Wizards vs. Clippers: Summer League Game 2 open thread

Tonight's game against the Clippers should be more of a challenge than last night's game. For one thing, the Clippers have a lot more top-level talent than the Warriors do. Their roster features first-round picks Al-Farouq Aminu and Eric Bledsoe, as well as promising big man DeAndre Jordan, second-round pick Willie Warren and the ever-famous (not really) Sofoklis Schortsanitis, aka Baby Shaq. That's a very deep roster for Summer League.
For another, it'll be an interesting challenge for John Wall. Granted, anytime you have as impressive a debut as Wall did, the second game is a challenge. But tonight, he'll go up against Bledsoe, his college teammate with whom he shared a backcourt. I think it's safe to say that Bledsoe probably knows Wall's tendencies better than anyone out here. Now, the reverse is also probably true, but it'll be interesting to see how Wall responds to some familiarity.
Finally, it'll be an interesting challenge for everyone else on the roster. Nick Young is going to play tonight, and I'm guessing he'll start alongside Wall in the backcourt and relegate Cartier Martin or Raymar Morgan to the bench. (My bet is it's Raymar who sits). How will Wall bring Young into the fold tonight? Will Young adequately play off Wall, or will he break the offense too much? It'll be interesting to watch, that's for sure.
Tip time is 10 p.m. on Comcast Sports Net. A couple other notes:
- For more on Cartier Martin, scroll down. Or, just click here. I definitely had a lot of fun sitting in the locker room and breaking his performance down yesterday.
- Because I can't give up this issue, I spent some time checking out Alonzo Gee with the Spurs as they took on the Timberwolves. Gee didn't have a particularly great game, shooting just 4-12 and committing five turnovers, but he did have eight rebounds and one highlight two-handed slam in the half court. He also played pretty good defense on Wesley Johnson, something Spurs assistant coach Mike Budenholzer noted afterwards.
- For his part, Gee didn't really discuss much of what happened in D.C., only saying that he was happy they gave him the opportunity and that he couldn't pass up going back to such a strong organization in the Spurs. I got the sense that he didn't really want to move backwards here, because in general, he clammed up a lot more in the interview than I remembered doing in D.C. Oh well. I wish him well, though I really do believe the Wizards could have had him if they were willing to make more of a commitment than the Spurs did (i.e. a guaranteed contract next year).

Over/Under on John Wall alley-oops to JaVale McGee?

To McGee or overall?

Yeah I misread it and thought you had responded to me
4 is high for the over/under for one player to another though – even in summer league. i’ll definitely take the under on that one (and hope I’m wrong).

I would put it at 3 again – taking the under on that one today though.

I set it at 3 last night. You should make this a daily thing.

He is not a product of the human species. He is really a creation of a building contractor, made of cinderblocks and some type of flesh-like covering. Throw in Kelly Gregg at nose tackle and behemoth rookie Terrence Cody and you have something truly frightening."
Lets see how Wall does
Will he limit the turnovers and still get 24 points and 8 assists?
Will Javale get more alley-oops?
How will Wall play with Nick Young?
Will Jerome Randle get playing time?
Cant wait to see.

I agree that we're conditioned to expect the other shoe to drop...
But I’m thinking getting the No.1 pick may have broken the curse.
Takes a little more than that...

Nick Young
Is a career backup. And not a particularly good one at that. This is Summer League, and he still can’t stand out.
He's a decent spot up shooter
I think playing with Wall might help him find his niche. NY just needs to stay under control.

He still looks incredibly skinny
Man the Clippers suck...
Oh Al Thornton here??? He need to suit up…
I think he is legit...
But he needs to prove to the fans that he can be a solid SF…
If he learns how to pass out of the blocks sometimes....then yes
But he’s sometimes becomes a black hole. Love his agression, but needs to kick it out sometimes.

I want my NBAtv ... sorry Phil and Buck, but ...
Sorry but this CSN experiment doing the play by play remotely is a totally failure. Phil and Buck are great live, but this is doing them and us a disservice. NBAtv is blacked out, at least on FIOS in Howard County … and not only do Phil and Buck not really know what is going on every play, but we’re missing what appears to be a very long interview with Leonsis on NBA TV … and to top if off while commenting on Steve Blake going to the Lakers, Phil guesses that he will likely be starter there if Derek Fisher doesn’t re-sign … 12 hours after it’s been widely circulated that IS going back to the Lakers. At least stay up to date on major signings….even though it is the summer.

His mid range jumper already looks better though.
A good PG doesn’t HAVE to have a 3 point shot, I mean, Rondo can’t shoot 3s. In fact, I’m more than happy that he is focusing on other parts of his game.

