Las Vegas Summer League thread

It's a good thing Brantley caught fire from the 3pt line cuz he was absolute garbo when finishing layups and attempts underneath the basket. lol

Btw when I was watching Dok shooting free-throws during warm ups, he'd be hitting them easily like 8 out of 10. I think it's all in his head during an actual game.

Will have to go watch the replay of this one at some point as it sounds like it may have been a fun one.

Just skip the 1st quarter.

We can’t lose.

Not the first quarter, yikes. The steadily gained in offensive rhythm as the game went on

Or the entire first half

Second quarter had its hiccups but there was some good things there.

Are the jazz undefeated this summer?

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Jazz should beat the Clippers in their next game. The Clips aren't good.

Hughes looked like an NBA player tonight. The Heat looked like a bunch of undrafted dudes.

Forrest averaging 15/7/7 over 3 games in Vegas. He has been so consistent

I agree. This was probably Hughes' best game ever.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

How was Miami undefeated, they suck bad!!

Did anyone else find it annoying that all game long they kept praising the heats defense, all the while the jazz for most of the game killed it on that side?

Yeah, the announcers were biased, but they stopped trying in the 2nd half.

I don't understand why the Jazz didn't sign Forrest to a regular NBA contract and ditch Oni. I think Forrest has shown more NBA talent than Oni has ever done. It was nice to see Hughes play better and Doka just was great. Brantley is very frustrating for sure but he had his moments. The one thing keeping Forrest from playing minutes in the NBA is his inconsistent Jump shot/3pt. He is a very good passer and rebounder for his position.

Because by doing so they get a good player whose salary doesn't count against the salary cap, earn less and saves a roster spot. If you can get NBA caliber players on two-ways, you do it. Sucks for the player but it's good for the team ( specially one in luxury tax hell). I expect the team to cut one more player with partially guaranteed money for those same reasons and bring a project on a two way.

1.8 steals per game as well in summer league so far. Looking like a keeper.
