Completely agree with what everybody has said about the Summer League games:
They are not something to bet on because they are just for teams to feel out the new prospects they had signed on to their teams and nothing more.
The players don't take it serious and just mess about on court just as it was back in the days on the street ball summers they had growing up.
It is worse than Pre-season matches from a betting perspective.
But it is basketball and for those who need their fix for this league now til the NBA season starts up again.

Lakers management especially Pelinka seems not really good to handle their team and it seems he always commit bad decision which Lakers would suffer at the end.

Yeah, I don't know what Pelinka is still with the Lakers though, after winning a ring, all his decisions, including coaches are all failure and I don't understand why Jeannie Buss still keeps him. They should have fired him after the season that they won their championship. And now, they will have to chase to stay abreast with the Boston Celtics, as they won their 18 championship as compare to the Lakers which stands at 17.

The thing is they always blame their issues to their coach or to other people, while the fact is their management already been fuck up. If Pelinka will be fired out on his position due to his carelessness also wrong judgement of a lot of things in their organization then provably they can get their 18th championship. Boston now is ahead of 1 championship with them and I guess it will be so hard for Lakers to win a championship next season especially that they didn't made a good move on free agency plus the players they get from draft is not so really good especially Bronny. Lakers is just pure entertainment team and for sure they will be in talks because of controversy and circus happening on their team.

I do agree, he has been firing coach after coach and yet the way he builds his team? Is lacking. Now, DeRozan is with the Kings and Buddy Hield a shooter that they want, is with the Warriors, and then they left go of Klay as well? And what they got? Bronnie James? Lol. So how long will the Lakers need to suffer and allow Rob Pelinka to lead them to another disaster year?

As for the Summer League, no I'm not going to bet or even watch the games, might be better to see the FIBA Olympics qualifiers over the NBA for now.

Not sure if anybody noticed but the NBA Summer League started playing yesterday.
I wouldn't have noticed unless somebody didn't say something in my sportschat I frequent to see what events are inprogress.
At first I thought they were talking about an SRL match they were betting on or something.
But then noticed some teams showing up and then put two and two together and said, yeah. It is the Summer Time! NBA is on the menu!
One match that stood out to me was the Charlotte Hornets playing China. Cheesy

I saw post on the Warriors facebook page saying they won, but I didn't know which tournament it was. So, I searched for the start date of the NBA preseason because I thought it was the preseason. It said October 5. I only found out from your post that it was the Summer League. Lol. Anyway, I sometimes watch but I don't bet on the NBA Summer League or preseason, only the NBA regular season.

Betting on NBA Summer League? This must be really crazy, I don't think it's right to do this. In summer, teams are not interested in their own players, but in the players they want to sign a new contract with. Betting on these matches is pure luck, so there is no need to gamble. We already lose a lot of money in the season, there is no need to lose more in the summer Cheesy

Yeah, it's really hard to beat on them, and it's going to be very unpredictable as we know that there could be teams that are going to play very well, and then some just going to the motions of it.

So it's better not to bet and just simply watch those players and I do agree, just save enough, we still have months to go before the start, so at least plenty of rooms for us to move and then just bet when the actual season starts in October. Just take a break or just bet on other professional league and not on NBA Summer league.

And speaking of KCP, he moved to Orlando from Denver, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope leaves Nuggets, signs with Magic.
It's too bad that the Nuggets management overpaid Michael Porter Jr. because now they can't sign KCP to a new contract yet again. Just for context, the top 3 most paid players in the Nuggets are obviously Jokic, Murray and MPJ. They overpaid Porter Jr, and can't sign KCP that's why he went to the Orlando Magic that has a huge cap space for a veteran like him to sign with. The Magic got lucky to have a good defender, and at the same time, a good three-point shooter as well

Quote
Winner: New York Knicks
In a vacuum, Mikal Bridges isn't worth five first-round picks and another swap. But in the context of this Knicks team, he is. With OG Anunoby re-signed, the Knicks are one of the few teams that can match the Celtics' blueprint of a whole squad of top-shelf perimeter defenders funneling scorers toward an elite rim protector, which will likely be Mitchell Robinson with Isaiah Hartenstein on his way to Oklahoma City. It's impossible to overstate how much Bridges elevates this already very good team.

