    We should do well with that roster.

    What does the "years" mean? It sounds like Cj has no experience, and Will only has 1. Do we just add 1 to each to yield NBA experience?

    Edit: also the oldest player on the team is still 6 months younger than me. =[ I'm old now.

    Gibson is interesting.

    Years as a professional basketball player. CJ was a rookie, Trob and Will had 1 full year of experience.

    It is just weird how it is dated. Like it must pre date the end of the regular season or something. Because technically today Trob has 2 years and CJ has 1.

    Freeland made his SPL debut seven years ago.

    He should be shamed.

    I wonder if they have him on it to see how CJ/Barton play the point with a player they will actually be on the court with against non regular competition.

    I don't think the guy has really earned the right to pass on SL yet.

    I think that was the point fez was trying to make. He should be ashamed that it's been 7 years and he still has to play for the SL team.

    I'm sure he doesn't HAVE to - after all, the man has a guaranteed contract. He's just humble, is all.

    Plus, it's not like he played in it all seven years. He played the year he was drafted and then last year. (I think the year before that he played for the GB team.)

    Meanwhile, Claver's playing for Spain again. (Interesting that Mirotic isn't. I don't think it's because he isn't good enough, it's because of some rule that only allows one naturalized player, and this year it's Ibaka.)

    Yeah, I imagine he wants to keep improving, and I bet he also knows that his job is far from secure.

    Different Josh Davis.

    The one you're thinking of is the Josh from Salem who played at Wyoming.

    This one is from SDSU.

    That is true and if that is the case then he should be anything but ashamed. Respect if that's the case, but I doubt he is doing summer league just to get better.

    Nominations for stars of Summer League?

    (Interesting that one of last year's stars, Kent Bazemore, just got cut loose by the Lakers.)

    Well, he also hasn't really played since he got hurt. I bet he wants to shake off some of the rust.

    They must have the wrong one listed, because it says Wyoming '02.

    Okay then, there's still Eric Dawson for the Hawks, Chris Johnson for Orlando, and (oh my God) Chris Crawford for Orlando and DELONTE WEST for the Clippers!
