I wouldn't be too concerned about who dominates SL games.  A lot of players just aren't going to be able to shine when they are surrounded by turds.  These games are U G L Y!  A lot of really good NBA players aren't going to look great in SL because they are playing with teammates that don't understand how to use them, and they are playing a different style  and role than they will in regular season games.

The contact the refs are letting go out front is insane.  The rookies will foul out in the first quarter if they do that in a regular season game.  They also are letting a lot of contact go on the shot.  In the LAC game this morning Wolters got hammered on three straight drives but because he was making the shots the refs just let it go.  That probably isn't happening in the regular season unless it is a Cav or Heat doing the fouling.

Im just glad we didn't trade for him. M. Turner looks to be the guy worth the huge asking price.

I liked Winslow's demeanor in these games, the guy has the same look on his face the whole game.

Stanley Johnson looks pretty good. Better than Winslow actually. Winslow seems to have trouble getting passed his defender. I'm actually surprised by that.

I'm interested to see if Dante Exum shows any improvement.

He looked pretty good to me. His first step is no joke.

Exum looked more aggressive tonight and his first step is for real.

He still doesn't have a great jumpshot.  He still reminds me of Leandro Barbosa.  Maybe he'll be a rich man's version of that. 

Smart looked much more in control of his team's offense.  Smart looked like a floor general to me.  Exum is a lanky dude with a nice first step.

3rd straight 20+ point game for Aaron Gordon.

6-12 on three pointers for those three games.

He is going to be good.
