The Summer League Cavs play the first game of a back to back against the Charlotte Hornets. The Cavs will be looking to bounce back from an uninspired performance against the Nuggets last Sunday. The game will be nationally televised on ESPNU, with tip off scheduled for 5PM Eastern Time. GO CAVS!
cap up
Think Agbaji plays tomorrow or sits?
sits, but wouldnt’ bet on it.
interesting question.
Presumably Summer League has two goals:
(1) Give your new guys a start on learning the teams system and getting used to the players.
(2) Figure out who you want at camp, both for a potential spot, and training camp extra players.
Anything I forgot?
This crew is such that Agbaji won’t be learning much of the teams system, and he would keep the other guys off the floor. So, I vote for “sits”.
THE “BUCK GLASS ALMOST EMPTY ” IS HOW MY BEER BOTTLES NORMALLY ALWAYS LOOK …………………” MORE BEER PLEASE “
IF OKORO COMES BACK THIS YEAR WITH AN IMPROVED OFFENSIVE GAME—OUTSIDE SHOT—HANDLES TO THE BASKET —THAT WILL BE ‘ICING ” ON THE CAKE
i will drink to that NOMAD bro.. a case of fire-brewed strohs
yeah buddy, I had a Strohs last night
outrebounded by 12 and couldn’t shoot for shit outside of Agbaji.
1-17 from 3 outside of Ochai
yeah. I-Mobe ain’t shooting for squat, but is so far 11-3-0-2 on RASB.
ochai sitting better with the doubters ? i am worrying about okoro making the effort to improve his offense (as a #5 pick).. i have no such concerns with ochai.. looks to be a very solid (at least) late lottery pick..
yeah, if Okoro isn’t a LOT BETTER this year, …
he won’t be.. bet on it.. coasting on “talent” like the rest of the 99% of the children who populate pro sports.. larry bird they are NOT
the buck “glass almost empty” take!
afraid you might be right, but we will see.
it’s how i roll.. but there is an upside.. i am almost never disappointed, and take a perverse joy when others are.. my early childhood life trauma associated with the mid-60s tribe suck-a-thon is to blame..
raoul bro.. just so you understand my meaning re larry bird above.. i should have added lebron, jordan, russell etc.. all those great talented players who also believed in hard work and excellence.. performance plateaus usually aren’t a result of running out of talent.. it is usually about running out of effort and discipline, especially after the big checks start rolling in.. why i don’t watch the games.. playing GM is much more fun.. just following the stats..
Jeepers Creepers Williams is a giant
LETS GO DUKE!
WOULD HAVE LOVED TO SEE DIOP DOMINATE THESE SUMMER BOYS
me too
nice PnR rep by Agbaji
AGBAJI ON FIRE!
Really think DG is going to appreciate Agbaji…
I think he may be the starter sooner rather than later. But LeVert, & Ice probably all ahead of him for now.
another half of shit defense from the Cavs.
McGowans mad about getting passed over for Mobley I suppose LMFAOOO
Actually he was picked before Mobley. Not Diop, though.
GREAT PASS MOBLEY!
Ochai being very aggressive…. MOBLEY AND ONE!
Sylla zero rebounds and two turnovers… put him on the pine coach!
Koby speaks…rare occasion…
don’t think they asked him about Sexton did they?
Nope.
Cam Young crashing to earth with a terrible turnover
Manek is cooking the Cavs
Nothing I’ve seen from Agbaji has been surprising, but it’s nice to see him shooting well. You always wonder if that’s going to translate.
day one pro
Yep.
He won’t give you much off the dribble, but he can certainly shoot. Mature at 22.
CAM YOUNG COOKING LETS GO
instant impact from Cam Young off the bench
CAM TO AGBAJI!
McGowans cooking the Cavs, nasty stuff
right idea, poor execution pass by Nembhard…. Travers good defense.
DRIVE AND FINISH SYLLA! what a move!
Might be a nice player in a few years…needs to get stronger…
steal Agbaji! tip in Travers!
Cavs lack of defensive rebounding to open the game… smh
A BIG NOMAD NO TO THE RUMORS CONLEY SIGN AND TRADE FOR SEXTON—-WHERE // WHAT DO WE GAIN IN THAT DEAL
yup, have to agree…. love Conley’s game, but 35 years old this season and poor playoff performance, his time has passed unfortunately.
I think that’s a dated rumor, probably from before Cavs signed Neto. It makes no sense, anyway, for a team trying to avoid the luxury tax. Also, big fan of Conley, but he’s close to washed.
