View Full Version : Summer league game 3 vs Warriors
Jethro34 07-13-2009, 03:20 PM Figure I would get it started.
Looking for how minutes are distributed and if today's trade means anything for the Pistons guard rotation.
Will Summers keep up his stellar play? How much inside vs outside will he come with?
What will Daye's minutes look like?
Will Jonas hit the maximum 10 fouls? I'm guessing he'll be playing a lot of minutes at C.
And then there's Washington. The team will be counting on his D, apparently.
Zekyl 07-13-2009, 03:52 PM Jonas is averaging 6 fouls a game thusfar. Weird that they're playing him at C. I know they want to get him on the floor, but wouldn't you rather have him on the floor playing a position he'll actually play? Does this signify that positions don't matter in summer league?
Is Jonas 6'9" or 6'10"? I've heard both.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 03:54 PM He looks more like 6'8." He tries to be 7'4" though. Not very good at it, but he tries.
Zekyl 07-13-2009, 04:13 PM I think it was LLTP that said something about 6'10", which wouldn't surprise me. DE says he's 6'9"
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 05:03 PM funny because when i see him he looks a lot closer to 6-10 than 6-8. he looks a fair bit taller and longer than his listed size IMO.
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 05:05 PM It doesn't matter how big you are. Look at Patrick O Bryant, the guy is 7 feet but is a major pussy. Jonas sounds like a hardass, and thats waht you need to be a NBA big man.
D's Nuts 07-13-2009, 05:49 PM Yeah, I like that they are seasoning him up by playing him at C. Give him some confidence to bang bodies with the beasts and then play him at PF and let him loose.
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 09:59 PM I might get to watch this one, I am excited to see Anthony Randolph, that guy is going to be a star
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:08 PM he definitely doesn't look like a C to me. no way. i think he's a 3/4 and i don't seriously think we'll move him to C longterm.
DrRay11 07-13-2009, 10:09 PM Any feed for this?
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:11 PM yep. Dunno if any are free, though.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:13 PM both Summers and Daye are off early, but they are both playing good D.
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 10:13 PM http://fr.justin.tv/jimo2305
this is how I am watching it
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 10:16 PM nice pass, but the grainy feed I couldn't see who it was
Mr. Oobir 07-13-2009, 10:17 PM Singletary to Plaisted
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:17 PM Austin Daye playing the 4 today after spending much of the first two games at the 1 and 3 spots. Like that he's hitting the glass.
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 10:19 PM Stephen Curry looks decent running the point
BIG BEN'S FRO 07-13-2009, 10:20 PM KStat, what happened to the running commentary? I rather enjoyed it.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:20 PM Jerebko checks in...and instantly, its a turnover.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:21 PM Jerebko does have a nice mid-range jumper, I'll give him that.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:22 PM DaJuan Summers getting a crack at Anthony Randolph, who probably starts at the 4 for GS this year.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:24 PM Austin having his first real sloppy stretch of the VSL...0-2 shooting, 2 turnovers.
Deron Washington, on the other hand is playing pretty well. Solid defense and he's dishing out some tough fouls.
SUmmers vs Randolph is a stand-still so far... both guys are having trouble and randolph is scoring more simply because he's jacking up a ton of shots.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:26 PM Steph Curry isnt playing the point very well. Pases are coming late and he's taking poor shots.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:28 PM SUmmers' weakness seems to be going left. The only time he's had trouble at the rim so far has been when he's forced to use his off hand.
darkobetterthanmelo 07-13-2009, 10:28 PM SUmmers blows by I think Randolph for the dish to ??? for the And 1, Summers is looking good.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:29 PM that would be Plaisted.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:30 PM Jeremy Pargo gets picked at midcourt to end the quarter. Embarrassing.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:31 PM GS 22 Detroit 18 after a spirited 1st quarter.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:31 PM Floyd Mayweather in the house for this one.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:33 PM Deron Washington needs to either shoot or pass on the catch. No dribbling, please.
Oh, and he still can't hit a free throw.
Daye bails his ass out though with an offensive board and put-back.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:36 PM Austin is not afraid to thread the needle, i'll give him that. He's very good at making quick, smart decisions.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:37 PM Austin got shook by a crossover, and still recovered well enough to force a miss. Bailed out by a foul ,but nontheless impressive wingspan.
Daye padding his rebounding stats early...6 boards already.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:38 PM GS is force-feeding their best guys. It'd be nice to see us return the favor.
