#12 might be the worst player I have ever seen.

Michael Bradley is definitely the worst player I have ever seen, he has no talent at all.

Banks is a disappointment for me, he didnt learn anything, cant run the offense, he is still a ballhogger.

No one looks particularly great out there. Banks and Tucker looked decent though. Best play so far was the Strawberry steal and dunk. George hit a few baskets too. Sow needs a lot of work. No one else even worth mentioning. Good defense in the second quarter.

add #5 adam hess, what a tool! 2 blocking fouls in 3 seconds before they even get to the 3 point line.

Anyone of note who owns #4 #3 #17 #12 and #5 or better yet, do the Suns have any NBA caliber talent on the floor including Tucker or Strawberry.

This game looks like a playground game except fouls are called which makes it painful. Every trip down the court there is a whistle.

Banks is being set up to fail with the players he has around him. Nash would struggle.

Not impressed with anybody at all. I agree that both Strawberry and Tucker looked small out there. For instance Tucker kept going to the hoop like he was going to be a rebounding machine and kept getting shoved out by the bigger bodies.

I really hope that Marcus was just rusty. Because if he keeps that up, we might as well get used to seeing him at the end of our bench taking up cap space. Marcus wasn't playing very well on defense either.

Banks is starting to catch fire. They don't look so great out there at all, but having no announcers or sound makes them look even worse.

These summer games make me wonder why I didnt think I could make it...

every time down the court if someone doesnt get fouled, its either a traveling call, an airball, or a pass not even close to its target.



I also think the 10 foul limit per player is a horrible idea.

Banks has hit three in a row. Two threes and an "and 1" on a jumper. If he can consistently hit that jumper he will be successful.

Strawberry has six fouls.

Anybody distributing the ball? I heard Strawberry might have some PG skills.

Banks decided to take over and try to bring us back, so he's taking all the shots now. But we are playing horrible defense now. Banks doesn't really have anyone to pass to; he is easily the best shooter on the floor.

he's also picked up 2 fouls in the last couple minutes on useless reach ins

he's decided to play shooting guard now, which isnt the point of him being in summer league.

Banks just nailed another 3 and had a really nice "assist" except the player under the basket wasn't paying attention. It was a very nice pass though.

Edit: Banks goes the length of the court and makes a tough layup.

An assist in summer league should count if he bangs it off the players hands, head or chest. :)

Since when was defense defined as making fouls on the other team every other time down the court and make stupid reach in fouls? Banks....cough....cough.

Final - 89-93, Cleveland.

I'm not hearing Tucker's name anymore. A bad sign?

It became defined that way when they started allowing 10 fouls per player in the summer league. It really changes the way they play defense, which makes the whole idea stupid.
