Ulis is by far the most NBA ready out of all of our rookies.

Ulis looks so poised in his first summer league game. Very impressive.

That was like a 4 second .7 seconds

Bender should really make use of his handle and improve his off the dribble game/learn to change gears when driving. As a rook wouldn't expect him to be anywhere near as lethal as KP from beyond the arc comign off scrrens

Ulis will make it work, even with his size. He just... can play.

Its been 2 quarters you guys, let's give Bender a chance before we label him Rondo. He has missed 3FTs as well. Maybe nerves a little like Booker last year. He has a nice stroke and confidence. Once he learns to go left, he might be able to play the three. I don't want him to get too big to play the 5, then that makes him common.

Man. Bender needs like 1 year of NBA shooting and he is going to be contributing real quick on both ends. I think hes nervous and has ........holy **** someone is actually wearing a rex chapman jersey in the stands LOLllllllllllllll. Instructions from coaches to put shots up. I thought hed be a lot more passive so om actually happy hes shooting. Way more active than i ever saw from watching highlights. Loving ulis but i kinda figured hed be doing this. Chriss has been a pleasant suprise too

I'm really happy for what I see right now. I don't care shooting performances because even Booker is missing shots. Bender rebounds well, so fluid with the ball, confident, I like it, don't care silly fouls it is SL and 3 fouls per half is not bad at all. Chriss is also moves smoothly. Ulis is SUCH A STEAL.

What's everyone thoughts on the first half of SL game?
I didn't think Bender would be this good, aside from his missed shots he has surprised me in the way he moves, his confidence, and his energy level.
Chriss, I honestly thought he was gonna have some mental issues, so far he's looked to stay focus on both sides of the court, he needs to stay down on those pump fakes though. Nice highlight play from earlier, that was an elite spin move. Looked like Paul George on that move.
Ulis is small but he might be our future PG if he packs on some muscle. Needs to watch what Bledsoe eats and do what he's doing.
Alan Williams has a lot of limitations but he has a high basketball IQ IMO. Alec Brown, I thought he was cut already, he's making shots this year, last year not so much.

Like this team approach we got going. Bledsoe, Knight, Len, Dudley, & Watson are here.

Could they show this teenage girl commercial with the don't give up song more often? Don't think I've seen it enough yet.

Bender-moves extremely well, active, quick, good instincts, thicker than I was expecting. Once his three starts falling he will be a great player.

LMAO, I couldn't help but laugh watching Alan Williams there...

#15, he just doesn't give up

Yeah that sequence for Williams was NOT pretty...but good effort?

Post #297 » by **ATTL** » Sat Jul 9, 2016 9:03 pm

Allan Williams needs to go on a cut

Clear goaltending not called. Gotta love summer league.

Post #299 » by **ATTL** » Sat Jul 9, 2016 9:05 pm

Hey summer league refs, blocking a shot after hits the backboard is goaltending.

Really like what Earl Watson had to say. You guys have a good coach.
