Man looks like he might be Gone Gone - especially if he's going to be expected to run offense and not just be a scorer, and/or play defense.
Swider is Swider. Meh.

If nothing else, it’ll be an interesting season observing fans react to the team incorporating a Whiteside clone into their schemes.


Whiteside clone?


Man, I thought the same watching him run back to defense and slower than the GS Center. :D

Someone needs to have a talk with him about effort. I know it is game one, but I felt that he has more talent than effort. Clearly reminded of Whiteside.
