Summer League Action Game 2 vs Portland

PrintSince the normal thread isn't up I thought I would introduce the topic for everyone to comment on the game (if they so choose of course). Obviously I hope Greg Oden plays, and see how Spencer matches up, but mostly I'm interested in seeing how well Douby matches up with Koponen, the Norwegian big guard drafted 30th overall last year by Portland. This is the 2nd part, I believe, to any future success by Douby. The ability to shoot, and handle the ball some, plus guard players 3-4 inches taller than him. If he can't, and he may not, then his future in this league will probably remain in doubt, and ultimately in peril. So here's to the Summer League 6 (that's what I'm going to call them) Enjoy! And Go Kings.

Are talking about JT and Shawes. both say the national blah blah about both. We know better, and the stupid comments commence. What a shock that is right?
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on
Petteri Koponen and Jerryd Bayless are getting talked about
I suggest watching how Koponen and Bayless play together because they represent one half of Portland’s potential future backcourt with Rudy Fernandez and Brandon Roy being the other half. This of course is the other feature of Portland’s backcourt which is big ball handling guards (Koponen and Roy) and a legitmate sized 2 guard with Fernandez and an undersized 2 guard in Bayless. Boy, if these guys all develop that team is going to be scary. This doesn’t even mention Sergio Rodriguez.

I heard
That Greg Oden is not going to play in the Summer league. They will wait until the fall camp to play him I believe. The game is on channel 416 in Sacramento (NBATV)
He can shoot, and he looks great in a suit. Hey, everybody - It's REGGIE TIME!
Yeah it's on channell 416 in Seattle too
(Or it is on digital cable.) And Shelden Williams is in the starting lineup not JT.

The same starting 5 for Sac applys (Douby, Singletary, Ewing Jr Thompson and Hawes)
The Kings are in Black and the Blazers in grey (for those who haven’t figure it out).

I lov eto see a shooter get to the FT line
Douby getting to the line is a good sign. He can beat guys off the dribble. If he can shoot consistently from the outside he is a scoring guard. That I think will be his challenge, and every teams integrating him into the lineup of course.

Shawes for 3....why kid why?

Yeah
he was hammered then they call a touch foul on the other end.

I'm intrigued by that myself
I wish i thought of that in the opening statement. (And of course Oden isn’t playing.)

Nice attempted lead pass by Singletary
That was good vision by Mike. HOpe it contiunes.

So far excellent aggressive defense from Douby/Singletary
That could be a good thing to remember come whether retaining either for the whole season.

Rebounding needs to improve
Williams and Hawes are not getting the position they should down there.

I like in the face aggressive defense
I especially wish that the Kings could grab these boards though. (Low scoring game through just over 4 mins to play at 7-4 blazers.)

Better than basketball from the 50s like the last game.

Nice pushing by Singletary
Clearly his ball handling and aggressiveness with speed is showing. If this kid can translate this to training camp and the season he might be a steal

I love the aggressiveness by Ewing JR
Kevin Pritchard is being talked to. Get his ass off the air!

I like to see Shelden being aggressive
But dribbling isn’t his forte. That’s the problem with summer league. Sac up 9-7 now.

Nice penetration and kick to Shawes for the J by Singletary
(I’m liking this kid in the 1st qtr so far. He and Douby are the only 2 impressive performances in my mind of either team.)

Ugh...
nba webcast isn’t working
JustinTV is loading slow and resetting often ;(
Yeah
But I’m watching it on NBATV. It’s a much better watching game. I watched the first game online. I”ll do that if I want for the 5th game, but the next 2 games as well as this one are on NBATV.

excellent defense by the Kings both in transistion and in the halfcourt
It’s throwing Portland off their game.

Great pressure by Singletary and great steal by Douby
Both are bringing their A game and I’m loving it.

DOUBY!
That steal was sexy….and DAMN this is my first time seeing sean… WOW is he quick.
It was hard to see how quick he is without the clear screen
On TV it’s very clear that when he uses his speed he’s a total blur (to quite kamia).

Poor lead pass by Douby
I wish he had thrown that a tad higher and (Shelden?) might have scored.

Man big guys...
Play post, not perimeter, please…
Less fouls would be sexy too.
Poor take by Spencer
He should have went straight up. That’s where a lack of athleticism really hurt Spencer.

Singletary to JT!!!!!

Bad fading away move by Spencer
The Summer League Kings aren’t the cutting passing team of 2002. WE have to remember that. But running those backdoor cuts would make Spencer’s passing skills more dangerous tho.

Good play. No score for the Kings though.

Singletary and Douby have been the best defensive players for either side so far
Ewing has been good, but Shawes and Shelden have been okay.

Incredible
JT turned on the burners and Singletary saw him. What a beautiful play made by Jt’s feet. (Both JT and Singletary are exceptionally quick. It’s important to remember.)

Very much so
He beat 6 guys down the court. Any player does that is special.

