Summer Ball

[WSUwatcher]

If Grady is a better, more mobile, more active version of Durley as a senior -- and by the way, how many times did JT ever end up on an all-defensive team? -- he could be headed for a huge year.

[pogo]

I loved JT because he was one of our guys but he used to drive me nuts playing outside like he was a small forward. I lost count of the number of times I wanted him to get his wide posterior into the paint to block out for the rebound or the inside pass. Oh well it is what it is. hope Anton doesn't hunt his shot from the 3 like JT

Summer league recap

From that article:

"In the finale, Cotton chipped in six points, three rebounds and a pair of steals in a 102-100, double-overtime win over the Los Angeles Clippers.

Cotton was nearly the hero, scoring twice in the final minute of regulation. His reverse layup knotted the game at 92 with just under 46 seconds to play. Seconds later, he forced a steal and converted it into a layup on the other end for a 94-92 advantage."

See?!?! THAT'S what you get if you put Cotton under contract and put him on the squad ... night after night after night after night.

"He's too small"
"He isn't a scorer"
"He isn't a sexy pick"
"Nobody cares about defense in the NBA"

yeah, yeah, we know... but Cotton WINS GAMES.

Mr.Brand X is ever so slowly warming up to Grady. Well, maybe a little. Not at all to Conner.

I greatly enjoy reading your account as well as his. It's nice to get two different perspectives on the team. Two things I've seen that seem to be for sure from what I've read. FVV is THE BOSS. Zach Brown is going to be a star.

I might have to get down to Koch for a game because this Team USA **** is leaving a nasty taste in my mouth.

Morris has missed some summer practices because he was recovering from surgery. He's back - more cut - and explosive getting off the ground.

Frankamp has not been seen by anybody watching summer pickup games. Unless he's got some reason that's not known to the public, that's not the way to start out with a team with the work ethic and attitude that the current roster has got.

From what Paul wrote today, he's been practicing and conditioning with the team. Maybe Coach knows something that others don't. If anyone knows facts on this, please let us know.

This was my concern as well. Does he have classes he's working on? Why isn't he getting out there and building chemistry with some winners?

Conner's been seen, just not by 'Cold.

And he will make Ron's life much, MUCH easier. And that's a quote from someone that matters.
