Did he play that bad in summer ball?


Are they really just going to roll with IT, Smart and Rozier as true guards?


So many wasted "assets," lol

He was so fucking bad it was staggering. How is it a wasted asset? 2nd round picks are borderline worthless.
 
is it just me or do the Rockets jerseys always look like cheap bootlegs?
The main ones fucking suck

Make ketchup and mustard our main

Keep the black alternates

We would have to keep the Chinese new year jerseys I guess

And then take our current white jersey

and either go to some new style

or go to the old style

Stupidly enough, when Les Alexander bought the team, he ordered new jerseys saying that our current ones were associated with a losing culture. Before they came in, we won the 1994 and 1995 rings. Smh. All the ketchup and mustard combos were great
 
Are the Celtics going to be the youngest team in the league this year? Only one guy over 30, only three guys born in the 80s, 6 rookies on the team.

"The average age of the #Celtics roster, assuming they sign Allen and Bird to 2-ways, is 24.5. And they just made the Conference Finals." -@JaredWeissNBA

The Celtics are making a mockery of the summer league. A lot of people paid good money to see the best NBA players try to win a summer league championship. Silver needs to step in and do something about this.

Silver's leather daddy runs the summer league.

Christ I don't want to be the guy who paid actual money to watch SL.

Most of the guys in those teams ain't even gonna sniff an NBA roster and a sizeable chunk of them won't even cut it in the d-league.

Did they have to renounce his rights to sign Gay? I figured someone would open their wallets for him based on his playoff performance alone, even when he was restricted. Surprised he didn't sign a shorter contract to get back on the open market sooner.

No. Spurs did that after negotiations broke down. I'm assuming he (rightfully) wanted a bigger role/payday that the Spurs couldn't justify after adding Gay and co.

I honestly think Simmons is better

I would love to see Simmons play against some kinda NBA talent even if its Summer League, Lonzo seems even better playing with these players and NBA rules and spacing then he did in college. Its Crazy he never had a triple double in college, but two in summer league and avg one in HS

Well you can see that, here's last year's highlight reel from Summer League

Ben Simmons will probably be on more Top 10 highlight reels, but Ball probably is a more "functional" passer due to all the skip ahead passes and such that aren't as exciting but probably lead to more assists.
