Box scor
where are you seeing a box score? i can’t find one with any real time stats, just the score. and i can’t find a link to watch this game ANYWHERE. Does know one in toronto know what justin.tv is??
One of the knocks on Kapono was...
He shoots too many 22-23 foot shots — one foot away from a three-pointer. Tonight both his makes are 22-23 feet. That’s something to watch. Those are the worst shots in basketball.
Still.
If you take a step back, and you have two of those per game — that’s 2 extra points per game, which is 164 more points per season. That’s a lot.
8:58 TOR – R. Nesterovic offensive rebound

Mike Preston just said:
kapono just scored 5 straight and broke up a 3-on-2 fast break …
I love the fact that he broke up a fast break.
Do you have audio or vid for the game
I’m just following the box.

I think I’d rather watch the P.O. then the craze Evans offense…

I was so happy when I first heard the trade.
Then people weren’t as excited as I was, and my enthusiasm dampened a little bit. Now I remember why I was so excited.
i just opened up the game stream. out of the ten things to look out for, what can you say? is brand fine? is sam, well, sam? is lou good on his jumper? give me info.
Holiday is unimpressive.
He’ll be fine, but now I understand why he wasn’t getting much burn in camp.
And Christmas sucks.
I’ve seen enough of him. This game + 8 SL games. His shot is very average — and that’s not good when that’s your calling card.
just got here
was out for dinner and completely forgot about the game. just read through the thread and see that we we’re winning. excellent.
Speights didn’t look good.
Holiday looked like a rookie.
Kapono looked really good.
The starters looked good.
Christmas sucks.
Eh, a mix there of good and bad
saw 9-14 from downtown, though, with Kapono 4-6 overall and +18 for the night. THAT, my friends, is what we were looking for when we signed him. That good 3-pt shooting is extremely encouraging.
by the way
in related news, I have what amounts to courtside tickets for the preseason game vs the Wiz next week.
watched on Justin.tv. Jrue looked decent. Speights looked HORRIBLE. I would think he would be cut if he was not signed, guys. Played the 2nd-3rd team all 4th quarter, shot 27% or so but played decent D, I think.
What do ya’ll think about Speights?? Jrue shot a couple 3’s smooth that I saw.
Great movement of the ball.
The ball movement was good. Jrue’s two threes were nice, but everything else was a little “rookie-ish” for lack of a better word.
I expected this from Speights. He looked bad. I think (missed first half) he was alright while he was surrounded by Brand, Lou, Iguodala, but when he was the focal point, he was awful.
Yes, I agree with all your thoughts. I only watched last 1/3 of game. Thought it was interesting the Coach left the 2nd team in till the end. Good way to evaluate.
Yeah, well wins and losses don’t matter in the pre-season and I think he had seen enough of the starters. I’m glad we got an extended look at Holiday, Christmas and Speights. Speights is one to watch the rest of the pre-season. He seems to play well when surrounded by talent, and suck when he’s one of the most talented players on the floor.
Based on tonight.
I’d like to see our first five off the bench be: Green, Carney, Kapono, Smith, Speights. Our backup wings looked good. Our backup bigs are another story. I liked some of the things Smith did like stretch the D, but he was a little rusty. And Speights… come on man.
I`m actually excited to see how Carney will play.
I`m just not sure how the minutes will be divided between him and Kapono…that is, if both play well.
Green can have his good games. I won`t get too excited over him until the season begins and he plays consistently well.
Yeah.
I won’t overreact after one pre-season game, but I did like what I saw from the man they call BG.
