My Summer League Thoughts

[showtime]

Brown, Best talent on the floor. Nader, good player, can play in NBA. Mickey, Young, Hunter, Bentel total waste of space. Yabusele, could be a player in 2 to 3 years.  Rozier, I would use as a piece in a big trade, not close to the player Smart is, and I don't exactly love Smart!!

I agree with most of this .....it's the hard truth .   ......Rozier is a great little player , good offense , but he is not in Smarts league when it comes to defense. 

Guys like Butler , Wade , Rondo, Westbrooke , Harden , Wall , Irving, are ruthless ......Smart gives each a very hard time .   Rozier has a long long way to go to be a defensive stopper like Smart , AB or Crowder.

I think Rozier is trade bait .....like you .....I m thinking only Nader and Brown are worth keeping.

I see both rozier and smart as not great decision makers. Neither looks like a real pg. smart killed a bunch of man advantage breaks by pulling the ball out because he couldn't make decisions. This could be his lack of ball handling/ instincts. I dunno. I think smart plays very hard but is a low iq player. If have to see Rozier more.

You shouldn't think of a "Real PG" as an important term anymore. Very few guys have Rondo/CP3 level court vision and ability to run an offense. It's important in today's game to have multiple guys who can play both on and off the ball, and so far both Terry and Marcus have shown an ability to do that.

We don't need a "true PG".

True.  Are either of the PGs in the last NBA Finals "true PGs"?  I really like the idea of having one, probably more than most, but they aren't required anymore.

When's that? While he was scoring 25 points and grabbing 9 rebounds tonight? Or yesterday when he was scoring 2o points, grabbing 10 rebounds and 4 steals?

Nope he's a bust. Fire DA. Bad body language. Too smart.  Should have taken Bender. Am I missing anything? 

Actual most critics were saying we should have taken Dunn due to his early play in summer league.

Which is BS, because nobody knows how a draft will turn out until a few years down the road.
