Summer league

[1eyejack]

Feel like a little kid can't wait for summer league. Ready to see Our rookies play some ball!

Questions
1. How's Collins look against NBA bigs? How's the 3pt shot? How does he handle switching on pick and rolls? Does his block shots translate to NBA?

2. Swanigan- is he able to get his shot off against NBA bigs? How's his foot speed look? How's his rebounding? Like Collins how's he handle pick and roll?

3. Vonleh- assume he's playing. Can he continue to show improvement? Has his offense improved?

OMG the draft is just weeks away, I can't wait!

...OMG Summer league is just weeks away, I can't wait!

.....OMG the season is just weeks away...

.....Trade deadline just weeks away.

Queue the Tom Petty.

I'm not assuming Vonleh will play, and if he does I can guarantee he doesn't play every game. More likely just one or two so he can shit on the competition and enter the season with confidence.

 

[Scalma]

Not expecting much from either of our picks. Summer league isn't made for bigs. I want to see layman. Heard he's been at the practice facility non stop. Want to see more consistency with his shot and if he got any stronger physically.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

If I had money I would bet it that Vonleh won't play, which is good, because we want Collins and Swanigan playing all the frontcourt minutes. Will Napier and Quarterman play? What about Forgotten Man Jake Layman?

Anybody been checking on what Layman has been doing this offseason?

And I read somewhere else, forget where, that he's been putting on weight.

Btw Meyers should be living in that gym, but I guess he's too busy taking shirtless hiking photos or whatever the fuck he's doing that's not basketball.

The ball should touch one of Swanigan or Collins every time down the court.

The ball should touch one of Swanigan or Collins every time down the court.

And not just before it goes out of bounds.

My guess is Napier no, 1/4 man yes.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

How many games in before people start shitting the bed about our guys' performance because it's a guard-dominated free-for-all?

He's gotta use Twitter to advertise for car dealerships that give him free cars, that probably takes some time.

I still remember the nightmare that was Pierre Jackson and Russ smith last year

Before halftime of Game 1 somebody will complain about something regarding our players.
