I'm probably most excited for Kris Joseph as odd as that sounds. I'll have a better idea of how he'll play vs the higher level of competition but I think he'll surprise.

Melo is a big question mark to me so I'll be watching him closely. I hope JJJ and Sully show me the start of their war for playing time.

I'm excited as well for Joseph. People aren't mentioning his name at the moment, but that could change very quickly. This player is no slouch by any stretch. Plus, he's an Ainge 2nd round pick so you know he's got game.

Post by: action781 on July 08, 2012, 11:52:20 PM
Only 5 players who can play the 1-3 positions and 6 players who play the 4 & 5?  Weird roster.

I think PJIII and Sullinger are the two guys to watch in this game.  See how their talented college games translate to the quasi-pro level.

fabulous flcf. i cant believe you are doing threads for the summer league. thank you thank you and a tp.

a favor to anyone who can watch the game, let me know how melo does on defense. the rap on him was a probable inability to play nba level defense....handle the pick and role, weak side switches, etc.

please let me know how he plays defense...and that means more than just swatting away shots.  :)

thanks in advance.

Also happy to see Lasme again.

His name is still JaJuan, despite the repeated failure of Boston pundits to get it right.

However, the Heat are going to be kicking themselves for trading out and not drafting PJ3.

The heat trading that pick made absolutely no sense. They are so strapped with cap space that the only real way to improve and keep an eye on the future is through the draft. I can't believe they prefer to pay some old stiff to sit on the bench as the 15th man than a potential lottery pick rookie.

Our back up point guard 'Smith' I think is playing quite poorly.
Fab Melo needs time to get used to things- this type of run and gun play is not meant for him.
This is what it's all about- giving him time to get used to the bright lights of Vegas before sitting down and betting anything :)

Perry Jones does look good though.

Sully is solid. Rebounds, made a midrange jumper, doesn't look lost. Ehh Danny did you just draft Melo instead PJ3 who runs with the ball 6'11 pg skills, he makes 3s hits jumpers...

Sean Williams is better than Fab Melo. It seems like Melo is not on the floor, his boxscore is empty, PJ3 scores on him... all signs show that he will be a bust.

Sully is solid. Rebounds, made a midrange jumper, doesn't look lost. Ehh Danny did you just draft Melo instead PJ3 who runs with the ball 6'11 pg skills, he makes 3s hits jumpers...

Overreaction of the year.

And the year hasn't even started.  ;D

Summer League.

PG play is horrible, as always in summer league. You can't translate what's going on right now to a team with Rondo or even Bradley/Terry running the team.

The kids need playing time to figure it all out.

Go Celtics!

He's definitely being aggressive as a scorer, but not setting up others as well as Reggie Jackson is for OKC so far (despite the assist numbers in the box score).  The commentators are loving them some Reggie Jackson.

If we are judging everything by this summer league today, Joseph is far better than Brooks.

If you pick based on talent alone, then Perry Jones should have been picked instead of Sullinger.
Sure the Celtics picked Melo because they liked him, and there is nothing to do now. I just hope that this mistake doesnt bite them in the future.

As such, I'm convinced JJJ needs to eat more mcdonalds, Moore should go back to Italy, Sullinger is a keeper, and Melo is worse than Ala Albdelnaby ever was.  

The rest of summer league may now be canceled.

12 ppg on 42% shooting and 31% from 3 is a "Stud" 2 guard? Is Avery bradley Sam Jones?

Calling Brooks a total stud is something else, Avery Bradley is Jordan I guess.

As a stretch 4 maybe.

But if you're not willing to bang an play inside he'll always be limited, he's not the same gifted ball handler like Durant/KG other high level outside bigs are/were.

I told this board about Christmas, he can really score the basketball. I wish he'd get more looks.

I was disappointed he went undrafted, liked him a lot at Temple. Hollinger's draft rater loved him.

I'd be happy giving him the sixth guard spot on a cheap deal. Celtics may have to decide quickly though, he goes straight to Vegas to play for the Rockets Summer League team.

Amazing how people wanted Doc to play stiffs like Johnson and Moore. They are dime a dozen filler players on any roster. Sullinger meanwhile is a real NBA prospect who immediately looks better than last years picks. Doc will play Sullinger because he can actually help the team win. Moore and Johnson are players you use in mop up time and when the back up players get hurt.

Kris J. - Could really be OUR steal of the draft! Kid has skillz NOW! Love to see him get some burn this year at the backup 2 or 3.

Agreed on Sully, Christmas, and Kris. JJJ wasn't there on the offensive end. Melo had a couple flashes but overall not a good game, and Moore was a chucking machine who thankfully made his last couple shots.

