    link to Cav's roster

    Talk about a stacked summer league team:

    PG - LeBron James
    SG - Dejaun Wagner
    SF - Darius Miles
    PF - Carlos Boozer
    C - DeSagana Diop


    That team should dominate the other summer league teams. Unfortunately for Cleveland that is almost what their regular season starting lineup will be. ;) Ricky Davis and Big Z will help.

    Please post any other Summer League rosters you find here.

    Pistons roster but no Darko?

    I'm intersted to see if Kasib Powell gets picked up by anyone.

    Miles is playing in the Summer league? Then why can't Griffin play in ours? I heard that 3 year players can't play in the summer league, Miles is going into his 4th....

    Dasgana Diop should not be allowed to play because he's neither a rookie nor a sophmore. Right?

    I don't think their is a rule about only rookies and sophs being allowed to play. Cedrick Henderson is playing for the Piston team and he has 5 years NBA exp.

    That's what I thought as well from what was posted on the bbs. That is obviously NOT the case here with Miles playing.

    Griffin should be PLAYING (not just practicing) on the Rockets summer league team. He needs the playing time to develop his moves.

    Interesting that DeMarr Johnson is on the Grizzlies Summer League Team. I hope he can make it back from his devestating car crash injuries.

    I think it's that after the first year or two, teams can't force them to play.

    Here's the Warriors' summer-league roster (note the first name on the list, Rockets fans):

    52 Jason Collier C 7-0 260 9/8/77 Georgia Tech '00 3
    10 Mike Dunleavy F 6-9 221 9/15/80 Duke '03 1
    40 William "Bud" Eley C 6-10 260 1/14/75 S.E. Missouri St., '99 0
    7 Nate Green G 6-5 190 12/12/77 Indiana St. '00 0
    6 Ramel "Rock" Lloyd G 6-4 225 6/28/78 Long Beach St., '01 0
    35 Art Long C 6-9 253 10/1/73 Cincinnati, '96 3
    43 Will McDonald F/C 6-11 255 10/5/79 South Florida, '03 0
    12 Keith McLeod G 6-3 188 11/5/79 Bowling Green, '02 0
    8 Marlon Parmer G 6-2 190 9/28/80 Kentucky Wesleyan, '03 0
    2 Mickael Pietrus G/F 6-6 200 2/7/82 France R

    I thought I read somewhere that he was going to be on the team, but I haven't seen the Rocket's lineup yet.

    It's a shame that Marcus HAtten is on the Clippers Roster, seeing as how some people on this BBS wanted to see him practice with the Rockets. The bigger surprise, however is TIERRE BROWN ON THE RAPTORS!!!

    And someone may have posted it somewhere before, but is the Rockets summer league team roster out?

    Tierre would actually fit in pretty well on the Raptors. They have no pg presence and Tierre could easily find a spot as backup pg there if not starter.

    I guess I was just holding out hope that Tierre would find his way back to the Rockets. Hope he does well wherever he goes...at least get a roster spot. Oh well, at least Collier is gone now for sure!

    Having Dajuan play shooting guard behind Lebron is laughable. It will look funny on the court to see the 6'8 guy play PG and the 6'2 guy play SG.

    thanks for the heads-up.

    here is the complete t-wolf line-up:

    6 Cal Bowdler F 6-10 253 03/31/77 Old Dominion '99 3
    24 Kevin Burleson G 6-3 185 09/04/79 Minnesota '03 R
    53 Peter Cornell C 6-11 245 06/01/76 Loyola Marymount '99 R
    12 Joe Crispin G 6-0 185 07/18/79 Penn State '01 1
    44 Ndudi Ebi F 6-9 195 06/18/84 Westbury Christian HS '03 R
    23 Carl English G 6-5 205 02/02/81 Hawaii '03 R
    4 Doug Gottlieb G 6-1 180 01/15/76 Oklahoma State '00 R
    9 Darius Lane G 6-4 208 12/14/78 Seton Hall '02 R
    20 Quincy Lewis F 6-7 215 06/26/77 Minnesota '99 3
    17 Kirk Penney G 6-5 220 11/23/80 Wisconsin '03 R
    11 Kasib Powell F 6-7 218 03/18/81 Texas Tech '03 R
    36 Igor Rakocevic G 6-2 175 03/29/78 Red Star Belgrade '00 1
    14 Rick Rickert F 6-11 215 02/11/83 Minnesota '05 R
    22 John Wallace F 6-9 225 02/19/74 Syracuse '96 6
    5 Michael Wright G 6-7 238 01/07/80 Arizona '02 R

    I think Powell will have a shot at making the roster. The Timberwolves have many free agents on their team. The only players they have under contact are Garnett, Marc Jackson, Cassell, Ebi, Hudson, Ervin Johnson, and Wally.
