Can I say I'm glad the Mavs got Christie and not Knecht in the Luka trade yet, or is it too soon?

Nembhard is essentially already on the roster and locked up. He can play in as many as 50 regular season games. He just will not be eligible for the playoffs.
There is no reason to add to the complication of the roster crunch by giving him a guaranteed deal to the main roster for an extra 32 games and playoff availability.
We have a difference of opinion.

For all his perceived athletism, I think he´d get zero rebounds in a one on one battle with Luka, cause he´s not a natural.
I think Flagg has been boxing out very well and just hasn't had that many chances to get a contested rebound.
No reason to compare him to Luka.

One of the things I'll be watching this season is his hands. I don't think his ability to secure rebounds is stellar, personally. But, it seems like you're questioning his ability to position himself for them. I'm not super worried about that. He'll learn.

Disagree. There were two instances already, where he had clear position to the ball in one on one situation, and he let somebody take his rebound from him, cause he was slow. Rodman would have secured that rebound and changed his hair colour in that time.

I'd say it may be too soon..Knecht is gonna be alright.

They should've gotten both.
RE: Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN - SleepingHero - 07-10-2025
Nembhard is FANTASTIC.
What a steal read and then pass ahead for Kelly.
RE: Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN - KillerLeft - 07-10-2025
Great lead pass from Nembhard there. I kinda like Kelly.

Flagg with the block, then steal!!!

I mean I don't really care that they didn't get Kenecht. But he should've been sent to a 3rd team and the assets from that be sent to the Mavs.
RE: Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN - Mavs2021 - 07-10-2025
Nembhard and Kelly are worthy of their two way contracts and in a good situation personally with our shitty guard depth. Could see both of them get a few minutes here and there with the 1st team.
These guys need to stop passing to Sharp like he´s Hakeem.

Mavs outscored the Lakers 13-0 to close out the quarter.
RE: Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN - SleepingHero - 07-10-2025
Kelly's ability to make the main roster is his ability to stay in front of NBA level players defensively. He has shown he can hit a 3 very well.
Nemby needs more. VERY excited both of them are locked into two-way's for now.

I have no idea what i am watching and the practices probably tell you more, but at first glance I don’t see the third two way player on the summer league team.
RE: Summer League Game 1: 7pm CST on ESPN - Mavs2021 - 07-10-2025
I like this Gabe McGlothan. He´s like an Ingles guy. Grandpa style, but +13 on the boxscore.

#37 has really impressed me thus far.
Only one game but has impacted this game all over.
