    Summer league are not.......these are some of the best college players, there's no excuse to allow a damn game winning layup when there's only 5 seconds on the damn clock, that was horrible. No excuse for that.

    On another note, Joey Dorsey is not the Ray Lewis of basketball.....atleast not while defending the basket, this game shows why Chuck Hayes isn't going anywhere. Dorsey isn't ready to defend in this league.

    lol...didnt really matter who won...as long as our key rookies on the roster performs well...

    we should have gotten a legit SG instead of letting 6 foot 0 Robinson play SG...

    would've been good if they won but couldnt really care less that they lost cos its a summer league game...where nate robinson burns everyone else only to become the backup PG on a 20 win Knicks team

    Denver played like 5 wings...and did nothing but attack the basket, up and down....

    Houston ran it's offense, and if Luenan hit that late wide open 3, they win....

    Good play overall, piss poor defense the last 5 seconds....at least FOUL the guy, don't give him a layup.

    Jones has played in the NBA for 5 years. He's pulling a Skita, SL warrior.

    He's been in the league for 5 seasons. He better be doing this kind of stuff in Summer League.

    Good stuff tonight. Very entertaining game.

    When you let the other team penetrate your defense the entire night, you take the chances of getting raped at the FT line.

    In the words of Phil Jackson......."We call this a 'Brokeback Mountain' game because there's so much penetration".

    Why Brook asked Luenan to go left? The last 3 Luenan hit was at the right.

    He only look good shooting FT other than that... Brooks ate his lunch. You can't beat 25 and 10. Dorsey grab 13 boards with 22 points and Green and Maarty did good. Unless Jones become the next wade you will not hear his name again.

    He once had a nasty flying dunk over Yao. I am sure you can find it on youtube.

    Well, at least happy headache for Daryl Morey on how to sort out the over-crowded roster.

    • A TMAC-like (without penetration, but more accurate free throws, fierce dunks and much more younger) Donte Greene
    • A Ben Wallace 2.0 in Joey Dorsey
    • A defense-btter-than-Steve Novak clutch sharpshooter in Maarty Leunen
    • A useful-as-usual Mike Harris in process from change to play from position 3 instead of 4

    Strow did it too, and he sucks so much. Maybe is the Yao dunk curse. Once you do a nasty dunk on Yao you will suck for the rest of your life.
