The Official NBA Season Thread: Las Vegas Summer League

[lawdog1]

They announced the rosters months in advance after Kawhi had his best rs in years. He also said he was only cleared to play 2 weeks before. He wasted everybody’s time.

If you say so.

 

[ballinsam23]

He just re upped for 3/$150Ms

Ooffff. Yea they ****** up. Coulda used that money on massage chairs at Intuit

 

[JMB10215]

I think I know who the USA have to go get to replace Kawhi

 

[freeze]

Time to activate kyrie. Enough is enough

 

[Bert.]

Glad I got to see kawhi in Toronto and beat GSW

only time he was at full strength

Just retire bro

his knees just as bad as kawhi

Knee swelling keeps Bronny out of Lakers lineup

While Bronny James was held out of Sunday's summer league game because of knee swelling, the Lakers are hopeful the rookie can play Wednesday.

Turning on the Olympic team is nasty.

Acting like the Knicks and Celtics are rivals or something

How did you get anything Knick related from that post.

Everyone was calling for Jaylen Brown too. That Celtic team doesnt deserve to have 4 potential Olympians

 

[B Sox]

Time to activate kyrie. Enough is enough

Not putting that bum on the team man

 

[moe200069]

why would Kawhi retire and pass up 150ms? Have y’all gone mad? Did y’all forget nba contracts are guaranteed

Kawhi is about his bread.. aint no way he’s passing up free money.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Kawhi stayed on the team long enough for team photos and then dipped. SMFH.

 

[elpablo21]

I don't think Kawhi should retire if he still wants to keep playing but I gotta think the mental strain having to deal with this every single season can be alot for athletes when your body keeps telling you to sit yo *** down

EYE don't know where he is mentally but I wouldn't blame bro if did hang it up in the next year or two.

or he could be like Lonzo and never want to give up idk

 

[pmatic]

Derrick White is the smart play because he can play defense and won't complain if he doesn't play.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

He's a human with sense. He is doing what any of us would do. If someone is stupid enough to keep paying us, we are taking it.

It isn't a morality thing.

 

[elpablo21]

Ice Trae getting snubbed again

 

[ballinsam23]

I woulda gave it to Cooper Flagg. Something exciting.

 

[B Sox]

What evidence is there that he doesn’t actually WANT to play?

NBA Finals MVP doesn't deserve to be an Olympic replacement. Makes a ton of sense.

 

[CHAOSE57]

Derrick White is a good replacement, need players who’ll do the dirty work.

 

[nikekid6]

More 18 representation. I’ll allow it

 

[pmatic]

Ty Lue is an assistant coach, probably saw Kawhi hobbling and was like nah.

4 Olympians. Ya'll better win atleast 3 in a row. NoExcuses for a decade.

Man it didn't feel like that long when he did this to the Bucks:

One of the greatest playoff runs of all time.

If he cares about his long term health, he probably should hand it up sooner rather than later.

 

[B Sox]

Rewarding elite team basketball

Jaylen should be on their too if we’re keeping it a buck.

Man stop. Bro been doing this **** since 2017. Ive seen Kobe hit free throws with a torn achilles. Its the olympics for petes sake its not like he had to go super hard. Just call a spade a spade. I cant judge another mans pain tolerance but he obviously isn't dying to play. He's one of those cats that have to be 100% healthy or he cant go.

 

[Moheezy]

Derrick White is the type of dude to bust up his teeth for a loose ball lol. He hits open shots on the regular and has great defense. Im sure the stars on the U.S. squad would be happy to have him on there.

As the 12th man, White makes sense. Not sure if he will get much burn which is also alright.
