How did your favorite rookie do in Summer League?
My boy Sarr dropped doodoo after doodoo, but I still say he shoulda gone #1
My team had one of the worst summer league games of all time. Let’s go Mavs
@@OliverGuiterman That Mavs team was pretty… we’ll say… empty? Just not a lot on that squad.
@@justinmanalo43 Yeah it was a rough offensive summer haha, but yeah I got him as 1 as well!
Man, I think Kelel ware should be definitely on the top. No one thought that man would put those sick numbers and playing regularly good.
@@juanignaciozimet9812 Maybe I just haven’t left my bubble enough haha, because I felt like most of us did! Which is awesome, he certainly looked great. I think the distinction is in the reaction to everything around him. He made some elite plays but it looked like he was almost remembering something someone told him each time. The guys on top of the list already have those habits in my mind. Regardless he looked great!
@@_AVC_ You mean like he wasn't too spontaneous? Mabye you´re right. Also, Im a heat fan so I mabye wont be too critic hahaha. But what surprised me is the way he undestrand his role in the court, how to do the simple task and how to contirbute on the needs of the team. Also It was said that he lack of score, and he prove em wrong.Then we will see If he can do the same things on the league, but what I see is that he has the caliver to be a great player.
@@juanignaciozimet9812 Absolutely! Yeah apparently Udonis Haslem been attached to his hip since day 1. He gon get brought up right haha.
Refreshing to see someone who actual watched games comment on rookies. Loved seeing the Rischacher love and context on how stats don't tell the story of how he looked quite nba ready like not great but clearly will be ready to contribute to a winning team.
@@humptydumpty1929 Well I didn’t watch all of em 😅 but enough to give some opinions haha. Wish I could watch em all! But yeah I really like Rischacher, might not be a superstar but a good player.
Really enjoy this content. I eat up summer league every year, and never seem to get full. Basketball games all day- never going to complain about that 😆
I love seeing how the new guys do and the ones busting their tails trying to make a team. I always find a few guys that aren’t on a regular season roster and I just root for them to keep playing well and end up making a team.
Good in depth takes and I know you watched more than me and probably 99% of people. Like you said the stats don’t necessarily matter, just mainly seeing their skill sets and seeing how that can translate. Some guys just pad their stats but really can’t fit in as a role player on a team, so the stats are empty.
@@user-sj5lk6qr6q Yeah SL is just such an odd space. They practice for like maybe 2 weeks (some dudes have been in the country for like a month at most), and they are all playing for themselves so it just gets gross fast haha.
For someone like me working for a team it’s honestly more beneficial just to get some new film on dudes to be like “hey make this read here.” or “Hey we need to build our counters here.” Etc.
Ware should be tops. Made first team and his team won the tourney. Played well in high leverage situations.
@@gggg-ob8gf I don’t really care about wins in SL, the distinction for me was just the processing of the game. I felt the top guys knew exactly where they wanted to be at all times. Ware seemed like he was making the right decisions (90% of the time) but kinda forcing himself to do so. That’s still really really good and honestly it’s probably mostly an age thing.
Gotta love that you have Minecraft on your hotbar. I subscribed
@@sgrey9181 If only you knew the things I’ve built in that game… 😂. Wish I had more time to play but this fall me and the fellas are locking in and playing again!
@@_AVC_ lessgoooo love to hear it
@@sgrey9181 Hoop during the day, craft at night 😂
Cody Williams did have one very good game of hitting 3's, mid shots and dunking. He has the skills. Collier was like a bull. He could get into the paint and also hit 3's. Filipowski improved with each game played. His first game in SLC he looked terrible and looked lost. His defense also improved each game also. He did block some shots, hit 3's, mid range shots and dunks. His rebounding also improved with each game. He was figuring it out. I think you underestimated the three Jazz players. But of course how you rated the players means nothing because the way each player develops will come out in their play during the season. But I also do agree with some of your ratings. I think some of the poor play by Filipowski at first was because of all the personal crap that was stated from individuals of why his stock dropped.
