that last dunk by Johnny reminds me of Steve Francis during his prime.

Man we suck balls. One win? Pffft, last years summer league team would have eviscerated this one. P-thetic.

I enjoyed the summer league overall. Jonny was awesome, Ellington showed me way more than I though he had, and Brewer atleast left us with something positive.

Man that was a nice dunk by Flynn! Someone should make an avy out of it.

The trophy was the rookie of the month award for July. Great start to his career.

Rookie of the month award? Do they give that out to multiple rookies or what?

Nah, Flynn got the rookie of the month award and Griffin got the 'Most Outstanding Player of the summer league' award according to nba.com. I can't remember that happening in the past though.

Pech with the rebound and FT's


Is Siler really looking that good? I am rooting for him, he is a local kid that went to a small College here in Georgia and only has been playing the game for about four years. He is also at Atlanta Hawk's mini camp this week starting the 20th I believe. I hope the Hawks keep him we need a big that can get rebounds, and defend a true center.

Siler was looking pretty good. He needs some work conditioning and in other areas but if he has the drive he can pull it off. He hustles out there, seems to have a lot of heart.

Man, well once again we get another example of how much a great positive attitude can go towards influencing your success. When people know you and then on top of that really like you, good things happen. I mean Evans averaged 19 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists.Jennings had 14 PPG and 8 APG along with 3.6 steals. Curry had 17, 4, and 4. Flynn had a bunch of TO's and the wolves only won one game.

For those who didn't see Johnny Fly's windmill, go to nba.com/video to see it. WOW!