Stale offfense
No ball movement and no real attempt at any. Outside of excellent defense and up & down play, the KIngs haven’t been doing much when Douby/Singletary haven’t been doing it.

Shelden went hard to the Cup
But putting it on the floor was a terrible idea. He should have taken 2 steps and gone up with a shot. I hope the guy gets a big man coach. He has some rough spots he needs to polish if he’s gonna stick in the league.

Go thru NBA.com
That’s the one I went through and it was okay for the first game.

It's improved from the first game
Now we get the NBATV feed, I got it fullscreened on my monitor, it’s getting the job done.

Nice block by Shelden
I’m liking this group of young guys. it makes me want to see them in action over the course of the season. (I especially don’t want to see Odom with this group. It will only bring them down I believe.)

Douby's aggressiveness is serving him well
By the way Koponen is Finnish. Apologies for the mistake. (I knew he was from that region, but couldn’t remember where.)

Great aggressivenesss trapping defense all 1st half
It’s been spearheaded by Douby and Singletary, but when the front court gets into the act it’s creating offensive opportunities for the offense in the open court. I like the strategy.

I think we're seeing the birth of JT the legend
This kid’s time as a guard is serving him well in the Summer League.

8 pts and 3 boards in the 1st half with 3:30 left for JT
I love this offense. JT passes croxss court and Douby penetrates. He misses the shot, but Shelden cleans up the O Board. I like this group I really do.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on
“Shelden Williams, that’s what he’s good at. You miss it, I’ll clean it up. Anything more than that, he struggles.”
hahaha poor Shelden
Shelden could hit a spot up or two I imagine
But with the team’s offensive fire power his o-boards will be just as valuable. If he sets great picks he’s a perfect Scot Pollard like role player isn’t he?

He had his moments at the end of the 1st qtr
But since he’s had little impact. Most of his damage came without Douby out of the game.

Still wishing Bayless had dropped to 12
...ah well. Thompson looks pretty good, too.
Rather have JT now
I think he fills a greater need than a shoot first 6’3 guard.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on

He can shoot, and he looks great in a suit. Hey, everybody - It's REGGIE TIME!
NBATV really changes the view of the game doesn't it?
I know it does for me. Very very enjoyable. Outside of listening to Kamia and Jones, but mostly I tune them out.

Should NOT be approved
This is another trade, like the Gasol trade to the Lakers, that SHOULD NOT be approved by the league. Absolutely insane.
Both teams have the right to do this

Anti-competitive
Just because a 5 year old “agrees” to give you his candy doesn’t mean you should be allowed to take it.

The best deal they could get?
Seriously – that’s the best deal they could get? At 3.61 blocks per game? I’m not buying it. I have to think they could have taken back a player from the Warriors or Sixers to get under the tax. I haven’t crunched the numbers, but this just seems ridiculously one-sided. I guess the upshot is that Artest doesn’t have to worry about going to Denver.
You have to wonder if Iverson for Marbury is next.
They were about 9 million over the tax Carl
I highly doubt that.
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on
Way under now
They’re way under the tax now, though I didn’t realize that Iverson is an expiring contract, so it would make little sense to do that trade.
Shawes needs muscle.
Lots and lots of muscle. More Alonzo, Less B52.

No kidding
And the kid was talking about trying to lose weight over the summer. He should have been on a creatine diet.
To be fair
he said he got stronger and lowered his body fat. That’s not a bad thing.

Nice pick off the floor by Douby
Then passing ahead to Singletary who got fouled by Koponen. Hit’s both throws!
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on
Douby had a poor defensive sequence
Letting Koponen into the lane breaks down the defense. You think watching Mike Bibby would have taught him this.

Nice idea by Shawes
But even Ewing Jr can’t run that fast. Too bad it had a nice idea to it.

Shelden is a big dude.
Shawes teach him offense, he helps Shawes in the weight room, and JT gets everybody running, then this could be a ridiculous young big core.

Better defense by Douby because he blocked a shot by Koponen
Too bad Shawes couldn’t have come up with the steal.

Okay criticism time
Terrible break by Singletary. He forced the ball into a guy in a bad spot on a 3 on 1. Maybe next time he realizes he gets to the rim and he gets him or a teammate a shot on a dumpoff. That’s a play made by an older player, or a wiser player.

It’s not one that will be considered a top shelf play, but he just went to the line on an And1. So he’s got a decent J, but he drives and gets to the line. I like that. If he makes both it seems like not a big deal. But 2 ft’s is always better than a J at any level isn’t it?

Better feed by Singletary
But alto of that had to do with JT and the beautiful catch he made. Absolutely great catch in traffic with the ball slightly behind him.

Portland has no offense without Bayless or Koponen
And the difference when JT comes in the game is very stark. He’s already creating matchup problems for teams without superior talent around. The JT era is ready to commence. The Doubster now has 21 (alot of FT’s).

