Thanks, Indy. You can't eyeroll yourself. But in INF's defense he's laid off it in recent times.

I've heard he has been moonlighting as an agent. I even heard that Durant to the Warriors was a Dunn deal!

Needs to add a few more lbs. But not a bad start.

Buddy Hield had a rough shooting debut, 5-20.

Christian Wood has been playing very well for the Sixers summer league team in Utah.

Someone needs to make a Mr. Yuk eyeroll for INF to use.

Yup. Watched the game. He was off and pressing. Got to his spots tho.

Ha! A custom eye roll, that would be good.

Anybody else excited to see the young Suns? 1 pm PT on NBATV. I think I'll start a game day thread.

Not technically true. You have to have cable or satellite and some kind of package with them to have ESPN.

I don't have any of that and I got to the game. I went to NBATV and followed a link to ESPN. Maybe because I had league pas last year.

Simmons nearly went for a trip-doub vs LA last night. only shot 3 of 8 but was looking to facilitate with 8pts,8asst, and 10rebs.

Brandon Ingram struggled. 3-12 from the floor. The body difference between the two was striking. Simmons just looked so much more bigger and stronger.

Didn't Philly just recently give away a player who was balanced in this way, in MCW?

I thought they did well to trade MCW when they did. Infact, I'd argue they got very good value (Lakers lotto pick) for player who has become a marginal starter at best. Admittedly, I was never a big MCW fan. Even when he was playing well.

I had no idea Damien Inglis got waived last Wednesday. He's on the Pelicans summer league roster now. Still love that guy's potential and would have jumped at the chance to add him to my team. Hope he gets an opportunity to develop.

At what point do we start taking Thon Maker more seriously. I liked him as a prospect, but man he's been strong so far.

Summer league impressions so far:

Ben Simmons is going to be a beast. He's going to be a superstar if the work ethic is there and he's looked fully engaged so far.
Kris Dunn has impressed so far
Maker showing glimpses of Greek Freak.

Disappointments
Hield had a bust 1st game. Lets see him rebound
Bender I guess you'd have to put on the list
Ingram...Kinda expected, but needs to put on more weight.
