I had to watch on my phone at my sons practice. Couldn’t pay close attention, like I normally would. After reading some of the comments here I think I need to go back and watch more closely because I did not come away thinking Ish was an NBA ready player like most here. I think he looked outmatched honestly. Even for summer league level. Not saying he didn’t do some good things. I just didn’t get the same impression as the consensus is all.
I did however think Sergio belongs. He has a ways to go with his handle but the passing/size/composure was impressive. His form looks good, even if some shots didn’t go down. I thought he was active on defense. I actually think that side was what surprised me most. I guess I assumed he’d be a turnstile there.
Poulakidas lets it fly. When they go in, he looks amazing. When they don’t, he looks like JAG. His handle looks improved. Almost Guard like and less Wing like.
My Nemby take wasn’t changed after this one. I don’t think he’s long for the roster. I get that SL is when you need to try things you’re not good at. He was shot hunting more, which is fine. He’s just simply not good enough. At least right now. With his size, he needs to really show out and he isn’t really capable…
Lawal has a long way to go but I like the bet on a freak athlete that hasn’t played much basketball. Potential. That’s all he is right now.
Rez is a grown man. Dawg. He will help Year 1. Which is a great compliment for a #9 pick rookie. It’s more rare than you think. He’ll be a fan favorite for a long time!
Anyway, those are my takeaways/overreactions to Game 1 of SL.
