Summer League: Lakers vs Spurs (1st Quarter, ESPN3.com)

[Gek]

even though Ebanks missed that jump shot, he looked confident and smooth - that's a good sign. Ebanks had a nice follow through.

Ebanks will play into the system well.

number 10 and 32 are garbage...these guys get trapped and stop their dribble with the quickness.

nice game from caracter, ebanks, and green so far

[Gek]

Ebanks wears his pants really high.

32 is D-Fender Frank Robinson
10 is Ex-Gaucho Cecil Brown.

Good game by Ebanks and Caracter and Strawberry and a 2nd really good game by Sims... he is our insurance big this season I think.

Players that get a camp invite:

Devin Ebanks
Derrick Caracter
Courtney Sims



DJ Strawberry is much better off going to another team where his talents will be used and not waste his team trying to be the 3rd or 4th PG/SG on our team.

[Gerald3Wallace]

the only ones worth keeping are Caracter(most def) and ebanks....and mayyyybbeeee strawberry, and thats a longshot.

everyone else can go home.

Don't be fooled by Green's boxscore.

The guy was terrible from a team standpoint, ignored Caracter open on the block multiple times and took plenty of ill advised shots.

^ thats true.

I didnt really like Sims game base off the fact that when he gets the ball, it never goes back out...but then again, our guards dont even really look for them, so i can see why they take it.

Yeah, Jaaber leaving the team killed Caracter's stats b/c no other guard looked for the bigs - that in turned kill Ebanks mid range shots b/c he couldn't cut from the weak side.

I was watching this game and I was getting really mad that Caracter wasn't getting the ball. He had great position on whoever was guarding him and he made every shot he took until the way end of the game where he took a bad shot out of frustration for not getting the ball

Tuned in to the Washington/Dallas game to watch John Wall, but Jeremy Lin playing for Dallas out of Harvard has some talent!

Damn Dallas took Ian Mahinmi.

To bad Green doesnt have "IT". Hes crazy athletic. wow

[Teen Girl Squad]

Glad RealGM noted that the Lakers were focusing on the triangle and not winning. Unfortunately the triangle of recent is apparently centered around guards actively avoiding quality big men in the post, just like their big brother team. Looks like Green/Strawberry are well groomed to take over the the Farmar role of jacking shots and ignoring post players guard play that we will be missing with his departure.

why is green getting so much PT from the coaches when he clearly would be a cancer on any team (and has NO chance of making it on the Lakers? this is a real big mystery to me.

When a team finally has the balls to actually trust Jeremy Lin, they are going to be pleasantly surprised. I really like this kid. It's going to take some time, but I predict he's going to make it some day in the nba.

We only had 8 players in the rotation, and Ebanks played a few 39 min games - he needed rest I think.
