Drummond has this disease- shooting below 40% from the free throw line. In the international game they will just hack him.

Also Plumlee appears to be better about hedging hard and rotating in space.
 
James Harden is a selfish player. I remember many people on this board wanting to sign the guy. He has talent but I wouldn't want to play with him if I was an NBA player.

Nice to hear about Neto. I can see him coming over in a couple years when Burke is up for a contract and the Jazz won't be able to retain him. Sometimes I wonder what would have been if the Jazz had drafted Giannas instead of Burke then they could have brought Neto over as a backup and signed a vet for a year or two.

Exum/Neto
Hayward/Burks
Giannas/Hood
Favors/Kanter
Kanter/Gobert

That team would be scary good in a couple of years.
 
Bummer about Gordon's DNP but am I the only one who didn't like Thompson's game at all? I thought he forced the majority of his shots, which isn't a surprise since he doesn't like to pass. Getting the 3rd most minutes is a pretty good sign for him I just wish him and Hayward had the opportunity to play it out.

Also I know Parsons only played 5 minutes but there was a specific instance where he was running the fast break and froze at the top of the 3 point line and waited for some more help and looked kind of lost. I think Hayward would have thrived on that play.

why didn't drummond or cousins play? are they hurt? and why plumlee is still in this roster? he sux balls

How Plumlee is even there over Favors is a complete joke and shows what a sham the whole USA BBALL is. Coach K lil homey playing with the best players in the NBA while several more deserving players are left at home.
 
was at the game - good game but disappointing that Hayward didn't get in. A group that may have been his family/friends were sitting near us - folks in Butler shirts, one wearing his Jazz jersey, don't know what his parents look like but there was a young woman who looked a lot like him. Probably disappointing for them.

Harden's play sucked - no idea why he saw so much court time.
It was pretty funny when DRose missed that first big dunk, but he had some great crossover baskets later in the game. Fun to see!
AD was amazing in all aspects.
Plumlee was solid, some of you underestimate him a bit too much.
Kenneth Fairied (sp) is not incredibly skilled or athletic but he does have great instincts and bb IQ. He played a decent game.
 
I hope there's another exhibition for Hayward to show his stuff
 
I'm guessing Hayward, Derozan, Lillard, and Drummond will get some burn wednsday. Can't play the entire bench in a 40 minute game.

Glad my homerism wasn't the only one that thought Neto played better than the other Brazilian PG's last night (granted this was the only Brazil game I've seen him play in) and I think most of you already know but yes there are a couple more friendlies in NYC and it was known that there would be a couple of DNP's and those players would get time in another game. To me that makes sense you have so many players and rather then try and give a few minutes to all the fringe players you do what they did last night and give a few DNP's and give them time in the next game and then the other fringe players that played tonight will get the DNP's.
