There is no way I would call out of work or out of a game/match whatever you wanna call it becuz of "Foot discomfort"!!!

 

I'd make em say I have a sprained ankle or a fractured bone in my foot. No way would I put "Foot discomfort" on an injury report

 

RED FLAGS

 

Doubt it was left to him to decide any of that, of course... right?

What's more troubling, though, is that you know they'd list something more specific if they knew what it was. Which means, one would suppose, they keep thinking it's nothing and it will resolve itself.... but it's been a week (at least).

Can't help but wonder... otoh... if this situation contributed to the thought to go ahead and sign Tyrese... ie, that their suspicions at this point are that it could be more serious.

Oh yea it's definitely the Hawks who are making him sit out. From what I heard AJ really wanted to play

Martin showing some playmaking potential.

Clemons is trash

He's fine as a microwave style scorer but he is NOT a point guard. 

[Peoriabird]

Too bad Etienne can't run point because if he could, there would be no question who would be my 2nd 2 way player for the Hawks

If you can shoot and scrap on defense, there is a place for you in the NBA

Had to peep highlights and those two lefty dishes to Kaba.. or at least the first one to Kaba was sick. Second one I think was Kaba on the receiving end.

Ya, Martin is gonna earn a few minutes perhaps.

Ok but he’s too compact within his own frame and plays too low to the ground for his size and speed for the pro game.

Just my on that one. He grinds tho you can’t hate on that. Love grinders.

Maybe but I would rather have him on my bench than TLC

I agree and said the same thing in the pod. I would rather him over TLC as the 14th man. 

Go Hawks! The final Summer League game review: Hawks v. Cavs. Brown Jr, Martin, Cooper, and Etienne review.

Indeed.

He was injured during the game.  the 2nd to last play of the 1st half

But.....He came into SL with the injured thumb though and wee saw how JC looked with an injured finger in the playoffs - no grip for control or touch for shooting.  

Cooper had a very rough SL, and he may or may not stick in the NBA, but I'm not going to all out discount what he did in the GL last year in favor for 4 SL games.

[NBASupes]

I didn't realize Martin got signed earlier today

Disappointed with Griffin not playing one SL game

Can you imagine if he had played with the 'foot discomfort' and looked as trashy as Cooper with his injured thumb...............

#FireTravisField

I wanted to see the kid play, but I'm not gonna get an aneurysm over it...YET.

If he's not ready to go for training camp.... then
