    We don’t run anything. I don’t know if I’m ready for another year of Silas ball.

    y’all knew summer league is fast paced up and down pick up type of game were Jabari would most certainly struggle, why are we acting surprised?

    He's 42.3% from 3...who we got that shoots better than that...what is he 0 for 1 ? That's his game ! He's already taking it inside which was not his strength at Auburn. He's taken FOUR shots...ONE trey.

    Paolo playing like the Rockets are the ones that passed on him. Hope they can get Jabari involved a bit more. Especially since the Rockets shut guys down early in Summer League.

    Nix is going to be the new tank commander. I feel it.

    Jabari being completely phased out by these scrub ass LA fitness hoopers is infuriating to say the least, dude needs to demand the fckin ball...

    smith has played ok . JC and Nix and Tari and Lamb? have all been looking for their own shot . We kept this game close for a while and it was due to defense . Jabari was in charge of that . Ty ty's level went down a little bit and JC is on the bench .

    Jabari with kpj and tate and sengun and green .. those guys all willing passers . smith looks very quick

    No I am not. Plenty of bigs have to be set up, legendary bigs. Bigs usually depend on guards to give them the ball, if the guards don't do that then there is not much they can do but smack them up the head and tell them to give them the F'n ball.

    Since Jabari isn't a point forward and never advertised to be it makes sense that he has to have plays run for him if the guards don't give him the ball there isn't much he can do.

    Eason is showing more promise, but I think Smith will look different in a proper role next to Sengun with guards like KPJ and Green.

    Jc is a chucking turnover machine. Jabari had a nice take on Paolo then got one blocked. Looked better though
