Respectfully, I disagree. The summer has several AAU tournaments, plus USA Basketball trials. And there are greater opportunities to see the players go against one another.
Also, if you see players five times over the summer, but wait until the end to change or update rankings, the last performance could have a greater influence. Updated rankings after seeing players play provides more of a present sense impressive (to borrow from the Rules of Evidence).
my experience tells me that if the evaluator has to change a judgement five times during the course of three months then somebody is being inconsistent................a fundamentally sound player may not shine quite as brightly against better competition but their skills should still be evident otherwise they simply fooled the evaluator into thinking they were better then they really were........
