    Dan langhi would have been so much better in this era he was a very long athletic white boy I really liked his game but he was ultra soft his summer league was epic but most here now prob were too young to remember that guy.

    I was at the pre season game with my pops we thought this guy was gonna be the next real deal great rocket. He was a monster that game, looked like a deandre Jordan clone big athletic and had some long arms. If he would have stayed in the gym and worked on his body he could have been a pretty decent center. He did have some 10/10 years with the rockets. I remember him playing next to Yao for a season which was pretty funny cause we had two big guys running around down low.

    Funny thing was that he fooled me too because I thought he was the next big thing I created my handle in his honor. Steve Francis, steviefranchise, sf3....catmobley were all taken already......

    Jesus, lets not overreacted based off two or three summer league plays.

    I highly doubt he's in the rotation next year unless injuries are a factor.

    Remember that time Donte Green went off for 40 in Summer League. Yeah, he currently plays in the eastern conference, faaaar eastern conference for Al-Nasr of the Arab Emirates.

    Meanwhile, Terrence Jones played tonight....14 points on 16 shots and 6 rebounds in 39 minutes against the Vancouver Volcanoes.

    Without Smith coming back, Harrell could very easily be the 2nd best PF on the roster already.

    Thread is an overreaction but it's clear Harrell has more upside than Dorsey and Dorsey was a contributor during the season. The fact that we can replace Dorsey with a potentially better, cheaper option is exciting.

    Wow, he must really be trying to get better. 3s and FTs need to improve.

    Maybe the Vancouver Volcanoes are just really good. I think they have some D league guys so that explains why Jones would struggle.

    Reminds me of Faried but like Faried you can't run a play for him. That's pretty much the only bad thing I can say about the guy. Hustle, high motor, athletic -- he's a great young talent to be sure.

    I did not follow Langhi. Was a long time ago...

    But you got to work hard and ride the pine and hope for your opportunity.

    And Dleague was not all that popular in the past either. Dleague really helps player grow.

    I hope for a more athletic and better shooting Ben Wallace type.
