Refs in midseason form.

Honestly ever since about the Dwight years, it feels like the refs have it out for us.

Bet we make a comeback. Usually that's how these summer league games go. Just make a game of it in the 4th is all I ask.

Put the game on your back Suggs! Forced the TO on the inbounds to get the ball back after his TO on the other end. Then hits a buzzer beater over the trees on the drive.

What a freaking stud, man! It’s so bizarre watching an actual player Ike him on the team for once.

It makes you realize how bad the other players are.

Hampton and Cole are bench players for the foreseeable future. RJ seems like the type of guy that should be shooting closer to the basket. Just because you can shoot a 3 doesn't mean that you should.

idk man, it's going to be hard to string stops together with our lack of rim protection (/rebounding). If we put a center in, then we play 4 on 5 on offense.

The talent gap between Suggs and Cole/RJ is eye-opening. Not that I didn’t expect it but not by this amount. Part of it is just how terrible Cole and RJ have been in these physical games.

Refs are trash this game but regardless you can't put your hands on the ref, even if it's just to get their attention. It's soft but they'll call that on every non-superstar.

Yes, he's Marcus Smart/ D Wade in that department. Jalen is active on both ends of the court. He'll be fun to watch this season.

I don't mind the commentators, thought Stephanie Ready was way worse.

I know he’s just a G League dude, but Gravett runs the point better than anyone not named Suggs right now. He hits his 3’s, plays D, makes great passes.

I see no reason why Cole should have minutes over him right now.

Mobley is a project. Anyone expecting otherwise will be disappointed.
He is and taking him at 3 is a mistake. His percentages in college were just terrible.
