Get Ware and his lack of motor out of my sight, IMMEDIATELY! I’m DISGUSTED in his effort in these summer games!!

Nah KJ is ice cold, he sat out too long and we went away from him. I'm not worried about Ware. I'm waiting for preseason for that.

no reason to lose that game, terrible coaching. Jak looked good, Ware started out good, Goldin was attacking, Cook was cooking, Pelle was drawing fouls like Picasso and we still lost unbelievable.

Knueppel knows how to play basketball something. Hornets need to get rid of Ball

Little concerned with Pelle’s 3 ball. Shoots it real flat from deep. He’a got good swing man skill set but that 3 ball has to drop at 6’5 210.

I don't care much in seeing Ware dominate. I just want him to come out healthy. This summer squad passing and ball handling is weak. Just need to see Larsson shot and Jakučionis improvements

The lack of motor we’re seeing from Ware has got to be turning you off. I have high hopes for him, he needs to act like he cares, he’s out there acting like he’s too cool for school. You can’t teach motor Twix and his seems to be missing.

Those scrubs he playing against are dangerous. They are constantly running under his legs. He just needs to be safe. Dominating those scrubs who are playing for their livelihood means nothing.

Maluach is better than I thought. Johnson is as good as I thought

Caleb Love for the Blazers SL team looked like a professional NBA player

If Love has worked on making his jumper consistent he has starting talent

He has a very good chance to become a solid starting PG IMO.

Won't be elite in any one skill, but Very solid across the board.

He doesn't have great burst but he can compensate with a good handle, good size and good strength.

His defense is more decent then I expected. He competes and he's strong for a 19 YO PG.

I can tell he has high Bb IQ and he's coachable, with a winning type character.

The key factor is to become a deadly shooter, it will open up his passing, drives and rest of his game. His FT% for his age is elite, and that's historically a good indication that he'll be an above average shooter at least. If he can become a great one, I can see him becoming a prime Klye Lowery or a prime Brogdon type PG - just a smart winner type that helps you in every aspect without wowing you.

I said during the draft, a few years from now we are going to do a redraft and maluah will be one of 5 best players of this draft..

Side, i dont think cooper flagg will be top 5 in a redraft.. vj will likely be the best player of this draft class

If Cooper isn't in the top5 then it will likely be a generational draft (on par with 2009), because Flagg's floor is very high. There is a 0% chance he'll be complete bust. At worst a fringe all-star. He's already so good at so many areas of the game... So there would have to be at least 5 All-Stars in this draft for your prediction to come true. Personally, I don't think that's very likely.

Jakucionis is a talented player and a smart player.
He has the size for his position too.
He lacks vertical leap and this is his main disadvantage.

I think he is a better player from Davion Mitchel.

Ware is a good role player.
He plays his role very well.
Blocks shots, has good enough speed for defense, dunking lobs and score some shots without moving with the ball.
But this is it.

Personally I dont expect a lot more things from a big.
Basketball is a game for the pgs and the wings.
The tall guys have to be supportive to the creative players
