[The Rebel]

Looks like Harris, Green, and Q Miller are all playing for the team.

Heard that they are going to experiment with Harris at the point, would like to see what a back court of Harris and Green will look like.

Also, if Miller doesn;t show some serious development in the LVSL, I will be done with him. He needs to avg at least 15/8 IMO.

Does Alabi & Ohlbrecht have a standing invites to play for the Nuggets during summer league play, seems like they have been there last 3-4 years.

Of serious note, none of our Euro big men on the squad, not a good sign

Don't have a problem with Nurkic playing overseas, better competition, less selfish players padding their stats, would get consistent minutes.

Anyone watching?

All 3 Harris, Green, Miller are playing well.

Harris has 13 points in the first quarter according to box scores. Quincy has 8.

[RRFB]

Quincy and Harris are making it rain from three. That's good to see.

[The Rebel]

Not watching but looking at twitter it sounds like Harris and Miller are both doing very well, with Miller with 21 and Harris with 17 at the half. Not a bad start.

[eathb_au]

Harris finished with 33.

What I really liked was that his scoring came from off the ball stuff, like screens and cuts. Foul happy with 7 so hopefully he works on that.

Also liked what I saw of Erick Green, will perhaps needs one more year playing overseas but did like how he scored the ball.

[The Rebel]

If harris is going to be this good the Nuggets may have to figure out how to move Foye as well. Sounds like the kid had a great game.

Remember, this is the Summer League, not the best level of competition. Like what Quincy, Green and Harris showed, this should build a lot of confidence going into training camp

Summer league is a big deal!! This game's thread is 40 plus pages on the Raptors board...

I'm watching a little of the game right now. Q and Harris looking good....as they both should in summer league.

Nice defensive effort, held TOR to under 40% shooting

[MHZ]

Impressed with the offensive versatility Gary Harris showed. He did a lot more than just shoot open corner threes. He attacked the rim, hit from the mid range, and even had a nice tear drop floater.

Just summer league, but showed me something.

I'm completely on board with dealing Foye, although his ability to play point may make him more valuable.

Green had a nice line as the PG, 17pt/7rebs/4ast with NO TO's. And he doesn't make $3M a year...do like Foye, but need to develop the young talent.

lol that raptors thread is so cute. Anytime Bruno does anything they freak out. If someone doesn't pass him the ball they freak out. You'd think Bruno had a game like Harris. Instead he has 11 points and 3 rebounds on poor shooting.

Thank you, almost 4 minutes of highlights from one game is pretty impressive, but I must say this guy looks good, it is almost scary how much the Nuggets team dominated the Raptors behind Harris and Q Miller and of course it sounds as if Green did well. With the current structure of the roster that looks to be our 12th & 13th guys on the roster, with a guy who will likely end up back in Europe or the D league this year. I cannot help but be cautious due to the summer league stats the pizza boy used to put up, but so far things are looking good.

Vs Chicago:

Quincy played well offensively with 26 points (20 FGA but 2 of them were last second full court heaves)

Harris only had 9 points and struggled to shoot, played good defense on Tony Snell though

Erick Green's lack of PG skills is going to keep him out of this league.

[Powder Blue]

Ha, not too many posts when the rookie shoots 1-12. #summerleague

I'd still trade Foye to get Harris more minutes at SG.....in a heartbeat.

[The Rebel]

Sounds like Harris had a rough night, and that Q was bad on defense, as for Green his lack of PG skills do not surprise me. He has never played as a PG, in reality he is an undersized SG.
