If Tatum isn't getting an iso then he's not doing anything. He needs to be more active off ball.

Ball looks good. HIs game is already pretty poised and mature for a young player. I can see the Jason Kidd comp. He'll figure out where his scoring opportunities will come.

Celtics have a bunch of ball hog scrubs who are shooting a lot trying to make the team. I wish Tatum would get the ball more. Jaylen is playing stupid with those iso jump shot but then again everyone else is doing that on the team as well.

Never seen such broadcasting biasness. The producer of this show must either be on Magic's payroll, or Lavar gave him free shoes. One or the other.

Tatum took 8 shots in the first half, tied with Kuzma for most shots in the game.

Ya, especially in summer league. You see the Warriors and other teams in the NBA do it all the time. Not worth it with these guys.

The Celtics scrubs are trying to Iso while Tatum gets 0 touches over the last 3 minutes.

This is the one annoying thing in SL where development takes a back seat to guys tryna make the League.

Who is supposed to be defending Kuzma? They're not doing it.

Ball is absolutely shredding Boston right now with his passing. Maybe he just had a bad game last night? Nah. Couldn't be. :)

So Danny Ainge parlayed the number one pick in a great draft into probably the 5th or 6th best player. Talented.

Exactly... It wouldn't work if Zo ended up in the boondocks like Sacramento, Milwaukee, Minny, etc.. but in LA... And especially if Zo does well... It will be brinks trucks for Lavar.. Lakers Nation will support him..

And you know this how? You have some weird agenda against the Celtics.

Get ready for endless Lonzo Ball hype. ESPN has to cater to the LA metro tv market more than nearly any other.
