2012 ATLANTA HAWKS SUMMER LEAGUE ROSTER NOTABLES



#45 Derrick Caracter
#12 John Jenkins

Ice cold start.

Moore, oh-fer.

Xmas with a little something. Rebounds and passing, not shooting.

Sully blocked underneath.

GREAT play by Xmas. Drove to the hoop and dropped it off to Joseph for the layup plus one.

Great courtvision by Xmas.

Xmas is being aggressive. If he sees some daylight to the hoop he's taking it.

2 fouls on Sully.

He bailed Benson out on the first foul but this was just a bad foul.

Aggression by Xmas.

This kid is going to make a pro team. If the Celts don't keep him somebody will, he's playing well.

Considering how badly we're shooting and how well they're executing it's amazing we're only down 2.

Sean Williams a little active. Fouled on a shot and fought for a rebound. Let's hope he recognizes this for what it is, his last chance.

GREAT interior pass by Melo to Williams!

Wow! I had no idea Melo could see that!

Just got in to see the last part of the first nice little run. Christmas with a bit of contact and still put it in.

Keeper???

23-16 Celts after 1.

Only 2-12 or such but a lot of free throws. We're making plays that are making them foul. Xmas and Joseph driving, Williams working inside.

Melo looking better than he did before. Haven't seen many pick-and-rolls yet though...

Amazing how much better you can rebound when you box out MELO!!

Keith Benson is very active on the boards.

Hey beat.

Xmas with the steal and Moore running the floor.

Xmas with another good game.

Melo has good courtvision. He really does. That is a completely unexpected but appreciated side of his game that I didn't know he had.

The Baby Bull getting boards.

Melo with a good half. Pleasantly surprised.

Xmas with a good half.

Joseph was active while in, but I don't think he got a lot of minutes.

Moore with a lot of shots. A lot.

Hey Bob

We are playing well, punched their kids right in the nose and stole their lunch money!

Melo seems a bit more comfortable out there too!

49-31 Celts at the half.

Every Celtic with a positive +/-

JJJ played 10:27 minutes and has the smallest +/- with 2.

Got in just a few moments ago and caught up with reading your comments. Thanks guys.
So many players looking good, Danny's going to have some tough decisions to make.

Oh, by the way where's Sam? We're up by 18.

Phoenix just amnestied Josh Childress.

Childress, Scola, Rashard Lewis. A lot of quality players getting cut loose.

Nice block by JJJ, staying with it. Nice play by Sully too.

Sully scoring on an array of shots.

Jenkins is faking Xmas out of his sneakers.

Moore not playing point well again.

60-43 Celtics.

Joseph with 2 shots in a row, 1 a 3. Hasn't gotten a lot of touches this game, but he's making the most of what he's getting.

Moore looking shaky with the ball.

Sully pounding people into paste.

what an incredibly stupid, frustration foul by Melo.

dumb shot by Joseph. That is the 1st really dumb thing I've seen him do in 6 games. Even if he hit that the coaches weren't going to be happy with how it happened.

We're sloppy as hell but we're still up by 20.

This is one very good summer league team.
