Summer League Discussion- Game 2 v. Hawks

[mkegb]

SL game down to the wire and who misses the Bucks shots to tie or take the lead? Sterling and Wilson. Truth.

I have no issues including them in trades...never have been a fan of either of them...too inconsistent and neither one is a good shooter...

Absolutely. Put another way: they both had their improbable runs BUT, really, they both pretty much stink in terms of NBA talent.

I don’t care if it’s summer league, they both should be able to play above the majority of these guys and they can’t...22% and 12% shooting...embarrassing for them

[mkegb]

I'm very curious why this organization felt it was a good idea to run Wilson and Brown out there in Summer League. Neither guy looks interested in this. What a waste of time.

Well they both obviously need the practice because they can’t hit crap...Bryant is looking like the guy who has been playing in the NBA...not these two jokers

Sterling has been ok on D, just doesn't appear to have made any strides physically or as a ball handler.
Given its been like 6 weeks since we've seen him, not that surprising. Lots of offseason to go.

Summer league hot takes are the best.

Have you seen Colson’s bod? There is work to be done in that timeframe. Sterling is what he is by now. Never been a ballhandler. Never had any shiftiness. He gets by on grit, hitting open shots, playing defense, and not **** up. Problem is, when he dribbles, he usually **** up.

Watching entire SL games and having an actual opinion aint easy.

Fair enough lol. I really like Tucker. I think it's obvious he's adjusting to the higher competition level, but he still flashes consistently and his jumper is pure. Felt like he was playing within the team concept while other guys were trying to get theirs.

Probably the best basketball in summer league I’ve seen in years. Tons of players out there

Is Beno Udrih one of the Bucks summer league coaches or am I seeing things?

It is in fact the Slovene. Likely due to his relationship with Bud from San Antonio. Wouldn’t have happened under Hammond’s watch. Pretty sure Horst was apart of the organization when Beno lobbed grenades at the Bucks after they mercifully traded him to Orlando. Udrih did not enjoy his Scott Skiles/Jennings/Monta Ellis Milwaukee experience.

Hard to imagine why he didn't enjoy the experience

It was tough for fans, can't imagine living it everyday.

I wonder if he is in contention to replace Taylor Jenkin's spot as Assistant Coach.

I think the Bonz looks much improved physically. If only he were two-to-three inches taller.

Everyone else is butt.

Sterling has looked bad every time I've seen him during these three games.

He is a hustle player who forgets he needs to hustle sometimes.

Bonzie has the oddest NBA body to me. Looks super top-heavy w/ some pudg and then chicken legs (at least proportionally) trying to support it all. But then his movements can be so fluid.

He also kind of has a hump by his neck/upper back like Quasimodo.

I'm not buying the 'not interested' angle for DJ and Sterling. Both have a huge opportunity to increase their role on the team. Both had veterans brought in to compete for their playing time in Robin and Wes. Every time they step on the floor is a chance to prove they are ready for an expanded role. Both also must know next year has huge future contract implications for them. If they aren't motivated, I'm not sure if they'll ever be. The fact that both have stunk it up thus far is hugely disappointing. I get that they're limited players but c'mon, man.

[Buck You]

Was this as good as the first summer league game vs the hawks at the end of the regular season?

Taco Fall might have a niche place in the nba. He really alters what an opposing teams offense can do in the half court. His offense is pretty sucky, he is kind of slow and will likely get stripped often, but if you need a defensive stretch to slow the other team down or a late game defensive stop, he might actually have value. That sounds crazy to say with the plotting big becoming extinct. His size on his own is hard to overcome. He makes 6'10" guys look small. He pretty much takes away the quick guards driving to the rim for layups. They more times than not have to kick it back out, Instead of taking a shot. If they are ballet enough to take it, they end up taking poor shots or getting blocked.
