Why would he play to the crowd? If anything, he wants to put pressure on the team. His best outcome is Celtics sign him for as much as possible, right?Quote:

Apparently Lakerland is going insane over this sequence from the end of their most recent preseason game where Brandon Ingram's length is on full display. Watch the entire clip... that's some scary stuff!

Nope. They were booing him for his racial slur: http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/2...ng-racist-slurQuote:

Had a Miles Plumlee sighting, showed up on espn top plays with a dunk.
I don't think anyone has talked about Grayson in this thread yet. He's been having solid to great numbers off the bench, both in minutes and in points.
Last night put up 16 in 6-8 shooting in 24 minutes of play. (Also led the Jazz in turnovers, with 4.)
And...Grayson still loves to dunk.

Here are some highlights. Apparently Grayson is ready for the NBA.Quote:

Some nice moves here from HG. Good to see...
A nice article about how the new Head Coach of the Knicks, Dave Fizdale, is appreciating what Lance Thomas continues to bring to the NY Knicks. No news to readers of this forum, although Lance's expanded offensive skill set just shows that he never stopped learning 'basketball'. Never stop learning is a Duke trait, right?!

The longest-tenured Knick, Thomas was a co-captain last season with Courtney Lee, who hasn’t played yet because of a sore neck. There’s a chance Thomas and center Enes Kanter will be voted by the players as co-captains this season.
Whoever would have thought back in 2007-2010 Lance Thomas would have such a better NBA career than Kyle Singler. The guy averaged ~4 ppg in college.
Amazing his achievement and perhaps just as amazing, the irrelevance of Singler's NBA career.
How about including Nolan Smith in this comparison?Quote:

Singler did not make the necessary adjustments to his game - and his shooting became increasingly less consistent with time. He had a few decent years and made some money- but he never really committed to get better as a pro. Still, many players would do anything for his overall career.Quote:

Lance even has one extra year of NBA seniority on Kyle (well, 2 now that Kyle is not in the NBA anymore).Quote:

Plus, longevity and importance with age are important factors that would probably make a pretty convincing argument for LT having the better career, even if only counting up until '17-'18.
