Game three Summer league game thread

[Wizard Mentor]

Summary:
After losing the tap, we didn't allow Utah to get a shot off in the 2nd OT.
Also, we hit every shot in the double OT, and we only took 3-pointers!

I think Pat needs to be in more of a system. The freelance style of summer league doesn't work well for system type players and bigs

As in, Orioles farm...?

 

[Schilly]

As in, Orioles farm...?

I was thinking more Stotts' organized Offense

 

[riverman]

He's not kinda clutch, he's Connaugh-clutch.

I'm glad he's no longer Connaugh-clank.

 

[Schilly]

Wouldn't it be Pat Clutchnaughten?

 

[Natebishop3]

Should be....

How clutch is Pat?

A Connaugh-TON.

Most of the players did some nice things today. I thought Napier ran the team very well before he got hurt. Montero played under control and showed some solid D.

Layman looks like he can be a solid bench player in a couple of years.

Vonleh looked hurt to me. Like he pulled something or had a deep thigh bruise. He looked like he was in pain. But he was tough on the boards, played good D, and showed a nice little running hook. Too careless with the ball though, which should be easy to fix.

Agree with all of this. Vonleh was noticeably limping.

Don't forget Fair! Be fair to Fair.

I have to admit. I am pulling for Pat. I've been reading a lot about him and watching him in interviews. Seems like a hardworking kid who really comes from a sold background. Dad's a carpenter who flips houses. I honently think he wants to play for the love of the game and he's very diligent about it. I'm pulling for him.

 

[ripcityboy]

We won...Russ Smith DNPCD.....that helped

Jeez. That guy will never get an invite again.

 

[Natebishop3]

I would rather have Fair than Alexander. Not seeing much from old Cliff.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Jeez. That guy will never get an invite again.

Putting yourself 1st, 2nd and 3rd when management wants to evaluate the progress of guys who will actually be on our roster isn't an endearing quality in a PG.

He probably thought he'd put up some big scoring numbers and some other crap team (Hello SAC) would be dumb enough to offer him a contract. The problem is, when you're hogging the ball AND not shooting well, it makes you look pretty shitty AND like you also just don't get it.

Yes Fair looked very smooth out there. Both with his 3 ball and his drives. Really played under control.
Did not focus on his D, how is it? Is that why he is not in the Association?

 

[adrenalize74]

Vonleh, Layman and Montero are the only guys who should be in a Blazer uniform. I really like what I have seen from those guys. Montero definitely needs higher quality guys around him and he would be a stud.

I only caught the last 5 minutes regulation + overtimes. Now I'll watch the replay.

We'll be waiting with bated breath for your report.

 

[PDXFonz]

Gonna watch the replay when I get home. Glad to see we got our first W. Can still go all the way if we get this result the rest of the way.

from ONE game and I know its only one game FAIR was the one guy I'd like on the roster, passed and shot well

 

[theprunetang]

If he replaced his name into that tweet in place of Montero, I think he would be on to something.

Rather have him over Montero

 

[Mediocre Man]

Layman knows where to be off the ball defensively. Rotates to the right help-side spot and keeps his head on a swivel.

He is Claver

 

[PDXFonz]

Napier actually looks like a much better creator than I thought. He still needs to learn to finish though, gotta think CJ and Dame can help him out there.

 

[PDXFonz]

Olshey rips Napier for making a stupid play right before the half.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Ya, that was awesome

 

[BBert]

Olshey rips Napier for making a stupid play right before the half.

What did he actually say?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

What did he actually say?

Basically said that Napier was stupid for committing a pointless foul right before the half, and that he deserved what he got (a shoulder sprain).

 

[BBert]

Wow

 

[Pinwheel1]

What did he actually say?

Not sure of the exact words.......but basically said he deserved getting hurt for being stupid and jumping in front of someone sprinting down the court with less than a second left.....then said he hopes he all right.
