Speaking of, I'm not really sure what kind of team China sent, but they got crushed by 39 by the Heat Summer team.  The China starters scored just 23 points.  Which was matched by Tyler Herro.
China only scored 25 pints int he 1st half.

2 earthquakes, the one I felt on my couch while watching the Thomas Mack scoreboard sway over the summer league court and Kawhi to the Clips + PGIII for Gallo, SGA, mad picks.

RJ has a lot of work to do. Our sophomores all look ready to make the jump. Ignas will be ok.

My guess is that some of JaVale McGee, JoNo, and Jerebko now head to the Clips.

What will the Raptors do now?

Being the Knicks is looking better and better.

Zion needs to drop his freshman 15.

Very interesting.
Kawhi & PG are two of the best two-way players in the League.
(other candidates LeBJ, who doesn't work much on D anymore, Anti-Greek, who can't shoot 3's, and whoever rounds out the Top 5).  Great role for Pa Bev, where he gets to defend like mad and spot up, and those two can initiate the offense mostly.  Montrezl another high energy guy.  I'd like playing with Pa Bev and Montrezl on my team.

I really need to find a site that has up-to-date rosters and depth charts.  Anyone know where?  ESPN won't get around to fixing their depth charts for months.  Don't they have interns?  Not to hard to move a player from one team to another once a trade goes down.


Kawhi sure screwed over TOR.  They did get a title out of him.  But now Green has bolted for LAL.  And they have an aging Ma Gasol (34) and Lowry (33).  Siakim and OG are young and solid.
I guess they make one more run with that crew (+ Ibaka who just seems old).  But I assume they'll also listen to trades for Lowry, Ma Gasoil, Ibaka.

Not sure who LAC have:
Pa Bev -
Shamet - Lou Will
PG 13 - 
KY Jelly - JaMike Green
Montrezl - Zubac 

Need to fill in the bench.
Too bad they lost Shai who was interesting, but gotta give to get.
Hadn't thought of it before, but LouW is a perfect mentor for Shamet.

What's OKC's plan?  Will they trade Westbrook for yute and a rebuild?  All those picks aren't going to help Westbrook win.  Shai - Westbrook - Adams - lotta future draft picks ...

I was preparing to rant about Kawhi to the Lakers.

Nice surprise and what a haul OKC got for George.

Fuck the Lakers!

The Clippers! It's going to be an excellent year for the NBA.

It's a shame Wilkes isn't playing in the summer league; I wanted to take a look at the guy. Was also wondering if Robinson would be expanding his game at all. So far, no hint at that, but it's early.

(they can't get Westbrook, can they?)

Not enough cap space right now. They can get fancy and maybe make a deal later, but difficult to pull off this season.

KY Jelly - JaMike Green
Montrezl - Zubac 


Who is KY Jelly? This is one of those nicknames that is too much.

They have Thornwell and Jerome Robinson are going to have a shot to get some minutes; Robinson was a surprise lottery pick just a year ago.

McGruder is the back-up 3. Harkless is the starting 4.

They haven't signed J-Mike (that's his actual nickname, by the way); Dallas should really make him an offer.  Clips need another big and you have to assume Boogie will be on their radar for the roomie exception, although they may prefer J-Mike. Melo is going to play for one of the LA teams, although I figure the Lakers have more minutes for him.

They're going to do well on the buyout market - Korver as much a risk to go there as the Lakers.

Anyhow, they're a legit choice as championship faves right now.

Watch Houston trade Iman Shumpert and a first rounder for Iguodala. That would place the Rockets ahead of the Lakers and Sixers and behind the Clippers in the pecking order, I'd say.

C'mon, pretty obvious Kawhi is on the Clips and starting ...

I didn't realize that's where Hark ended up.
Solid role player.
They really need a backup PG, as Pa Bev gets dinged up.
And they could use someone to help run the 2nd unit as well.
