Understand the court is smaller but Mekel has had some bad passes.

Budapest Maverick · 07-13-2013, 05:55 PM

No comments on Dirk's baby? Or was i the only one who didn't know?

You might be alone there... It's a girl, so we're going to have to wait until the next one for our future PF.

He had, but he also had 2 great passes at least that should have ended up as easy assists, but the player missed easy shots, layups. I like him overall, even with the TO's, he's a creative passer.

Bayliss · 07-13-2013, 05:59 PM

Crowder and James should be a lot better than they have been so far.

Arghhh... Oh well, maybe Dirk can make the girl a word class tennis player, like daddy would have been if he chooses that sport.

I would. You will get to see a lot more than just the Mavs in the stands. You also sort of feel like a scout.

I hate the game in the summer. Almost entirely a bunch of guards jacking it up.

Melonhead · 07-13-2013, 06:05 PM

The width of this court isn't up to NBA standards.

I couldn't resist haha. I even shook Carlisle's hand!

jleefilled · 07-13-2013, 06:10 PM

Just thought I'd let everyone know that the game is being broadcasted on NBA TV right now.

Budapest Maverick · 07-13-2013, 06:11 PM

Yeah, the quality is terrible, spacing is terrible, it feels like there are at leat 5-6 players around the ball constantly, like in a kids game.

Budapest Maverick · 07-13-2013, 06:13 PM

Mekel had at least 5 passes by now that should have ended up with an easy basket but didn't for some reason, and 2 of that probably ended up being a TO.

Bayliss · 07-13-2013, 06:13 PM

Another blown layup by James. Geez.

jleefilled · 07-13-2013, 06:14 PM

Gal is fun to watch. As Budapest said, he's a creative passer. Nice drive to the basket right there.

Budapest Maverick · 07-13-2013, 06:15 PM

Great transition defense from our team, lmao.

Melonhead · 07-13-2013, 06:16 PM

Just had a slick pass to James. James couldn't handle it. I like sarge but we definitely need Daly in addition to wright.

Bayliss · 07-13-2013, 06:16 PM

James looks like he has never played in the NBA..... catch the ball and make your layups....

He created another wide open opportunity since, of course Jay bricked it. Mekel could easily have 8-9 assists by now instead of the 4 he does.

NO sh!t. He looks like he's not ready at all.

SMC0007 · 07-13-2013, 06:19 PM

Mekel still looking good :0! With a little help he would have better numbers, but it's not hard to see he has game.

The kid is really controlling the court on the offensive side. I like his presence out there. Nice find by Donnie and co.

dude1394 · 07-13-2013, 06:20 PM

First summer league game really stinks IMO. They can't run plays, James isn't ready to play. You can usually evaluate the guards unless they move it quickly, then they look tentative

Yeah, I'm not too concerned about James yet.

Who is 55 though?

jleefilled · 07-13-2013, 06:23 PM

nice drive and kick by Ledo

SMC0007 · 07-13-2013, 06:26 PM

I'm glad Ledo is ours.. I think he's gonna be the real deal. I'd hate to see him slip thru our fingers.

SMC0007 · 07-13-2013, 06:26 PM

Another bucket by Ledo. He doesn't really look like he has missed much ball.

jleefilled · 07-13-2013, 06:27 PM

Ledo jumpshot is very similar in form to Durant. Interesting.

Looking sorta Tmac-ish as a player imo.

Bayliss · 07-13-2013, 06:30 PM

Dare I say he is a Mekelangelo with the ball?

I liked the way he went up to grab a board earlier with one hand. Must have large hands.. He seems to have some want to on the defensive end too.. We'll see. It seems like if someone could just get into his head and wire him the right way, he could end up having a nice career in the NBA.