@@silverwolf1967 Oh yeah the whole rating system was purely summer league oriented haha. That’s why I wanted to be pretty clear on that.
Agree with @SilverWolf
Jazz rookies, just like I thought when they drafted them won the draft.
Williams has all the tools, and though his game does look like he isn’t aggressive, he is so smooth and he just doesn’t force shots to bump up his stats. He can score from all three levels, even finished with his left hand. His shooting was 55% and 38% 3s. To me the game looked easy for him. I was high on him before the draft. I rated Sheppard, Castle and Williams in my top 3 and nothing changed that from what I saw in summer league.
Collier was up and down. Like you saw, but his vision and passing was better than I expected. So i am not super high on him but i see him lasting in the league as at least a backup PG. he was more engaged on D than I expected. Still think he was a steal at 29 and I thought he was a top 20 talent easily.
Also on Collier at USC, he has no shooting around him so that didn’t open up his game. He also was injured and once he recovered his shooting was significantly better. So I think those 2 factors maybe skewed us against him at USC without looking specifically at what was going on.
Flip impressed me as well. Like silver wolf said his confidence improved and the game seemed to slow down for him last few games of summer league. Not having watched him in college I really was impressed with all his tools. I couldn’t figure out what part of his game scared off teams. I think his floor is high and I didn’t realize his handle was that good as well as his handle.
Overall I like your takes- I was just thinking maybe you didn’t watch much of the Jazz games so that’s why you rated them like that.
@@user-sj5lk6qr6q Aye I appreciate the confidence in the young dudes! They will certainly be some projects but I trust in Utah to give em a good shot!
I'm tryna make this draft class in 2k, this video made me think I have probably messed up some of the overalls. I'm not tryna waste your time so just to be quick; out of these, which player(s) jump out as needing to be adjusted? (bearing in mind overall and potential are separate values):
76: Sarr, Castle, Risacher, Clingan, Shannon Jr., Topic, Carter
75: Sheppard, Knecht, Dillingham, Buzelis, Williams, Ware, McCain, Holland
74: Carrington, Holmes, Da Silva, Salaun, Walter, Edey
73: George, Collier, Missi, Dunn, Dadiet, Furphy, Smith, Filipowski
72: McCullar Jr., Kolek, Spencer, Larsson, Tyson, Scheierman, Nunez
71 or Lower: Jones, Mitchell, Ighodaro, Bona, Klintman, Simpson, Reeves, Christie, Djurisic, Ingram, Shead, Wells, Watson, Johnson, Mogbo, Ajinca, Newton, Chomche, Post, Freeman, James Jr., Hukporti
@@jamiew904 Honestly not necessarily any of them seem that wild to me. I think 2k typically makes the too rookie like 79-80. But with this being a weak class I can see it being lower.
@@_AVC_ I looked back at the older draft classes on the game and they have Chet and James Wiseman as 77s coming into the league, I don't think anyone in this draft class has been as hyped/as good as either of them were viewed to be going into their respective drafts so I started them at 76
@@jamiew904 Yeah I see no reason that logic doesn’t apply.
memphis front office knows how to draft consistently getting good core picks exciting because these pick all look pretty promising as well
@@joshcurl4544 I’m not sure I understand this, can you explain more?
@@_AVC_ He's just saying they drafted really well this year cause we got edey, jaylen wells and cam spencer who have all been really good
@@ConorMeehan-yw6wo Ahhhh thank you for the translation haha! Yeah I hope this class works out for them! Certainly got some hopeful immediate impact guys.
Sheppard didn't hit his 3s because those shots kept getting blocked. He'll need to work on getting separation out on the perimeter.
@@NoahLinden Yeah I think his ability as a lead guard was the main question for me and most other scouts offensively. Not saying he can’t get there but I certainly view him as more of a combo right now. Which is fine I should say it’s just important to under that for development purposes.
Where did you get the data?
@@afuturemodern I just set up a macro to scrape the NBA box scores!
