    JHS isn’t the worst player of all time?!?

    Sit back Max and enjoy not having to carry to get the W.

  2. hairyasscheeks_

    JHS lookin better and better every game. Lewis was also great today. Push for the summer league chip.

  3. nottherealstanlee

    JHS has been fantastic. Finally got some shots to fall today but he’s continued to shine as a passer and defender. Love so much about his game.

  4. PinoyLaker

    Bro JHS is huge. I thought Max was pretty tall and lengthy as a wing. And JHS is the same height in this post game interview lol.

    Christie had an off-scoring game, but his defense was insane. Had Miller in his pocket all game.

    Love what i see from all the guys. Hodge has potential too

    Castleton with another nice game.JHS continuing to improve as well.I like it.

    Christie, Castleton, JHS, Lewis, hodge bright future

    I wouldnt be mad at Lakers signing Castleton to a legit deal.

    Still should prob move Swider to the bench for either Lewis or Fudge but whatever.

    We got f*ckin Basketball players gentlemen. Castleton continues to amaze me. JHS although starting slow has never looked panicked or rushed, which is crazy for a rookie. I’m loving his vision, poise and pace and can’t wait to see what he develops into. Max Christie is already the goat of summer league. Hodge and Lewis look really solid. Fudge is showing flashes. Just an exciting summer league team overall.

    Colin “the mother fucking castle” castleton running the fast break: things I like to see

    Castleton, Hodge, JHS, Max 1 and Max 2 are all gonna have long NBA careers

    Probably the best game we’ve seen from Shafino yet. Way more controlled and composed, showing impact from mid range, making 2 threes, and dropping some good dimes to corner 3s.

    Castleton our best guy today. Great touch at the rim.

    Christie an off shooting night but effectiveness on the defensive end was great.

    Really liked what i saw from Hodge’s 3 and D. His shooting form is very clean.

    Maxwell Lewis has great physical tools and cutting. His shot release feels a little too low for my liking but overall has the tools to be good.

    I hope they give Castleton the 4/8 deal a bunch of 2nd round/undrafted players are getting right now.

    If we can build a young athletic team around AD it will allow us to keep LJ even longer than I thought. With Reaves, Hachimura, Russell and this new class, we might be able to rest LJ and AD a lot during the season and have them completely healthy for the PO. That’s going to be huge.

  16. Fudge put up a steal and two blocks in eleven minutes. We need to give a regular contract to Castleton and move Fudge to the open two way spot. Don’t want another team poaching him from us.

    That man White Castle saw how hungry those skinny Hornets boys looked and handed out 21 sliders, 14 sides of fries and three onion rings to boot. Carry the hell on…

    Lakers clearly went for athletic, bigger, and longer players this draft/FA. Fino is improving as each game goes by and and Max has shown some flashes as well. Christie is gonna be huge for us if he is able to translate his growth shown here in summer to the regular season and playoffs. Also, Castleton is legit. Think he will get a contract soon

  19. jonbemerkin

    I need to pick the right moment to call out getting 30 downvotes for saying Max Christie will be just as valuable as Bruce Brown.

  20. Alternative_Leg9446

    I think JHS looks like a quality NBA player in development but his free throw shooting has been cheeks.

    Castleton after hearing Lakers are looking for a big still

    Is Scottie Pippen Jr injured? I don’t think he’s a part of the Lakers plans anymore but he has to be injured if he’s getting 0 minutes right?

  23. Love how hard the guys cut when Castleton has the ball in the high post.

  24. HandsInMyPockets247

    I know it’s early, but I’m excited about these guys. Definitely some potential!
