    This will be fun and interesting to watch, Houston's new Euro C should come out ahead given his Euro experience and how well he did playing there. It will be an excellent test for Meyers to show himself and us as fans where he is at, Meyers is very raw so I am keep my expectations low, will be very interesting to watch.

    Leonard took 9 shots on Sunday and was very efficient. (3-4 from the fields and 8-10 from the line) But like our discussions during the half of year win Oden was healthy, I would not run too
    many more plays for him. (maybe 3-4 more shots) Let him focus on defense, rebounding and setting screens. My expectations are low as well for him this first year.

    I would run very few plays for Leonard. I think you just throw it up there and let him go get it.

    What's the point of that in Summer League? Now is the time to try and experiment.

    I'm much more interested to see if Leonard has any ability to slow down Donatas. The guy was unstopable against Sacramento and Toronto but for some reason was useless against Washington
