You can definitely see CMB's potential to be a huge impact defender/disruptor in the vein of say Amen or Draymond.

As long as he's involved in lineups that contain some better shooters or scorers like BI, IQ, RJ, Gradey etc, it's quite damn easy to see how he can really help win games.

A really different experience for me watching the Raps summer league team.

I am familiar with all the players this year. I didn't say "who?" about any of the Raptors' players.

I knew enough to groan whenever Castleton entered the game. What happened to Battle? Is he hurt?

Fact is if we played defense like this in regular season, our whole team would foul out, with the superstar calls. Can get away with this kind of over aggressive defense, and having 10 fouls per player.

Loved what I saw.

His offensive game will come around. Kid is special.

I know what I said earlier in this thread but after that second half I’m a CMB believer. He just looks like he’s gonna be good. Just gets it. Insane reaction time and processing speed.


Yeah he already plays at an NBA speed

Same. Great game tape to send to Alvin, thoroughly enjoyed listening to Tom.

Using "feeding frenzy" at the end as a style definition for our defence will stick with me. Hope we can live up to that the whole season.

Probably not all fouls that were called at SL would be called during actual NBA games IMO

Lawson is an NBA player really hope he can stick around. We have a lot of guards though.

That's a healthy statline for CMB and I expect him to be like that. Thinking of Ed Davis' time with the Raptors, expect he will be a defensive beast and impact the game in other ways.

Dare the refs to call a foul every play, it’s literally how OKC just won a championship
