A lot of snap judgments off the smallest and most irrelevant of sample sizes.

isn't that the point?

Actually, these small sample sizes are amazingly good looks at these guys. And it's not like this is the first time people have seen these guys play, except for Yi. These are by and large players people have seen before, so there are other data points.

Last year Bargnani had 12 fouls in one game.

It's a good rule. These leagues are for the teams to evaluate players, etc. Why foul them out of what's essentially an intense scrimmage.

I recommend everyone watch Alexander Johnson put his nuts on Yi's face at about 5:35 of the NBA.com replay webcast.

Really, the entire first half from that point onward is really entertaining.

[Clarkmeister]

Green kept dribbling into situations from which he couldn't extract himself, but he was able to do more off the dribble than Rodriguez. I'd guess he could make the Portland Roster if they wanted to carry a 3rd pure point.

Your obsession with AJ's nuts is more than a little disconcerting. Takes away from the analysis imo. What about Yi's nuts? How did Durant's kahunas stack up?

Anyone who questioned the Belinelli pick, suck these 37 pts.

[THAY3R]

I only watched the Portland game, and lol @ 10 fouls.

Portland's team is so ridiculously sick though they will be a dynasty for a long time.

[Mr biggums]

Belinelli= steal of the draft?

Man keven durant has great footwork in the post. He needs to get stronger to hold his position but he is like a finnished product already. They were running pick and roll from the top of the key for him not many 4's will be able to gaurd him. Much more complet on offence than carmelo, james even Kobe when they came in the leauge. He plays with super confidence. Will be in top 3 scoring this year.

Yah, but Oden will be #1 in scoring, blocks, assists, rebounds, steals, and will be the MVP of the Finals.
