Im proud of you, with about 4 minutes left in the 4th I just couldnt do it anymore. That was some of the ugliest basketball I think Ive ever seen. Im not even sure if they were trying to run plays, or really what they were doing...

Quite different than the Spurs SL effort. They don't have the talent but things seem much more organized and disciplined.

I had read all of the comments here, and hoped it was just people overreacting. Uhh, nope. You guys called it.... Lol

You mean the offense that made it to the WCF? You are also judging it based on the first summer league game of a bunch of players just thrown together a couple days ago. Your Stotts bashing is hilarious though.

Somebody's overreacting. But sure, as well as the offense that got swept in the 1st round!

What the fuck is your deal? Do you have something personal against bones??? You weren't even in that conversation, yet AGAIN, you come out swinging at him....

Jesus, get a life.
 
The collective IQ of this group is so incredibly low.

Nas looked decent defensively. Struggled to find his place offensively, much like he did at UNC. Just really doesn't have feel for playing within the flow of an offense.

Anfernee had some great moments on both ends but needs to be more of a leader of there. Tough ask considering the circumstances but it's on him to set the pace and get his guys organized.

And they appeared to be running the same offense as the guys at my gym. One idiot dribbles into 3 other guys panics and throws it to the other team...

He's allowed to have an opinion.
 
I'm not at all worried about Nas yet.

This is not the first time we have seen a young guy look shell shocked in their first summer league game.

He doesn’t even have a role on the SL team lol this is more on coaching+roster construction of this team. He will be fine once real basketball starts with players not fucking up the flow of games to try and get a contract.
 
They better figure out real quick that the Blazers need a PG because that kid ain't ready. Then they obviously better get another Center with the other open roster spot.
Blazers pinning a little too much hope on an Ant trying to play a mans game.

I thought Nas looked fine in one on defensive situations, team stuff and being in the right place the whole team was a mess. Offensively was ugly but it looked like they hadn't really practiced plays much (which maybe they hadn't).

I was really impressed with anfernee's ability to move his feet on defense, quickness won't be his problem.

Not sure if I'm on board with you on your last statement, isn't part of playing point guard setting the pace for the team and getting your guys in position, when I played that was always part of my job.
It's one game in SL and I thought Anf looked good overall, I thought Hoard looked like he may be a legit NBA player someday, and Nas just looked like he needs some time to figure things out, but it's one game. Even if that's how they look all of SL it doesn't mean that's how their seasons going to go.

Also if you're looking for conversation(which it's a forum...) opening with insulting everyone's IQ seems like quite a way to start, so now if someone disagrees with you you've already taken the position you think they're stupid.

There seems to be a whole lot of misunderstanding going on in this post.

But maybe I'm the one misunderstanding.

This shit right here. I was AMAZED with how fast he recovered on D, with side-steps. CRAP! He is VERY fast in that department.
