SL Game 3: MIA vs. DAL | 2:00pm CST on ESPN2

[Chicagojk]

What do you see in his GAME (not physical ability) that gives you that much optimism?  I've watched him play every one of his summer league games these 2 years and probably 80% of his reserve minutes.  I simply don't see an NBA player.  I held out hope, but he's regressed.

Physical traits.   I also think he has the right mental makeup as a guy who will work non stop and never complain about his role.    I can envision him being on the court and him doing the dirty work.   Will he get there?    Not sure.   I want to be cautious saying he regressed.  Summer league is tough to evaluate.   I thought his G league was up and down...despite good stats.   I was hoping he would take on more responsibility this summer and really have the look of NBA player.   I don't think we have seen that yet, but there are also a lot of variables that makes this hard to evaluate imo.

take my opinion with a grain of salt though, I talked myself into Nate Hinton 3 years ago.   I tried doing the same with Tyrell Terry...that was hard after they hype leading up to the draft and then seeing him on the floor in summer league.  I tried though.
