The Official NBA Season Thread: Las Vegas Summer League | USA VS South Sudan at 3 ET on Fox

I dont like embiid playing for us when he had other options. What kinda **** is that. This country has gone so soft.


Also finally got around to watching Lukas euroleague highlights. Unless he suddenly learns or remembers how to play another position, he may have peaked already.

What makes someone american or not? He’s spent half his life living in the US. It’s a personal choice idk why anyone would be affected over that choice.

No way Mavs will go into season starting two rookies if they’re serious.

 

[dman14]

both teams trying to put chips on their shoulder

do you mean derrick lively being one of them? powell over lively?
might as well just get this over with and begin clean with lively from the get go
they're missing a legit big and i think that's a huge issue for them

 

[MakeNTGreatAgain]

Joel Embiid isn't even close to being American. The most American thing about him is that he's a rich black man with a white wife. Very cowardly stuff

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Lol if the Wolves end up losing

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

So now y’all wanna say the Mavs roster is trash

Can’t keep up with the narratives but when I said they weren’t good pre Kyrie a lot of you gave me backlash

Interesting

Gonna be a nice learning curve for Prosper and Lively. Idk if the Mavs can afford to start off slow while the rookies get dominated by stronger and better bigs. Foul trouble will continue being a problem too.

This is a desperate team who’s thin. Most teams that are trying to win can’t afford to start two rookies.

Maybe start Maxi instead but that’s not making a huge difference those guys are gonna have to play a significant role here

Re: Embiid.

Think we gotta start calling white people either European American or if they want to be specific to a country like Irish American. Don’t get why everyone else has to use that qualifier except them. You got citizenship we’re either all “American” or everyone gotta hyphenate. Only people that should get the choice are Native Americans. It’s divisive.

Mavs did as well as they probably could've to re-make the team this summer, but still might not be enough to get into the playoffs.

Mavs did about as well they could have to improve the team and I still don't trust them to crack the top eight, much less the top six.

Ant is pre-enrolled Tatum, so sorry.

Nevermind. Basketball thread.

 

[N41D]

That Mavs roster wasn’t ever a one-year turnaround.

Not sure why anyone is or would be surprised.

They’re gonna play the hell outta the rookies because they don’t seem like they’re looking around desperate to win this year.

There are some rebuttals you can just keep to yourself when they’re not good arguments
