Hi All,
I live in Los Angeles so it’s obviously much easier (and cheaper) to make it out to Vegas for the summer league games.
Is anyone planning on attending any of the games this year? I’ve never attended but with the vast number of rookies that will be playing I plan on going to a few of the games!
I don’t know if Zion will be playing. If he does I’ll probably try and make it out to every game. Seeing that flying to Vegas is cheaper for me to watch him than flying to Louisiana.
Going to book my flights and get tickets as soon as the schedule comes out for our games VS the Lakers in Louisiana.

Think if Zion were to do anything it would be to go hang out with team USA like Davis did.
No problem with him not playing. Nothing for him to prove in summer league. More interested in seeing the rest of the guys get their feet wet.
Too bad NBA reddit streams is down. Going to be harder to catch the games this year. -
06-21-2019, 12:54 AMHartOfaPelicanI can watch most of the games her locally three spectrum. I think they pretty much show all the games now. Summer leagues has become a huge hit!Quote:

I would not mind if Zion did not even play in the summer league. If he does play, I hope it is one game or very limited minutes.
-
06-21-2019, 01:43 PMHartOfaPelicanI go back and forth on it.Quote:

Both arguments are valid.
I think I’d like to see him play 2 games then shut him down if you see no further benefit.
I think it’s good for the rookies as well if he plays. They are a tram and a family. The rookies should go out and win together... including Zion. -

I don't see a ton of benefit. I don't think Hayes or Walker will be playing (at least the early games) as that trade will not be finalized until July 6. Most of the people playing, on both sides, are players who will not even be in the NBA next season. I always have found summer league games to be like a pickup game and somewhat reckless. I see it as more of a tryout by fringe players trying to get only a training camp roster.

Well I guess 3 players on the Summer League team will be Zylam Cheatham, Aubrey Dawkins, and Javon Bess..
-
06-22-2019, 01:21 PMramsters60I'm thinking you can add Hayes, NAW, Blueitt (healthy?) ... interesting stuff going on and I hope Frank Jackson is keeping active and getting more consistent...Quote:

At least Didi found a Pelicans hat for an interview instead of wearing a Nets or Hawks hat or whatever team "drafted" him. they need to change that garbage. It's a buzzkill for the player and fans already know the deal.
Like I said before, you can never have enough Brazilians on the roster.

06-22-2019, 01:38 PMPelicanidaeI like to imagine he found whoever was wearing the #57 hat and fought them for it.Quote:

So because of the NBA’s crappy rules, players that were in trades won’t be able to play right away in summer league. So Hayes, NAW, & de Silva won’t be able to play in the first game. We play the Knicks July 5! Zion versus RJ battle!!
They won’t even be able to practice before either, so I guess they will just be thrown in there the second game. Hopefully they get one practice in before that second game. -
06-22-2019, 02:06 PMluckymanI dont think his pick was part of a trade. Was an original Pelicans pick.Quote:

Frank said in his exit interview that he would be playing in the summer league. I hope that changes.
-
06-22-2019, 02:16 PMPelicanidaeWhy? Frank hasn't surpassed Summer League caliber or anything. It could do him well to get a little run with Zion.Quote:

They also get a watch with the teams logo on it. So Hayes will get a nice Hawks watch and NAW will get a nice Nets watch to boot.
-
06-22-2019, 02:35 PMPelicanidaeWhich is just stupid. You pay all this money as a supermassive company like the NBA for these nice, fancy watches. Made by Tissot, these watches aren't gonna be dirt cheap. Not saying they're like, $50k watches or anything, they're not, but they're probably worth a good chunk of change.Quote:

06-22-2019, 05:31 PMHoustonPelicansI worded that wrong. I thought someone said Frank wasnt playing in the summer league, I was saying I hope that changes. I want Frank in the summer league, if he dominates it, that will let us know what he can be going forward.Quote:

Frank / Carr
NAW / Blueitt / Bess
Didi / Dawkins
Zion / Zylan
Jax
?? Good start if they're all available -
06-22-2019, 09:36 PMDarkhorse985
Will Didi play summer league? I thought the international stash players typically don’t. Please someone correct me if I am wrong.

I'll be there for the 1st game Friday.
-
06-23-2019, 12:29 PMSunshinePumper
I'll be there for the game on the 10th against Cleveland, and possibly a semifinal
-
06-23-2019, 12:35 PMkinglio21093I feel like Frank has shown he can play in this league. He doesn't need to play in a league where there's nothing to gain, especially given his injury history.Quote:

Adams, Bess, and Dawkins all averaged double digits in points and were leaders on their teams. Reminds me of previous SGs that have been signed before going into summer league play.
