  1. For someone who played 4 years of college basketball, it’s crazy to see the weight that some are giving to Buddy Hield’s Summer League and preseason performances. Buddy going 3-6 from deep in a preseason game means no more to me than him throwing up bricks in Summer League. I wrote about Hield this offseason (so did Schwan) and am sticking with what I said: I think he’s going to be a lethal off-ball option whose scoring prowess will always be predicated upon his ability to pull up from deep.
