He still owed it to me to come back for his 5th year

[We R Final Four]

Double double the game before also.

[ATL MU Warrior]

He's looked a whole lot better than TKO.

[ATL MU Warrior]

Kam having his best game so far as well.

[tower912]

Oso knows how to play the game.  Did he secretly practice with Gard every summer?

[MuMark]

Yeah nice game for Kam......they had him for 18 points......I think he actually had 20.

6 assists and a few steals.........had the 3 ball going today which was good to see.

On the negative side.......6 turnovers.

Nice to see he drilled the triple today. 

It's hard to glean all that much from SL.  Unless the guy is an obvious stud, aka Wade 2003.  The physicality on tbe perimeter is basically rugby.  TyKo hasn't been good, but he's been relentlessly hacked on and off the ball

Oso has looked really solid but it's still hard to tell what his impact will be.  His defense has impressed me the most.  He's been really good guarding on switches.  He's definitely improved offensively but I'm still not sure he can score consistently.

TyKo better pick a foreign language he wants to learn

He has to elevate his game and play with more confidence.

I'm 95% sure the refs are also non- NBA refs looking to make the league.

[MuggsyB]

Oso is on ESPN+. 

[MuggsyB]

Damn.  Great move there but the lefty reverse floater isn't optimal.  Plant, shot fake, go up and flush that with two hands or draw the foul. 

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Shouldn't he learn to read first?

[79Warrior]

Rough summer for TKO. I think it is going to be tough for him to make the roster this fall.

[The Sultan]

He will likely make the roster as he has a bunch of guaranteed money left on his deal, plus he can always be optioned to the G-Legue. I know its not looking good for him, but its only been a couple of games.

That's what he gets for not playing in the Big East Tournament two years ago.  #NeverForget

[Jockey]

Lack of athleticism is hard to overcome for TK and Kam.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Should probably go with Canadian

[Scoop Snoop]

Should probably go with Canadian

Eh? Eh eh eh eh.

Only a couple games, and his per-36 numbers last year (9.9 p/36, 8.5 a/36) were good. I'd guess they'll put more stock in what he actually did in NBA games than in a couple summer league games where they are clearly trying to change his aggressiveness in terms of shooting.

Yes they changed it to 20 points

20points

[MU82]

Kam had been very tentative in the first couple of games, when they almost always had him playing off the ball.

Yesterday, he had the ball in his hands a lot more, looked very confident and aggressive. He looked for opportunities to drive and had a couple Klassic Kam finishes, and he didn't hesitate when he had open 3s.

It's Summer League, but he looked like he belonged.
