Summer League: Rockets vs. Wizards 07/13/2007

Nope ... the Aggie Antanas Kavalauskas made a couple nice moves

 

He shows some flashes but not as impressive as AB or Harris. Do not think we have a spot for him.

 

AB is amazing. Rebounding, dishing the ball with nifty passing, shooting the ball and making clutch shots...the kid can do it all.

Looks like Coach A knew what he was doing when he drafted this kid...

 

haha ... don't worry I don't think there is a spot for him either.

I'm just happy to see him make a few baskets. I'm really hoping he can get a job in the D-League somewhere though. I know he's seen his mom like one or two times in the last 4 years, but if he can get a job in the US, he'll be able to bring his mom over to America and that is really his goal. He's a really good guy, and I certainly hope he can at least make that happen.

 

Very exciting to watch...total playmaker.

Another nice pass by AB. Damn.

 

Brooks is making all the right plays to let team score.

the #4 PG is a bust.

 

these referees really suck at what is and what is not a foul..


VERY BAD refs.

 

I followed his game pretty tight before the Scola trade and gladly found he has some skills. Wish him the best...

 

I should also add that while Landry is not a 'standout' at any one thing, he really is fundamentally sound on both ends of the court. He strikes me as a very intelligent player and a diligent worker, and a terrific FT shooter which is great to have along with Yao's stellar FT shooting in the front court.

Brooks, Landry and Harris are keepers. The rest (including Novak) I wouldn't lose much sleep over if they were traded/released.

 

Good game by the Rockets.

 

Is it just me or does AB look like Chriss Rock?

 

That was fun...looks like we have a nice young nucleus that will be around for a while. Good stuff.

 

Good game, but Elston Turner focused on the win and failed to give Elyahu sufficient minutes to develop himself. I hope he doesn't ruin the kid's career like Van Gundy did to Spanoulis.

 

Wow, nice comeback, nice game.

Aaron Brooks is pretty much the ish in the summer league, I hope he can do the same in the NBA.

Novak was better tonight, had some nice 3s.

Landry makin the free throws rain, just needs to improve his rebounding and he'll be Chuck Hayes Xtreme.

 

Man I hope AB's game carries over to the NBA game level. JLIII also did well last year but AB does pass better.

 

Aaron Brooks, well, seems like we got a winner. How many dimes did he net?

 

Eliyahu is heading back to his country anyway to play for his national team.

 

But he gave Newley minutes, like JVG let Head play. Conspiracy!

 

"How many dimes did he net?"

Only 4 tonight but it should have been atleast 4-5 more as he set guys up for some open shots that were just missed. He also had a couple really nice passes to Landry to set him up for Layups that he was fouled on also.

 

Mike Harris might be an absolute beast in summer league, but I don't trust him to be as effective in the NBA. Landry, Novak, and AB are definately coming to camp though.