Instead, we're force feeding it to Deron, who is killing us.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:40 PM well, randoplph has broken through after getting locked down in the 1st quarter.
Summers meanwhile is still ice cold.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:42 PM summers has no conscience! gunning away....well, it is summer league afterall. and he has been scoring well.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:42 PM i'd like to see Daye get a little more aggressive. Nobody else is playing well.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:43 PM jerebko has such nice elevation on his J. he's going to be another nowitzski! OK maybe not quite. but i really think he'll be a serious player in 2-3 years.
he can contribute before then but that is when we'll REALLY know what we have.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:44 PM daye has very nice playmaking/passing skills too.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:45 PM man, summers cant even hit a FT tonight. Very unlike him.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:46 PM Austin Daye is a foot taller than steph cury, and Bramos STILL overthrew the pass...lol
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:48 PM pargo with a nice backdown J.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:48 PM and back to the line goes summers....gotta hit these.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:49 PM Summers just hasn't shown up tonight. Can't even make a FT.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:49 PM dang! 1 of 2 at least.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:49 PM Curry needs to work on his shot selection.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:50 PM pargo again. will be interesting to see how the roster shapes out and if he gets a training camp invite.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:51 PM Jerebko actually seems to have cooled randolph down a bit...
whole team is still very inept offensively. Both Daye and Summers shooting like drunken sailors.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:51 PM Curry needs to work on his shot selection.
yeah he had such a green light in college that he'll have to adjust to life in the nba....well, not necessarily. not where he'll be playing!
BIG BEN'S FRO 07-13-2009, 10:52 PM man, summers cant even hit a FT tonight. Very unlike him.
Or maybe it is exactly like him and we just don't know it yet.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:53 PM all the more reason not to put too much weight into summer league. it's nice to SEE what players can do. but the competition is crap and even the good players don't show their true game because they are going against such crap competition they don't need to raise their level of play. it's very easy to play down to the competition....
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:54 PM Daye, Summers and Jerebko all missing on the same possession,...symbolic.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:55 PM pargo couldn't finish but he is proving to be a tough guy to stay in front of. nice penetration drive.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:55 PM Jerebko stuffs the ball through randolph. nice.
Every now and then, his hardass atitude pays off.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:55 PM summers isn't even in the game now.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:56 PM pargo with a step back 3! liking this kid more and more.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 10:57 PM halftime. we closed the gap and it's 43-39 warriors.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 10:57 PM GSW lead is cut to 4 at the half, 43-39.
Jerebko sadly has been the best of the bunch in the 1st half. Kept his mistakes to a minimum, which allowed his motor to show.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:03 PM the best of the drafted rookies. but pargo has looked nice too.
BIG BEN'S FRO 07-13-2009, 11:05 PM Is that Jannero's Brother?
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:07 PM yup.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:07 PM Daye actually knocks someone down and scores. jot that one down.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:08 PM Austin heating up...finally someone in blue is.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:08 PM and 2nd half is underway. daye with a sweet rise-up fadeaway J. nobody but NOBODY can block that!
Mr. Oobir 07-13-2009, 11:09 PM Nice start to the half for Daye - back down, then diving for a loose ball, and a catch and shoot.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:10 PM damn! sampson robbed us of a great washington breakaway dunk!
hard foul.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:11 PM Plaisted's inability to mix it up on the glass is going to really hurt his NBA chances.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:11 PM he made 1 of 2 from the line. wow, that oughta send his % way up! *sarcasm*
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:12 PM Daye is getting picked on a little by the refs...4 fouls but only 2 have been legit.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:13 PM good lord randolph is getting superstar calls. The crowd seems to notice it too, lol
Mr. Oobir 07-13-2009, 11:14 PM good lord randolph is getting superstar calls. The crowd seems to notice it too, lol
Young refs need to practice their NBA skills somewhere...
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:14 PM washington back to his usual 0-2 from the FT line that trip.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:15 PM it's hard to deal with watching deron washington shoot free throws. it's ridiculous.
He's a shooting guard that shoots %20 from the line.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:15 PM yeah it's being called pretty tight too. especially considering it's summer league. then again, i guess that is training the refs for the ridiculously tight way the nba game is called too.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:16 PM 'new' pistons owner is being interviewed. karen.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:17 PM Summers gets involved with an and-1.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:17 PM why the hell are they asking her basketball related questions?
bring out dumars and interview him.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:17 PM she knew prince's first name. good for her!
