    I doubt Mike Harris makes the team, or even the pre-season team. We started ML over him today, so it looks like we're going to cut our losses with him after this game.

    This summerleague team outside of a couple of players, hasn't been that impressive..

    I doubt this has any bearing on anything...

    IIRC Carl Landry came off the bench most of last year's summer league...

    Yeah,it's good he is trying to take advantage of the King's weak defense. He sure needs to improve on defense and for a such a tall guy he is virtually non-existent on the boards.He is going to be sitting on the bench or in the NBDL a lot this year unless he starts getting serious about getting better.

    22 FT attempts to 8 of the Rockets......Kings have more missed FTs than the Rockets even have makes.

    Houston doesn't have a problem scoring, but their defense is absolutely horrible.

    I bet Brooks would drive to the hoop every play if he wasn't trying to improve his PG skills.

    It would be a major shock if he doesn't get an invite to camp. As far as getting a spot on the 15 man roster, I agree with you. But it depends on how much Morey pares down the fluff by getting rid of Novak, Head, Francis and/or Chuck.

    He is doing better today with his passing.I agree with you,he would be driving a lot to the basket otherwise.

    In every game its like this. He seems to have to really try to be a distributor and run plays, but scoring comes really naturally to him. Yes, he may in time get better, but the fact that it just not seem natural for him makes me think he will never be a starter.

    For pre-season team, is it also 15 players or is it alittle more. I don't think he'll be part of the team if it's 15 players, the spots would go to the rookie or maybe Barrera.

    His turnovers are down today and assists are up. Atleast there is some improvement there. I'm calling him to revert back to scoring Brooks for the last play of the 3rd and the last minute or 2 of the 4th.

    I knew Justin Williams was a bad free thrower but he is worse then I thought.
    He might make it to pre-season but he isn't going to make it to the team IMO. He needs to put in a lot of work to get back in the league.

    Fantastic pass by Barrera to Williams that Brooks should have made but didn't. I really like this guy.
