LOL I knew the Gordon supporters and Smart supporters would come back swinging. Making my day. wink

And the dribbling.....sigh.
When does Dante play?
Gordon has to be used right. He isn't going to find his shot coming off screens or shooting off the dribble. He needs to hone his spot-up skills first.
Mind providing a link so we can enjoy this unfailure of non-jazz teams as much as you are?
Every year!
Gordon had a bad offensive game, but his shot does look different. Better form, shots were mainly soft off of the front of the rim. His defense was OK, not up to his normal game. I think he'll be just fine. Smart is going to be just fine as well.
The one player that kind of got exposed was Payton. He can't dribble with his left hand under pressure. He's going to have to work on that before the season starts.
FYI - I'm sure Exum will also have some really good and bad moments. Brace yourselves... he's not MJ 2.0 quite yet!
Remember last year Kelly Olynyk looked like the next Kevin Mchale during summer league. However Damian Lillard looked real good in summer league and it carried over. I still think summer league is worth something, otherwise the NBA wouldn't do it.
This is seriously one of the worst posts ever. One game into SL and we are declaring ourselves winners for not having to endure Gordon....
Aaron Gordon, the fourth overall pick out of Arizona, shot 3 of 11 from the field and had four turnovers with seven points and five rebounds in 25 minutes for Orlando in the loss to the Sixers. Boston guard Marcus Smart, the No. 6 pick out of Oklahoma State, missed 6-of-8 shots but had 10 points against Miami.
I will be surprised if Exum plays this badly for sure.
