Only real knock(s) I can say about Neismith is that he finds himself on his man’s hip a decent amount and can be beat off dribble. Also seems to get down on himself from what I saw last season but DAMN I LOVE HIM

At work, can’t watch. How does Bruno look?

Damn Nesmith looks very good. Bruno will easily make the team. Nothing really to complain about. But I must say, I wouldn’t want Bol Bol on this team.

Carsen should just enjoy the moment while it lasts. With Smart, Schroder, Madar and Pritchard, he may not see more than garbage minutes in the NBA this year.

That Langford slam came after two blocks called as fouls. He was straight pissed.

Very small sample, but he looks like he'd fit right in.

Why not? It's like having Tacko out there at double speed and with a shot.

Hot take number 9. Nesmith will look so good by all star break Wash calls Boston and asks for a Beal-Nesmith swap and Boston says NO!

I’m just not impressed. He’ll get wrecked on D by any decent center.

PP is too good for this competition. Send him home and give more on ball reps to Langford and Madar. Also trade Dunn and Edwards. Don’t move Bruno

Carsen should just enjoy the moment while it lasts. With Smart, Schroder, Madar and Pritchard, he may not see more than garbage minutes in the NBA this year.

Carsen's issue is he's a 5'10 SG that doesn't shoot efficiently. You can get away with that in high school & college, but it's just not gonna cut it in the NBA. Seems like a good guy but his long-term outlook isn't favorable.

Pritchard doesn't belong in summer league, but extra reps never hurt. Kid has been balling so far.

Drafting Edwards instead of Bol Bol was an enormous mistake.

I'm on the Bruno Fernando bandwagon. Love his physical play so far. Could be a steal for a washed up Tristan Thompson.

So Grant's out there watching Pritchard because Grant's done too much in the league to be bothered to play himself?!?!

Really hope Neismith starts. His skill is shooting and he should get great looks to earn his keep.
