    Yeah I loved Cook at Oregon. Very good college player. Plus I never had to worry about him leaving early. A PF in a wing body.
    I just can't see him making it int he NBA. Should have a good career in Europe.

    I sat right next to his dad during the Elite 8 game. Not sure they talk to one another but he was still very intense throughout the game.

    As for Dillon Brooks......he has a chance. Hopefully he stays another two years. Right now he is no where near being ready. His outside shot needs to be automatic in college for it to be good in the NBA.

    Dorsey to me has the best chance, but he needs another two years too. Unfortunately I hear he is anxious to go pro. But he better get bigger and stronger first.

    If Rasta doesn't like him, there's not much hope for the guy here.

    I heard that the games will be on NBA TV only. Not on CSN or Rip City Radio like they have been in the past.

    Weak. No NBA TV on Prism and they aren't doing the Summer League streaming online like previous years.

    I just signed up for a 7-day Free trial for Playstation Vue and last night they were showing NBATV summer league games, havn't checked for today but I'd guess they are televising the games again

    Last nights games were on ESPN. NBA TV doesn't seem to be on PS Vue.

    It says today's game is available on ESPN3... Not sure if that is free for everyone or if you need an certain cable subscription to watch. Anyone familiar with it?

    I don't think he is coming back; that's my take from the Olshey press conference. He might be in the summer league but only to showcase him and give him a chance to find a new team.

    Sounds that way. No room for him now. We still probably have one too many centers when you count Ezeli, Plums, Davis, and Leonard. Granted some can play PF, but I think center is still their best position.

    I hate watching Summer League, it's always dominated by some guard hoping to land a d league contract somewhere. There is no system in place and bigs get lost.
