This game started on time for the first time. I turned it on at about 3:10 or 3:12 and the score was 14-6. Johnson is no McMillan clone. Good, good scorer around the hoop. Babbitt brought it today, not just making a couple of shots with moves, but also a couple of nice assists right to the basket. I said about 3 games ago that he can pass. Is it my imagination, or do we play more defense than the opponents? Baron even has made a shot. Krabbenhoft set up a play to Cunningham under the basket. These are good players, especially so far today. Have I jinxed them with all this praise? Now they'll suck.
Mills won't make the team. I hope they announce it now and don't bring him to camp, so he has lots of time to look for another team.
Babbit has much better handles and passing skills than Webster. He's better at getting to hoop and to the free throw line also. His supposed "great shooting" hasn't revealed itself thus far in summer league. I would say his shooting skill so far is on par with Webster. I hope Babbit can find his shot sometime between now and the start of the regular season.
i think he's been slightly overwhelmed with the whole nba thing, but seems to be gradually getting more comfortable. i've been pleasantly surprised how he actually likes to drive and get to the line or kick it out. already better at that particular aspect of offense than Outlaw or Webster.
This is the best broadcast so far! Because the obligatory long, long interview while I'm trying to watch the game only lasted half a quarter instead of a full quarter! The first half of the 3rd quarter. Tom Thibodeau. All he did was list his good players. Who cares. In the last few games it lasted the entire 3rd quarter.
