It SHOULD be Brown.

So, thats great News.

I'm sure Brad will do a lot of tinkering until he finds his sweet spot.

I fully admit I was on the Josh Jackson train, but damn I'm coming around.

It IS only summer league, but his skills and moves should translate really well. He should get better from 3 as well.

I'm liking what I'm seeing for sure.

How are you feeling about your boys?

 

[Gman]

Brown as Tatum getting reps in together this Summer is great.

You guys might start Smart, with those two carrying the 2nd unit.

But, Jaylen is gonna have that job before Seasons end.

I'd love to see Brown getting the starting role right from the beginning...

With him out there surrounded by IT, Hayward, (Crowder or Morris) and Horford... with that kind of shooting and passing all around him... he'll have plenty of opportunity to do what he does best. This:

I think we should have bottomed out after losing Cp3.

But, since we didnt, Jerry/Doc did a reasonable job getting a return.

There is no replacing Paul.

But, I am looking forward to seeing Milos on the break with DJ and BG13.

However, Teodosic makes Midget Isiah look like Kawhi on the defensive end.

That's gonna be brutal...lol



We will be all style, no substance and a 6-8 seed.

I'm in the minority. But, even with the Minny, Denver improvements, I don't think we fall out of the playoffs.

Lou can replace Crawford's scoring. Milos can get a reasonable amount of assists and Beverly will have to try and replicate Paul's defense.

The biggest issue will be JJ's shooting. I wanted Gallo. But, he's not gonna replace Redick's shooting on his own.

@Bolts

You got your Cow bell ready?

Fox, DSJ, Tatum, Mitchell have been str8t studs.

I'm excited, the first of many Ball/Fox NBA battles. It's only Summer League and the stats/W-L records don't matter, but I like what I've seen from Fox so far. The 3pt shot hasn't been there and he made some bad passes yesterday, but the speed and defense have looked really good. And as always, fuck the Lakers

First off, Isaiah isn't a midget, he's a little person.

Now that that's out of the way, I agree that you guys will still make the playoffs. There is still a decent amount of offense on the team. It will be nice to have Beverly to piss off opposing guards as well.

I mean -- Utah is going to decline, right? I don't have a lot of faith in Memphis being all that good. Mavericks, Kings, Lakers, Suns won't be vying for a playoff spot. Portland has screwed itself financially so not sure if they'll improve enough to threaten L.A. Clippers should still be vying for a playoff spot. Not sure if they'll land there or not -- but they're in the running.

Beverly is such a turd-tastic irritant.

Sadly, we are gonna have the same problem again.

The toughest guy in our roster is only 6 feet tall.


Also, They are gonna have to use the buddy system with Milos and Beverly and Lou and Baby Doc.

Can't play either without a defensive minded counterpart.

Yeah, I really like fox.

You guys did really well in the Draft and Free agency this year.

Congrats, Dude.

Yeah, the Jazz lost their starting Pg and SF.

Unless Hood/Exum take a CJ McCollum type leap, They should take a slight step back.

Look....I really like the Kings.

I think the Clippers, Nugs, Blazers, Kings,Jazz will fight it out for 6-8.

Memphis needs to resign Green and have a healthy Parsons or they drop.

Looks like Ball will be resting his balls tonight. Sucks, I really wanted to see the matchup with Fox again.

That's actually smart on the Lakers part.

You know Fox was gonna try to tune his ass up again...lol

....it begins...lol

 

[DJ]

Riley is a great quote as well as GM.

Teodosic AND Gallo can help replace Redick's shooting....

 

[DJ]

He needs to lay off the fucking that is straining his groin....

Yeah, you are correct.

Milos has a decent jumper and 3pt %.

 

[Mecca]

Ummmmmm....

Well, he is a young Millionaire in Vegas.
