Summer League Jazz vs Thunder Why are you all sleeping?

Turrible finish to the game. Cut all of them...they're a bunch of choke artists.

Seriously, it looked like Utah just quit trying. Scouting report for OKC was to double Burks, stop the up and under by Kanter and let anyone else shoot. It worked!
 
Las Vegas production is so much better. The Rockets have the most stacked SL team in the entire league.

Let's see...you're a FA struggling to make an NBA team, whether as a guy who's been in the D-League, Europe or as an undrafted rookie. Team A invites you to go to Orlando, with only 8 teams present, playing in a practice gym closed to all but a select few. Team B offers to put you up for a week in Vegas and you'll play in front of thousands of fans. And it's Vegas baby. There are going to be a lot more personnel guys from around the world in Vegas vs. Orlando.

I think they will go to any team that invites them and gives them the most PT/best opportunity. All 30 teams scouts and GM's watch both leagues.

But given a couple of offers, I think a FA would rather go to Vegas. IINM, sometimes players are able to play in both leagues, either leaving Orlando early or getting to Vegas after their team has played a game already.

I think they would go to whoever gives them the most PT, or the best opportunity for PT. If you are an undrafted FA PG, you aren't going to go to a team that just drafted a PG with a top 10 pick, you will go to one who has an opening for PG minutes.
 
FWIW, I like LV SL over Orlando mainly because of programming. I enjoy visiting the LV games more so, by far, than the ORL .. and no it's not because of the under-bleacher-BJ's.

Please explain. Maybe no high ceiling, but I thought he way overperformed expectations as a rookie

He can shoot. He'll get killed on defense, killed. I've watched him for years and he can have a nice game, but them go stretches with nothing. Is he a decent bench guy that can assume a role, sure. But that's it.

He was actually praised by a lot of people for his defense last year in Houston. Was considered their best defender I believe.
