Summer League Notes And Discussion

How amazing are the food/meals the organization provides for players? Sounds stupid but this is one of the many, many things I would look to have at an elite level.

Lol. Yes, I go to the neighborhood courts all the time. I'm sure I'm maximizing my skills development, because, you know, pro coaches are there. I have three of them chasing balls, throwing to me in different spots, providing a little defense, etc. There are also cameras set up so I can then evaluate my performance after practice or before I begin the next day, look at my shooting angle, footwork, etc.

And my best friend, Roger, has helped me set up my routine. He's played some college ball, so I'm sure he's more than adequate. Won't be long, I'm sure, before I'm invited to a training camp. I'm hoping Jazz, but would settle for Suns.

I'll bet this is exactly what Hayward did last summer. Bryant was just his chauffeur, just made sure he woke up every morning. Picked him up in the SUV, with his morning protein shake in hand. They went to any old court where Gordon was dropped off to just shoot by himself.

The video of Haywood training on "any old court" is on youtube:

God, Lonzo and Kuzma are so great together. Lonzo is going to be a special talent.

I probably should have had him #1 overall.
 
Let's see him try to defend Westbrook, Wall and the rest of the great NBA point guards, and have these studs in his face as he tries to run an offense first.

Don't get me wrong, I think he'll be really good. But people anoint these players far too prematurely.

That's why they got KCP.
 
I don't see people disrupting Lonzo's playmaking ability. He is too big and calm. He doesnt need to dribble the air out to make a play.
