OPEN THREAD: Vegas Game 3 - Warriors vs Bobcats
UPDATE: Boxscore
Warriors (2-0) vs Bobcats (1-1)
Game Time: 7:30p
Randolph showing off his handles
Anthony Randolph followed up his 30 point performance with a somewhat pedestrian 11 points and 5 boards against the Mavs the other night. He's also got 9 turnovers in the first 2 games which needs to get fixed. Perhaps he's adjusting to the higher quality of play or handling the ball more than he did in college, but I'm sure Nellie doesn't give him any time if he keeps this up. Of course it's only been 2 games, so I'm still excited to see what he can do tonight against the Bobcats.
Marco Belinelli showed what he can do in Summer League by dropping 25 points even though he was just 2-8 from 3 point range.
Brandan Wright was perhaps just as impressive by scoring 15 points by going 7-10 from the field. His 7 boards were also nice to see in just 25 minutes. What's more is, he swatted 2 more shots and is now averaging 3 per game. Hopefully, he can continue to protect the basket like that and challenge some shots in the interior in real games.
I'm disappointed in CJ Watson's performance thus far. Just 6 assists in 2 games isn't what a backup PG should be doing. But I'm not watching the games, so it's hard for me to tell if he's doing a good job initiating the offense. On the positive side, he's averaging 4 steals a game. I know he's still young and showed some good things last year, but he's got to record more assists.
Tonight, they take on the Bobcats who show off absolutely nobody except DJ Augustin. Perhaps former Warrior Jermareo Davidson will want revenge for the Warriors trading him on draft night in last year's JRich trade but I doubt it.
Go Warriors!

Hey FJ!
CJ Watson has been playing very well so far in the first two games of summer league… It’s just that most of the time the players that he passes it to are unable to complete plays and also result in turnovers many of the time… Otherwise he is very aggressive in his body language while on the court and take it to the hole much more often than before… I think practicing with Monta Ellis has also helped his cause in a sense that he is imo much much more quicker than before. He is also more focused when trying to finish at the rim… rather than just flippin’ up shots, he looks to finish after contact rather than just settling for the 2 pts. at the line.
The one thing I’m personally concerned about is Randolph’s turnovers… it seems that 1 out of 3 times that he has the ball he turns it over… It’s something he’ll have to work on.
Marco Belinelli has also improved his ball handling skill. He is making the more obvious passes but I think it still is a step since he makes better decisions with the ball rather than just looking to shoot the ball every time he gets it.
Stop crying about it alright?!?! GO MULLIN.
From what i hear Cj is doing pretty good as well.
I like the aggressiveness he’s bringing to his game.
The A/TO ratio isn’t good, but hey, it’s summer league! He’s not going to have potent scoring options around him at all positions, so it’ll be harder for him to rack up assists.
From what i’ve heard from the second game, that even though he recorded only one assist, he could of easily have had 3-4 that game.
Warriors, Stupidest franchise in the league.
CJ's defense has been solid
And I agree he’s going to the rack with more authority, although he’s having trouble finishing still. He’s still a little small, and there’s nothing he can do about that. Good battle today between him and DJ.
turnovers no big deal
everyone in these summer league games is committing alot of turnovers, just like how everyone is fouling alot. its just a part of how the summer league games are played
True but still
could be improved by taking better care of the ball… you play summer league to get better not play just to play. Plus I don’t want AR to just be like “everyone” I want him to be the best player in Summer League.
Stop crying about it alright?!?! GO MULLIN.
Watson..
Truly hasnt been that impressive, he definately needs to keep improving, but Im not too worried ,hes gonna be our third stringer at point this year anyways,for a good shooter, free throws isnt his strong suit. Randolph has really looked good and the turnovers isnt too big of an issue, i cant wait to see how good he becomes in the future. Is there anywhere to watch this game online tonight?
man my mac is trippin
any other website you can check out the game other than nba.com???
b...b..b..b..but Mac's never have problems...

good one…. great name too…...no no, its Chris and Tim Burger
Brandan
BWright’s offensive game is sooooo pedestrian. What’s so special besides those long arms fellas. He just disappears at times. Seems to have good bench game, but not somebody who can hold the court for lengthy periods of time…
NBA TV?

we suck
we have 4 returning players against people who’ve never seen nba time. And we’re getting killed.
CJ
CJ looks far more dangerous with the ball in his hands tonight…
Let's sign
Oriene Greene as our backup pg. Just that layup alone looks better than anything the Dubz are doing tonite.
COUNT THE BUCKET!!!!!!!!
What a shot fading away!!!!!!!!! He should shoot every 3 fading away

he’s only missed 3 shots. damn, if he can do this in the regular season, at least we can somewhat make up the scoring that we lost when baron left.

