All this craziness and what we lost for no value coming back from Randle has really dulled some fun for me with Summer League and they aren't related. Will feel a whole lot better if we can keep Brook around.
How many minutes will Lebron be playing tonight? Is he on a minutes restriction or will he go wire to wire?
Svi looked phenomenal. I told you guys the kid could play. Moe looked alright, but if he's struggling with Summer League strength, the NBA will be cruel to him. He needs a body makeover. I liked Xavier Rathan-Mayes although he tailed off towards the end. Hart found his groove when he hit that shot to end the half. The refs were absolutely dreadful. Let too much go, then gave too many whistles trying to get back control, then let the Kings do literally whatever they wanted. Bagley and Fox spent a lot of that game shoving people and laughing about it. I'm glad when it's all said and done we have LeBron, so when the Kings with all four of their 1st round picks can barely beat our Summer League squad it really tells you where they are in the league.
Great game from our 3 young studs tonight - Hart, Moe, and Svi. You can really see the big man Kuzma comparison with Moe. He'll need to get stronger, but that will come. Hart was just rock solid. Had a few too many turnovers but it will happen when he's handled the ball a lot. Still prefer him without handling the ball going forward. Svi was lights out shooting, doesn't need a lot of space. Showed those underrated hops as well and nice close outs.
The refs were horrible this game. And yes, I’m finally glad to come away from a summer league game knowing only 3 players from our actual roster are on it, and they’re all bench players. Meanwhile the Kings are playing like 6 of their actual guys in Fox, Mason, Bagley, Giles, Jackson, and Hayes. It’s also funny that Crazy Eyes Brown can’t get off their summer league bench.
haha, The Lakers brass was probably worn out by Hart's consistent plea to play. I actually thought they were going to grant him more games but because tonight is a back to back he would play on Thursday instead (last game in the Sacramento Summer League for us).
Posting this because lord knows we don't want to have to listen to the Kings announcers again and some may not have NBATV
Dude you're a Stud. Thank you for that. I have the game set to record on SSN but just added it to record on ESPN 2 now. The Kings announcers were horrible. And their audio was horrible. I kept turning it up to at least be able to hear and then commercials would come on blasting way loud.
Christie was probably doing multiple hand gestures for his wife during the broadcast... Yep, I noticed the drop in sound or spots of dead air.
