Moody and Kuminga destroying worlds right now LMFAOOO
Anyone else on here do League Pass? It appears they no longer allow you to watch summer league games live, and I haven’t been able to get it to let me watch the replay either. What a joke.
ESPN app has all the games if you have a log in.
SO ARE THE CAVS / KOBY TAKING A REAL GOOD LOOK AT “CABINJELLY ” BEFORE THEY PURSUE / RESIGN “HARD ROCK “
well, they had both guys on the roster last season, but also Koby said they’re “showcasing Kabengele for the league” LMFAOOOO
In other news Cunningham looks really smooth. Top 3 looks promising so far.
Start Mobley at 5.
Garland
Sexton
Jedi/Okoro
Love
Mobley
never put Love on the floor without Rubio
Couple of thoughts: – Looks like defense won’t be much of an adjustment for Mobley. – Offensively he looks promising but this side shows what he’s lacking. I like the fight that I see when he dunked on Sengun. He’s still kinda slow in my eye but I think he has good footwork. Positioning and play awareness is what he needs to improve on so far, but it’s forgivable knowing that it’s the summer league and play sets are not clear. I want to see him play within the Cavs offensive scheme (lol whatever that is). – Another thing offensively,… Read more »
The issue with Mobley is that we drafted him thinking he is gonna be a switchable 5 man, eventually. Perhaps if the J develops he can be a stretch 4. But neither Mobley is here yet. Too skinny & weak on the glass to be a 5. Does not have the range to stretch the floor yet. Of our starting 5, the only guys who really fit the modern profile if a nba player at their position are Garland and Allen. Sexton’s lack of size for a 2 guard (or lack of vision as a 1) and the inability to… Read more »
I think he can and will be a switchable 5 eventually but right now that should not be what they want for him to do. The thing is, the best partner he could have at the frontcourt right now is Kevin Love to be honest.
Mobley should start at 5. Putting him at 4 with Allen will stunt his growth in my opinion. He’s not yet quick enough and his release is slow so far to be a 4, which he will be for the majority of his minutes playing alongside Nance or Allen. That’s wrong in my opinion.
Mobley will probably look a million times better with a real point guard like DG.
He’ll love playing with DG…who wouldn’t, really? Especially bigs.
Sengun and Green look ready for some real NBA minutes. Kabengele and Okoro with some nice stuff. Mobley getting comfortable but is going to need time.
I wasn’t able to tune in until mid 3rd quarter, but was pleased to see Okoro looking like a vet. Seemed very confident and under control.
This draft hy Houston is gonna set them up for a decade. Sengun is as good as advertised, and Jaylen Green looks like he could be as good of a rookie as this league has seen in a while.
yup, homerun draft. Christopher looks great too for a non-lottery player.
plus.. numnuts gave them kpj..
He will wash out inside of a year.
Nice to see KPJ looking healthy & happy.
WOAH STEVENS WITH THE THREE!!!!!!!!
Sengun is owning Mobley on the boards.
Mobley is not a post player, Okoro should’ve hit him on the roll.
