Well Jerryd looked good at the beginning of the game, but he went away from that control in the second half... he looks like the same guy we saw last year. Forcing things. I think it's because he has zero faith in his teammates.
I was talking about Koponen. Not that I think Jeter is ready. But I was responding to you thinking Kop would come over. He is not even close to NBA ready yet. If he works hard, maybe 2 years.
Yea whenever he wasn't out there with Cunningham or Pendergraph after a while he gave up and started pushing it to much. That made it too easy for Toronto. Hopefully it will be a bit better when he has some guys that can finish around him.
22 Points 7 Assists 4 Rebounds 6 Turnovers Not bad, really. Could have done better, especially if he had some better teammates. Also, good debut from Cunningham and Pendergraph, they will be nice benchwarmers.
It was good to see how much Bayless has grown. I thought he did really well for the most part at looking and finding guys in shooting position - and in the regular season guys will actually hit shots. 7 assists in summer league (where they tend to miss a few) exceeded my expectations. Maybe work on TO's though. And I thought both Cunningham and Pendergraph looked pretty good too. Don't care about the rest.
Guys, perspective. We want to be a contender, and Bayless is exciting folks because he had 7 assists - despite 6 turnovers?!
