the more i watch erden the more i see a 7 footer who is NOT pulling down rebounds or making people change their shots or blocking shots.

nothing special so far.

Erden looks pretty awkward. Harangody and Oliver look OK. Only problem is Erden is signed already and does not look like he will be able to contribute.

Thats an understatement for sure, I'd say he SUCKS so far.

James harden should not even be playing...

[celticpride07]

for someone who was practicing with the celtics for months i would say Gaffney sucks...amd Erden is bad too

[amenhotep04]

Lafayette can play. A couple of his turnovers have been simply him passing the ball to where the player is supposed to be. He can shoot, splits picks real well.

Harangody has played well, but I don't know what position he'd play in the real league.

Erden looks like he hasn't practiced with the team.

Gaffney hasn't impressed.

Jaycee looked good early. Green did too. The rest of the team have had their moments.

I think I'm more impressed by Ainge's coaching. This team came prepared to play against the Thunder's second unit.

Hey look! The Celtics have shot ridiculously less free throws than their opponents!

[misha]

A lead throughout the game, only to lose it in 4th quarter. Reminds something?

This is Gaffney's first game in a while do to injury so his poor play doesn't surprise me. Erden looked exhausted and out of sync (he hasn't practiced and wasn't he injured for a while too?).

Agreed.  They played better as a team than OKC.

Harangody reminds me of Matt Harpering.

[Nowee]

Why did OKC played a lot of NBA players?

OKC knows that Harden can play, so play your draft picks, or invited players...

[manl_lui]

Harangody did very well, 23 points, have very good range 4-6, reminds me of a shorter and younger version of Sheed. But needs to improve in his rebounding if hes going to be a PF.

Thompson off the bench with 13 points

Parakhouski has 10 rebounds, 3 off, 7 def. not bad, but only 4 points

Lafayette played well.

I think these 4 should be watched closely this summer league

We can only hope that his lack of playing time with the team had something to do with it.  He does seem fairly mobile for a big man.

Deja Vu

Its seemed like a reagular season C's game, with how well they played in the first half compared to the second.

Harangody looked good but I don't like his shot, I think it will get blocked alot, unless he's wide open. Liked the range though, I didn't think he had NBA 3pt range.

Carroll looked good

Lafayette looked good

Green in the first half, but not in the second

Erden = big stiff. Looked even worse when they tried to run plays for him in the second half

Parkahouski looked like he could be useful, but I don't think he has any offensive game.

Thompson & Sims could potentially be useful

Gaffney does suck. I don't want to see him again.

The rest didn't show much.
