    NBA Summer League, I think. Just look up NBA Summer in the app store.

    This has happened between us before. Do they not teach what an analogy is in school anymore?

    The hyperbolic analogy you made is similar to comparing punching someone and killing someone.

    I bet he'll get beaten off the dribble by fast 3's and 2's, and abused on the block by physical 3's. I have a feeling his size and lack of lateral footspeed will make him average at very best.

    Just curious, why do you think he has a "lack of lateral footspeed?" Is it from watching him play? Bad reviews on a web site? nbadraft.net doesn't mention it.

    So we're expecting Lamb to light him up? (If Barton actually guards Lamb)

    And one is ok, but the other isn't? Well, it is as long as it can be justified by corporation not telling us the truth, right?

    You didn't make the point you thought you did.

    His combine numbers on NBADraft.com are apparently a mistake (they copied Lamb's onto his profile iirc); he was actually pretty slow on everything. It's in some Draft thread.

    Perhaps not, but did I at least prove I know what an analogy is?