Do u think that the Miami Heat should give Josh Christopher like a minimum contract because he was SO GOOD in summer league??? They also kinda need a backup guard??? He also got Summer League Finals MVP... btw love the content!!!❤
@@lizaliza9649 Ayyye I appreciate the love! That’s a tough question. Josh Christopher has never been a talent question it’s been a him question. The Heat are one of only a couple teams that could probably keep him in line (presuming he can’t just do it himself), so there is probably some justification there. But I haven’t been around him so I don’t know. Just wanted to make it clear the whole league knows he is very talented haha.
DaSilva surfer was definately cookin, hopefully he can break the rotation on a talented Magic squad.
I think his maturity will help him out quite a bit actually. It’s certainly a logjam at that spot but aye the shooting needs to be out there haha. I’m watching for that boy Jett as well now.
@@_AVC_ Spot on, we are of the same mind. Don't think shooting will be a weakness this year.
@@EasyRidingWithUncleDoc Hopefully not. Unfortunately if your top 3 options aren’t great shooters (hopefully Suggs turned the corner already), you’ll always be playing catch up.
@@_AVC_ You really are a sicko lmao. Suggs shot near %40 on 5 attempts. KCP is %40 on 5 attempts. AB near 40 on low attempts. Jett and Caleb are snipers. JI is going to have a YEAR! Paulo will improve. Gary Harris and Franz should both have bounce back shooting years. I would not leave em open.
@@EasyRidingWithUncleDoc I’ll be very curious to see it unfold! Honestly pretty shocked to see a lead guard trade never unfolded this offseason.
I know you apologized to us jazz fans but I would argue that you ranked each guy 1 rank too low (and this isn't hate on my end, still love content). Both Collier and Filipowski had games where they looked great and other's where they didn't but I believe they showed flashes of what the Jazz wanted them to do. 1) Flip showed that he could help facilitate an offense pretty well in his last summer league game and while he doesn't play above the rim he was flashing the Kelly Olynyk game play a bit. 2) Collier showed in the first number of games that he could get into the paint whenever he wanted and he was also pretty good at protecting the ball while distributing it. In Las Vegas he didn't do as well, but his aggressiveness with passes really changed between SLC and Vegas leagues and I think that may have been coaches advising him to push the limits. 3) Williams definitely showed a bit of disinterest in game 1 of Vegas SL but I didn't see that the rest of the time there. He showed a lot of play making while being engaged offensively. Defensively i could see some complaints but honestly think you are putting a little too much into what he showed game one of Vegas SL.
@@Jeremyjensenbyu I totally respect the take! And I appreciate the explanation behind it. I could totally be talked into all of that so I don’t think you are off base at all.
I do think they have an interesting rookie class at the end of the day. It’s a big time “needs development” class, but I totally trust Utah to make it happen!
Did you see matis play defense
@@mariowilliams9206 You talking about some of those pretty crazy blocked shots? Haha
Theres a chance i made that tierlist template lol
@@jamiew904 Then there is a chance you have benefited the channel 👀. A potential thank you for your service 🫡.
You didn't watch Pelle Larsson play
@@afuturemodern I didn’t watch every game that’s for sure 😅, anything else?
@@_AVC_ he hit a game winner for the championship. that's had moments at minimum
@@afuturemodern I suppose that is in fact a moment isn’t it 😂
1:30 I thought you wanted the relations to be civil between the comments and subscribers
@@_generation_youth_x28 😂 that’s why I told em to go to the mirror. Keeps it out of the comments haha.
And I like to use the word dummy.
when did ron holland looked lost ? smh
@@SiriusBlack-wh6uh I guess I don’t know how to answer this completely without some film to show haha.
I think overall there was a combination of a poorly organized SL team and his own lack of knowledge being shown at points. Especially in the first couple games. Definitely started to find his footing though!
I think the beginning of the bulls games was the only time you could say he looked lost. Other than that, I think he was just creating his own looks and forcing it a little in the first few games. But game 5, I thought he looked as good as any other rookie I saw. It seemed like the coach finally realized his best place is not tucked away the corner that last game.
@@austinrag9328 Oh I know what you mean haha! Yeah it certainly didn’t help having him as an off ball option. Unfortunately that’s probably the role he has on that team 😅.
