The Official NBA Season Thread: Las Vegas Summer League

Evergreen post regarding what Minnesota should do

I would trade for versatile defensive players

Someone like Jared Vanderbilt would be a start

Maybe even roll the dice on a buy low vet like pat Beverly

In the draft, taking a guy like Walker kessler couldn’t hurt their big man rotation in terms of rim protection

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

I’m just playing tho.

They’ve been underachieving tho.

This was supposed to be a future “Finals” team.

It's just what we do

They missing 3 starters tonight

They were not ever mentioned as a Finals team coming into the year but they definitely traded a lot for Murray. They still have to make a few pieces fit better or finally trade Collins

 

[lawdog1]

bad loss by the clippers. after a strong first, no sense of urgency

Very confounding. They managed/played that game like they’re 1st in the West and not 6th. And they’ll probably lose to Miami tomorrow anyway. Fail. Fail everywhere.

69-66 at halftime IS 2022 Warriors basketball and you will like it.

Good effort from the clips tonight. Liked what I saw. Marathon, not a sprint.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Woulda been number 5 on Gianny. Of course they swallow the whistles. As he continues to just run into people and get the whistles.

Kings hung tough but yeah that one hurt

Fox didn't show out tonight, he was pretty unnoticeable

Poole Party going off while being guarded JUST like Steph

Allegedly

They have more talent on their roster than most teams in the league. There’s a major issue with one of their top guys though…

Porzingis is 2 years away from $250mm and a NTC of his own

Yeah, I've mentioned before through recent seasons I would love to have Trae's cast surrounding Luka

But no Trae slander from me on this topic

That wouldn't be wise

It’s only right the Wizards continue their traditions.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Make it 24 points

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Rudy Gobert is getting dragged

 

[B Sox]

If you took Luka and Ice Tray out of the equation and had to build a team with the talent on both rosters, how many Hawks players are you picking before you even get to the next Mavs player?

I’m thinking 7

 

[703 hwy]

Luka ain’t getting no “help” until they change their offensive style. If you’re a star Dallas is literally the last place you wanna go.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Rudy gets fried on the perimeter and Buddy can't make a layup

 

[T0INE]

You can't wear these and then get smacked by 25.

Between this and the regular season is "boring" comment Trae been wildin'

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Eh. They don't even need another on ball dominant All-Star. They just need legit anyone who knows how to dribble into the paint and isn't completely washed

Watching the Celtics acquire Derrick White and Malcom Brogdon for a pick a piece is depressing

Either of those dudes would be the type of guard you could put next to Luka and make the offense way more diverse

 

[finallyfamous]

You shouldn’t schedule the road team to be on the 2nd night of a b2b for an East/West game. Sucks for Raps fans

Totally agree. That's a brilliant point. Never thought of it like that.

 

[Arthur Shelby]

walker kessler

 

[B Sox]

It’s crazy how Stevens was able to go out and get not just one, but two connector types on offense that can also more than hold their own defensively in the backcourt. Without even having to touch the team’s core.
