Is Scoot gonna play so he can dunk on Miller?

 

[Chris Craig]

Is Scoot gonna play so he can dunk on Miller?

TBD

I hope so.

 

[THE HCP]

Is Scoot gonna play so he can dunk on Miller?

I hope not.

 

[RippedCity]

Scoot is out.

So I guess we get the pleasure of watching a shoot-first, shoot-second point guard again.

[Wizard Mentor]

Charlotte can't score. If we continue to play as we have, easy win. But with no Scoot, and if Devoe doesn't go off, anything could happen - especially with Sharpe coasting.

 

[Pinwheel1]

We need to see rebounding from Badji. I like the rest of his game (as a backup) but if he can't rebound he can't play.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Shoot, I'll be at the game was hoping Scoot would play. Fly home early tomorrow.

He still might outplay Brandon Miller from the sidelines, we'll see.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Is Scoot gonna play so he can dunk on Miller?

Hope not. It’s only summer league. He needs to rest.

A guy commenting on the summer league:

"Brandon Miller, who plays for easily the most horrendous summer league team that I have seen in a very long time. I absolutely despise watching this hornets team."
"It almost makes me not like basketball anymore."

At 3:10 in this video

 

[James lamphear]

Like see Sharpe have a complete game I don't expect to much from Murray due we have know guard that can get him the ball in his spots.

 

[Predator]

This is going to be a brutal game to watch.

Charlotte assembled a team without a point guard. Absolutely brutal to watch them on offense.

Thanks, they talk about Scoot around 7:50 ish

You are actually rooting for us to win these games? Honest question. I mean I’m not rooting against our boys, but can’t see how invested you can be if our star isn’t playing and our other star is sleepwalking thru these games.

 

[THE HCP]

Goes to show you how absolutely worthless this stat is.

 

[andalusian]

Goes to show you how absolutely worthless this stat is.

Actually it goes to show that like all stats, it means very little if the sample size is small.

Last year's summer league title was probably the 3rd best part of last season after the hot start and Dame 71 so yeah I'd like to see them win.

Making the semifinals and finals also gives the games more meaning. We might see Scoot play some. Even without Scoot we have a lot of rostered players.

 

[Idog1976]

Anyone know why they are holding out Scoot again? That seems over the top.

 

[Tince]

He's injured. It's summer league.

I can't figure this place out. People freak out when starters are playing 4th quarter minutes with a double-digit deficit in the regular season, but want a lottery pick to play in summer league while injured?

It's going to be ok.

WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO RUIN OUR REPEAT SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP?????

 

[Tince]

WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO RUIN OUR REPEAT SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP?????

LOL... I believe it can still happen!

 

[DDolla]

Scoot playing?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Sucks this game isn’t on Root Sports.

 

[THE HCP]

He’s injured…..it’s summer league.

 

[KingSpeed]

Scoot playing?

No but he might play next game

 

[THE HCP]

No but he might play next game

So take this for example….how does this guy know this? Inside sources?
So tired of people on here, twitter, YouTube, who claim they have knowledge of shit they just don’t.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Only on your NBA2K24.

There is a tweet on the first page of this thread with Jonah saying he might play still in the SL after today.
