    He got fatter and his free throw shot is still broke. Waste of time and a Summer League rotation spot.

    Who in the front office is high on him? Is it Silas, Stone?

    I feel like a big issue for summer leaguers and role players in general is just that...

    theyre used to being the dominant athlete on the court but have little BBIQ

    Its only the end of the 3rd quarter so this may be premature...

    I have seen worse defenders than Nix before, but I'm not sure if I've seen players care so little on D while being so bad. And for that, I'm out

    I've seen a few instances where the ball get loose and is rolling near him and he just gives up. Like literally he just stood there when he could've hustled and dove for it. Horrible effort.

    Alright he had a very solid 4th quarter. I still don't think he is a viable NBA player with that broke FT shot. It didn't get any better.

    It also takes a lot maturity and self realization to do this. It is basically "the prisoner's dilemma", and lots of people fail at that decision.

    He jumps too easily and those jump passes are turnover prone in the big league.

    I thought Nix had a good game. He looks quicker and more explosive.

    He had a decent game. But he's nothing special. Nothing stands out at all.

    Ty-Ty..his feel for the game stands out. He is never rushed, very decisive, knows where to be on the court and set ups the offense. His defense is solid.

    I don't get the excessive praise for Titty, he had 2 assists and took more shots than he had points.

    Now sure he had some moments, but imo he didn't really impress very much.

    What point are you making here? Ty-Ty at SG had even better instincts than Nix at PG

    I disagree completely Nix was running the point beautifully tonight hitting cutters down the middle, hitting crazy cross court passes RIGHT in the pocket - he is the only true PG type of the entire team.

    He passes only as a bail out after he jumps for a drive in lay up

    I thought he was going to translate what he was doing in G League. So far hasn’t been the case.
