NBA Summer League | Mavs end off 4-1

[KillerLeft]

Honestly Hardy's summer league was a bit disappointing. Sure he managed to score 24 in his first 2 games, but it was the difficulty he had in doing it. 

Maybe he can't be "the" guy, but looks way way way better next to the ones who are. Still, the talent is there. Hopefully he took this relatively rough SL where he forced a bunch of shots as a lesson he still has a lot of work to do. 

I felt his SL last year was better for him even though he didn't score as much.

I agree. I think he looked a bit better last summer in some ways. I agree with those who suggest this has to do with them letting him play PG, but on the other hand I don’t think he makes it in the league without a little ability to do that. Jordan Clarkson isn’t really a PG, but does anyone here think he would’ve looked as rough as Hardy did running the Mavs’ SL team? I do not.

I’m still REALLY high on Hardy as a piece on this team, but not quite as sure as some that he’s ready to step into the main bench scoring role this year. Maybe by the end of the year.
