Yeah, because they can tell from 2 summer league games how a player's NBA career is going to turn out.

LOL...maybe you should've paid more attention to the article.

Naturally, that causes some overreactions both good and bad based on how prospects perform. As I mentioned in my roundup of the California Classic and Salt Lake City Summer Leagues, it's important to remember these few things:
  • If a player goes off at Summer League, it's exciting, but it doesn't guarantee that it will translate to regular season NBA games.
  • If a player completely lays an egg at Summer League, it doesn't automatically mean they're a bust, either.
  • If a player plays well, that's great! If they don't, after all, "it's just Summer League."

Author could have at least waited till the end of summer league before writing this kind of hot dog filler. His "loser" take looks silly after Jabari shot 60% from 3 and locked down the entire spurs summer league roster in game 3.

Banchero is a heck of a player right now, but I still think we got a phenomenal prospect in Jabari. His desire to play defense is probably the highest in the draft class (possibly rivaled by his new teammate Tari). He also has the most room to grow of anyone in the draft.

I really like him as a prospect because 1. He's a good shooter 2. He plays defense and can guard any position. 3. He has a ton of upside.

Been very impressed with Eason this summer. He may have been a steal at #17

Dude can ball but is too lazy. Could have been a solid player in the league if he didn't take plays off and had any sort of second effort.

Not sure it we really wanted Chet but sure feels like we dodged a bullet here. Foot injuries just seem so common for the NBAs 7-footers.

Yep, don't care who Pat is playing for I always root for him. The NBA would be more fun if everyone played with that intensity.

Wow...definitely a bullet dodged. The knock on Chet coming into the draft was that he would snap the minute he ran into a legit NBA body. Pretty much what happened....

Wow. Not every day a team trades a franchise player without being forced to.

I don't mind the Jersey, even though it makes us look like the early 90's SuperSonics.

The shorts are terrible, though

I don't get the green other than just a lot more potential jersies to try and sell. Baylor grad Carol Dawson didn't even try this crap when he was running the Rockets.

I don't hate the jerseys but they do seem very out of place. Nobody really cares that the Rockets were in San Diego for a few minutes back in the 60s.

I wish they would make the blue pinstripe with the mid 90's "Rockets" font our permanent jersey and court design. I think they did a great job capturing both of those eras with that logo/jersey combo.

Favors could be useful but this is a nice little $$$$ shuffle by Stone

First impressions, the only thing that excites me is the draft pick. Favors would have been a nice pickup 8 years ago lol.

Is this a move to dump salary? I'm not sure the contracts of the players involved. Because otherwise it looks kinda like an irrelevant deal on both sides
