    No, just kept from playing the remainder of summer league after being late to a shoot around/practice/walk through I believe. Still on the roster.

    I really like Greg Smith. I was upset that we cut him at the beginning of last season and was really glad when we brought him back. Other than the fouls, it didn't seem like he made too many mistakes. He's definitely got a lot of strength and potential. I look forward to seeing more of him this year, backing up Asik.

    If a player isn't shredding others in the D-league, that's a question mark. About two weeks before entering the Nets game, Lin posted a triple double in the D-league. It looked easy for him. 28 pts, 9/17 FG, 12 ast, 11 reb, 2 stl, 1 blk.

    Who would have thought?

    ESPN ain't too shabby.

    Now quit tying your shoes when you're on the paint.

    Refresh your memory of a guy with a last name of White.

    Dorsey? Taylor?

    But in general they do a pretty job drafting.

    I thought having big hands hurt your shooting touch, especially at the free throw line, i.e. Shaq?

    Nah. Big hands got nothing to do with free throw. Here is a Discovery Sports Science on Shaq's FT.

    But Yao has big hands too (and I remember he also caught some rebounds with one hand and then did a put-back dunk a few times).

    LOL I laughed so hard when I read this because I got a visual of Stephen A. Smith saying it in the style of "when the fuq did we get ice cream?" from "The Ringer".

    Funny how your mind puts things together lmao.
