Thanks Clutch! Man, if Radmanovic is as good as it looks he will be, DAMN!! He could look like a steal throughout the season. But then again, this is a summer league game, and you can't use it as too good of a gauge, but all I hear about Radman is positive. I really hope he does well too. I mean, anyone who is airlifted from his home as a child because of bombings deserves some success. I wonder if Stromile Swift will be anything this upcoming season. He's got the athleticism to be a very awesome player, but it sounds like he's still very limited. His game reminds me of Shawn Kemp's, back when Kemp was the best PF in the league. I'd really like to see him succeed as well. ------------------ CC.net's most courteous driver Oh yeah, and I'm looking for a job right now, so hire me please
<quote>Tried to con some of the staff into giving me some box scores. "Ahem I am so from the so and so journal...", but got a lot of blank stares. Damn, I knew I should not have worn cargo pants and sneaks. </quote> Dope! You don't go up and ask for the box scores. The front general-admission rows on the sides have tables set up, and that's where a lot of scouts, etc., sit. Grab a spot at one of the tables, or in one of the rows just behind them, and have a notebook or a cell phone out. Then raise your hand when the teenage staffer comes up the aisle handing out box scores. That's how I got mine, anyway. ------------------
You gotta take it all with a grain of salt, however. Much of this talent is sub-NBDL level and any decent NBA player is going to look really good against these players. Heck, even Bo Outlaw lights them up as the 3rd option (behind Penny and another) on his team - 20+pts, 20+ rebs, and 10 blks is not uncommon; a recent boxscore: 22pts, 20rebs, 10blks, 8asts. Last summer, he put up several quadruple-doubles, and we know how bad Bo is on offense. ------------------
During the Rockets Draft War Room video clip they talk about the Rockets possibly trading pick 13 and 23, I believe, for the Sonics' 12th pick...Had they done this, do you think it would have been to draft Radmanovic? ------------------ http://www.cld9.com/chris/nbau.html
Remember how Najero looked like the next coming last year in preseason? We'll see how he looks in the regular season. ------------------
Better yet, remember Cato in the pre-season? ------------------ "Yes, it's true. Kelvin Cato DOES have plenty of heart. I think the downside of Hakeem's six weeks absence is the upside of Kelvin Cato's emergence as a power in the NBA." jscmedia - 12/2/99 7:13pm : the off-season is truly a great time to reflect.
Exactly..... Najera, Cato, now Swift have all torn it up in the summer leagues, only to collapse or ride the pine wave all year. You never know, Radman might be for real. Judgement day is coming!!!! ------------------ My doctor says I am bipolar. I am going to get a second opinion. I have never had intimate desires for polar bears.
