    I don't think any of those players played in the summer league 3 seasons in a row, but at least DMo's persistent.

    So he came over a year too early? No biggie.

    Hopefully his value is shooting through the roof! Hasn't Sarver hinted in the past that he's a fan of Motie?

    summer league looks sketchy as hell. Rockets with a 1-2 record are in the championship, while the 0-3 hornets were in the semifinals..

    Go with tired. And Monday it's 3 games in three days. He's a leader out there.

    I would NEVER use the word lazy with Canaan. You shouldn't either. Top score the last week.

    This is Dmo's second Summer League. Didn't play last year because of his Lithuanian team.

    I agreed totally. Canaan will get into the rotation IMO. He'll be a scoring fireplug off the bench.

    I believe it...Lol.

    The D-League will be good for Nick. He can develop his skills instead of spending his rookie year rotten away on the bench.

    Glen Rice, Jr. won MVP... DMo named to first team, however.

    I love Canaan as an AB type, instant offense off the bench, but he needs to play beside a creator b/c his passing, court vision and especially defense are still quite lacking. And those wide open lay ups he always seems to miss are maddening. Nick is not ready for heavy minutes but his D will get him more opportunities sooner than Canaan did.

    I was really surprised when Morey didn't draft Glen Rice Jr last year.
