Yeah, he continues to display good footwork. I love his up and under moves. How many blocks do Morris have already?

A couple times in this quarter now Chandler has put his head down and taken it to the basket against two defenders instead of passing to a wide open Nichols. No brownie points for that.

Nichols is kinda outshining him right now he might be feeling the pressure

I have no problem with that because in the NBA he should be getting blocking calls which doesn't seem to exist in the summer league. I guess there is no circle area.

That's a little wierd to see. They seemed to have good chemistry together in the previous games. I like these guys though.

I like our young guys, that's for sure. Nate looking like a real floor general tonight. Most exciting Summer League team we have had in who can remember when.

someone needs to tell balk to tone it down- he is going to get injured.

I'd tell him- focus on the things you need to work on- outside shooting, perhaps some passing & dribbling.

Its rare that you have prospects at 5 positions like this. That's why I was so happy that we dismantled the Sonics because they are in a similar building mode with youth all over the floor.

As good as Nichols has been I'm actually a little disappointed. I'd like to see him use his post game and be more aggressive out there. He's got the ability to be even better than he's shown.

Yup, the Knick scrubs gave up 20 points in about 5 minutes.

Yeah, Balkman is just playing like he does in the NBA regular season. He hasn't shown anything new.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Excellent game from Nate. He set the tone for the game. When he wasn't on the court you notice and that's when the Kings made their run. Don't know why Hanners has been giving the scrubs so many minutes. I guess he likes them.