Offensive goaltending by Ewing Jr. But the real problem was Shawes trying to back down 2 offensive players, and rather passing out of the double team. Spencer stop trying my nerves white boy. Or I will murder you on E Madison!

The loopy part is that I started it
Clearly we’re all interested in the summer league. (Probably 150 of those comments were mine anyway. I had the game on Tv and wanted to point out interesting stuff. I aint gonna recap this crap though.)
No mistakes in the tango, darling. Not like life. It's simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get tangled, you tango on
Other than Fan Shots yeah it was
But it was also on purpose too. I didn’t want to moan on about a summer league game. Since when do pre-game opinions of summer league matter? The point is to get a feel for your young players. We’re getting that. I’m happy. (I’m sure Jt’s performance, all joking aside, had to make you happy if you saw any of the highlights. The best part was definitely JT out running 6 guys down the floor and Singletary finding him for an easy hoop.)

Sure did. Three year deal. Last year is team’s option I think.

Where did you get that information? There is no way the Kings gave a second round pick a guaranteed two year deal before summer league even started. Jason Thompson got a three year deal. Please provide a source for Ewing’s deal.
They signed them to non-guaranteed contracts
I’ll try to find something other than the nba transaction list (which did say the kings signed singletary & ewing to contracts-what exactly we don’t know carl-don’t flip out).

Not I
I was busy trying to give people an idea of the important stuff that happened from the Kings end.

You and JC need to liveblog a beer bong event
Because clearly watching basketball is not tapping into your innermost talents.

I do appologize
I was watching the All-Star game tonight, so I missed out on what looks like a great game of commenting. Lets hope this momentum holds up for the season. I’ve got a good feeling. (hey-yo!)

I figure it's either some new gang talk
or they’re terrorists calling for a strike.
Or it’s from a commercial that I can’t see over here.

For the commercials?
Thanks, but I’ll pass.

Experiment I'd like to see
Five minutes of JT at the three –
Singletary
Douby
Thompson
Williams
Hawes
How many three-man skills does he have? Clearly I don’t want him developing into a three, but it would be nice if he could play it.

Beat me to it
Yeah they did that tonight IW.

It happened when Ewing left the game.

eternal skeptical optimist
Bayless...Bayless
Was he the rookie that hit the game winner? Oh, wait. That was Jason Thompson.
Bayless looks like he’s going to be a player, though someone issued the blanket MArco Belinelli warning earlier.
SACTOWN ROYALTY - Try our thick creamy shakes!
Nothing intended
But the wound is still fresh as we were hoping that he would drop to us. May work out well for everyone, though. I think that Bayless will help you at both guard positions, but I don’t think that he’ll be an NBA point for awhile. Of course, teamed with Roy that does not matter as much.

JT34
is on the front page of NBA.com kid is getting some recognition.
Best player on the court tonight between the 2 teams
In my humble opinion.

Before the draft, everyone was hoping we get Bayless, Westbrook or Augustine.. But Douby just showed us he can do what Bayless could do and probably prove he’s better… The guy got it done on both sides of the balll… I hope he’s starting to open your eyes to what he can really do now…
I'll believe Douby can do it when he does it at the NBA level
Douby is a much better defender than Bayless is at this point though. That much is obvious right now.

In my opinion, Douby gambles on defense a little too much. Sometimes the stars align and he gets 5 or 6 steals in a game, but sometimes he’ll go for something and then get completely burned on a pick and roll.
Yeah the Blazers figured him out by the end of the game
That much is true. But Douby’s defense for the most part was one reason the Kings didn’t outright lose. He & Singletary gave up a ton of size ot Koponen and Bayless and it really didn’t matter tonight as much as it should.

Yeah, the individual defensive efforts were pretty good by Douby and Sean! Team defense, however, was pretty lousy as most of the time when someone would get beat on a pick, help either never came or always came late. I noticed that was something that was killing Sean defensively, despite how well he played his man (at times).
His quickness certainly benefits him on both ends, though! He’s shown the desire to be good defensively, which is a really great thing to see.
Guarding a guy 4 or 8 inches taller than you is no easy task
I think the fact that they matched up so well means both guys play bigger than your height. You look for that on defense when you’re a coach, or I hope Theus was looking at that. Nevermind that Hawes was utterly awful tonight on both ends. He was absolutely worthless the whole game. Hopefully it lights a fire under him for the next 3 games.

Nice to see The Landlord
banging around inside and scooping up rebounds and put-backs. We need that kind of play.
It’d be great if he could continue to improve his game a notch or two and help out this season.

(Hunter Thompson)
I'm really happy about Thompson's nice stat line but..
..the way he scored wasn’t very promising. Most of his baskets where in traffic without him using any post moves, just clumsy drives. I’m still very cautiously optimistic about him.
On the other hand Douby was beautiful. His strong drives, good passes etc, his passion. He was great. I wish he could play like that during the season. We have to make some plays for him, try to feed him off the screens. I think he would be great.
