Saw the game. Didn't even notice Thabeet out there, kind of shocking. Hill played much better the second half and I agree that Douglas needs to get him 20 shots or so next game. He was too much into finesse (except for those two three point plays). He has the body to be physical and showed a little there. Nice shot and form, more of a problem up close.
Douglas really brought a calm when he brought the ball up. Excellent handle. Since we know he can shoot I wasn't worried about the bad night. His 0 turnovers was an absolute shock, especially in summer league. The end of the game sucked, some pretty bad play by more than one player. Oh, and I'd like to see Douglas play more on the ball D as others have said.

Skita looked good. Hit some nice threes. Blocked some shots. Moved well.

I was more impressed with Skita than anyone else! He was active and trying to block shots. Because he. Can shoot I would think he'd be interesting in a system like this, but who cares, he'd be a end of bench guy anyway.

He's more serviceable than Eddy Curry and if can make Boris Diaw into a serviceable center I think Skita could work his way into the 8 or 9 man rotation

Probably doesn't even get invited to camp. He's a lesser Gallinari. Although he did make a couple nice defensive plays. I'll give him that.

Forgot to mention Skita. Damn, I'm glad there is a short form for his name cause I was always having to copy and past the full form. Anyway, from the start he caught my attention. He was very active on defense inside and with his length had NO problem blocking and altering shots, amazingly so. His shot looked good to. Just his inside defense alone would be a really welcome sight. To me, he was the best inside defender out there.
