Today is the Bull's summer league debut which can be seen at 2pm on orlandomagic.com
Some things to think about and discuss prior to the game
-What position does Tyrus play at?
-Does Thabo have the potential for lockdown defense and the handle to play some pg? Does he have enough offense to ever be a starting SG?
-Will Luuuuc make the team as our only 7-footer?
-Does anyone else on the roster have a chance to surprise us and make the team? (like duhon a couple years ago) A 3rd PG if Thabo cannot handle it?
-A chance to size up a lot of players we have talked about leading up to the draft
guys on other rosters of interest include:
Charlotte
Adam Morrison-wally sczerbiak or larry bird?
Sean May-can he sustain UNC success after injury plagued rookie year
Indiana
Danny Granger-Can he step up to fill Peja's void
James White-Was he the defensive SG we should have taken?
Shawne Williams-Intriguing and versatile prospect
Miami Heat
Vincent Grier-Well, I go to U of I and have a soft spot for big 10 players
Daniel Horton-another big ten guard, good defensive guard
Kevin Pittsnogle-Have YOU ever been pittsnogled? A shooting big, we could use 1
New Jersey
Marcus Willaims-best PG in college
Orlando
James Augistine-One of best rebounders in big ten history, AND he has can post up
Marco Killingsworth-don't we need another low post scorer? Even at 6'7?
Gerry McNamara-The simon birch of the NCAA
JJ Reddick-Can he play in the NBA? Not yet...being held out for at least some games bc of his back
IF augistine or killingsworth didn't make the magic (and at least one won't) I would like to see one of them at the end of our bench, especially augistine
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 09:27 AM
this is kick ass that the magic are showing these games. it should be adopted league-wide. i know my other computer will be tuned into this game.
Posted by: eddog2 Jul 10 2006, 09:29 AM
Definately think that Cedric Banks and Eddie Basden are going to play well in this summer league. If Banks was a little taller and stronger we could definately use his athleticism at the SG. Another name to look at is Chevy Troutmans who is a good player but is undersized.
Drago Pasalic played well for us in the 2004 Summer Camp and if he has bulked up and plays well he might earn a spot. He has a decent shot and he has a few years of oversees professional experience. Can't wait until 2:00p.m
Anyway, if any one of these players excel that would be a bonus. However, like the rest of you my eyes will be planted on Thabo and Tyrus. I also would'nt mind seeing if Luke has improved or bulked up at all.

Big Daniel Horton fan, kid is a stud. I think he has the ability to plat at a high level in the NBA. I'm not really sure why he wasn't deserving of being drafted.
Posted by: eddog2 Jul 10 2006, 09:46 AM
Do you know if he is playing summer league ball. I didn't see him on our roster?
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 10:17 AM
Horton is playing for Miami.
He probaably wasn't drafted bc he's another one of those guys who plays harder than his ability. He actually reminds me of skiles in that respect. He is tough and hard nosed and all that, but may lack the talent to get noticed by GMs on draft night.
I could see him as a reserve in the NBA IF the right opportunity presents itself. I would rather have him than pargo.

Banks, UIC's all-time leading scorer with 2,097 points, just finished a standout season overseas. The 6-foot-3 guard was named MVP of the French Pro B League in his rookie campaign after leading his Besancon squad to a regular-season title, averaging over 20 points per outing.

He has his own blog about being a rookie on the Magic website if you want to check that out.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 12:33 PM
excellent idea, dude.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 12:51 PM
anyone good with computers
I am at work and watching the streaming video on a laptop and it keeps giong in and out and has to "buffer" a lot
short of using a faster computer, anyone know anything i can do to make it better?

nope, however, game starts in 20 minutes. what are you watching??
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 12:53 PM
players were just warming up and stuff.....
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:04 PM
I'm having the same problem sport. Hopefully it will be at 100% when the game starts because the Magic website it says games will not have a live feed until the game starts, so I don't know.
Posted by: Goldmember Jul 10 2006, 01:05 PM
that scoreboard looks a lot like my ol' hs scoreboard...
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 01:06 PM
are you on a fast computer? This laptop is like 3-4 years old so its not top of the line but its not exactly crap either....i don't know
the warmups could have not been live bc it looked like the magic and not the bulls or pacers
but the last thing i saw was a clock counting down, now my broadbandthings says it is "stopped" and when i press play nothing happens...
same thing happening to you or not?
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:07 PM
I have the live feed now...
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:08 PM
I'll also try to update, though I'm not sure I can trust my internet connection.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:09 PM
Haha, clock stopped at 59 seconds. Game starts now.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:09 PM
ive got a pretty feed going. no announcers today.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:10 PM
Yeah, mine caught up now and it's the live feed. Buzzer just went off, Bulls on the right.

Great, I'm going to have some interesting posts then...

Who the hell is #20? He looks decent.

