Clippers - Grizzlies Summer League Open Thread
As we've discussed, this game should be a better test for the Clippers' front line. Assuming both teams go with their top guys, Blake Griffin will be matched up with some time NBA starting power forward Darrell Arthur, while DeAndre Jordan will be opposite second overall pick Hasheem Thabeet.
The Grizzlies' have been starting Thabeet and Arthur, along with first round pick DeMarre Carroll at small forward, second round pick Sam Young at shooting guard and former first rounder Marcus Williams at the point. Young. at 6'6", might be an intersting test for Eric Gordon as well.
Often teams decide to take a longer look at the other guys with them in Vegas at some point, worrying even less about the outcome, and resting their stars. I doubt this will be that game for either of these teams, since it makes sense for both to see how they stack up. It's the first pick versus the second pick - in theory, it's one of the marquee games of the summer.

Night off?
Wouldn’t surprise me at all. He’s got nothing to prove. Not only that – he also had his knees packed in ice after the game Tuesday. Not reason to push him.

I'm surprised this the first 8 sec violation
it seems like everyone leaves the PG out to dry
I guess no one is touching
A. Randolph and A. Morrow scoring records
was that 2 people blake dunked on?
crazy hops
agreed

Big Difference without Gordon
And Taylor has been very disappointing.
Gordon is steadying, forceful, attracts attention. Don’t see the effect until it’s gone.
We need a backup PG...
BADDDDDDDDDDDDD!

Players foul out of the game, after 10 fouls, in summer league

and a lifetime supply of chill pills
needs to take a lesson from Gordon calm down
In Gordon we trust
It's a good game for Clips
the bigs matchup
sorry I don’t have the links
you're saying this in the third quarter?!
a little early i would say…
these announcers are kinda funny
talkn smack with chris wallace
Talking so much smack about thabeet
then tell him how good he can be..
marcus williams
i havent seen the game to know how he is playing but i have always like williams game, if he is healthy and in shape clips should sign him to be the back up if this ai thing doesnt work
Marcus Williams
Problem with him is that he has failed already with 2 ordinary teams – The Nets & Warriors. If can’t get back-up minutes there, what would he get with us?
Carrolle playing like UAB
Run and gun..Makes him look good
well there goes the perfect record
I’ll take 18 points and 15 rebounds plus no EJ hurt us.
In Gordon we trust
So much for Jordan versus Thabeet
DJ was terrible!
Thabeet wasn't much better
7 points 3 rebounds 0 blocks that is not a stat line you want from a number too pick. The Game was worth watching just to watch Griffin
In Gordon we trust
I thought DJ
Was okay, he wasn’t great but he ran down court hard.
Why do the gsw
Have the best summer league players: Marco, Randolph , now morrow

because they always have the ball in their hand
summer league favors guards who tend to inflate their numbers. Alot of the times the best scorers in summer league don’t do well in the regular season (cough cough Bayless).
In Gordon we trust
:))
Taylor’s personal fouls: 9
