    You could tell Elie isn't high on Garuba and JC...I see why now.

    JC is going to be fine, his scoring mentality and fearlessness will make him a valuable 6th man in the future.

    Well I actually like him, but in these two summer league games, he really played like a selfish ballhog.

    To be fair he cleaned it up in game 2 and admitted to handling game 1 wrong.

    I saw him barrel into several defenders and getting off a ridiculous shot with four people open several times in game 2 as well.

    That’s Josh Christopher for you. He was still better than game 1 from a tunnel vision perspective.

    That’s his default setting, to aggressively go after buckets. I think in the 2nd game he focused better on distributing. He’s a work in progress or he wouldn’t be in the summer league.

    I thought the same when Mario said he was traded to Houston - it must had been Vernon!

    Mario calling out OT, Herrera, and Jent (lol) from that first championship team gave me the tingles.

    Funny seeing the Junkyard Dog telling his own dog to shut up.

    Great interview!

    Wow, great listen. Loved.

    Amazing take on how pissed he was when OT was traded. This dude sitting with his legs crossed in the locker room!

    Interesting about Sengun. Score more down low.

    I guess he's not a fan of KD. Lol
