This stood out:

The NBA TV telecast was saying that Dennis Schröder is literally sleeping in the Hawks’ facilities. SLEEPING IN THE GYM! Your jumpshot thanks you, Dennis. I love this guy.

Good to hear. In his dreams he's like "I'm better than Teague, let alone Mack!" Wakes up immediately and starts doing drills.

Gotta love the Summer League telecasts. It's one of the few places you'll hear candid criticism of players. Rick Kamla: "So do you think Boogie Cousins is ready to step into that leadership role the Kings have been waiting for?" Derek Harper: "No, I don't."

My favorite part of game 2 telecast is when Mateen Cleaves said ride the Payne Train  Choo Choo !!!

• Dennis had one drive to the basket that ended with a Rondo-like fake layup and spin to find an open man behind the three-point line. You should’ve heard Mateen Cleaves screaming on NBA TV. (On second thought, if you want to break your ear drums, just listen to a Ron Artest rap album) Simply an astounding move from the ever-so-confident Dennis Schröder.

 

I remember the crowd was actually pretty impressed with this move too.  Love the confidence.

Do we have a game on TV tommorrow? Haven't had the chance to see this new and improved Schröder.

Yeah but the thing is, the telecast didn't say that. They said he was "all but sleeping the the practice facilities" or something to that effect. It was a clear hyperbole and this was actually announced in the first and second game.

I mean I get the message, but what this guy wrote is not true. He should learn how to use the word literally or avoid it.

Yeah this is a case where the word literally is literally used wrong.

Thanks for the clarification.

Paints a pretty positive future for our Hawks.  Don't remember getting such good ink from them.

Edy is already better than Bebe also.

[Gray Mule]

This is just wrong.  We're not supposed to hear anything positive

about the Hawks this summer.

Except wen it comes to the top prospects like Wiggins and Parker!  Keep saying great things about Wiggins even though he has been pretty bad!