Somebody just got shut down bad on a turnaround, couldn't tell who.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:21 PM
I know thabo is listed as #2... but I"m thinking he might actually be #20....
the tall lighter skinned g
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:22 PM
Nice drive and finish, missed the number.
I probably should stop posting.
Same deal with a steal on the next possession.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:23 PM
I'm pretty sure Thabo is #20. That was a nice steal, he stinks at FT's lol.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:23 PM
12-6 Bulls.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:23 PM
bulls with the nice 12-6 lead at break.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:23 PM
bulls are getting handled... 12 to 6
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:24 PM
hmmm, odd that his number would be changed already. i believe it.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:24 PM
They are winning.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:24 PM
wait... arent they the guests?
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:24 PM
if only we weren't the home team...
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:24 PM
soxfan1, i like your avatar... nice and simple but very well done.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:25 PM
No, home teams are listed 1st. Bulls vs Pacers. Bulls winning 12-6.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:25 PM
I'm pretty useless on this. Only guys I can make out are Schensher and Thomas, and occasionally Basden.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:25 PM
Tyrus is quick for a big guy.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:26 PM
T2, not afraid to shoot (and miss) the 17 foot jumper.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:26 PM
LOL, Tyrus suddenly thinks he's MJ with these turnarounds from the post. Not going well with that.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:26 PM
Actually, it was from an a sig I made a couple months ago. I just reduced it and cropped it...
Posted by: Waffles Jul 10 2006, 01:27 PM
Tyrus looks good on the boards
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:27 PM
DAMN! He's a lot better on the dunks.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:27 PM
tyrus just posted up and got a dunk 
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:28 PM
That was pretty impressive, through 2 guys.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:28 PM
ahh.
thabo with the steal and draws the foul. he's quick.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:30 PM
sef just got owned trying to cross someone over.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:30 PM
A little careless with the ball, but Thabo can get to the line.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:32 PM
BOOO put T2 and Thabo back in.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:33 PM
I'm pretty sure this is Aaron Miles as our PG, #9.
Posted by: Waffles Jul 10 2006, 01:34 PM
anyone know the score?
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:34 PM
Yeah, kind of a junk lineup now. Something like Miles, Manuel, Basden, Harris, and some other white guy I don't know.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:34 PM
Bulls look good on the fastbreak.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 01:35 PM
has tyrus been posting up a bit?
how's that look, nevermind the results?
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:35 PM
Pretty sure he is #1
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:35 PM
(ivan) Drago is the other tall white guy out there (#11)
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:35 PM
media tip. if you are having a porblem with the video feed freezing up on you, simply reload the file by clicking on the original link. it seems that after about 5 minutes with my feed, it starts getting choppy. re-load and good to go.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:36 PM
Actually, I think it's Pasalic. Just hit a nice 3.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:36 PM
11 is the other white guy. Drago Pasalic, the big Croatian.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:36 PM
Bulls lead 28-21 after 1.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:37 PM
that's what he meant be drago.
it was a Rocky IV reference
the young bulls can score... 28 points after 1
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:37 PM
how's that look, nevermind the results?
Looked like he posted up 3 times so far (at least with the ball). He twice tried a turnaround, got it blocked once and missed the other. Also drop-stepped through two guys and finished with a nice dunk.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:38 PM

