oooook, this is not the same SL team as last year, huh?

By the way.....bad news: Reddit has banned NBA Streams for Copywrite. Not sure what we're going to do in the regular season. It fucking sucks....that was the only way I could watch a game.

Already a new subreddit up. They also have an "NBA chat" discord, which is basically a hub for the game stream links, which mostly appear to be on Reddit anyway.

Grant Williams had such a Grant Williams game in his first action as well. Three ball looks real. Looked more fluid and comfortable operating on the perimeter on both ends than even I expected.

He was the guy I was hoping we'd draft.

Do you have a link to the subreddit? I hope you don't HAVE to have discord to get the links.....I'm signed up with enough things already.

Tyler Herro has been impressive.

Wish Jarrett Culver was playing today. Really curious to see how he looks.

Caleb Swanigan looked good in SL too. They have some of the same deficiencies which arent really punished playing against this level of talent.
 
Trent is going out of his mind. I like it. I missed the first quarter, but I caught half of the 2nd.

And thanks @LuckyShot for the link!

We'll see

Both are smart and skilled and their physical deficiencies aren't nearly as extreme or important for their roles.
 
I think Simons will be fine at PG but it’s obvious he’s new to the position and will take time to settle in. I know the team is high on him but they should probably go out and add another point guard, along with another big. It’s good to have insurance and competition is never a bad thing.

CJ was the same way in summer league. I would've never imagined him being capable of bringing the ball up. He would get trapped and turn the ball over a lot.

It's pretty crazy how much he improved his ball handling. Hopefully Simons does the same thing.

He did play point for 48 minutes of an actual NBA game. only had 2 turnovers, with 9 assists. Summer league is not a good indicator of much.

OK.. Really quick tho...

Why isn't Little starting???

I'm confused about how he's being used. Why wouldn't he get the most run at SF? Who the hell is the guy starting over him??

WHY??????

I noticed that two unless the coach just wants to give the guy some run that he might get interest from someone else?
 
Little is still playing the 3rd most minutes on the team though.
 
I was confused on the Little thing as well. I wondered if the team was doing a solid for the agents of the other dudes starting?

Little's D on the perimiter is the thing that I have been impressed with. He's got good instincts and length to contest 3 pointers, even if he's forced under a screen. Doesn't seem to mind doing the dirty work of playing D and crashing the glass.

He should be playing the most. At the SF and PF spot. These cast offs are garbage and we need to be developing our new guys.

He's third behind Trent and Simons.