Yet too see much out of any rookie that will get playing time well maybe Lance Stephenson, but thats about it…
agreed although
rondo can make silly passes. like video game passes. but he also has three hall of famers on his team and 3 years in the nba under his belt.
by dan the man on Jul 12, 2010 11:52 PM EDT up reply actions
of course Wall isnt...
…a Rondo’s level yet, but he has a much higher upside….which is pretty amazing because I think Rondo is already a top 3 guard in the NBA>>>>
?
1. Kobe
2. CP3
3. Rondo
4. Deron
5. Wade
6. Nash
7. Parker
8. Roy
9. Rose
10. Billups
Nah, not really
I think you could safely rank him over Billups
possibly Roy and Parker. The rest of those guys are obvs. better.
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
CP3, Rose, Deron are better
I think he does fall around 4.
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
This passage from Rondo's bio on Wikipedia says it all... he is a top three PG
In the 2010 NBA Playoffs, the Celtics defeated the Miami Heat in five games and faced the Cleveland Cavaliers in the second round. In Game 2, Rondo dished out 19 assists tying his career-high and also tying a franchise record for most assists in a playoff game.65 In Game 4, he recorded his fourth postseason triple-double along with a playoff career-high 29 points and 18 rebounds.66 He joined Wilt Chamberlain and Oscar Robertson as the only other player in NBA history to have 29 points, 18 rebounds and 13 assists in a playoff game.67 The Celtics eventually defeated the Cavaliers and the Orlando Magic in the Eastern Conference Finals in six games.68 In the Finals, the Celtics once again faced the Los Angeles Lakers, a team they previously beat in 2008. In Game 2, Rondo recorded his second triple-double of the postseason (19 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists),69 however, despite Rondo’s performance, the Celtics succumbed to the Lakers in seven games.70
Yes, he had a great series of games
so did World B. Free and Adrian Dantley. Heck, even my former handle Ledell Eackles put in some amazing performances.
He plays the best defense of the guys we’ve mentioned, but it’s a blessing that he ended up on the Celtics and Tom Thibodeau. I don’t think you can call a guy top three if he is the guy on your team that your opponent cheats off of.
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
We can agree to disagree
That’s cool, I don’t think you can call a guy without much of a jump shot “top 3.”
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
I put him in the 2nd tier
with Nash, Parker, Billups, Rose, Kidd?, Harris?? but after Paul and Deron.
jesus
that is such a hackneyed argument. If you put any of those guys with three hall of famers and a top 15 center, I think they have rings.
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
CVC...wall is not stronger than rondo.
rondo can bang in the blocks for rebounds….
and i still love your naive optimism for gilbert
Did Cassell tell Wall to stop with the alley-ops to McGee???
Yet to see a attempt…
how's our rebounding this game?
haven’t been watching that long but didnt see many good rebounds out of our bigs
we need a "box out" coach
Our positioning swings between serviceable and awful.

dang nick young feeling it tonight
he better start feeling it more often than not
He's proven he can score
when having set plays run consistently for him in Summer League.

Cut him right? Lol.
"However, the true greatness of the Ravens’ line lies in their malevolence, led by right end Haloti Ngata. Simply put, Ngata can’t be blocked by mere mortals. He is not a product of the human species. He is really a creation of a building contractor, made of cinderblocks and some type of flesh-like covering. Throw in Kelly Gregg at nose tackle and behemoth rookie Terrence Cody and you have something truly frightening."
booker is playing well
He is using his long arms well on defense
What's the score?
Haven’t been watching. How’s Wall doing?

Is he really your boy? Please tell me something that will make up for his “defense”

Booker is still perfect !!
4 for 4 tonight so far…
some teams just cant catch a break...
one would think they would get at least 1 solid player from the lottery.
well they still got griffin i guess
thats true
but they haven’t gotten that superstar…
Because he outweighs him by 65 lbs.
Getting buckets since 2003.

Whos number 8 for the wiz?
Hes getting killed by Aminu
Ya, he's still settling down, and we'll see that at the next level as well, less, but probably still be ironing that out

Doesn't seem to be much penetration without Wall in the game...

Guys, guys, guys...
We are absolutely dominating a team that has some definite NBA talent. This is incredible!!! I really feel like a new era is beginning here.

Marco Bellinelli
blew up in summer league two years ago.
I’m going to wait until we start seeing some real defense.

I was serious in my points, but it sounds a bit more optimistic about the season than I am on reread, haha. This could be a lot better, obviously, I’m just enjoying the little things after last season

Please, stay optimistic
we need you to balance MR and myself. Now talk me into Hilton Armstrong.

booker looks real solid
there was a lot of hate draft night for no reason i think
I think it was because of what could've been
It really seemed like we could get him later and keep the other pick. But right, once things get rolling, it’s about who you have and not where you picked him

I'd also add
That he is a bit of a tweener. If you didn’t see the excellent post on here about players with his wingspan and their NBA success, you should dig it up.
But I really like the dude. I hope he succeeds.

Success rate of #23 picks probably isn't great either.

This is what happens
when the other team turns over the ball like we do…two wins 45+ turnovers? No bueno…but I guess that’s summer league.

for just picks it sounds like
I’m surprised McHale is allowed back in Minnesota.
The artist formerly known as ledellforlife.
in fact
I find this entire thing indefensible. Kahn keeps turning one move into another move. Trading Jefferson for a TPE, well that’s great if you can trust Kahn to actually use the TPE correctly. Stupid stupid stupid.

Booker is impressing me.
Nice to see Caner-Medley have a good game too.
And Bledsoe looked real good too.
Booker looking like a good hustle player
intrigues me even more about Seraphin. I think Javale is going to have a lot of bruises this year.

Only seen short highlights
Wall looking good, Very quick in transition,
Seen a Booker dunk though no action from Hamady
