Doug Gottlieb: "(After watching) Cooper Flagg, I would think you would say 'that kid must think he's really, really good cause he takes a lot of shots.' But part of it is you're never going to get to that place of being a dominant player unless you act and try and play like a dominant player. That's really what your rookie year, high draft pick, Summer League is about. It's a little bit about the final score, but it's a lot about those 1 or 2 shots that keep you coming back. You take the golf analogy - he doesn't have to shoot a 65, but he has to look like he could shoot a 65."

Doug Gottlieb reacts to Cooper Flagg's first NBA appearance in his Summer League debut and explains why Flagg's game was a positive showing despite the rough shooting night. Plus, Doug gives his thoughts on Bronny James' Summer League debut.
