    not sure if serious

    Eason dribbled into like 3 airball threes…he hardly created anything

    they just treat Jabari like he has an invisibility cloak on

    all I know is last year's summer league coach made Jalen look like an MVP and then Silas did nothing like that in the regular season.

    This coach is running no plays for Jabari which means Silas will park him in the corner as a spacer for his gravity and maybe run a play.

    Yeah Nix is done. Send him back to G league. Thought this dude would come out crisp proving he belongs.

    Every July I get excited for Summer League and then it starts and I remember that Summer League sucks.

    It's probably fun to watch in person but that was doodoo basketball.

    if he didn’t score we would have lost by 30

    He went undrafted for a reason.

    It's not even about that. He was not even getting to touch the ball. Lol this sounds like early season green all over

    10/3/7 vs 17/6/4. Not a huge difference. Bari isn’t the ball handler Banchero is but Jabari’s going to shine with the better creators and the space the big leaguers bring. Defensively bari looked as advertised.

    Yeah seeing Banchero drilling middies and 3s and them playing well enough on D. I think the mismatch arguments was overblown. They would've fit each others game well.

    A team full of chuckers- heck Tari has more of a trigger than Jabari and he can’t shoot.

    Jabari has to learn to flip the switch and get aggressive

    I think he is more of a big wing than a big. His frame will need to fill out for him to be considered a true big but since the league is trending toward smaller bigs, it works in Smith’s favor.

    That was what i meant when i said Smith was the only one that played team ball.
    I know this is SL & Josh made this game about him & he's already part of the team so let the other guys do their thing instead of chucking everything
