What did Josh promise Watford?



Funny coincidence. Hart was the MVP of that Laker team that we beat in our last SL finals. He was ejected from that game.



And yes, thats Chauncey commentating. Full circle...

And Tyler Ford ejected Hart--same ref that stepped on Nurk's broken leg.

Super high BBIQ, makes open threes at a good rate, gets great positioning for rebounds and has great timing for post defense. If we were looking at him as a small ball 5 then maybe he could get in the rotation but again, these scrubs he's playing against are making him look good on all of those things listed above. He still gets blown by a helluva lot in SL. Good footwork but not enough footspeed.

Getting "blown by" is what happens when you take away the 3-point shot of a player who can dribble. The defender can still track that player to the hoop and affect their shot. That's what Jabari Walker does. He follows and stays between the ball handler and the hoop.
 
Can't wait for @Natebishop3 to buy me one so I made my own!

Sorry Sly, I was gonna sell the autographed John Crotty jersey that you gave me and get you the ring of your dreams, but I guess it’s a fake so I didn’t get any money. No ring for you.

Solution: Buy him a fake ring

Buy him a ring pop and lick it a few times then mail it to him with a letter saying that you approve of the taste.

Of course it doesn't matter, but it's fun. Why not enjoy it? What other Blazer stuff is there to engage in right now?

Why did that make fans "desperate" for enjoying what is?

Ask the players if it doesn't matter.

It's sports. It doesn't matter as much as any other sport at any other level doesn't matter.

:cheers:

The Kings have won Summer League twice in nine years and we have won it once. Winning Summer League is nice but it should not come at the expense of player development.

The regular games were for development. The championship game is for the championship. One, it's a reward for their hard work and teamwork. Two, playing in a championship game, and especially winning it, IS player, and character, development, at any level.

:cheers:

Summer League championship is only one that matters to me. The “Finals” in June is all about money and it’s fixed. Summer League title is also harder to win.

And has better officiating.

I think the most important takeaway is that the guys we expect to make it onto the main club all looked good.

Watford
Walker
Keon
Williams

We need them to play well so that we have some depth next season.

Do we have room for Williams?

He is one of our 2 ways.

Williams is nice on a bad team (see last season). I just don't see Williams contributing to winning on a good team. I hope the Blazers are a good team; ergo I don't see the point of Williams. I'd rather use the spot on potential.