I agree. The Knicks are only lacking defensive players because Brunson can already bring chaos on the offensive end. He may be small but he cannot be easily stopped. Hart did try to cover for defense but the effect was exhausting nights with 40+ minutes per game, that cannot happen which is why Bridges is a good addition for their team.
I knew it already. Losing Hartenstein isn't a big problem for them. What made them winners is getting Bridges, and re-signing Anunoby. If Randle will not play on his best self this regular season, I'm afraid they will be trading him to another team... or maybe he's on the trade talks already, but it isn't being publicize yet. Whatever the case it is, the Knicks are winners for now because they got Bridges, Anunoby and they still have a chance to get some since they have draft picks.

If there's something that the Knicks are lacking, it's their interior defense. You can't rely too much on Mitchell Robinson on that as well because he's injury-prone, and right now, he's the only center the Knicks got.

I agree.

It's risky and but if you're going to put just a bare amount there, it won't hurt your pocket no matter what the results will be. But if you're going to bet there seriously, don't forget to have fun.

Summer league isn't as serious as the actual season in the NBA and who knows if there are some fixed matches here or just throwing the game as results won't really be important to a team.

Speaking of summer league, here's some news about Bronny James.

Bronny James has 4 points in summer league debut for Lakers

Quote
James finished with 4 points on 2-for-9 shooting, 2 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 steal in 22 minutes.

"The atmosphere," Bronny said when asked what surprised him the most after the Los Angeles Lakers' 108-94 loss to the Sacramento Kings to open the California Classic.

And they lost to the Kings by 14 points, so Bronny not really the kind of player we are expecting, he is just an ordinary player having the skills of a bench player but he is popular, that's all he is. However, everyone has a chance to grow, hopefully that's the case for Bronny.

I usually don't put any stock into summer game results.  Coaches use to to have players work on certain things.  Some that they might not be all that good at.  How many times have we seen summer league superstars barely get on the edge of a bench in the NBA.  Whereas others have flourished but stunk it up in the summer league.  With that being said at 6'2" bronny doesn't have the explosiveness he would need to succeed in the NBA long term. Don't see his career going anywhere.

Funny to say but that's reality, it indeed even before LBJ went to Lakers, but for the James family they don't mind them as they still getting their paycheck especially now that Bronny sign his contracts that's sure money for him.
Yup, the hate is there from the fans that don't like them but their paycheck keep on coming for both of them.

Compared to Thanasis, there are also other bench players that have gone through the championship by heating their seat on the bench. No offense, they've earned their spot and Thanasis, I don't see hate on him but pure memes.  Grin

As for Bronny, he's got a lot of time to prove his worth but no doubt that his dad influenced the draft.

Yeah right, not just Thanasis but there are players who win a ring without playing they are more successful compared to those superstar who finished their careers without winning a ring achievements wise.
I can remember that Deandre Jordan was also given some meme like that last year when the Nuggets won a ring.  Grin

But despite that, we don't know what happens during practice game. Maybe that's how they contribute better than our thoughts.

Games like that aren't interesting to most of us, but it's good that they started playing. However, I'm sure there are no superstars unless it's preseason, where superstars play, albeit with limited minutes. It's a long break, and they need to figure out how to win next season, especially the Warriors, who have declined a lot as a team. With the new lineup (minus Klay Thompson), we should see significant improvement, hopefully.

Its really important for a team to have reliable 3 point shooter since those guys could be a game changer especially on critical situations. That's why Lebron try to recruit those guys to want to build a more stronger Lakers next season. But its like all of them avoid to be added on Lakers roster maybe they know that they cannot get something with that team since maybe they will get less credit if there team would perform better, but would get a lot of blame if they perform bad just like what happen to them for past seasons.

