    By the action on the board tonight I think after last game 4.99 seemed like a lot of money

    I'd love to watch the 06 summer league games again. I haven't tried to find them, but I bet it will be near impossible to.

    One of the rare times CJ loses the handle.

    One thing you can say about the summer league roster, there's not a great 3pt shooter on the roster

    Bobby Brown is pissing me off. Every time he gets the ball he dribbles. He never just passes or shoots. He's a ball-stopper. Please, we've seen enough. Give someone else a chance.

    Wow, my two goats combine for a nice pick and roll - Freeland scores on a sweet little Brown pass.

    Barton really doesn't belong in the NBA, he is a playground baller, he does not make a team better. I dont want another selfish Crawford on this team. Fun to watch though, just not if you want to win.

    McCollum is not the answer off the bench either, he just doesnt have "it". He has had 1 good summer league game, where he just happened to be hot from 3, and 3 crappy games.

    WAY too much blind hate for Leonard. I am not saying he is playing "great" or ever will be a solid starter I hoped he would be, but he really is playing pretty well. He is much improved (fundamentally) over last year. If you actually watch him objectively, he is playing pretty good. Playing physical in the paint, challenging shots, boxing out MUCH better, and just being overall more active and engaged. Add to that we have no PG and a selfish player in Barton, he even steals rebounds from Leonard/Freeland. Yeah, Leonard should be more aggressive on the glass and grab boards before Barton gets to it, but he is not a natural rebounder and Barton is a very good rebounder for a guard. Leonard is never going to fill up the stats sheet with this summer squad.

    My 3 cents.....

    I don't hate Leonard, he's playing better in some areas and tonight is his best game in a long, long time but he has had some really terrible perfornances up until this game and that is being objective. I disagree that it's the roster that's holding Meyers back though, he should eat up the summer league 5s and he really hasn't
