    I just read this off of the Rockets web site. It was just a scrimage but it is always good to read about the Rockets winning.

    Landry held his ground on Kaman...that's awesome. So he plays defense and he has offensive skills that stack up well against an NBA starter. Not that Caveman is the best but he's average for NBA centers..about where Eric Dampier is at. He'll get the rebounding down as soon as he gets more minutes and gets stronger. Rebounding is just timing anyways.

    The rockets are just unbeatable in the summer league. Wish this would carry over into the playoffs. :(

    Conditioning/Practice are the most likely reasons. The fact that hes playing in vegas probably helps alot.

    I read that Kaman wanted get into playing shape, since he had issues with his weight and injuries after signing the contract extension last season.

    kamans just trying to "dominate" the SL like Yao did before he was injured in the NBA, turns out Landry had him fooled.

    Kaman sucked in his first outing. I'd have to say he got outplayed by the rookies.

    Funny how we manage to win the meaningless summer league games with a determined, midget PG but lose the regular season games when said midget is put in the game. Actually that's not fair because he would either be playing in a blowout loss or blowout victory so it's hard to tell.

    Either way, I'm interested to see Brooks develop and become a gamechanger with that speed. Maybe he could be a sparkplug for our team like Nate Robinson.

    So from early indications it would seem that Brooks dominates the summer league as well as JLIII did last year. Not bad.

    Goodbye John John.

    Well, didn't JLIII average double figures in assists? A lot of Brooks passes looked like they would be swatted away or stolen come November.
