Houston Rockets vs Phoenix Suns [Las Vegas Summer League Today at 5pm!!!]

This is the way Ric Bucher saw this game:
Gani Lawal just stuffed Jordan Hill in the basket, the capper to a Big Boy-ing Clinic. And Earl Clark raining 3s. Glimmers for Phoenix.

My picture was grainy, but it looked like the boys wuz ballin. I didn't see the first half-- did Leunen do anything? A Johnson did some good, and J Hill, PP, JT, Bud definitely looked like NBA players (thank goodness). PP looks like a PTPer! I hope he can stay perfect from long distance!

 

I trust Lowry to not pass it to Taylor once the season starts unless Taylor is in a position to take a high percentage shot.

 

not only that. we will have a deeper and better bench than the Fakers
mark my words.

 

Leunen proved he can shoot it from NBA range... not much of anything else.

 

Haha Phat Pat, I like that, where have you been Mr. Graduate?

 

Well, I guess he missed the final score and dominating 2nd half performance by the Rockets. I guess glimmers is his way of saying they got their ass kicked.

 

LOL

I see how Bucher watches basketball, just the highlights. Prbly spends too much time talking to his sources(Following Woj's twitter...) to watch these games.

 

I saw this and asked him if he hadn't seen the prior two plays where Jordan took care of business.

 

the game absolutely shows Patterson's potential. He already has more range than Landry does right now and If his post-up game is anywhere near where landry's was then just damn.

And the reason Taylor did so much on his own is because he didn't get a lot of time to play last year and they don't run a lot of plays in summer league.

 

JT was making his own plays

 

Hhahah wasssaaaaaa Q!!! I've been good dawg living in Cali man I'm back home in htown for couple weeks.

 

Rich can have his opinion but Domination leaves no room for misinterpretation. it just makes him sound foolish.

 

Fellas im very impressed so far.

 

Good for you cause I am too. :grin:

 

Taylor appears to have made great strides, much improved jumpshot to go along with his ability to get to the basket. Easily the best player on the court.

Patterson looks to be a great pick, very good jumpshot and more range than I expected. Looks like his outside stroke will compliment Yao's interior game.

Hill has improved his post game and has a nice touch around the basket. Doesn't seem to have a lot of hops, but has good mobility.

Budinger strggled with his outside shot, scoring most of his points going to the basket. Wasn't as impressive as his last SL debut, but very solid. He missed 3 wide open 3's that were automatic last year.

 

Taylor wasn't lying about his shooting... :grin:

Reminds me of how Kobe used to take every shot when he first came into the league. But I think he's more similar to Dwade with the way he attacks the basket and gets to the line. One can only hope..