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:19 PM I like this woman and all, she seems enthusiastic, but the only reason she owns the team is because she married the owner, and the owner died. Asking for her basketball related opinions offends me.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:20 PM Anthony randolph rips daye blind and stares as him after the open-floor dunk.
Someone explain to him that this isn't the NBA finals...
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:21 PM lead swells to 13 for GS.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:22 PM golden state applying some full court pressure, and the pistons are not handling it well at all.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:23 PM daye and curry are in a turnover battle right now...
Cross 07-13-2009, 11:23 PM Daye misses a free throw...no one can make a freethrow!
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:24 PM I like this woman and all, she seems enthusiastic, but the only reason she owns the team is because she married the owner, and the owner died. Asking for her basketball related opinions offends me.
agreed. she made me laugh when she said that daye wasn't really skinny like she expected. WTF is she talking about?
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:25 PM yeah i'm surprised we're not more competitive in this game. our 'big 3' alone should be enough to keep us right in it.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:26 PM oh what a dribble drive and soft touch on the finish by jerebko! nice to see him use body control along with his aggression.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:26 PM GSW probably has the most talented team in the summer league. Their BACKUP PG is a former lottery pick.
We don;t have a single guard that was even drafted at all.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:27 PM pargo with another 3! send this kid a TC invite!
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:28 PM Austin will finish this game with 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 turnovers...that's where he's headed.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:28 PM yeah true. where are all these kids playing? even CA- decent big man who would do well in europe i would have to think.....
curry with a nice finish for a 3 point play. lead is growing.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:29 PM yeah not the triple-double you want. but he seems lazy with his ball control. just dribbling right in front for the defender to swipe it away. sloppy.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:30 PM GSW has opened it up...72-59 after 3.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:30 PM 72-59 after 3.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:31 PM darrell walker should be fired after this performance.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:34 PM Jerebko goes for the swat and winds up fouling morrow and actually guiding his shot in the basket...embarrassing.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:36 PM good lord the refs are loving those whistles tonight!
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:36 PM as good as randolph has been tonight...one team has 3 NBA-caliber guards, and the other team has none.
Uncle Mxy 07-13-2009, 11:37 PM she knew prince's first name. good for her!
Reminds me of when they'd have John Long as commentator and he kept on calling Tayshaun Keyshawn. :)]
Uncle Mxy 07-13-2009, 11:38 PM Austin will finish this game with 10 points, 10 rebounds and 10 turnovers...that's where he's headed.
Triple double baby yessir!
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:39 PM i think pargo could possibly make it as a 3rd PG. but yeah, point taken. we suck in the backcourt. washington hasn't impressed me and that's disappointing.
he definitely needs more time in europe. and even then, i'm not sure how much more improvement he can make. he's got very nice athletic skills, but....
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:40 PM the whole team standing around, going one on one...not at all what they did the last 2 games.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:41 PM wow. great pass from curry to morrow.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:41 PM i think part of this is the fact that this is our 3rd game in 4 nights. at least, that's what i want to believe. we looked disinterested out there.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:42 PM ah well, it is what it is. the coaches did a poor job in prep for this game, and nobody really came to play.
Daye and Summers both played like guys that didn't want to be there.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:43 PM 84-62. OUCH!
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:44 PM summers hasn't played all that much. or at least it doesn't seem like he has. maybe he's just been that quiet. he hasn't done a whole lot when in there.
Kstat 07-13-2009, 11:44 PM GSW has outscored the Pistons 14-3 in the 4th quarter.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:46 PM wow. 28 point lead for GS.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:48 PM ugly!!!!!!!!
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:49 PM yet another turnover.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:51 PM looks like jerebko is the only one still playing. nice hustle and steal.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:52 PM pargo with a real nice drive and finish. garbage time obviously though.
Higherwarrior 07-13-2009, 11:54 PM 97-69. what a waste of time.
DrRay11 07-14-2009, 08:47 AM Wow, I'm very glad I went to sleep at halftime.
Zekyl 07-14-2009, 08:51 AM We don;t have a single guard that was even drafted at all.
Deron Washington?
{Washington} definitely needs more time in europe. and even then, i'm not sure how much more improvement he can make. he's got very nice athletic skills, but....
He needs to just go hang out at the practice facility all day. Shoot 500 free throws, 500 jumpers, then dribble up and down the court 50 times, repeat.
MikeMyers 07-14-2009, 08:46 PM Is the summer league on NBA tv this year?
Kstat 07-14-2009, 10:25 PM nope
