every coach has his favorite 3rd string veteran.

I'm all for keeping JL3 around as a vet presence, but if Dunn or Rubio goes down, I want Tyus stepping into that backup PG role. I know summer league is summer league, but it really looked like he can play.

I'd prefer signing Chalmers or Norris Cole if one of Rubio or Dunn get injured.

Read on Rubechat that Wigs and Bazz are out. Would like to see Lavine a lot of touches

About bloody time! Unbelievable that not one of the previous games has been available on league pass. FInally get a first look at the guys now, looking forward to it and hope the minutes of the actual rotation are bumped up a bit leading up to the actual regular season.

Wiggs out due to an allergic reaction and unsure why Bazzy is out.

Still shouldnt be a problem with the Grizzlies trotting out a Dleague wing line up.

Bazz's hairline is in the process of succeeding from the union.

Very good defense so far. Grizzlies arent great offensively but the guys look very active. Dieng has been very impressive so far.

Don't feel too bad for Conley, he signed the largest contract in NBA history in the off season.

Zach should drop 30 easily if given the minutes against the Grizz.
