    Beasley will Beas

    The Player that NEEDS to impress:

    Sam Dekker

    Everyone else can go out & suck for all I care. They won't play any minutes this year.

    If Dekker has no jump shot, I will be worried.

    Roy Rogers. (Assistant)

    Kind of interesting to say the least because what does he know about D Antonis system? Or do we just run a freestyle offense? ...

    Likely the Golden Nugget. They did in years past. A sponsor of the team.

    Yeah it's his choice. He said he just wants to work on some stuff and run with the young guys. This is a contract year for him so I expect him to kick ass.

    Brewer is not playing, but he's training with the summer league team. This speaks volumes to me. 2 vet guys who are so pumped that they are getting some important prep work in anticipation of the upcoming season.

    They are also bonding with the newbies - Harrell, Dekker, Nanu, GP2, etc.

    It's just a hunch but I think most rookies during summer league are model citizens. They haven't stepped foot on an NBA court yet and they're desperately trying to crack a rotation spot. I think you could stick them in Texarkana and they would do the same amount of partying..little to none lol

    Not sure where else to put this, but wow. Not sure how it will affect his overall game (not nearly as physically imposing), but good for him.
