On two occasions in the first half, this lead directly to a turnover, and then fans screaming, “you’re not a point Blatche!” As far as potential goes though, the sky is the limit if he can put everything together. Very few players in the summer league can boast his height combined with his ball handling, speed, athleticism, and shooting. He is still a streaky shooter, but his only made field goes of the day were all NBA three pointers, showing he does posses the range. More than anything he needs to work on his decision making. There were those aforementioned turnovers when he was trying to do too much, and then him challenging Aldridge for that dunk, and paying for it.
Peter John Ramos
In a matter of two hours, the fans at Vegas were treated to three of the largest centers in the world. Pavel Podkolzine in the Dallas game, and Ha Seung Jin/PJ Ramos in this game. Ramos continues to improve his coordination, and low post game, and hit almost all of his shots (5/6). The biggest holes in his game today were 1. Rebounding. When you’re the largest guy on the court by 5 inches, you need to be able to grab more than 3 rebounds in 30 minutes. And 2. Turnovers. He continuously got ripped and had a couple of bad passes to the tune of 5 turnovers at our count. He would be best served with another year of the NBDL if eligible. He does not get as tired as Pavel, he’s more coordinated than Ha, but still has a ways to go to be NBA ready.
Oleksiy Pecherov
Oleksiy might have been the second leading scorer for the Wizards today, but he was by no means efficient. His shot was way off today, (3/12), and included an air ball three pointer, and an air ball seven footer in the lane. The positives for him was, despite the missed shots, he never turned the ball over, and was the only one on the Wizards going after the rebounds it seemed. His form on his shot looks good, as was mentioned his high arching shot coupled with his good size makes it very difficult to block. But they just weren’t falling for him today.
