David Lee said he is going to participate too. Of course Balkman as well. I am impress with Lee though because he will be a 3 year player and most don't.

Thanks Misterearl. I was wondering when the summer league games were going to start. I am really interested to see what Nichols can do. This guy shot like 69% from 3pt range during the Orlando predraft camp, which is amazing. Michael Redd was a second round pick too and I am wondering if Nichols has that type of potential. He is supposed to be a decent athlete.

A summer league team of Collins, Balkman, Lee, Chandler, Nichols, and Randolph should be fairly competitive.

David Lee should just rest up and not risk anything with his injury. He's trying to come back too soon for some stupid summer league where he'll just be taking minutes from others.

Mardy should be playing too.
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.

This has a chance to be the best Summer League team we've ever had. I'm very excited to see these guys.

David Lee has to get some kind of contact. He's been pretty much avoinding anything all summer and he can't just do nothing all summer. I don't expect that he'll play a lot. Just enough to get his feel back.

of course we're excited to see the next installment of "youth" that isiah can turn into future zach randolphs. I thought that he was modeling his teambuilding on the 2004 portland trailblazers but I realizethat I was wrong. he's modeling it on the 1977 philadelphia 76'ers.

I never used to watch summer league until 4 years or so ago, but since then it's become more enjoyable to me than the regular season. Are you kidding me, the Knicks without Marbury and related baggage? Let's goooo!!!!

He reminds me more of a Rashual Butler. He is not a 2 guard and he's not built anything like Mike Redd

It's pointless to put Lee and Nate in the Summer league. They can both play. Lee just needs to heal up and maybe work on getting stronger and Nate needs to put his head on a little more. They are both fine in terms of getting used to the league. Same with Channing for that matter.

He said he wants to work on his game during the summer league. I assume he is talking about his jump shot and trying to play more at the 3. I think he considers himself a youth guy and wants to hang with the other guys. It sounded as though it is his choice.

Positions are iffy in today's NBA. You have 6 11 guys who feel they can play at the 2 because they can crossover.
