Chris Singleton looks like Reggie Evans.


My 13-yr old son just said that.

It's not a good look for him and I don't think he's helped his career gaining that much mass.

Seriously, teams aren't supposed to be playing this much defense in summer league. Open this sh-t up!

Kinda hard to do that with our pg play. :(

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

I know, it's pitiful. But at least try and push it off the glass.

I do like the way Porter and Rice rebound from the wing spots.

This is the most talent the Wizards have had since the 70s -- They didn't even have this much talent in the Webber years around 1995-1997. C Webb was an absolute stud but if you look at Wall/Beal and add how good both perimeter rookies look this game already, and put them with vets like Nene and Okafor; the Wizards are talented.

Defense, offense, veteran depth at each position, and many outside shooters. I like what OPJ and GRJr add, especially if Vesely can suddenly no longer be a stiff.

Top-to-bottom, the Wizards appear to be much improved.

Lol at nbatv's proposed 8 man rotation. Nene and Okafor are gonna play 48 minutes, or what?

Also, should I be surprised about Reggie and Kerr only evaluating the wizards on offense and totally neglecting the other side of the court?

Welcome aboard, FreckleFace!

How can I not be a fan of Rex Chapman?

I'm old enough to remember when Rex Chapman was criticized from some at UK for having a black GF. Rex was a real decent player IMO.

BEFORE ANYONE ELSE ASKS...

I was a fan of Brent Price, Scott Skiles, Tom Gugliotta, Don Maclean ... :lol:

Hassel is terrible.

I like Jan's competitiveness so far

Beal and Wall look like they have a very good rapport.

Dat always says summer league doesn't show what players CAN do, but what they CAN'T do. Can't dribble by defenders is a huge concern I had with Porter. Hopefully it's first game jitters. Bazemore looking better than Porter.

John was great.

He said about Beal that he knew him since Bradley was 16, and he watched him in the SEC. Said he was hoping Beal was on the board at #3. Of people who thought Bradley couldn't create his own shot in the NBA, Wall said he thought he would be able to. John said he was glad Bradley Beal let the game come to him and found his shot before he got back. Didn't want people to say HE made Beal. Beal did that himself.

At the end of his interview, Reggie asked John who he would pass to if he was on the break and had Kerr open to the right and himself open to his left. John paused and answered he'd pass to Reggie. Miller laughed. But then John said MJ had the faith to pass to Kerr and he hit big shots ... even if he just played 2 minutes. Kerr didn't take offense at all and said John must have been watching the games.
