The Official NBA Season Thread: Las Vegas Summer League

What a great game, Wolves Defense since Kat went down has been on an upward trajectory
Anderson & Prince at their rates + Rivers now all turning out to be great signings

Why are they not just forcefeeding Ayton? He’s doing whatever he wants when he actually gets the ball.
 
PHX goes scoreless possession after scoreless possession without even giving Ayton a touch and then they finally do and he immediately hits a jumper.

I get that Ayton isn’t exactly an offensive hub, but when you’re having issues scoring all night, you have to get him more touches.
 
Wolves should roll with the team they got this year next year as well. Add a 2/3 off the bench to replace Rivers/Nowell. They’ll stay under the luxury tax for 23-24.

Go into 2024-25 as luxury tax team. Then in 2025 off-season year tear it all down. Rudy last year of his deal. Move off DLo, move off KAT and build around Ant and Jaden.

It is the Most logical move.

since 11/13 DLo is .488/.412/.885 19.2/6.4
since 11/13 Ant is .466/.385/.791. 25.9/6.3/4.8

Team has had 2 horrible streaks lost 6 of 7 in the beginning of November and 5 straight in the last 10 days of 2022. 12-5 in 2023.
 
That loss (along with like 4-6 others) is on Kerr. He keeps trying to play Jordan Poole at the end of games for “confidence building” reasons so that way hes ready for the playoffs and can be out there during crunch time.

It’s just a terrible strategy. Jordan Poole is and always will be a wildcard sort of guy. Steph already is that you can’t have two of them out there at the same time in the last 5 mins of a close game. And of course Steph levels better so Pooles gotta sit and you need the steady hand and defense of Looney out there. Even Dizzchenzo solid steady play style would help them win these close games they keep failing at.

Steph
Klay
Wiggins
Dray
Looney

That’s gotta be the lineup you go with to win games. This round robbin of others is just not it.