Yes, Lebron knows that he needs 3 point shooter amongst his team mates, but in the case of KCP, I remember that he was frustrated because KCP doesn't want to shoot the ball in crucial minutes that's why they had to let him go. Comes Monk, he was also a good shooter, but was not a perfect fit because they really don't know where he would be in dying minutes of the game.

And speaking of KCP, he moved to Orlando from Denver, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope leaves Nuggets, signs with Magic.

Lakers management especially Pelinka seems not really good to handle their team and it seems he always commit bad decision which Lakers would suffer at the end.

They already did, there are videos of the Kings owner and deRozan entering Golden 1 together. So the other team that's involved is San Antonio Spurs. The deal is three years, Harrison Barnes to the Spurs and Chris Duarte, and two second round picks and cash consideration.

@LogitechMouse it's like this for the Los Angeles Lakers:

❌ Paul George
❌ James Harden
❌ Jonas Valanciunas
❌ Chris Paul
❌ Klay Thompson
❌ Buddy Hield
❌ DeMar DeRozan

✅ Bronny

What is happening Rob Pelinka,  Grin

I think the one on that list that really hurts is Buddy Hield.  I've been saying for years that his game would go perfectly with LeBron.  The Lakers need a shooter like that so I was bummed they didn't at least get Klay.  LeBron does best when he has 3 point shooters to kick the ball out to while driving.  I feel like he hasn't been surrounded with good shooters since the bubble. 

I think Lebron wanted to surround himself with 3 point artist, I think when they won the ring in the bubble he has a good shooters around him. But those shooters didn't stay that long for the Lakers and that is the problem with them.

They have like KCP, and Malik Monk if I'm not mistaken, but the management just keeps on trading them or not giving them a big contract. That's why maybe Hield could bea perfect fit but they did let him go. DeRozan too could be good for Los Angeles as he wanted to play with them since he is a native of LA.

^^ And this, about Klay's move to Dallas, and it seems very complicated and it was reported that this is the first time that this many teams and cash consideration are involved in such trade and also future picks.



https://x.com/MavsPR/status/1809769317216710666

Also, Klay's Warrior jersey is now on sale, for obvious reasons or if you are a fan, maybe you can keep it as memorabilia.

After those sudden trades, signs, and other things that are happening in the NBA, here is a good read while we wait for other trades to come.
NBA offseason winners and losers: Kings raise floor with DeMar DeRozan deal; Lakers' summer had been a bust
https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/nba-offseason-winners-and-losers-kings-raise-floor-with-demar-derozan-deal-lakers-summer-had-been-a-bust/

Quote
Winner: Sacramento Kings
The Kings already have a good offense without DeRozan, and the Timberwolves already had a good defense without Gobert. This just further solidifies it when Fox is on the bench or missing his usual 15-20 games. DeRozan remains about a sure a bucket as possible in tight possessions. That matters a lot over the course of 82 games, and indeed the Kings have to prioritize the regular season.

Quote
Loser: Los Angeles Lakers
We keep hearing about this (air quotes) third star they're looking to bring in, but forget a star; the Lakers are striking out on role players. Klay Thompson told them no, and he had every reason to end his career in Los Angeles, where he was born and where his dad won two championships and still serves as a Lakers radio commentator.
Do include the $20 million offer of Lebron just to get a third man for the team.

Quote
Winner: Philadelphia 76ers
The Sixers are winners by landing George, who fits neatly in their starting lineup between fellow All-Stars Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, who signed his own $204 million extension. George will almost certainly be the best player to change teams in free agency, and his addition makes the Sixers one of the NBA's top title contenders behind the reigning champion Celtics.

Quote
Loser: Los Angeles Clippers
The Clippers reportedly had a trade opportunity for George with the Warriors that would've at least brought back some valuable stuff, including a first-round pick and Jonathan Kuminga -- but it would've come with a $30 million Chris Paul commitment that would've probably put them over the second apron anyway.

Wow! I didn't know about that trade opportunity for the Clippers to get Jonathan Kuminga and a first-round pick. That could've been big for the Clippers. I mean Kuminga is growing at a speed that is surprising and the way he played last season says it all. That young guy will probably be one of the best forwards in the league and also one of the fastest.

