    Not saying he's not talented, but that I just don't see him play with the type of energy you expect from a leader and from a #1 pick. I don't think he's the guy who's going to lead you even if he contributes from the get-go.

    He still reminds me of Russ to be honest, good and bad, depending of your view on his game and on-court demeanor.

    That's why Magic didn't want him.

    Anyone know the TV schedule for the Laker summer league team? I remember last year seeing some games on Spectrum.

    Think Laker team will blow teams out (by 15-20pts) and win the SL Championship haha

    I've been looking at the raw footage from the practice and Kuzma is going to be a very good shooter, IMO. It's a little flat, but nice form and consistent, I thought...

    It's essentially his "sophomore" year because he missed all his first year like Embiid missed his first two?

    Randle isn't playing and he missed his whole first year in the same draft class.

    Man, I wish. I'm going to be in LA next week on vacation, but I'm not going to be able to get out to Vegas.

    I think because he actually played the first game of the season, it counted for him.
