PrintWarriors (3-0) vs Kings (2-1)
Game Time: 7:00p
Game 4 of the summer league kicks off tonight against the Kings. Rookie Anthony Randolph should be back in the game after missing the last game with a sprained ankle. Marco played extremely well last game and is, as expected, leading the team in scoring. I was hoping for a little more from Brandan Wright in terms of rebounding and scoring. Maybe I was hoping that he would dominate and show he's ready to live up to the potential - I probably am too optimistic. And lastly, after I questioned CJ Watson, he came out and had a niiiice game, statistically speaking - 23 points, 7 assists (more than the first 2 games combined), and 5 steals. The guy has been a klepto this summer racking up 13 steals in 3 games.
I'm also guessing that dreamleague will be there up close and personal to scout out Marco, Wright, Randolph, and the rest of the team. I'll be waiting for his in-depth analysis.
As for the Kings, they're throwing out Patrick Ewing (not sure why they didn't put Jr after his name), Quincy Douby, and the always-feared Spencer Hawes.
The Warriors have this one in the bag. Undefeated summer league? It could happen.

That the real Patrick Ewing’s kid? How come they get him and we get PatrickO something or other? Hawes actual looked pretty good in the minutes I saw him? Every team needs a player named Dooby.

CJ Watson
Still really not sold on him…yet.
I was watching the game vs. the Bobcats and he went up for a 3 pointer and had it stuffed back in his face. Yes he racking up tons of steals, but didn’t he have like 8 fouls in the same game? Cant front though, he is dropping some dimes.
So in the limited play, I think D Nelson is a bit over rated but since he’s from the Town, I want to see him make it. Tamar Slay has also been knocking down some deep jumpers too – possible replacement for Bookie? And Amundson’s a scrub, a poor mans Walter Herrman.
Put a little mustard on it

Ronny Turiaf
So is he a Warrior now or what? I can’t find any articles saying he’s officially on the team. The only thing I see is his Wikipedia page indicating that he plays for the Warriors.
CJ
he’s looking nice early, nice jumper, another finish at the hole
Kings lookin tough

Belli...
I love the dude but John McCain’s 94-year old mother could play better D than Marco
Douby
looks hella good right now, that’s how bad Marco is.
wow
marco.. try to move a little bit.. lol poor guy
did that thompson shot
remind anyone of hill to laettner
Director of player personel mitch richmond
lol, i wonder how he got that job.
d nelson
Nelson could be a nice final roster pick at league minimum, though he doesn’t have the handle to play the 1. very good defender though, excellent rebounder for his size and offensively he has a decent mid-range game and is a good finisher (bad ft shooting though). all negatives aside, i’ve always loved his attitude and he is a cali boy. nice to see him in warriors gear, if only for a couple weeks this summer.
CJ
is showing all you skeptics why he should be backup pg.

not a bad 'oop
CJ is coming along nicely, perhaps? nice catch by riley.
I can
Feel the energy that assist caused. They moved back on D to cause another TO.

CJ's contract situation?
Do we have CJ locked up at all long-term? Many are thinking of him as a likely backup PG (especially if we don’t make any other PG signings). Can other teams offer him right now? and if so, do we have any right to match? Just wondering if anyone knows.
OMG
AR with the monster! put that on the summer league highlight reel
Woot!
AR maybe a project(due to serious youth and skinniness/weakness) but his potential is pretty phenomenal. Man oh man.
ar
looks a little bit like sam cassell.. they got that big forehead thing going.
Beli's D (or lack thereof)
Belinelli may be the weakest defender I’ve ever seen for someone with decent athleticism and good size. Does he have any idea how to position himself defensively and not be stuck off balance?
look at his feet
they’re always flat and he is never up on his toes.
Hard for BW
to be aggressive when every time someone makes contact he flies five feet.
We are the future of basketball. Dub Love.
BW is still weak as hell

did anyone else feel like
the w’s did better when randolph and belinelli were out of the game? I feel like our defensive intensity picked up some.. which troubles me about beli and randolph. Belinelli especially – as others mentioned, he got destroyed by Douby in almost every way possible. With Randolph I just feel like he doesnt play with consistency on defense – he goes for blocks, but he lets guys go by him too easily and resorts to reaching and trying to swat from behind. I’m a little worried that after a full season of supposed coaching, beli hasnt improved at all on defense. That fact makes me worry about Randolph this next year too.
Douby’s unibrow is the new Giambi’s mustache.
Also, CJ isn’t surprising me at all. I watched this at UT. I would be shocked if he isn’t the backup point when the season started.

do we want to be the clips or do they want to be us?
does anybody else find it disconcerting that we seem to be becoming Clips north? They lose Brand, we lose Boom and we exchange role players? We don’t look like a team that can make the playoffs. And with Nellie’s short commitment to the team I feel like we are back where we were 10 years ago.
