Okobo not playing?
better than I thought so far. The starting center is about the most un-athletic big man I've seen in a long time. He makes Joe Klein look like he's on springs.

Harper seems to be a decent floor general. Could be a two-way contract possibility.

Harper is the best player on the court 
Essentially what I meant. But even before, it’s always been a crap shoot. I mean last year we were “stacked” and thought we’d do well in summer league due to our up and coming youngsters.
One thing that is fun is the atmosphere. Just being in Vegas, meeting NBA people walking around the arena, and seeing players up close - even “real” nba players. They do walk around the arena.

I like this Palmer guy. He reminds me of Jim Jackson.

He built like Marion and moves like him too. He's a James Jones special, 4 year college player.
If Spalding and Owens play in this game, the Suns win easily...

Rice can shoot.
Guess we didnt need them. So funny Knicks were supposed to be the Summer League Champs.
Something tells me Okobo isn't going to make the roster...

I'm going to give a 1sun type prediction and say the Knicks won't win 10 games this year !
That was fun
I think your wrong again

Yeah, well maybe it isn't that big of loss, harper clearly outplayed him.
Harper, Rice and Palmer all outplayed him.

I don't think he is - Gambo is basically saying he is gone, and the fact they waited till deep in the game to put him in says something.

Okobo might not be around but him not playing much in a SL game doesn't mean squat.

I didn't watch much of the game, only saw the last 2-3 minutes of it. I'm glad that Willie Green is coaching the team. Makes sense to put a player development coach in charge of things.
Surprised they beat NY. NY has more NBA players on their team than the Suns do. The Suns showed some fight and took things over in OT, which was nice to see. I like the 2 minute overtime period. That's short and to the point. I can't believe they go to sudden death rather than a double OT but that's Summer League for you. At least it didn't come to that.
A win is a win and I don't give a damn if it's SL or not, to establish a winning culture all games should matter.

It's interesting that two of the last Knicks' draft picks both tend to disappear in games. Barrett was awful, Knox looks completely disinterested. They had the better prospect talent, but just didn't show near as much heart as the Suns especially in the 4th.
Harper played as advertised. He was who I most wanted to watch tonight so I never took my eyes off him. Positives were: good floor general, incredible finisher at the basket with his incredible length, quick first step, excellent hands on D. However, he needs to distribute more. Looked to score too much tonight. Was lousy from 3 point range and completely disappeared in the 2nd and 3rd quarter (legs looked like rubber). He also had flat feet on D. With that great length and touch around the rim I still think he has a decent shot of making this team.
Lecque looked all of 19. However, he did lots of other little things that will get him noticed.
Rice looked HUNGRY. I love to watch a player like that work his tail off to make a team. Didn't know who he was before game time, but he sure got my attention now.
