Game Thread- Summer league- Game 5; 7/17 8PM Webcast
« on: July 11, 2008, 12:45:28 PM »
The most imprortant game of the century!  M. Speights first game as a Sixer- well sorta.

Sixers v. some other teams bunch of scrubs
L.V. 4PM EST
http://www.nba.com/summerleague2008/vsl_tvschedule08.html

Players to watch:
Speights, Smith, 2Young1
and that scoring guard guy (Jordan?)

What not to watch- defense, execution, fundamental play, lots of guys who can't even play at this level.

What will be missed:  Lou Williams and Louis Amundason, and to a lesser extent Carney playing like gods.

I believe it is Jamont Gordon (J Gordon, you were close).  Funny thing about him is most pre-draft reports said shooting was his weakness, more of a scorer than shooter.  Not a likely help with our shooting deficiencies.

I'm intrigued by his reported ability to defend both guard spots, and rebound. I think if he shows he can D and doesn't turn the ball over, Cheeks loves him and he sticks. Otherwise, he's Olu Famutimi.

If I recall, don't the web casts lack any sort of play by play?

I heard a rumor McLellan or whatever has been told if he plays solid D he'll make the team. Evidently they really like him. This comes from Chris Ford via like 3 other people

IIRC, SF1976 on RealGM also mentioned McClellan as a defensive specialist the team hopes to have on the roster this fall.  Not much about him anywhere on the net, must be a DiLeo special.

I'm assuming Thad hit that first basket, as far as I know he's the only lefty.
