summer league roster

[SSFan V]

For what it's worth, I think the roles of the 10-12 players will be huge for this team next season. 

There's no way you will convince me that this team will stay healthy, thus someone will need to emerge from the crop of youngins and make a difference.

Does anyone know if these games are going to be nationally televised, and if so, where we can catch them (Sorry if this has already been answered).

Agreed.  I am really interested in seeing Swift and May, because I think either of them could be a legit possibility as the 4th/5th big man on the roster.  And then of course Walker and Giddens are likely fighting for a spot as the 4th/5th wing, so that also will be important. 

Even if the team does stay healthy, they need some of these younger guys to step in and play some minutes during the regular season, in order to keep the regulars legs fresh, so hopefully someone will really step it up.

I think the games are usually broadcasted for free on nba.com, though I was unable to find any links this time. Anyone knows any details?

i think boston will need to get 2 or 3 from this roster esp if baby leaves. i already prefer hudson over tony allen. swift could be someone who get some minutes....and now a PF

I'm curious: is the game tonight versus Utah going to be streamed on the Magic website? I read about that somewhere, but I question its validity.

EDIT: Looks like someone asked this same question a few posts above.

According to FLCelts Fan

we might not get streaming video.

Thanks Chief.

When I wrote to the Magic, they  originally told me they would be streaming the games on their site.  But then on their schedule, it doesn't mention a stream.  I wrote to them again and am hoping for a reply by tomorrow.  The Celtics don't play first so there will be plenty of time to try to find the stream before the Celtics play.  If I hear anything, I'll post it here. 

This is from page two for those who are asking.

We've got a link now.

How come Erdan is not on this roster? Based on dannys track reccord 2nd round picks have usually done quite well why cant they bring this guy from turkey and give him a chance to back up perk

I think Erden has another year or two on his Turkish contract. I would not expect to see him for a couple seasons. From reports I have read about him he still has a LONG way to go.

Are there any box scores for the games available at the moment?

The link to watch the game won't be on the celtics website but rather on the jazz website.

In addition this is what Rondo said about Hudson via bostonherald

"Rondo has already formed a definite impression about some of the newcomers, including Lester Hudson. The point guard was impressed by the rookie’s ability to get down the floor on time to disrupt a home-run pass intended for Bill Walker.

“That was a hell of a collision,” Rondo said. “That kind of showed Danny and the others that he deserves a spot on the team. He is very talented - very gifted.”

Cant wait to see this guy play

@triboy16f: What is the site where I can get the link (the Jazz site)
