You asked for it…

Needs to be putting up a 20-10-4-3 every night. Or at least Per-36. Hell, just show me that you seriously want to move to the next level. As for the rest: The City, Taser and Pech – show me a little growth from last year (check that, Pech, show me that you don’t have the worst ankles for a 7 ft Euro since Dirk Nowitzki); McGee (and to a lesser extent Vermeenko) – show me you aren’t 5 years away; Dee – show me you can mesh with the young-uns (b/c this is probably who you will be running with off the bench in D.C.).

I’m anticipating this meaningless game WAY too much.

Allright, Young Nick. Time for some throw downs and allyoops, please. Dom, just do as well as you did last year, because you looked like a beast. JaVale, let’s block shots and get rebounds. Dee, let me see you hit some jumpers like the ones on YouTube that look, well, Gilbertesque. Pesh, well, you just rest up there buddy. Andray, don’t get arrested in Vegas.

Who’s going to be switching back and forth between this and the HR Derby?

Brown, Young, McGuire, Blatche, McGee.

Coach is Wes Unseld Jr.

9.5

McGee’s first shot.

McGee’s second shot.

Blatche’s rebounding on that last play.

He got bailed out, but still.

Young’s fadeaways.

I promise I’ll be less negative.

But Blatche looks a lot bigger out there than I expected.

We can call McGee a bust, right? Right?

Gary Forbes!

its flying commercial that has them all done in.

Hard to call a 2nd rounder a bust. Disappointment, yeah. Bust, not really.

Blatche looked to have the jitters but I like his energy. Seriously, that’s a positive. His skills will kick in sooner or later if he brings the intensity.

Okay sorry, third point: NY has GOT to stop the fadeaways.

Does McGee have anything other than a fading bank shot?

But can’t. That was a nice spin though.

You are 7 FEET TALL. Get a rebound, please!

Jerryd Bayless got Tased (as he was fouled)!

That Chris Ellis had a “nice body.”

The same couldn’t be said about JaVale McGee.

They didn’t televise many of the SL games last year, did they? Good for Comcast.

Don’t call sh*t in this league. Good for them, but it’s a war zone out there.

Isn’t making any mistakes, pushing the ball well, playing solid defense.

Really awkward finish though.

Is that some kind of code???

And he’s a finesse player.

It’s just one game. Nick looked pretty bad in his first Summer League game, and he showed a lot this past season.

Just curious.

In a 10 foul limit 40 minute game.

Taking advantage of the open space and finding Blatche.

What did Wes Jr. tell these guys at halftime?

Says JaVale.

By VV.

But any commercial that starts with LeBron and Coach K doesn’t make me feel very warm and fuzzy.

Should I look forward to this or not? Good thing I can fast forward through commercials then.

What happens in Vegas…

They arrived only two hours before the game.

About time.

McGee’s on fire!

Did you guys see the look on Eddie’s face when Young Nick’s “big three” was mentioned. He was like, “Damn kids.” Then he quipped that everybody in summer league thinks they’re Gilbert Arenas. Classic. I love when Eddie trashes the young guys. Same thing Bill Parcells, Joe Gibbs and Pat Riley would say.

is that Portland has the two best players on the court – and I’ve never even heard of one of them until tonight.

Taj McCullogh runs funny, but it’s an inspiring kind of funny run.

Blatche is so weak sometimes.

We have a chance, but can’t get the rebound.

Mad props tonight. Got the guys fired up tonight after a seriously rough trip to Vegas, and called JaVale’s number on that three at the end. What a guy!

Doesn’t look like we have any budding stars on the summer league this year – Gil I hope your knees are feelin fine!

They did get in only 2 hours before the game because their flight got canceled just like mine did going to Cleveland. They’re just lucky the didnt get welcomed into vegas by a giant LBJ billboard/poster type thing.

because we won, summer league results mean a TON. If you guys had won, it would have meant nothing.

That’s just how it works.