Yeah, didn't see his first name, looked at the roster kind of fast.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:39 PM
Luke shows some nice touch from 19 feet, rims in and out.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:40 PM
that was ugly... gave up a wide open three that missed but then surrendered like 3 offensive boards.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:40 PM
I think that was Pasalic
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:42 PM
You're right. Damn the 2 white guys who look exactly the same. (hair)
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:42 PM
Tyrus in for Pasalic. Whoot.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:43 PM
Tyrus should really lose that turnaround, not working well.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:43 PM
Thomas posted up, then turned and shot an airball from like 5 feet.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:43 PM
was that a terrible hook shot... or an awesome pass to a guy right under the basket
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:45 PM
Basden looking good, getting to the line.
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:48 PM
good block there... couldn't tell who did it...
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 01:48 PM
Thabo. Is. Good.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:48 PM
Bulls showing some good help defense, steal the ball, then run down court and nail a 3.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:49 PM
If he's the guy that hit those two jumpers, that was pretty nice.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:49 PM
#8 = Cedric Banks. Just called for the foul.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 01:50 PM
i think it was
i am still having some problems
the steal, the handle, and the three, wasn't taht him?
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:51 PM
So far I am impressed with Thabo. He has shown so good ballhandling skill, good defense, and a nice jumpshot.
Tyrus, not so much. But they do work well together. Just a misscommunication on that pas.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 01:53 PM
thomas made two free throws wow
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:53 PM
Tyrus, not so much. But they do work well together. Just a misscommunication on that pas.
So far Tyrus' offense has been brutal outside of about 3 feet, which was to be expected. Looks decent on the boards, not much of a factor defensively.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 01:53 PM
was that tyrus who got the foul setting a pick?
yeesh
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 01:54 PM
who is #1, short, but moves well w/ nice shot.
thabo = muey impressivo
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 01:54 PM
thabo = muey impressivo
#1 = Aaron Miles
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 01:54 PM
TT just picked up 2 fouls in like 15 seconds
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:55 PM
Remember all those Chandler comparisons...
Posted by: RememberThe90's Jul 10 2006, 01:56 PM
Luke is just making an ass of himself out there.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:57 PM
Thabo made a mistake and left his guy open on that 3. He tried going for the steal in the post but got burned and left his man.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 01:57 PM
Check that, Pacers leading 42-38.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 02:00 PM
sef just picked up that foul right
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 02:01 PM
Positive- Tyrus just got a loose ball and an offensive rebound
Negative- he missed from point blank range both times
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 02:01 PM
Tyrus with 2 straight misses point blank.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 02:01 PM
he is good at driving and getting a body to get foul
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 02:01 PM
Negative- he missed from point blank range both times
Made 2 free throws after a foul though
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 02:02 PM
And got a breakaway dunk in transition
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 02:02 PM
who broke up that pass and who just dunked?
Posted by: RememberThe90's Jul 10 2006, 02:03 PM
T2 with a poster dunk
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 02:03 PM
sure looks good on those break away dunks though...
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 02:03 PM
47-46 Pacers.
God damnit. I always refresh it when something good happens. I missed the dunk.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 02:03 PM
who was that big guy that just hit the three is that the next dirk that is two times that he hit the three.
Posted by: Bullies4Life Jul 10 2006, 02:03 PM

Well, to make a long story short, quite a few sports have this thing called half-time...
Whats with the cryin baby?
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 02:06 PM
He looks brutal for long stretches, but Thomas has at least 10 points and 4 boards at the half.

Michael Harris, undersized PF that played in the Ukraine.

Miles with another nice drive, score, and foul. He looks like a guy we might want to hang on to.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 02:38 PM
Beautiful play by Miles. Drives it all the way down court through everyone and gets the layup + the foul and converts the 3 pt play.

Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 02:44 PM
Tyrus back in for Harris.
Alright, 1st thing he does is throw the ball away.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 02:46 PM
he has had some highlights so far today
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 02:46 PM
Miles is looking like a guy that could stick in the NBA
but sadly no chance with the bulls
he looks SO small
and bc thabo looks like he can play point, we don't need another pg
he has really been playing like a 5'10 SG like dee brown used to paly alongside deron williams. Deron (like thabo) was bringing the ball up and running the offense, but Dee did a lot of the scoring
we don't need another short scorer
but after the summer league i would expect a team with scouts here that needs a backup pg to invite him to their training camp
BTW that was an awful kick out by tyrus he looks lost out there mostly

Theoretically Miles is about 6'0", not sure how accurate that is though. I would definitely consider hanging on to him and letting him play in the D-League. He's very quick, and was a solid pass-first PG at Kansas.
Edit- yikes, 6'2" according to the roster. Definitely should try to retain his rights.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 02:48 PM
Huge block by Thomas, but a foul called. Didn't catch on who.
Comes downcourt, gets the off-rebound, then turns it over.
77-73 Bulls.

And then he fouls the guy on a made layup.

Posted by: Butterbean10 Jul 10 2006, 02:57 PM
Man, you all are doing some serious brow beating on TT. What did you expect? 30-15 game? Give the kid some time. He was known as a huge project with a lot of athleticism. GIve him just a little git more time than the first summer league game.
Posted by: Waffles Jul 10 2006, 02:58 PM
Thabo lookin good
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 02:59 PM
It'd be nice if he looked competent for more than a few plays. He's VERY raw and looks lost most of the time. That's the kind of guy we drafted, and we're going to have to live with it.
I did comment when he made nice plays too, I'm not trying to make him look bad.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 02:59 PM
I can't believe this game took nearly two hours.
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 02:59 PM
cmon bullies... pull off this meaningless game!

