I'll look at the summer stats of course but I won't pretend they mean anything.

But there will be things of interest- do they use Kyle at PG any? How is Harden in the pick n roll? Does DJ play any center? Ibaka's handle and tendency to bang or not; how many minutes Vaden gets; does Hardin or Mullens start or who looks better; what Westbrook is focused on working on, etc.

Thanks Crow and OliSonic. I never thought to look on Orlando's site....

Yeah but you were right (thanks) and I was wrong and I don't like to be wrong- but if I am, I want to correct it.

@Crow
your faster then me :)

i remember watching westbrook so it was last year,
it looks like they don't have a direkt link yet, but at their main page they say "Enjoy live webcasts at OrlandoMagic.com" so i'm confident

There it is

Or maybe I missed it. Maybe you can tell Joe where you found what you saw oli.

They webcast it 2 years ago. Not sure about last season. Doesn't look like it will be this summer. If they were going to I'd think they'd mention it here
http://www.nba.com/magic/news/summer_league_schedu...

at the magic website it says there is going to be a webstream...
propably like last year with bad camera view and without scoreboard, better then nothing though

We play Orlando tomorrow in the Orlando summer league on opening night. Does anybody at all know if the games will be webcast or on any channel anywhere?

Any help would be awesome. I can't find anything.

@Steve H
Haha. Well I'd have to check their salaries but I'm pretty sure that trade would work.

Now if I think it would be a good trade is a completely different story, especially since it'd be the Boozer Rent-A-Player for a year deal. But without looking at the details, I'd say it could be done.

@J.G.
Well phooey. Could we land Boozer for Atkins and Collinson, or is there a rule against that too, Mr. Santa Clause doesn't exist and you should spend your extra time flossing your teeth?

@Steve H
If Orlando matches the Gortat offer sheet, then they can't sign and trade him until December 15th, per the collective bargaining agreement.

So, quite literally, we won't see anything involving Gortat and a sign and trade this summer.

I think we have the peices necessary they just arent quite ready yet

Yep, it was gortat or nothing for me too. If we could get a dirt cheap shooter, great. Otherwise standing pat is good with me

Unless Presti has suddenly gotten chatty, I wouldn't put too much stock in Hollinger's sources. Waiting till close to the deadline to make a low-ball offer for Millsap makes sense, and I am still hopefull we see a sign and trade offer involving either Gortat or Camby and our first round pick next year.

Although Steve Novak would be a nice addition.

Standing pat sounds good.

It was Gortat or nothing big for me and I'm thrilled with standing pat. That's actually what I expected OKC to do all along.

Yeah, Hollinger tweeted that late last night and I caught it before I packed it in for the night. I was pleased

Standing pat never sounded so great.

Per John Hollinger (ESPN Insider),

"In particular, while the Turkoglu drama played out Friday night, my sources informed me that Oklahoma City -- the team with the biggest stack of chips remaining -- is highly unlikely to splurge this summer. Given that the best available young players (Millsap, Lee, Sessions) are poor fits on the Thunder's roster, OKC plans to continue with its patient approach rather than overpaying for parts that don't fit especially well.

The Thunder will be value players rather than big-game hunters, looking for opportunistic deals between now and the trade deadline. A year from now, they could have as much as $20 million in cap space, two lottery picks (theirs and Phoenix's) in a strong draft, and one of the league's best young rosters. About the only way to screw it up would be to force a big contract into the picture this summer, and with the team already selling out every game, they don't see any need to rush it."

So standing pat it is...and I'm fine with it.

I always park there for games and sometime make my money back.

@Dylan
Main Street Parking just north of the Sheraton.

@MartzMimic

oh damn, where was this? i'd love some free parking next season

I can't rag on anyone else's shooting ability. The garage I parked in for Thunder games offered your $5 back if you could make a free throw. Let's just say Shaq could take me any day of the week.

That dudes jump shot should be called a "dump shot", what was up with that?

Oh yeah and I hated seeing KD throw up those ridiculous whorns...

i wanted him to say: "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women"

@MartzMimic
I actually thought the same exact thing. Sounds kind of silly now.

You know what struck me about that video? Who in the world would put KD at shooting guard to guard Kobe?
