If my math is correct, the Bucks are going to pay nearly 40% of the salary cap over the next 3 years to Turner, Trent and Dead Cap (from Lillard’s waive and stretch).
Pace of play should be better prioritized in summer league.
The one free throw rule is meant to help with this but then they allow things like official reviews for out of bounds calls and fouls in the middle of the game.
Makes no sense for games with low stakes.
Lessons from over a decade of building NBA Draft big boards:
1) Have strong opinions, loosely held.
Conviction matters.
So does being willing to change your mind when new information becomes available.
Stubbornness is not the same thing as confidence.
11) Avoid black-and-white thinking.
"This guy is obviously a star."
"This guy is obviously a bust."
The draft is the great humiliator.
I'd never want my team staffed by people who think that way.
Lastly thanks to @CanyonDriver @Sam_Vecenie @DraftExpress and others for the tremendous content. Accessibility of High Quality draft info for regular people has never been better for Sickos like me.
Tony Bennett did not work for programs who relied on one and done talent. His team's ability to find and cultivate under-recruited talent during his time at WSU and UVA led to superb results anyways. None of the below players were 5 star prospects in HS but all became solid pros

Having both Jamal Shead and Chucky Hepburn on the floor make it very hard for the Magic to get into their offense. Really impressive defensive rotations from the rest of the team as well.
