    Why not have two players set some staggered screens for Smith? I see little reason for him to set the screen on a PnR. He's clearly not comfortable doing that. Let someone else have that role.

    Then maybe Smith's catching the ball with a clear idea that it's his turn to make a play. Screen for Smith, then go disappear behind the 3-point line.

    Just because you look big, doesn't mean you are fat

    To clarify, (my opinion based on all I've read and heard) is YES Banchero is the better player today and NBA ready. But Smith has the highest ceiling and is a better fit alongside Green. Time will tell - not tonights Summer League game.

    You already know it.

    It’s hilarious.

    Screenshot all the debbie downers and remind them when they’re first ones claiming they “knew Jabari was great all along!”

    This is basically an exhibition game with very little practice before hand. Y'all need to chill.....

    We need a PG to give the ball to Jabari but I’m impressed with his handles. They need to give the ball to Jabari and let him shoot. I love Eason play

    Biggest takeaway for me is we need decent young centre.
    Smith is not a centre.
    Garuba IMO is a bust.
    Sengun can't do it alone.
    Boban............ hmm

    Jabari does not have the higher ceiling. He will never be close to the playmaker/passer that Paolo is.

    Eason jumper looks nice.

    Haven’t seen Jabari touch the ball yet.

    Is Nix normally this rotund?

    Remember how many were saying Jalen Green is a bust who later STFU about him.

    Why is Josh Christopher playing so much?

    How does a 7 footer playing like a hybrid Luka and Lebron have a lower ceiling than Jabari Wood Jr?