WTF? Camby to Clippers
Just got home and saw NBA.com. We’re screwed. Clippers kinda got their Brand replacement. Sucks that another division foe got stronger. What’s with L.A. teams getting top not centers just given to them? I hate this.
But...
I paid so much darn money for season tickets coming up. lol (kind of, not really) I’m not a rich man.
im
disgusted by this game….belinellis trying to hard to pass and get assists rather than shooting the ball (which he is good at). cjs doin good. WHERES WRIGHT?! i miss ar
PEANUT BUTTER, JELLY TIME
wtf is up with the dancing banana on that timeout…. thought I was trippin out for a second, hehe.
How are we losing??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your all a bunch of idiots!
One guy says were getting killed? The score is tied!!! DJ a stud? He’s a freakin point guard and he has ZERO, that is ZERO assists! That is hardly a stud! Same thing with Bayless. he has played 2 games now and has ZERO assists. These guys are suppose to be point guards. Last time I chekced that mean passing the ball and getting your team in to its offense. 6’ tall players with ZERO assists do not last long in the NBA!
the annoucer
wow, the announcer has THE MOST ANNOYING voice ever.
talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish
ugh, typo
sorry guys, add a “n” to announcer.

Jason Thompson of the Kings
He scored a go-ahead and1 with 12.7 seconds left to beat the Blazers 75-74. I hope Randolph turns out to be better than him, cuz the Kings came to our facility to see him work out for the draft.
smearthebeard ur a RETARD
We were up by atleast 10 then they came back. Thats what the person meant u idiot. Its called exaggeration. And DJ is a beast, he averaged 5.6 assist in college. He is trying to get assists but his teammates aren’t finishing. Pay attention to the game. And have u ever heard of a combo guard? Bayless is that u F%#ing dumb@$$$. So is D-Wade and other guards like him. If you think your smart and calling all of us idiots, get the f$# out of here!!!!! Ur a total RETARD!!!!!!!!!!
i hope we win a championship soon
by Da Jrich tribute on Jul 15, 2008 9:30 PM PDT reply actions
Combo guards yes!!
6’0” NO!!!!! He had ZERO assists!!! He’s a midget and will not do anything in this league with ZERO asists!! CJ on the other hand had a all around game and we more impressive. I watched the game
duffus!

The MLB All-star game
Anyone else watching it? Heading into the 13th inning. It’s almost 1am out there. Great game.
Let's go NL
Even though my Giants are nowhere near making it to world series. Still, AL has whooped us 11 straight years
CJ Watson
had a 7/4 assist to turnover ratio….not very great, but 5 steals is friggin’ fantastic. He was pretty much the main offensive facilitator, while Belinelli was making his own plays without AR hoggin the ball, (in a good way). Plus Watson seemed always to be involved in the plays, whether passing, shooting, stealing or following up on a fast break layup.
We are the future of basketball. Dub Love.
Hey 7a/4to's is great fo CJ
compared to DJ… He had ZERO assists and % turnovers. Talk abotu being one dimensional!
damn look at AR's thigh in that pic
chicken legs man
D Nelson
So I got home, looked at the boxscore, and see a cat by the name of D. Nelson. Did anyone else do a double take and chuckle at the mental image of Nellie out there on the court? I know it’s summer, and anything can happen and all, but still. You have to wonder how he could ball with a beer in one hand and cigar in the other.
Don Nelson....
...better play Belinelli more this coming season. He’s somewhat proved that he can put the ball in the hoop. I’ve always said he has the potential to be a Ginobilli/Peja hybrid.
