Thst dude might win many many years in a row.

Incredible show of power.
Stanton was hitting as far or farther, just got out of whack.
Anyway, the seeding format is dumb as fuck.
It's based off nothing.
Just let the top 4 advance, etc...

Now if you only see Lonzo Ball play in person, maybe in something as important as a summer league game. Ok I'll readily admit I don't like hype and I'm ready for footbal, bring it.

So far, I am thinking Lonzo is really going to make the Lakers a pretty good team with his point guard skills. Hopefully once the summer league is over, He obviously has a lot of work to do

1. Conditioning - gets tired really fast
2. Shooting skills - awkward shot - needs to work on that
3. Defensive skills - none yet

Really has talent

I agree. Pretty dumb.

The head to head part can be fun, but I just don't think it makes sense for this contest. Especially when the pairings are so arbitrarily made.

 

[tlance]

I am ready for summer league playoffs to start.

Who do you all have winning it?

Celtics will be tough to beat. That is my pick, assuming they don't start resting guys.

Well, he is a young Millionaire in Vegas.

THAT'S gonna happen...

The dead period is here folks lol

Simmons has the size and vision of Magic.

But, the jumper?

Nah, Son.

I don't remember Magic having a great jumper. We have yet to see how bad Simmons' jumper will be. He supposedly worked on it while he was "injured" this past season.

Durant tossing OKC a few breadcrumbs.

Yeah, when Magic first came into the league, his shot was pretty bad. He never became a great shooter, but he worked on it to the point that he was solid and when he needed to hit a shot in a key moment, he usually did.

If Simmons can do that and stay healthy, he should be just fine.

Comments lose credibility when he talks about winning being the most important reason.
If that was the case, Lakers wouldn't be in the conversation as of today, let alone last year when all of this started.

Lol. I'm not trying to start any drama. It was just interesting for it to come out of his mouth.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Did you see Embiid there?

No.
I was right behind home plate, he's in the outfield.
