Josh Jackson is out today. Good. 1 - he's sucked. 2 - we need to give more minutes and touches to Bridges.
Offensively inefficient? Forced things? Yes. Sucked? No. He still did all the other things including some monster blocks.
He sucked. Call it like it is. He looked awful offensively. Forced shots, bad turnovers, ball stopper.

He played well defensively but you expect much more out of him this year
If you only want to look at one side of the ball, sure.
It’s Summer League. Look at the competition he’s gone up against . He’s by far the most experienced player out there. He should be dominant on both ends of the ball. At the very least it’s fair to expect him to not look totally lost on offense.

Bone, you’re being a homer.
Relax. He hasn't been terrible and sucked. Offensively, he hasn't looked great at all. Defensively, he's looked pretty good. People love to hate on JJ based on summer league.

Homer? Nah. Just realistic and not 100% negative. It might be a reading comprehension issue 8-) :

He's likely also looking to work on certain areas he usually doesn't work on during Summer League. This isn't Bo Outlaw trying to get 50 points against less competition.

That's definitely part of it. He said before SL started that he was looking to dominate. Well, he found out he isn't as good as he thought he was and he has work to do.

Dragan has been solid on the glass , also it's a minor thing but I've seen him dipping his shoulder into defenders (get off me) when they try to crowd him

Bender with a nice Dirk-esque fadeaway from about 18ft out. I've BEEN saying we should be getting him looks in the post.

Illicit work steam update: Streaming quality is quite poor. Lots of buffering. Lots of starting and stopping. Lots of blurriness. I feel like they are on to me and are throttling my connection...

I will soldier on.

George King looks good today. Drilled a 3, hit a couple floaters, just threw one down.

It was obvious when King blocked that bigger guy in his first game but he is an athlete

I don't like that Okobo hasn't been playing a lot. Wanted to see him get a lot of minutes. I like what Shaq's been doing and want to see him get better. But I was excited about Okobo.

Someone on Twitter said he went to the locker room with an injury
