    Shortz was a brick wall there.

    Mills is tired because he's been playing defense this game. His shots are short because he's tired. Like most players, he can't excel at both, offense and defense. He's having an effect on defense--intercepted an inbounds pass just now.

    Apparently Webber has never seen Cunningham play. He's discovering his abilities.

    Armon has forced like four 8-second violations so far this SL. I really like this kid.

    Babbitt looks like he has to break form to shoot the NBA 3.

    It's fun to watch Johnson playing 1-on-1 defense. He can be like glue.

    Yeah that was bad. Didn't really like Mills much either he was taking some jumpers that didn't need to be taken. And like I said cannot really comment on Pendergraph since I didn't see the whole thing, but something like 4/15, really?

    The box score says Deandre Jordan blocked 5 Pendergraph shots. Woof!

    It's to be expected; if a pump fake is apparently beyond your repertoire, all someone has to do to solve you is be tall.

    What was there to solve? Once the ball was in his hands, it was not getting out of his hands until he shoots (forces) it.

    Maybe a better way of putting it, Jeff solved it for him?

    I read the thread. Then I watched the game (on Tape) and I apparently taped the wrong game, because I thought you guys were out of your fucking minds with your embellished comments. IMHO of course.

    JFC it is a summer league game. The comments on how bad Babbitt looked is ridiculous. Sure he missed some wide open shots, but over all I thought he looked pretty good for a 20 year rookie. Does anyone really think Evan Turner sucks because he struggled in summer league? Pendergraf had 14 rebounds. Do you guys think we will be running our offense though him in the regular season.? He played some pretty good D.

    Thank god I am gone for 9 days on vacation. (starting tomorrow) I obviously need one. LOL
