SL Game 2 - Wolves at Nuggets GDT

[Lipoli390]

Rob looks a lot better on offense, but worse on defense than the first game. Overall he's playing winning basketball though so I can't complain too much.

I actually think Rob’s been pretty good defensively this game as he was the last. Definitely better offensively. I’m imagining the nightmare opposing defenses will experience facing both Dilly and Ant in the backcourt.

We're seeing different things then on defense. He was much better last game IMO. Offensively he's making better decisions, although I'm not convinced he'll scare any NBA defenses this next season. Time will tell.

I’m far more concerned by Clark’s horrendous shooting and lack of any semblance of an offensive game than I am about Dilly’s defensive lapses and occasional bad passes. Dilly is lightening quick and can get to anywhere on the floor he wants and get a shot off any time he wants. When paired with Ant he’ll definitely scare some defenses.

And with the age of Edwards he is what he is. Why not see what we have in Rocco

I’m not saying I’m confident in Clark shot but he was a 40% 3 pt shooter at the nba level and was an elite cutter with the big club

Totally agree on Clark and dilly. Leaving a lot to be desired

The only reason to keep playing Shannon now is to win the Summer League title.

Dilly had 15 points, 9 assists and 3 steals. I don’t see any cause for concern about Dilly. I am, however, worried about Clarks poor shooting and lack of any other significant offensive skills. He shot well last season, but given his reputation as a poor shooter than might have been an anomaly. Those two free throw misses in the 4th quarter were painful to watch But we’ll see. Even good shooters have bad shooting nights. Maybe Clark will bounce back.

I actually thought Edwards played well tonight. But I’m with you in preferring to see more Rocco and less Edwards.

Just a few thoughts
TSJ just too good for the summer league however I will not mind him playing all summer because he makes the job easier on others.

Dilly was a mixed bag, I still worry that he really struggles at the rim. Thought he defense was not good tonight, thought his passing and pace of play was great today

Clark is struggling with his shot but he shot well at the nba level and he is a game breaker on defense

Beringer does not have much of an offensive game but his hands and athleticism pops on TV. Happy he was our pick because he looks like he could be special

Rocco was also really nice tonight. Made a great pass, made a floater, defender the rim. I’m intrigued to say the least.

Miller was terrible, I just don’t think he has the basketball IQ to be a successful nba player.

I want to give a shout out to Newton. I thought he was great tonight and props to him because I see why the wolves want him on a 2-way

He was also 38% in the G-League on over 100 attempts, so basically he was hitting that shot all last season in the G-League and NBA. While he may not make 40% again, it's hard seeing him suddenly going all Josh Okogie on us.

I agree with you on Edwards. Honestly at this second he might be the guy I trust in an emergency situation with a big getting hurt on opening night. I think he has very little upside but he is in the right spot and using verticality to defender. If he had to play in a real game I think he has the highest floor of our out of the rotation bigs but the lowest ceiling on any given day
