If he plays like crap, criticism and concern is justified. Just like when he plays well he gets my praise.

His defense was passable - 1 block, 1 steal as well.

It’s all just summer league, but vision and playmaking should translate regardless as long as he isn’t lead footed like that Marshall kid out of UNC. We had quite the group of posters calling Trae a bust (lol) after a few summer league games. Which is absolutely ridiculous.

Anybody know if any other teammates are out in Vegas supporting the Youngins?

Ayton just wants to shoot jumpers!

Thanks for that. Trae’s shot selection is TERRIBLE. That is a fixable problem fortunately. He has to get used to not having to play hero ball to win games. He also needs to show more patience off screens and more trust in his teammates.  Another thing I noticed is he’s going to have to tighten his handles. The vision and passing touch is there. That’ll translate to the real games.

Shut down Collins for the rest of the SL please. He's head and shoulders above everyone else

I didn't watch much last year, did he work on his 3 ball this off-season? I didn't think he could shoot that consistently.

Collins isn't a center

He can play both..Moose is still here too..

Nice game overall today. Well, anything was just about nicer than the last three but it made me smile a little which I hadn’t done at all the past games. Trae was on point again with the dimes..the kid is Nash ok cuz F Curry he can’t pass like that I’m sticking to it. 

 

Collins was a beast and mixed it up nicely with Mitch Rob who was skinnier than I thought. Why do him and Diamond Stone look like fatties in pics on the net and skinny as hell in real life?

 

Has @Sothron come around and embraced Trae yet? lol ? 

 

ps Was nice to see Nique. ?

JJJ is already significantly better than the other rookies.

Only disagreement I’ve got is I’d describe his shot selection as TURRIBLE.

Also, John Collins has expanded his game a freaking ton since last year.  He did not have that ability to dribble drive from the perimeter last year.  He's legit!

And yet some people dont want him on the team

I could of sworn there was a thread talking about packaging him with Dennis in a trade to Orlando.
