I like what I'm hearing about Mullens work ethic this off-season but still he was a real softy last year. I'm not sure if you can ever learn to go from soft to tough. I just want him to stop shooting it every time he touches the ball. Make a few passes, try and take his man off the dribble etc.

The guy I'm most excited about is Ibaka and how much his offense has improved. I would have said Aldrich but he won't play ugh.

Well I hope to hear a detailed description.

Last season you could watch Orlando online but I guess Stern has to squeeze every penny out of the sponge that is the NBA. It is a recession after all.

Last year I was dying to watch Serge. This season I'm curious about Mullens but not $15bucks curious.

I wonder if Harden is going to be playing? He should be.

Yeah Mullens holds alot of interest for me.
I really hope he comes with a killer attitude. Just be agressive as anything on the boards and inside - its pretty much a pipe dream though I'd say.

Expecting a big summer league period from James Harden. Dude has a chance to become the starting two as soon as next season, time to put in the hard work.

D.J. White always scores well in NBA games. I'm wondering what his production will be like in the D-League.

I'm also curious about Latavious Williams. I've seen him play in a few D-League games, but I haven't been impressed yet. I'd like to know what Presti sees in Williams.

Well I thought I had to work today, but found out I have the day off. SWEET!

5 more hours until I get to see Serge Ibaka's offensive porfolio and Mullen's commitment to becoming a banger.

How nice would it be if Mullens actually became a stud? I'm trying to dream here a bit because I have five hours before viewing reality.

Kind of like buying a lottery ticket. You know the chances but you still like to dream.

I'd love to see Mullens commit to offensive post moves, "D" and rebounding enough to put Cole on the bench.

I want to see him with more muscle too. I want the kid to be an OX.

Make it happen Mullens!!!

ahh, thanks. Wanted to see him play.
Oh well, you guys have a good SL squad out there anyways.
Maynor, Ibaka, and Harden should dominate.

DJ White and Kyle Weaver.. this offseason is really their last chance to do anything, especially for Weaver. Real disappointed in how they are playing.

yeah nothing that stands out right now from them. DJ White still looks really slow.

BTW Ibaka looks a bit bigger. I wonder how much more the team wants him to gain if any?
