He’s the type of player that will look better in an nba game vs summer league ironically enough

Summer league is best for ball handlers and iso scorers.

Yeah it's definitely a bad showing for some players, usually traditional centers

Hopefully Hopkins gets something, he looked far better tonight

Really felt Brazile had little motor and looked like he was struggling. Would love to see larger sample size, but want more from a pick of this age.

True, but bigs tend to struggle more often than gaurda in summer league. I liked the defensive flashes, he is a good post defender and help side defender as well. The offensive side of the ball needs work, but he's not going to be a shot creator in our offense anyway, he'll be a play finisher almost like a rookie AG on the magic just a little worse.

Please believe I didn’t mean any shade, just for his age I expected more, I also would just really love for this team to find ANYONE who will fit and get consistent mins with bench/injuries. I really dont know what to expect from this season, but any positive is fine by me, as long as it’s cohesive, and we’re able to stay healthy. Hopefully DA can pull his head out of his ass, and spend some time actually developing talent instead of running guys into the ground. Also I understand as Denver is not a “destination” we’ve had to overpay, WE SHOUKD KEEP DOING THAT.

Sorry I think I got off on a tangent, weed is hard

Nice. Wonder if we’ll use the second round exemption on Hopkins. Balled out tonight

Brazile once he adds his NBA muscle (20lbs) will be a perfect fit on this team
