Did y'all see this shit? The pistons are the top team in the east. Today they had 4/5 starters out, and 3 more important players also injured. They won by 11. BBall Paul looked incredible. Dannis Jenkinsanity continues. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone and this team feels unstoppable. I wish I could get in a time machine to go back to the 28-game losing streak and show someone this.

For me at least. lemmy.blahaj.zone doesn't load but phtn.lemmy.blahaj.zone does.

Summer league is still getting started and I'm curious what y'all are thinking so far.

I haven't watched every game but I have some thoughts myself. I thought Tim Connelly was crazy for drafting another French center but I understand it now, Joan getting 7 blocks in his first game has convinced me that he can replace (and possibly exceed) Gobert in the future. Dilly, TSJ, and Clark were exciting too, the wolves' young core is looking nice especially on defense.

I had higher hopes for pistons' 2nd round pic Chaz Lanier, I'm hoping he gets some better catch-and-shoot looks going forward but those aren't as common in summer league. Ron Holland on the other hand might as well have been LebRon Holland. 28pts 11reb 3stl 4/5 3pt is impressive, especially the improved shooting, I hope it's not a fluke.

Speaking of fluke, all eyes have been on Cooper Flagg and Bronny James. We'll see in a couple hours if Coop can have a better game today, 5/21 from the field is rough though. Bronny was playing lockdown defense too which seems to be his new identity, we'll see if he can keep this up, he could be a rotational player going forward.

Anyways would love to hear what other people are thinking and feeling so far!
