I do wish him well on his future endeavors :silly: :silly: A great thing. I've been watching Summer League play and Beal gets it. You keep hearing how his mature his game is and then when you see it yourself you understand what people mean by that. There are some players in Summer League that are putting up big numbers but it seems more in an effort to show off their skills then it is within the team concept. As the 3rd pick in the draft I'm sure he has the green light to jack up a lot of shots but he's taken very good shots within the offense. Even though he hasn't shot well he has done everything else including playing defense, gathering assists, rebounding and driving to the basket. He's really going to be a great addition to this team. He'll fit right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be that way throughout the season as he develops. Coaches don't focus on makes and misses for any player anyway. He just needs to take good shots and run his plays on offense.

He'll fit right in. With respect to that, I've been impressed with his assist numbers and his willingness to pass the ball (unlike Crawford and Young). That goes a long way towards keeping the offense in flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 In the summer league, I only get worried if a player looks like he doesn't belong. Everything else is a work in progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milellie111 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Mustafa Shakur Yo man, leave Mustafa 2pac Shakur alone! lol I use to insert him in the starting lineup in NBA Live 10 online against people. I would straight cook with him too. Scored 30+ with him everytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkFan8 Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Mack is utterly hopeless. I actually liked the pick at the time, but he complete lacks the size and speed needed to play at this level. Really need to find a way to get a vet PG to backup Wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's better than DeAndre Jordan and everyone knew he was going to get paid. To even suggest that he's the 2nd coming of Jerome James shows that dude has very little b-ball knowledge.

Yeah that's actually a really fair deal for McGee. 11 million per year is actually what I think I said was fair for McGee pretrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly... I just looked and DeAndre Jordan is making 10 mil per year. This is a VERY fair deal for someone with as much potential upside as McGee. Compare what he got to what guys like Landry Fields, Jeremy Lin, and Omer Asik got. Again...it's a very fair deal for McGee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again...it's a very fair deal for McGee. McGee's deal looks like a downright bargain compared to what Asik got. ~10 million a year for a youngish starting center (true center too) is the going rate it seems. Assuming he continues his progression, he'll be worth that contract. I think Denver got good value. I think that trade could be one of the rare ones where where both sides came out winners.

I have a (string) feeling that McGee played himself out of a big contract last year. I think those bloopers lowered his negotiating value a lot. He still managed to get a good contract, but I feel like he would have been able to demand a lot more if not for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evidently, it has convinced the Wizards as well. They addressed the need on Tuesday, signing former Indiana Pacers guard A.J. Price, according to Michael Lee of the Washington Post.

nuposse87 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Price is awful as well, this is another lateral move. If we want a quality backup pg, or SG for that matter, we're going to have to initiate a s&t. Ernie once again shows his incompetence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Wall goes down with an injury, the train falls off completely. ---------- Post added July-24th-2012 at 01:21 PM ---------- I wonder what it would take to get Shaun Livingston out of Houston.

RonArtest15 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I don't get what you all are complaining about. Price is a BACK UP. That's it. We wanted an upgrade over Mack, and we got one. The dude isn't going to play more than 10 minutes a night. We could have signed Jesus Christ and some of you all would take issue with it. Jeez. ---------- Post added July-24th-2012 at 01:23 PM ---------- Agreed, we really need a solid backup pg option.

Probably a Forward, they seem to covet those. They have like 10 on their roster. I'd look at people like Livingston, Vasquez, Flynn, hell even Telfair is an upgrade. ---------- Post added July-24th-2012 at 01:31 PM ---------- I don't get what you all are complaining about.

We could have signed Jesus Christ and some of you all would take issue with it. Jeez. Jesus was probably diminutive in stature, he wouldn't last very long in the league. As to Price, he had an average rookie campain Per 36, but he's been worse than Mack since than. I have every to ***** about a player that has sucked every bit as much as Mack has in his rookie campaign. Wall's reckless attacking style is not conducive to long term health, we need assurance at this position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
