Nesmith is all effort, but he's got terrible lateral quickness.

The simplest change of direction has him reeling.

Langford should be very noticeable in a game like this.  Instead he's a non-factor.
Hard to look good when the guards are taking all the shots.

He was running point to start game.

Juhann Begarin looks pretty comfortable out there for an 18 year old.

Yeah, but he's a shooting guard. They should make him focus on being one.

It would help if he could get by the guy guarding him.  Middle first round draft pick with a couple of years NBA experience should at least be able to do that in a summer league game.

I have no idea why he was running point

couple of years on the bench does nothing for on court prowess

Wish they would just cut Edwards now. He’s useless.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Langford can't hold on to the ball when driving.

Not a good sign for a slasher who can't shoot.

I wonder if his previous hand injury affected his handles.

Personally I'd send him home because all he's doing is taking shots away from the other guys, but I suppose the new coaching staff wants to take a long look at him to see if he's salavagable.  Obvious answer is he's not.

Frustrating to watch Jalen Johnson and think we just gave away 2 1st rounder the last 2 years.

Jaylen Johnson looks good. 6’9” stretch 4.... 20Pts and 10 Reb. Great pick by Atlanta at #20 overall.
