    Better shooter but not the lockdown defender Mase was. Of course, I don't think he took all the steroids that turned Mase from a guard into a tank.

    Wroten has looked really good during his first couple games. Almost a triple-double last game and 19 pts on just 9 shots. A 6'6" PG? I mean c'mon really? I hate Huskies, too. Tells you I really think highly of Wroten.

    Josh Selby's dynamic offensively. I've always been high on his game. Definitely not a PG though. In today's NBA it doesn't matter though.

    Summer League is fun to watch guys that have played in the NBA work on things they normally would never do in an NBA game. Kwahi Leonard going isolation and taking his man off the dribble. Faried chucking jumpers all day.

    I really liked Wroten. Dude put up pretty solid numbers as a freshman in the Pac-12. I know the Pac-12 was weak last year, but still. He's going to be a solid player in the league.

    Why do older people say "You just don't want to be a jump shooter" when they should be saying "You don't just want to be a jump shooter" or "You don't want to be just a jump shooter?"

    Mike Rice says it, and I've heard a lot of older commentators do it too.. Is there any specific reason? Just a pet peeve of mine..

    Hell, they could say "You don't want to just be a jump shooter" as well.

    Harrison Barnes and John Henson both here watching fellow Tar Heel draftees Tyler Zeller and Kendall Marshall go head-to-head.

    Nice to see
