Day Six Summer League Roundup
July 16, 2009 12:17 AM

。The Knicks' Toney Douglas continued to struggle shooting the ball, but he
performed his primary function as floor general quite well. He gave the
Knicks what they needed at the point -- game management, penetration and
kicking, creating for others, and, most of all, solid on-ball defense at that
position. Douglas now has 21 assists to only two turnovers in his two games.
Not bad for a guy who started out as a combo guard.
。Jordan Hill is at his strongest when he's facing up to the basket, but too
often he rushes himself when he has the ball in the post. Several times on
Wednesday, he lost track of where he was on the block, then flung an
off-balanced shot up from close range. Hill also seemed a little passive as a
post defender, even against the likes of Trent Plaisted. Hill stayed in close
proximity on defense to his assigned man, but rarely tried to knock his guy
off his spot. In general, the closer Hill was to the basket, the less
comfortable he was.
。You have to love a player who's useful at any spot on the court. Austin Daye
is that guy for Detroit. He's a new wave three -- able to work as the
ballhandler on the pick-and-roll, drive to the cup from the perimeter, post
up against most small forwards, use a screen the right way, and hit from long
range. Against the Knicks on Wednesday, he finished with 27 points and 13
rebounds.
。DaJuan Summers was the butter and egg man down low for the Pistons. I can't
quite figure out whether to classify him as a small or power forward. IMG's
Mike Moreau referred to him as a "Power 3." Whatever he is, Summers continued
to leverage his ability to face up for opportunities to get inside. There's a
lot of offensive weaponry there, and he can clean the glass, too. His scoring
line: 24 points on 9-for-15 shooting from the field, and 5-for-7 from the
stripe.
。Joe Alexander did a much better job off-the-ball finding space on the floor
where teammates could hit him for open looks -- not just on the perimeter,
but in Scola-territory along the baseline at 15 feet. The Alexander-Taj
Gibson matchup was an interesting one and it was anything but a pitching
duel. Alexander finished 9-for-16 from the field, Gibson 6-for-9. Gibson was
able to exploit his length against Alexander, while Alexander used his
versatility and triple-threat skills to beat Gibson. Meanwhile, Gibson became
the second player in Summer League to rack up 10 fouls. The Spurs' Ian
Mahinmi was the first Tuesday against Denver. Gibson now has 19 fouls in two
games.
。Summer League is the perfect setting for an athlete like Amir Johnson to show
off his wares under the basket. Johnson was an efficiency machine inside for
the Bucks: 17 points on 11 possessions, along with eight rebounds. He owned
the paint, gobbling up offensive boards, going up strong with the putbacks,
either converting or getting fouled (11 free throw attempts for the game).
Defensively, he was smart and physical, blocking shots and igniting breaks
with sharp, quick outlet passes to Brandon Jennings.
。After sitting out Phoenix's first Summer League game on Monday with back
spasms, Earl Clark displayed his full range of skills in his inaugural effort
on Wednesday. He initiates the bulk of his offense along the perimeter, but
he can do so many things from there to disarm the defense: a pretty touch
pass into the post off a dish from his point guard, a catch-and-shoot, a
dribble drive and pass-off that results in a hockey assist. He also showed
his defensive flexibility, bothering guards and bigs alike.
。DeMar DeRozan is far more polished than advertised. He uses his quickness to
build his game. As Mike Moreau said in David Thorpe's twitter thread, "Demar
DeRozan really comes off the curl with speed, balance and elevation-very
controlled. Will come off a decade's worth of pindowns." He also rarely
takes a bad shot -- uncommon among rookies and in Summer League, and
particularly uncommon among rookies in Summer League.
。Jason Thompson was an entirely different player Wednesday. He claimed his
spot down on the block, called for the ball, forced the action off the
dribble, made hard back cuts when he was fronted, backed his guy in with
force when he wasn't, and worked his tuchus off on the offensive glass. His
totals: 31 points and 10 rebounds.
。Tyreke Evans didn't start for the Kings against the D-League Select team, and
was very deferential when he checked in at the start of the second quarter
and throughout the second half. He went 1-for-5 from the field, 3-for-4 from
the line, with three assists in 23 minutes. Despite the off night, the change
of speed on his dribble-drives was still ungodly.
。Chase Budinger has a beautiful stride into his catch-and-shoot motion -- we
know that -- but Wednesday night he also showed the athleticism to put it on
the deck, weave through traffic, and finish strongly. He moved well without
the ball to get open looks, and even absorbed a few bumps on defense to stay
in front of his man, something he'll have to do this fall to stay in the
Rockets' rotation.
。Andray Blatche continues to be one of the most confounding talents in the
league. He flashed moments of sheer dominance Wednesday night with swift,
whirling post moves off good recognition that made his defenders look silly.
At other times, he tried to improvise and failed spectacularly. Blatche could
be a top-shelf talent, but his preference for raw instinct over tactical
strategy on a given play renders him inconsistent. He needs a plan. Still,
between the potent face-up game at the top of the key, and the fancy footwork
and explosiveness down low, it's hard to take your eyes off him. Let's see
how he fares this season against NBA talent.
。Dante Cunningham: NBA body, NBA aggressiveness, NBA defense ... NBA player?
He didn't put up the most efficient line of the night (22 points on 23
possessions), but his physicality made the Rockets' defense work. He often
chose to back his defender in with a dribble or two, then launch a mid-range
jumper with good elevation. When he recognized there was something better,
he'd build a head of steam and get to the rim. More than anything, he was out
there with a purpose, moving with the offense, mindful of where Jerryd
Bayless was at all times.
