SUMMER LEAGUE 2021!

I'm saying it now. Not only did we get the best player in the draft but we also got the best center and the best defender.

 

Suggs lookin pretty good rn

 

Is the jersey number 4 the new 23? 4 of the top 5 picks are wearing (or want to ) wear #4

 

Suggs with the little Chris Paul post up there. Dude looks solid. Crazy to think that 1-5 could all be All Stars.

 

If i here one more "That Guy" or "just another Guy" joke, I'm flying to Vegas and slapping the anouncers. Amusing the first time. Not amusing the next 150 times.

 

Davion Mitchell continues to impress. He was giving James Bouknight THE BUSINESS.

People forget that before Kuminga reclassified, he was the number 1 ranked player in his class and he’s flashing BIG TIME. He’s only 18! He’s been going to the basket at will with both hands and overpowering his defender. He’s a legit 6’8, probably still growing, already has a man body and is only going to get stronger. I was a little worried about him coming out, but I see it, he definitely has tremendous upside and belongs in the conversation with Cunningham, Green, Mobley, and Barnes when you start talking about who can be the best player in this class.

Jalen Suggs looks really solid out there. Playing hard nosed defense, getting rebounds, steals and pushing tempo. I like what I see so far from him too. Looking like a skinny Kyle Lowry. Just being a pest.

 

I don't like him playing off ball at the 2 though, maybe it's just something Orlando wants to take a look at.

 

I'll be in attendance, 6 pm PT. Can't wait.

 

Yeah this is an awful look for him. Dude needs the ball in his hands. Was wondering why he was standing at the corner in the PJ Tucker role lol.

 

Agree. I was always high on Kuminga although i think that he is not a good player right now. But he has all the tools he needs to be a big time player.

I'm not sold on Suggs, still. He does nothing that impresses me. He's very, very solid. Solid but not exciting. Not that much upside imo.
I would've picked Kuminga over Suggs. Teams picking in that range should look for highest upside, imo.

 

Agreed, Jalen Green I think will end up being the new James Harden type superstar without the off the court issues.

I love Sengun, I know Mobley is good, but I think Sengun can become the best C

Agreed on Garuba, if that's who you mean, love all 4 picks, hope they all carve out a role long term with the Rockets.

 

Both Suggs and Kuminga playing with more fire and intensity compared to Cade yesterday lol

 

Tell me you’re from the country without saying you’re from the country.

Perk in regards to the Jalen and Cade rivalry:
“If you got beef let’s make some hamburgers.”

 

I'm actually more interested in how well Davion Mitchell has been playing.

 

I love Suggs he is going to be a tough nosed player that has natural floor general leadership. I was early on team Suggs because I hadn't pulled in all my data on Green. I was high on Mobley because his motor and lack of power for a big scares the hell out of me.

 

He was very good against Charolette today. Good numbers, but better than dry stats would indicate. Clutch plays and lockdown defense.

 

That was my only red flag with Mobley. It was never about his play. It was always about having to wait for him to get it all together to where we could see the real Evan Mobley.

 

Davion is really good from what I've seen (which isn't much). He is a classic case of people overvaluing height. He's short but he doesn't play like it.
Some people had him falling way down in their mocks. I've seen as bad as #20 or something. I think he's good, but he's also quite a bit older than most players in his pick range.

 

Cole Anthony is clearly trying to outplay his own teammate (Jalen Suggs) at times and he is looking like trash in the process. I’m sure his ego was bruised when they drafted Suggs and he feels threatened.

Amazing defensive play by Suggs to potentially save the game! Very meh offense at the end to try to win it.
