I think Michael-Carter Williams is going to be a bust but i thought that before the draft.

Everyone needs to remember the Summer League is worthless in terms of judging players. There isn't much structure and there isn't really any chemistry. And there are lot of players who play better as the competition gets stronger. If they play with bad players they get worse also.
Its very common for play makers to struggle in the summer league. Scorers usually do much better.

So everyone needs to not judge Trey Burke. He will struggle a bit because he plays better with structure. It really is just a 5 on 5 practice. If anything its worse because you have guys trying to make teams so they usually over play everything and become ball hogs and ruin it for the guys trying to learn the offense.

I sat in the first few rows of the Rocky Mountain Review since the mid 90's all the way up until it was canceled. So I love going to watch but you have to realize its not a good place to judge certain players.
 
Nickleson scores on Olynyk, and 1. Olynyk can't stop anyone.
Wow great on one end, horrible on the other

Like Kyle Wiltjer for UK (well, transferring..). 6'10 guy that hits 40+% from 3 and post moves galore... but can't defend ANYONE.
 
I just purchased NBA Summer League for 15 bucks. And guess what the app says...... no games on today.

What the F***?
