Nate Robinson - 20p, 5 rebounds, 4 assists
Didier Ilunga-Mbenga :D - 15 puncte, 8 recuperari, 5 capace :D :ok: :yeah:

Facts about Didier:

Goes by “D.J.” as his first name when pronunced (“Didier”) sounds similar to those initials and the “M” is silent in his last name (ce cretini cu engleza lor)

Mai mult ca sigur este the Upcoming Superstar of the NBA. Numai daca ne uitam la statistici ne dam seama ca un asemenea jucator nu se gaseste pe oriunde! /hello

[eddy_jozsa]

interesant congolezul asta... cu toate ca nu-s prea impresionante statisticile din primul sezon... poate are un viitor frumos.

Cat despre Cluj, abia astept sa vina americanii acolo, sa vedem cum vor fi... daca vor avea 90% din potentialul lui Clavon, sunt fericit :D

cat despre jucatori din nba in romania... mai putem visa mult si bine...

Summer League Report on Andray Blatche (Wizards)

Andray Blatche- Nailed a beautiful three pointer and then got excited and took a very poor one. Brought the ball up the court, took his man off the dribble, put it behind his back twice either way and then floated the ball into the hoop in the smoothest way possible. The kid is incredibly skilled for a 19 year old, the only question now is whether he is going to keep working at it and add a low post game to compliment his height.

Blatche was murdered everytime he tried to guard David Lee or any of the other power forwards, he looks lost a lot when he tries to do too much, but he showed some really tantalizing skills to make you really wonder how so many GM’s decided to let him slip all the way to the Wizards at the end of the 2nd round.

Blatche was forcing the issue a little too much in the 2nd half. The same thing happened to him yesterday, he started off the game looking like a top ten pick and ended up jacking up terrible shots from behind the arc and looking completely lost when it comes to rebounding or playing defense.

Ala e Payton? Sau de ce ai pus poza asta?
S-a terminat si turneul asta... In lipsa de altceva l-am urmarit destul de atent, mai ales ca au participat si Pacers. Surpriza a fost participarea lui Artest, care cica are obiceiul sa se antreneze cu "juniorii" peste vara, cand totii All Stars se dau in barci...
A zis ca a venit "sa se dezmorteasca" si ca o sa aiba grija sa ii lase pe ceilalti sa se afirme, ca doar de aia e turneul asta, pentru rookies si pentru free agents.
Oricum, a avut timp sa declare (http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/artest_050711.html) "I'm a ghetto-type guy. I'm from the 'hood. I'm going to be ghetto for the rest of my life."
