Saw first half, then was checking some stuff on the phone and forgot to switch back and just remembered it after the game weee done.

That first half looked better. No terry. Coincidence?

He looked skilled with good potential (unlike Bey for example who was long athletic dude, but didn't really look like a basketball player), he still needs polishing.

Yeah, ve needs time so think getting a 2 way were better then getting a pure mavs contract.

Saw a very nice draftnight video of him from sportsnet i think it was. I get the feeling from seeing him outside the court that he will put in the work. Hope kidd dares to give mins to the young guys this year

Does Omoruyi remind anyone of a Brandon Bass type?

I missed the game. I was hoping to get to watch Carlik Jones. How did he look? I was hoping he would be the missing playmaker for this team.

A bad foul by Omoruyi lead to Chimezie Metu punching him in the head.

Finally a tough guy, he said "i don't want a poster".

Good job, he earns the contract.

Meh, that foul was bush league stuff. Metu could have broken his wrist and for what? So Omoruyi gets to shop himself in Summer League after already getting his 2-way contract? Self-oriented guy IMO.

Metu's reaction is also not a good one, although he was justifiably angry. Could have given Omoruyi a concussion. Just more bush league stuff.

Most of the guys playing in this last game are pretty much not getting onto our team so why would we not attempt to play any of our keepers in the final game?

Hinton was the only one of last years guys to play and even the 2 we have heard the most about from the undrafted guys in this years draft got held out. And we won the game so go figure.

So since we are all reading in between the lines here at this point what does it all mean?

Are they all getting traded except for Hinton or maybe its the exact opposite.

OH OH OH! I know what it means. They must be gearing up to trade for Dragic and not want to give up on Brown by including all of our other prospects so they must be preparing to trade them all for Lukas buddy.

LOL

Seriously the coaches have seen what they need to see it must be so.

Morris is known as Tough Guy, It is how NBA works right now.
The Clips bullied us the last 2 years, i'm tired of this.
Our bigs are soft, Luka is the toughest guy...the others...meh.

Go Omoruyi play hard every game, we are a pussy team.

Good maybe he showed something in practice that got them excited enough to want him tied up because he lacked a chance to show what he could do in SL probably because he was not getting looks like happens a lot with bigs in SL. We should just call SL no bigs allowed league or ball hogs only league.
