Summer League Discussion

I just don't see it with Manon yet. He's OK ..but he's not giving me potential rotation player vibes.

 

No 2-way should.
He does have the traits you look for in a guard to backup Luka/AR. Very strong defensively and able to hold his own offensively.

Training camp will do wonders for these guys, practicing against top competition and then carry those learnings to the g-league. He's another 2 years from becoming a rotation player, if he gets there. That's the type of 2-ways I want

 

Maybe..Kuluma looks more capable of sticking in the big leagues to me.

 

I like Manon's effort, him and Kaluma are the closest two ways on the Summer League team.

Don't know that either make the main team though.

 

Go for undefeated record
JJ at the game

 

Big lead at the half … let’s see if we wear them out in the 2nd half as they’ve been doing.

 

I suppose beating Clippers at any level is a good thing.

Manang or whatever his name is leading us in Rebounds as a guard?

I don't love that.

 

Kaluma still feeling it tonight


It'd be nice to have a better passer on the court cause he had 3 nice dives/cuts that either went unnoticed or the guard just didn't have the ability to make that pass.



Liked Kyle's 14 minutes. 7 boards, his usual high motor and he got his swat game going with 3. I've been underwhelmed with that aspect of his game being a summer league no show until tonight because of his college stats, tape and rep, but finally delivered.


I'll give credit where it's due, Okereke looked better tonight especially in the 1st Q. Things were simplified for him and he hit some 3s. Defense was dicey on the perimeter, they got by him basically every time. He recovered on some, others not so much. Still hate his game.

What else... Hickey had a flat game. Suder actually out performed him tonight.

The team as a whole has been a lot of fun. They get up and down the court, really get after it defensively. Biggest issue is lack of a lead guard but they still manage. Our best crew since the baby Lakers and most of that crew went on to have pretty successful NBA careers.

 

The difference with this team is we are going to keep them together and win multiple championships.

 

Manon is a great rebounder. He had 8 in the previous game.
I like that about him, it's a nice secondary skill on a guard. The Spurs guard rooks have it too and it helps them. It allows them to start the transition quicker, as they grab the board, do a couple dribbles and they're already ahead at least 2 opponents.

Love to see this team having a defensive identity. Great stuff
