JWaLL Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Anyone else going to watch it? I'm getting it on my local feed so I don't know how many of you have NBA TV but it should be aired there. I can't wait for this game. I'm also looking forward to see McGee and his new apparently "polished" game he worked on over the offseason. Plus we can finally see Trevor Booker in action. I personally have never seen him play but he seems like a really tough competitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Yeah, I'll be watching on a stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChosenOne Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 My prediction: 1-7 fgs, 3 TO, and 4 dimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AboveLegit Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Yeah I'll be watching. I've been looking forward to this game more than the World Cup Final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest STL10 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Minor groin pull, he's fine now. Alright, that's good because I wanna see him dominate. If Roddy B dropped 28 in the summer league, then Wall is gonna get 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Regime Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 ^Wall isn't a prolific scorer, a 50 point game is out of the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Wall isn't doing so good right now. 3 TO's already and only 1 basket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Weak so far, hope he can get his groove together soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 I stand corrected, nice alley oop to JaVale and he just hit an And1 layup. Cmon Wall!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YugoRocketsFan Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 John Wall is gonna be a bust because he had a bad 1st quarter in a summer league exhibition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Who is this Tillie guy on the Warriors? I'm looking at the Gameday thing on NBA.com and they don't him any information on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 So much for Wall playing all 40 minutes. I wonder when he's gonna come back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 He's gotta go easy on these turnovers... Damn... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 I can live with these turnovers... Wall's playing pretty good basketball aside those. He's a rookie, this is his first officially organized game since March so you gotta give the guy a break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWaLL Posted July 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Great body, bad brain. He's got a lot to work on.He's just a little careless as a ball handler. I loved his decision making for most of his assists. He was finding McGee all night long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 He's just a little careless as a ball handler. I loved his decision making for most of his assists. He was finding McGee all night long.I only watched the 4th quarter, and from what I saw, he seemed too focused on McGee and less so on the rest of his teammates. His dishes to McGee did not impress me. Those type of guys are very easy to find assists, especially when there isn't a center of similar size that knows how to stop him. Right now, Wall seems to only know one speed, which is not a good thing. He has to learn how to keep the defenders off balance by changing speeds, catching defenders off guard, and making himself less predictable. He forces drives too much, and constantly hopes the refs will bail him out, instead finding other means to create space. He lacks craftiness, ball control, change of speed, and overall decision making. As I said. He's got a lot to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AboveLegit Posted July 12, 2010 Report Share Posted July 12, 2010 Wall is probably one of the smartest, most mature rookies you'll find in this league.. His turnovers don't bother me, he made a few careless mistakes here and there, but the rest of his TO's came off of trying to set up plays for his teammates. He looked to score, but at the same time, was setting up players. It's exactly what we need in Washington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
