2008 Summer League Game Thread #1: Bulls at Miami

[From the FanPosts. Thanks to paxson43 for putting up a gamethread. I didn't even have to ask! -ed.]

Get ready for Summer League, boys and girls! 

The Orlando Magic website will be carrying a live stream.  The Bulls play the second game of the day (first tip is 2pm CST) at 3:30pm CST (thanks Ozzie).  Make sure to tune in as the "announcers" are hysterical.

The media seems to be hyping this game up as the first match-up between Rose and Beasley, although if you ask either player, not so much.

Not a whole lot to look out for today, just hope that none of the Bulls players sucks too much.  In addition, we should keep an eye on how Rose and Beasley respond to their career ending minor injuries.

Doug from the Bulls Beat podcast will be in Miami the next few days and promises to have a podcast up after today's game.

Go Bulls!

Anyone Capturing the Stream?

I’ll be unable to catch this game, so is anyone going to be capturing it and upping it here?

Also, the announcers they have are awesome. It’s Seinfeld reference, followed by Anchorman reference, and then goofy comments about the players (JamesOn Curry is JamesOn Fire…) for the whole game.

working on it

Haven’t captured streams disseminating from NBA.com before, but i’m testing some of their other streams first.

Good stuff man

If you get it working, that’ll be awesome

by Syxx on Jul 7, 2008 1:12 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

The game's at 3:30

I don’t expect anyone to look particularly impressive. I just want to see Rose, Tyrus, and Joakim play together for a good amount of time, and look good doing it. The most important thing for Rose is that he build a good relationship with his starting PF and C.

by Ozzie Montana on Jul 7, 2008 10:38 AM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Or Redick

Yet somehow I see the inevitability of Tyrus dominating, and the equally inevitable fanposts to follow. I’ll probably write one myself.

Asked what kind of player he expects to be in the next five years, he said: "Not a star, but like, a superstar. Something around, like, Chris Paul, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, something like that."

by BigBenign on Jul 7, 2008 12:45 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I have to say I'm looking forward to

Tyrus swatting Beasley.

That’s my hope. My fear is that Beasley goes off for 35.

I say Beasley gets 20 points and looks solid

Then promptly releases a horde of rats in the gym.

I think it would be a reason to get low if Tyrus sucks it up here. Even Noah I’d hope should be solid at least.

there’s still halftime(ten minutes) and 2 quarters(20minutes) to go so u have time to figure it out before the bulls play.

for me, the player would try to open the stream and then immediately stop and say ready…i updated my windows media player and turned off my pop up blocker and i got the stream right away.

they will swing down to the game when it starts the next quarter. They are still playing the Indiana vs OKC game right now. Bulls come after this game.

Hey, they're focusing on what they're good at!

I love the comments like “at no time did you form a coherent thought, there.” Snarky at its best.

And then the random comments on the game are even funnier because of it – out of the blue you get “nice takedown by Westbrook” or “push the guy down earlier so you have time to catch the ball.”

Seriously, these guys are the big reason I hope the Bulls stick with the Orlando league.

If nothing else, taking Rose will at least piss off Pat Riley.

i’m very excited to watch this team. last year was so full of expectations, all we ended up getting was gordon and deng trying to up their free agent status.
the team concept went totally out the window. i can only hope that they will get long contracts and get the ship righted again.

north can be good.

but not on his own. when he was with jiggetts to keep him in line, now that was a good radio show. on his own on the score morning show, i didn’t care for it.
he gets rolling and goes too far, he needs a strong co-host to bring him back sometimes.

I'm glad others have noticed then.

He’ll learn I’m sure, but he’s out of control, is a terrible passer, needs to stop making spin moves at full speed, and play team basketball. He’ll learn I’m sure, but right now he’s not a smart basketball player.