J3 just needs to get that J down and do some squats.

I was impressed by Eh'twaun, despite the poor shooting %. He can get to the rim better than I thought.

Kris Joseph had some solid-good plays, but we'll see more of him in vegas when Xmas is playing for Houston.

And then there's Sullinger and his post-movage  :)

Only saw the first half, going to watch the second after work.

Sullinger looked pretty good on the boards and offensively, though he took a lazy three that I didn't like. He shoved Aldrich around in the paint multiple times on both sides of the ball. His movement on the P&R wasn't good, ended up behind the play useless the two times I saw him defend it.

Melo didn't do much in the first half, looked a bit tenative but his quickness was good on the defensive end.

Sullinger had an excellent game from what I saw.  Looked a little lost initially, as the C's guards were out of sorts and the bigs had to do a lot on their own in the high post, but acclimated quickly. As advertised - points in the post, from the line, and the perimeter, all with solid efficiency.  Great hands and good anticipation on the boards.  Made solid passes and set good screens.  Serviceable defensively but no rim protection.

Only caught a few minutes of Melo.  Again, as advertised.  Blocked shots, but always seemed out of position in the rebounding battles and was an afterthought offensively.

JJJ - 3 pts, 8 rebounds, only 5 shots.

Moore - 16 pts, 4 assists, +9

Sullinger - 20 pts 6 rebs, 50% from the floor, 7-7 from the line



PJIII - 16pts 8 rebs on 17 shots.

This guy came out of no where, great shot and looked great on the boards especially for a guard.Etwann took way to many shots and doesnt look like he should run the point, he did get to the rim pretty well. Melo did exactly what I expected, stretches of great D and hustle, nothing to impressive, he is deffiantly a project. Sean Williams will not make this team, no more threads please.

He was playing outside shooting jumpers, pretty much what he did at Baylor, why he slipped so far in the draft.

David Stockton is the one that plays for the Zags

Michael Stockton apparently played at Westminster, Westminster didn't reinstate its basketball program until 1999.  He played in Germany earlier this year and averaged 11/4/3.

After 7/14 and 16 points PJ3 locked by the JaJuan. Melo, Sully and JJJ same time on the court and very good job on the PJ3 when he was playing SF . I like that. PJII scorless after that.

Moore, good combo guard IMO. First half, Celtics +10 lead, when he was on the game.

Melo and Joseph looks like promising role players. Maybe Melo much more(I like his high post shoot, but no low post-up play yet)

And Sully.

Mid range shot from the middle or near the baseline
Mid range shot after pink and pop on the high post,
Shot from behind the arc,
Low post shimmy shot
Low post Spin Layup
Dribble Pull-Up
Shoot in Traffic
Grabbed rebound and ran cost the cost and finished it
Getting on the line (and not missed)

Man, a lot of weapons...

Keep going!

Sully did nothing to dispel my believe that he's a basketball player.  In the post game gabfest with Kamla, he mentioned that he's hired a private chef. That's one thing that can help change a bad body player around real quick.  

Sullinger has the low base, hands, skill and game feel to be a good NBA player. For the Cs to be a true contender, he's going to have to be an impact rookie.  JJJ is nowhere near ready to play real NBA minutes.  

Melo looked good at times, but he's ray as sashimi. Huge body, athletic, gets off the floor and across the paint very well. One would think that Moore would have tried to set him up in the post ONCE.  

Joseph looks and played like an NBA player.  If I'm that kid, i start studying LeBron James tapes asap (and learn to play man to man D too). If he is going to carve a role on this team, he's going to have to be a defensive stopper,  something a rookie can very rarely do.

Melo was not scoring, not his deal right now, but his presence on the court changed things.  OKC had to hit their outside jumpers. Melo and Williams and Sully were pretty intent on protecting the paint.  TO me ....their size and Sully and Ewtain Moore's Offense was the difference.  Christmas hit some nice shots.

All I can say .... is DWADE  ...look out for Joesph....this boy can leap . float , and doesn't look like someone to mess with .. I 'm loving Joesph....He has a bit of that PERK scowl and frown at the other players ... HEE HEE HEE...an...how about the DR J finger roll highlight ...WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!

Sully looked decent.  not great.  I think he'll make a contribution this year.
JJJ looked much better on the boards than he did last year.  I liked his hustle too.  I think he might see court time too this year.
-->of course Sully ad JJJ getting court time depends on how they do in camp and which vets Danny signs for the front court.
Moore can score but his PG skills weren't that great.
Melo is a project.  figure 2 years of learning before he gets any real court time.
Kris Joseph looked pretty decent in his minutes.  I think he makes the cut.

The rest -- playing for a contract somewhere else.