Quote
Winner: New York Knicks
In a vacuum, Mikal Bridges isn't worth five first-round picks and another swap. But in the context of this Knicks team, he is. With OG Anunoby re-signed, the Knicks are one of the few teams that can match the Celtics' blueprint of a whole squad of top-shelf perimeter defenders funneling scorers toward an elite rim protector, which will likely be Mitchell Robinson with Isaiah Hartenstein on his way to Oklahoma City.

Caleb Martin signed with the Philadelphia 76ers.

Miles Bridges stayed with the Charlotte Hornets for a 3 year, $75 million contract.

DeMar DeRozan is probably going to Sacramento King. The Chicago Bulls and Sacramento Kings have reached an agreement, and they are looking for a third team to finalize the deal.

I’m hearing a lot of rumors about the Kings getting players. Most recently Brandon Ingram was rumored to be heading to Sacramento. The Kings have definitely flipped the switch into desperation mode. Their star player (Fox) not wanting to sign an extension has showed them that their window to make a playoff run is about to close.

They already did, there are videos of the Kings owner and deRozan entering Golden 1 together. So the other team that's involved is San Antonio Spurs. The deal is three years, Harrison Barnes to the Spurs and Chris Duarte, and two second round picks and cash consideration.

Fans have criticized him a lot.

Whenever he's not yet on the NBA and playing college, many were already criticizing him. Now, that he's got drafted by his pop's team, he's still being criticized.

The same as his dad, people still criticizing and hating him. I hope that people would have love for the two as they're just doing what they do.

Stop the hate, the actual season hasn't even started yet
That's the pressure when your dad is one of the greatest of all time in the largest basketball league around the world.

I don't hate him personally, but you can't take the fact that there will always be people out there that will hate him for multiple reasons. Also, take note that the LA Laker fans already hated Le-GM because of how manipulative he is, and how he acts like he's the GM of the Lakers organization. That hate will also be passed to his son and it's happening already. What Bronny can do is to just ignore what others are saying and focus on his development. That's his only way of shutting down these haters.

I have no hate for his son, but I have a bit of hate towards Le-GM because of how he uses his powers to make things favorable to him.
Even when LBJ isn't yet on the Lakers, people hated him already. That hate is causing them too much stress for themselves. I am not feeling bad for them either with LBJ. They give him hate as much as they want while LBJ continues to work on himself and made history after histories and continues to earn as well decently.

But it's true that the burden and expectation by being the son of the known and one of the greatest is there.


Funny to say but that's reality, it indeed even before LBJ went to Lakers, but for the James family they don't mind them as they still getting their paycheck especially now that Bronny sign his contracts that's sure money for him.

I understand where the hate is coming from. It is not because LeBron is his father, but because he is not deserving to be in the NBA based on his statistics in college, just like Thanasis being hated by some fans because he was on a team where he literally did nothing, LOL.

I think we should not take this seriously though. They hate him in real life, but on his life as a basketball player. Without those kinds of hate and love in basketball, this league wouldn't be fun, just saying.

Whenever he's not yet on the NBA and playing college, many were already criticizing him. Now, that he's got drafted by his pop's team, he's still being criticized.

The same as his dad, people still criticizing and hating him. I hope that people would have love for the two as they're just doing what they do.

Stop the hate, the actual season hasn't even started yet

I understand where the hate is coming from. It is not because LeBron is his father, but because he is not deserving to be in the NBA based on his statistics in college, just like Thanasis being hated by some fans because he was on a team where he literally did nothing, LOL.

I think we should not take this seriously though. They hate him in real life, but on his life as a basketball player. Without those kinds of hate and love in basketball, this league wouldn't be fun, just saying.
Compared to Thanasis, there are also other bench players that have gone through the championship by heating their seat on the bench. No offense, they've earned their spot and Thanasis, I don't see hate on him but pure memes.  Grin

As for Bronny, he's got a lot of time to prove his worth but no doubt that his dad influenced the draft.
