Have you guys been watching the Summer League games? Jeremy Lamb is the real deal!!! He does NOT look like Kevin Martin at all. He creates his own shots and doesn't rely on getting fouled. What I love most is that he plays with an attitude that is so rare in rookies. He shoots the ball as if he wills the ball in the hole. His moves are diverse and not just a spot up jump shooter. He looks like a much more complete player who will become a "Rudy Gay" type of star. Maybe not 1st tier like Kobe and Dwight, but this will be reminiscent of our losing Gay for Battier a number of years back. I know that there is a strong likelihood that he will be gone if Dwight comes (which I'll be okay with) BUT if there is any chance of us adding more assets to keep him, I'd tell Morey to try his damnedest! Lamb is gonna be a BEAST!!! (DMo will too, but I think he's gonna stay a Rocket)
I'm every bit as excited as anyone about the rookies we currently have, but I would caution about getting too excited too soon. Remember Kelvin Cato.
Lamb and DMo really impressed me today. Terrence Jones played well too, but I'm hoping we can keep Lamb, Parsons, Dmo if a trade does go down for Dwight. Everyone else just seem like every other role player.
Lamb seems to have an all around game. Can shoot, rebound, score, dribble, create. I don't really see a weakness.
I remember this guy kicked ass is summer league... http://www.nba.com/playerfile/luke_harangody/ Now look.
All of our Rookies looked good this evening especially the new jersey I will get as soon as it comes to stores #20 D-MO! T. Jones looked awesome as well, Lamd was silky smooth! C Webb was all over D-Mo's sack! Praising him in every way he can. Im all smiles for this summer league team
He was good in the 1st game, and I hope we keep him. But chill dude, how did he "will the ball" for 16 points? Lol
