2012 Hoop Summit--Did anybody watch??

Did you form any opinions?? Besides "God, please give us Anthony Davis this year and Shabazz Muhammed next year..."??

This year's Bismack Biyombo (aka international player who helped his draft stock the most) goes to Wang Zhelin who scored 19 points on 8-11 shooting, and added 8 rebounds. I also like that Shabazz Muhammed scored 35, but I did not like that it took him 27 shots to get it.

I watched the first half or so, mainly to catch Muhammed, Wiggins, and Anderson. Nobody else really impressed me much out of those three.

Yeah, 27 is a ton of shots, but you know what is sad?? Shabazz STILL had a higher points-per-shot average than every one of our Bobcats players has this whole season, EXCEPT Derrick Brown.

Shabazz in the Hoop Summit 1.29 points per shot attempt (35 on 27)
Derrick Brown(Bobcats leader) 1.33 pps
Bobcats average 1.09 pps

This is definitely an area we need to improve on.

And....

I'm not just saying this because he is chinese, but didn't Wang look like he could be Yao Ming's little brother? I mean, he was built just like him. Same head, neck, shoulders. He looked like he had good balance and timing catching and shooting inside.

Muhammed's measurements were fantastic:

The Canadian Bennett showed some promise with 11 boards and the clutch fadeaway 3 at the end. Only 6'7", but 239 pounds with a 7'2" wingspan. Supposedly his ankle was bothering him.

Also liked the little I saw of the 6'10" Delia kid from Argentina. Ended up with 7 boards in 12 minutes.

You could see the international kids had some poise from already having pro experience, I think.

I only watched parts of the game.
