This article has some SL info in it:

http://www.cleveland.com/cavs/index.ssf ... _to_c.html

Summer league info: The Cavs will be starting play in the Vegas Summer League this weekend and will play six games over the 10-day event. Both draft picks from last month, first-rounder Christian Eyenga and second-rounder Danny Green, are set to play. Cavs roster players Darnell Jackson, Jawad Williams and Tarence Kinsey are also slated to be on the team. J.J. Hickson may spend time there doing some rehab but is not expected to play as he recovers from a back injury. The rest of the team's summer league roster is expected to be released soon.

Eyenga is going to play!

I'm going to have to find these games online.

Yeah, but who wants to pay for it, when you have places like ustream and atdhe.

So which Laker scrub will Eyenga yoke on today?

Eyenga looked terrible, hopefully he can pull it together. Doesn't matter though, don't think he'll be over for at least a few years if ever.

Danny Green looked really good. He is a very smart and efficient player. He was a great pickup for you guys. He is a solid defender and can really spot up and shoot the three, great player along side Shaq and Lebron. He'll fit right in with a backcourt of Mo, Gibson, West and Parker. Gret depth there.

Danny did play well. Is Jawad under contract with you guys for the upcoming season?

Benedict_Boozer · Post #11 » by **Benedict_Boozer** » Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:19 am

Jawad has a team option. Ferry liked him so I wouldn't be surprised to see him make the roster.

Danny Green was automatic from deep and played solid team defense. I think he will make the team also.

One other guy we might consider is David Harrison. He is a legit 7 footer and would at least be better than Lorenzen Wright last year. I could see him making the team also.

Kinsey played pretty bad btw, was a turnover machine. Eyenga looked awful also.

Gordon Bombay · Post #12 » by **Gordon Bombay** » Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:29 am

i think eyenga, green and jackson need as many minutes as possible

green was solid...definitely the best player on the court

i like dblock working on his offensive game but i would prefer he not take contested turn-around jumpers...we need a post game and a mid range game out him

eyenga looked very shaky on offense (including his first shot that was closer to the lakers bench than it was to the basket) but his defense was pretty good and his hops are amazing
