Bruce Bowen played 92 of his first 91 NBA games for the Boston Celtics. Just saying....

That feat alone should put Bruce in Celtics lore.

Are you making fun of me for mixing up the numbers or is there a different joke that I'm missing?

Not making fun of you,  just having fun with Bowen’s feat.  :)

Kings won 4th game by 26. Did we clinch championship game spot? I lost track.

Final Thoughts on the C’s summer league team...

Pritchard looked good, until this last game. As did Nesmith. Romeo had a couple of good games, but I’d injured per usual. Hauser looks like a solid two way player that actually might be able to contribute with his 3 point shooting. He has decent size for his position and seems to know his role.

I hope that Bruno makes the team. He definitely has potential with his size, strength, and athleticism. Decent lateral quickness too. He’s the type of player that you want as a project and is still only 22.

Yam should stay in Europe as should the rookie from France. Hopefully one of them can become a role player at some point. All set with Edwards and I didn’t see anyone else with potential on the roster.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

No, we didn’t make it to the championship game unfortunately.

Pritch is a good player who can be locked down.   Granted Mictchell is an elite defender.  But there will be guys who can lock him down due to his size and lack of athletic ability.   Now he is smart and shift and full of craftiness.   But this is why I though the he's ready to start talk/stuff was premature.

That was the ugliest game of basketball I've ever seen.  I would have benched every one of the first nine guys (maybe not Hauser) after the 3rd quarter.

Atrocious.  And no one did anything different until they got benched late in the game.

I know it was Summer League but the coach should have pulled the plug after the 26th turnover.
