Yea they are. 6:21 for 13 points and 4 assist? Are you kidding me is that minute mark wrong? That is a man amongst boys right there.
He leads the game in assists, had numerous good passes that the players couldn't finish, and he's controlling the game. He's a much different player than last year, when he just kept running to the basket trying to get fouled. Bayless, in this game at least, looks like a Chauncey Billups.
Hmmm, maybe I shouldn't have given Blazerbeliever the benefit of the doubt. I thought he was being sarcastic.
It's rough when the only guy who can actually shoot is Cunningham.... other than that, Jerryd doesn't really have anyone else to pass to.
Ha I just tried to log into the NBA page for watching the game and it won't even come up. They must be running the web page off of the same bandwidth of the feeds. They should hire some talent that has done these things before sometime....
I can tell, that like last year, some people are reading way too much into these summer league games.
I am really surprised that there was not even an attempt of a low-post pick and roll with Pendergraph. Maybe he is just not the right player for that - but we are seeing classic McMillan offense here with Bayless/Cunningham replacing Roy/Aldridge. Lots of pick and pops, not a lot of pick and rolls.
Yea that is why I was laughing when Bayless said his goal was 10 assist per game in the Summer league. Most teams don't have any players who can catch and finish, let alone 1 or 2, and then they have only played together a few hours. On the other hand, so has the defenses I guess. Anyhow, I found most summer league play is pretty ugly. Good luck on those 10 assist, almost halfway there!
Cunningham's not really giving anyone else a CHANCE to shoot. He shot 12 shots, which means that the rest of the team other than Bayless only shot 16. At least he made half of 'em in the first half... Ed O.
Perhaps, but isn't it at least nice to see Jerryd comfortable out there running the team like a more traditional point guard? He's getting people setup in their spots, he's attacking the lane and kicking and finding open guys and he just looks comfortable out there. If the opposite were true there'd probably be a lot more cause for concern.
I swear.. more people are in this game thread than there were during times in the regular season. Crazy!