it doesnt help that he's playing with people he's never been around. give him time, im sure this was a very awkward game for him.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 03:01 PM
I work zero hours a week.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 03:02 PM
I don't know that it will, this happened at LSU a lot too. I'd bet this will be typical of his first couple of years: flashes of brilliance mixed with lots of mediocrity. I do expect his defense to be better though, he hasn't looked too good today.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 03:04 PM
Bulls down 87-88, 1 minute left.
Basden drains the 3 with only seconds left.
Posted by: HoofHearted Jul 10 2006, 03:05 PM
Yedah, looks nice at the point. I just started watching during the fourth quarter and T2 looks aweful.
Posted by: HoofHearted Jul 10 2006, 03:07 PM
Eddie witht the huge basket!!!!! Lucky bounce, but huge nont the less.
Posted by: bulls91 Jul 10 2006, 03:07 PM
who hit the three?
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 03:07 PM
He looks decent. Hopefully he'll cut down on the turnovers. I like the ball-handling and shooting though.
Posted by: Waffles Jul 10 2006, 03:07 PM
NICE 3 #12
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 03:07 PM
Eddie Basden. 90-88, Bulls. 19.3 ticks left.
Posted by: HoofHearted Jul 10 2006, 03:08 PM
I believe that was 13 wasnt it? Which would be Basden.

it was basden

Posted by: Waffles Jul 10 2006, 03:13 PM
Lets look forward to alot of WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW's this season 
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 03:15 PM
For the most part. Had some nice boards, a nice block or 2, and a couple big dunks. But his jumper was off and he looked quite lost on the court. Made some bonehead plays throwing the ball away, getting it stolen, but for the most part, nothing that cant't be fixed. He didn't play horribly but he didn't play good either.
Posted by: WHarris1 Jul 10 2006, 03:21 PM
Basically exactly what you can expect from him. All those people that said he had a jumper...lol
Posted by: 72-10 Jul 10 2006, 03:22 PM
anyone know where you can get a box score on these games? can you?
Posted by: Butterbean10 Jul 10 2006, 03:25 PM
Not me. I expected a raw rookie to play like a raw rookie (1/2 year of college ball). I expect a lot of this during the season. All we can hope is that it doesn't happen at crutial times. Also, the talent level he will be playing with will be a bit more, therefore some of these mistakes can be covered. Remember, we didn't draft a 'play me now' player. We drafted for the future. He will be OK. I just don't want another Chandler, and I don't think he will be.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 03:28 PM
hey guys, check out my "Player of the game" thread!
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 03:37 PM
That's basically what was expected. His statline will look decent (I think like 12 points, 7 boards or so), but he wasn't exactly dominant. He's still very raw, so he's going to have some rough stretches. His offense was non-existant outside of 3 feet and he made some bad turnovers and fouls, but we knew that was coming. I wasn't that impressed with his defense either. He was an imposing shot-altering force in the NCAA tournament, which we didn't really see tonight.
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 03:45 PM
Exactly. He was bad. But I'm not terribly worried. I don't think he's gonna win rookie of the year or anything but one summer league game doesn't mean he can't be productive at all this year.
Posted by: ZoomSlowik Jul 10 2006, 03:46 PM
He should be dangerous in stretches off the bench. He'll be a good energy guy that can play some D, rebound, and make some hustle plays. I just wouldn't expect him to do too much more.
Posted by: soxfan101 Jul 10 2006, 03:50 PM
supposedly his jumper is very streaky... in that he can hit a jump shot but goes through cold streaks.... Still it was only 1 game so cant really conclude anything yet.
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 04:01 PM
This is all I got so far...
"First round Draft picks Tyrus Thomas and Thabo Sefolosha combined for 26 points as Chicago won its opener at the Pepsi Pro Summer League on Monday, topping Indiana 93-88. Aaron Miles led the Bulls with 19 points, while David Harrison and James White each scored 17 points for the Pacers."
Posted by: sport1016 Jul 10 2006, 04:07 PM
How did danny granger play? I woulda thought he'd dominate. But my feed was so bad he might have for all i could see.
Posted by: Serbbojo Jul 10 2006, 06:49 PM
dunno if you guys remember but Kirk Hinrich was horrible in Summer league so its not always that big of a deal if he did bad
Id say hes still an upgrade over chandler
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 06:52 PM
Id say hes still an upgrade over chandler
He isn't better than Chandler yet but I'd say within 3 years, he will be.
Posted by: Serbbojo Jul 10 2006, 07:03 PM
i dont think its gonna take him 3 years to average 5points and 9 rebounds, which is what tyson averaged this last season
Posted by: TeaLeafReaderII Jul 10 2006, 07:53 PM
will he be #1 in the league in rebounds per minute...]
Will he grab offensive board after offensive board in the waning seconds of the game to buy our guys 3 or 4 chances at the game tying 3?
Will he save a few games every year with his huge blocks in the final minutes?
Posted by: steve9347 Jul 10 2006, 08:05 PM

tyson saved zero games last year with blocks. you're thinking 04-05

Will he drop countless passes from Kirk Hinrich?
Will he come in to the season without doing anything all summer?
Will he get a 60 millions dollar contract and then quit trying?
Will he averaged 5 fouls a game?
Posted by: SoxFan1 Jul 10 2006, 08:07 PM
Well, you are wrong there. He saved 1 game against the Celtics with a block on Pierce in the last seconds of the game...which I turned into a wallpaper...
