Young boys really rock with Playoff P like that

Go back and watch those g league games. The difficulty and variety of shots he hit was ridiculous for anybody let alone a 7'3er. One thing I've learned is that when a prospect shows you his ceiling, it's a good idea to pay attention

There was way more structure in his France and G league games. SL is a **** show with everyone fighting for a roster spot or rotation spot.

Still, with “greatest prospect ever” type narratives, that was def a horrible debut.

Here they go folks jumping off the deep end in summer league

I’d be upset if Jordan Walsh puts up numbers like that for the Cs tomorrow, and he’s far from the best prospect ever

Doris getting punished later

 

[addict4sneakers]

Not blaming structure. Branam is a player. Champagne been great. And you got to play against the worst summer league team in the league. Wemby was just trash today. It happens.

JHS look like a Jalen Hurts clone

That's on whoever believed that. Bron and Kareem was always that. Vic shoulda been talked about like a young KG. His defense will be there but it might take a season 1/2 for his offense to come together.

If wemby can’t get me 19 points TONIGHT he not the best prospect ever

Yeah he ain’t nothing special. Chet better

For the record even if he had a good game today, I would’ve said the exact same thing. For me, it’s more about media coverage rather than actual play.

Aren't they in their 2nd year?

Lakers whiffed on their pick. Oh well.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Aren't they in their 2nd year?

They are but you see the difference between a 2nd year guy in this setting. Branam going to be their 6th or 7th man. I’m just not blaming them for wemby stinking it up.

Again I expect him to be better so I’m just getting this hot take off out of fairness to everyone else.

 

[T0INE]

Same energy.

My biggest takeaway from SL tonight is that between Doris and Marc and Horny Ime nastiness gonna be running rampant in Vegas tonight.
