Summary

Can we please calm down with the hype of NBA Summer League? The buildup for Orlando and Houston was like Alcindor and Hayes for crying out loud. The top pick in the draft Paulo Banchero of the Magic was 5-12 for 17 points and 4 rebounds. Jabari Smith who was taken third by the Rockets had just 10 points on 4-10 shooting and 7 rebounds. I get you need to market the league, but the buildup for these two players and the game was over the top! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
