In the NBA. Has anyone saw any of the new rookies play? Who is doing better then expected and worse. How is Rush doing. I have been trying to see how he was doing but haven't found information on him yet.
Interested in Kobe Bryant, Game Used, Rare Inserts, Rookies, and Autos.

Center-Eddy Curry
Power Forward-Tyson Chandler
Small Foward-Jalen Rose
Shooting Guard-Jay Williams
Point Guard-Jamal Crawford
They are looking for a veteran big man so Chandler and Curry probably wont always be starting.

My not so subtle point is there is no way in heck you will ever see Williams at shooting guard. No chance. The Bulls are trying to trade Crawford.
As for the Hawks, zero chance Demarr Johnson can play anuything but shooting guard, the guy is 6'10" and he weighs about a buck fifty. I think they'll end up moving terry or using him as scoring off the bench.
I heard the Suns rookies, Jacobson and Stoudamire, both looked GREAT. But remember, it's summer ball...last year at this time Zach Randolph tore up summer league ball, averaging 26 points and 12 rebounds...and then he couldn't get off the bench in Portland. It's a whole different world.
also, caron butler is injured but was cleared to play this week. rasual butler (heats 2nd round pick is tearing up the summer league!)..
i live in la and seen the lakers play on the news. mark madsen is what surprising me! i saw him drive in the lane and dunked! i used to think madsen was just a scrub but he can really dribble too!
I mean, Madsen might actually start to play, Medvedenko can do some great things comin' off the bench, George will be their 6th man, Kobe will be improved (pretty amazing that he still improves), the roll players will do their job, Fish will hit the 3's and guide the offense and Shaq will dominate, WHAT A TEAM!

Remember, during last years summer league the 3 names you kept hearing were Kwame Brown, Zach Randolph and Tony parker...those guys were tearing up the summer league. Only Parker had any kind of impact at all as a rookie.
That being said...I think Rush will be a steal for the Lakers...that guy is just too good to get for Lindsey freakin' Hunter...Toronto has lost it.
<< <i>Hey Chrisdeballa, do you even follow sports? It seems there's this team called the Duke Blue Devils, who Jay Williams used to play POINT GUARD for. He was then drafted by the Chicago Bulls to play POINT GUARD. The one knock against him was that maybe he was a little undersized at 6'1"...for a POINT GUARD. >>
Lol yeah i made a mistake it's supposed to be Jay Williams at Point and Crawford at the SG. Answering your question: Yes, yes i do follow sports, especially the home teams. Lol. As far as I've heard they have not been trying to trade Jamal, no rumors in the Tribune or anything on the news about it, so i don't exactley know where you got that from. Thanks, ChrisdAballa
also, bulls are trying to trade him because they already got jay williams.
<< <i>chris, i'm sorry to say but crawford is a pg also along w/ jay williams. >>
yes i know that but they said they were going to try using him as a shooting guard for the bulls.
<< <i>also, bulls are trying to trade him because they already got jay williams. >>
I don't think they are trying to trade them because they got Jay Williams and then they said they will try using Jamal at sg but if not he will probably back up jay. They have best whos a free agent and guyton whos a free agent and neither of them want to stay in chicago.
