Game Thread Jul 06, 2022 07:00pm: Grizzlies Vs Jazz (Summer League)

Okay, why did we take Brice over GG again?

The big semi confirmed thing is he couldn't complete a teams workout and was hitting a vape afterwards in the team lockerroom.

it would explain why he had such a big fall. NBA teams are usually willing to bet on talent/size that was highly ranked in HS even if they stunk it up in college (see Baldwin and Watson last year in the first round)

I see what you all are seeing with GG, but this ain’t the show. Be interesting to see how he does though.

Brice might not even play any time rehabbing his knees for a year (speculation)..... so we take him over GG? We drafted 3 players in the top 30 and only 1 of them can play at summer league?

Them not playing in SL doesn’t mean anything lol.

I had GG at #29, but he’s definitely boosting his stock right now. Looks great out there.

He is clearly on a different talent tier from everyone else on the court. And he’s still the youngest player out there.

Even better: the Jazz were already well into discussions about taking on John Collins, already having Lauri (and Walker, and KO) and thought burying their top pick was a good idea.

The only return we might see this year from those picks is Keyonte. I’m not comfortable how much it feels like we’re riding on that when we had three picks and he wasn’t even the top pick.

Victor played early summer, he's going to play this weekend. It means something, even if the competition isn't there

Probably not with Hendricks. Brice missing the predraft process because of a knee surgery for a chronic problem that doesn’t really heal is hard to overstate.

Uh, I don’t know if I’d go that far but he’s playing well. So well you’re already counting Hendricks out for the season? lol. I’d chill a little bit on SL.

 

[Shad]

Brice over GG is a mistake. I don't care what anyone says.

 

[KqWIN]

It will be funny to see the abandoned ship GG crowd try to act all upset now as if they didn’t actually quit on him.

Maybe I should do my victory lap for being higher on them Too soon?

lol ochai jacking up 3s

Is Hendricks playing?

Is Hendricks playing?

Is he out for the season?

What the **** are you talking about? He’s not playing. When someone says “on the court” you think that applies to people in street clothes?

Can we at least see Brice play first?

Nah, he ded or something.

You won't be seeing him play for at least a year apparently

 

[Elizah Huge]

For all the people ******** on Brice there is a 0% shot he makes it out of the top-20 if he doesn’t have an injury.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Where is that coming from?
