Since the Summer League season is full upon us and it holds greater interest among some Raptors fans for the first time in years because of the players involved, how last season ended and what’s in store for this season, I hold there to be two undeniable truths. As you know, I believe you can’t find out for sure who can play from Summer League performances but you can find out who can’t. The measure of his improvement will come in November in a backup NBA role, not in any enhanced Summer League roll. Look, it’s good that they both played well but, in the grand scheme of things, it should have been that way. Finally, this was a very interesting Games for me, the first Summer Olympics since 1988 that I wasn’t at.
