I hope you are

I like Collier, but until he can shoot he will be a liability, and it will neuter his ability to use his quickness to drive. He is not elite enough in other areas to not be able to shoot. And his lack of shooting improvement is concerning. That should have been a main focus this summer. Flip's...

There are always going to be players that teams rag on, particularly lottery players that aren't meeting expectations of fans. Hopefully Cody figures things out when the team is on the rise.

Cody looked pretty good in SL last year. It's great for these young guys to get some extra burn, but I don't give a lot of creedence to how someone plays in SL. Hopefully his extra strength pays dividends in the regular season. I anticipate slow and steady improvement. I wish he'd fix his shot.

I thought Tonje looked solid.

IIRC, Cody looked great in Summer League last year, and even his 3 looked decent. He is stronger this year, but not sure his overall game looks any better. Hopefully moving many of the vets puts him in a position to gain some confidence. I don't give much weight to summer league, but I am not...

No way he wins ROY over Ben Simmons.

He looked decwnt in SL last year. I think the removal of Clarkson and Sexton will give him more opportunity and two older players fone he often deferred to. Hope he steps up.

Now you'll hear Ace in the hole, Jazz have an Ace up their sleeve, and Thurl talk about Bailey not being related to him and whatever new idiotic phrase they can think of...

Lol, I meant Collier. Been operating on too little sleep as I'm in the process of getting a new business off the ground and still trying to maintain my current workload.

Sexton is a good shooter and has improved a lot all around, but when I see the offense run under Tre, it makes watching the game more enjoyable. And that says a lot because Tre has a lot to improve on.

It says children under 3 are not allowed. That excludes most of us on JFC...

Yeah, his stats were really bad, and this was during a tanking season when he had ample opportunity to show something. I don't have my hopes up.

First he needs to be assertive. He has shown some glimpses of talent. He definitely has the size and athleticism. He just needs confidence and some fire. How he responds in summer/fall will be telling. I didn't want to draft him as he looked unpolished in college. Easy to say in hindsight, but...
