Wow, Scal is really pathetic.

I'm happy with the way most everyone has played so far.  Baby hasn't looked so hot and as I said... Scal :-X

Im not trying to take anything away from POB, but it looks like most of his production is coming against Clevelands reserves tonight.  It didnt look like he did too much against Clevelands first and 2nd units.  Against Philly he looked great period.

Is this just me??  What do you guys think?

Yeah, I'm mostly watching the Sox. But O'Bryant just had a really nice block.

As far as the new guys go - they all look pretty darn good. It is probably too early to say it, but it looks like Danny may have done it again.

Hadn't noticed. If all he can do is be good against the other team's reserves...that would be just fine with me.

Well being he IS a 2nd string C, I guess this will fit him just right shouldn't it?

I am following along on the box scores, and also occasionally refreshing CB and REALGM game threads  :)

When is Scal going to become a coach? He's lost a step he never had, can't rebound, can't block out, can't pass, and can't shoot.

Very Exciting game.

I liked O'Bryant's hook shots and block. I'm glad we have him.

TA looked solid.

I was impressed with Giddens's and Pruitt's defense. In fact, the defense of the whole second unit was what got us back into the game.

I think D. Miles at this point is a much better option for the 15th spot, hands down. Scal's managed to have lost a bit of confidence it seems... probably the Scal-a-bri-ne chant getting into his head. :(
Bleed Green. What does it mean?

Scal is really disappointing, it looks like he hasn't exercised or touched a basketball all summer.  No excuse for him so far, and no sympathy either.

If Scal does not get cut it will be a travesty he looks Fat as hell and cant make a lay up that my unborn child could make. If Miles is cut and not Scal i will be furious with that move

Great game for everyone, but Scal, BBD, and Miles.

Tony had a great game. He took it slow, and seemed really patient out there. He made good decisions and kept the mistakes to a minimum. If he can play like he did tonight consistently we have our new 6th man.

Walker had an really good second outing. If him and Miles are battling for the back-up 3 I'm ready to see Walker take that spot. He looks like he is ready to contribute right away with some decent scoring and rebounding off the bench. I believe, his style of play will make consistency less of an issue for him than with most rookies.

Patrick O'Bryant looks like he's far from the bust he was labeled as. I'm almost positive Nelson never really gave him a fair shot after what I've seen these last two games. He's looking really good and I'm feeling more comfortable with the thought of him as the backup C. I'm not expecting him too look too good tomorrow since he'll be going up against Yao.

T.Allen, Walker, and Bryant were really the stars of the show tonight. Great preseason team win.

Fun game to watch. I loved what TA did out there, liked what I saw from Walker, and like how O'Bryant and Giddens played through certain stretches.

im pretty sure that miles is competing for a PF spot. and i think that if scal didn't have this giant elephant of a contract he'd be favored for the final spot, i was really excited after game 1 but now i'm kindof bummed becuase i think Darius is the odd man out.

.... but the +/- on Scal was +12, better than anyone else on the floor!

I'd be interested in hearing about how Gabe Pruitt did from anyone who watched the game.
