There's just no talent here. Deshaun Thomas is a piece for the D-League and he's played respectably, but there's no real skill here. That's how you have 2 assists in a half.

its not like we're getting embarrassed by a summer league team with a lot of NBA talent and some high profile lottery picks. I guess this is what happens when you give away all your draft picks and hold press conferences in the middle of the draft.

Vince Carter is way too low key and monotone to be an announcer.

We might as well had sent MKG to summer league. Dude has barely completed a full season TOTAL. At least PJ added fun to the summer league especially year 1 he was here. Our team blows.

Why are we still trying to make Harrison a PG again?

That team today was trash. DeShaun Thomas (he played well for Barcelona last year) was the only redeeming player. York and Paul might be okay, not sure about Toby. Dude has some slow feet.

I've seen about enough of Harrison. I'm not really interesting in keeping him on the books.

So far it seems like only the Clippers have played their rookies (Johnson and Stone).

I don't get it.

Apparently Brice Johnson got benched.

Strange.

This is just brice having to lower his talents to fit into the NBA. When TAR HEELS go to the NBA they have to lower their skill level because being a TAR HEEL is the ULTIMATE level of basketball in the universe

With so few rookies playing so far I am starting to wonder if some of them are going to be moving on the 7th. Maybe it is just teams keeping them healthy in case they need to trade around to free some space up.

Orlando is like the D-league of summer leagues.
