Jayson Tatum On Vegas Summer League Second Team

Ball had, what, one great game and then a lot of nothing?  

Bulletin board material, Jayson, use this as bulletin board material to work even harder.

Bull, all everyone talked about was Tatum in Utah. This is bull. Did sitting him hurt his chances. This is okay, he will show them when it counts.

NBA is determined to make Ball the glory boy

Lonzo Ball had a very good Summer League and was deserving to be named the Summer League MVP.
Lonzo had the only two triple doubles in the last 14 years of summer league, he had a 36 point game, 2 games of 5 steals and in his last game he had 14/4/10 with 0 turnovers at halftime. He left in the early 3rd quarter due to a calf issue.

Jason Tatum was very impressive in Summer League. He's going to be a very good player!

I was very impressed by Ball in his great games, now lets see how the rooks do in the real NBA, not the DL level players....Lonzo meet Marcus Smart.

I watched a bit of his games, and saw the highlights of course. It really does look like he has a great feel for the passing game which I think in time will be true in the NBA as well. Don't know about the rest of the game, but I suspect his passing will be among the best in the league.

Tatum got dissed. Not to worry. This is fuel for the fire in his belly.

Ball is going to be as good as advertised, maybe even better than some expected.  Except for one off game, and the fact it's just summer league after all, he showed a preview in the Vegas league.

No argument with the other 8 named; all showed great potential.  I think Kyle Kuzma is going to be a player to watch, and could be a steal as part of the Lopez trade.  

Tatum showed why we took him and gave a glimpse into his often used "NBA ready" tag.  Now it's going to be up to Stevens to figure Tatum's fit and roll in what should be an improved offense.

Tatum was a top 5 participant. Once he adds a few more pounds of muscle he will be a great player for Boston.

Lonzo will be a non-factor if Smart is on him.

Give Lonzo a couple of years in the league and I doubt Smart or anyone else will make him a non factor.

Smart will be able to do a better job than most other guards but slowing him down is the best I would expect to see.
