Brooks and Nick each with double doubles in their latest summer league games. 12 and 11 for Brooks and 12 and 10 for Nick. Nice production from our guys, though both in losing efforts.
Double double doubles
- Thread starter TheC
- Start date
Nick worked pretty hard on D last night, missed some bunnies and easy putbacks, and his pass recipients failed to make the easy buckets as well. The refs seriously swallowed their whistles in the first quarter as the Lakers mugged the absolute crap of the Clippers. It's hard to score or even dribble when a guy has hold of both your arms and pulls you backwards...
The OKC team seems legit terrible. Aday is definitely a long term project and currently looks like a first round bust to me. Early days, but if OKC wants a guy who can score 10 points and 9 or 10 rebounds a game in about 20 minutes, they already have Brooks.

Martinelli is proving his worth. 8-9 shooting and 3-3 on 3's last night in his first start. I don't hate the Clippers anymore. 
Yeah, the NBA teams have benched their stud draft picks, so Nick's playing against G League competition. He also had 5 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, zero turnovers - and of course was never fouled.
I suspect Brooks will kill it tonight for similar reasons.

The only "channel" I have access to for these games is Prime, and I've been pretty lucky with Clippers/Bulls/Thunder games. Right now, I'm watching Sanjay's Hawks gets roasted by the Grizzlies :-(
Yeah, Brooks went :
| 29 mins | 21 points | 8-16 | 1-1 from three | 2-5 | 12 rebounds | 5 assists | 2 TOs | 1 Steals | 1 Blocks |
Boo had 19 minutes and 12 points, and he went 5/5 on free throws and 0/5 from three. Two rebounds, three assists, and a steal.
Man that Bulls team is really really bad, even with Wilson.
edit: ESPN has the Bulls and the Clippers tomorrow, and I think that's it for NU players. The Summer League playoffs start on Saturday, but our guys all have at least two losses, so they're pretty much out of contention. I think.

Nick had another hyper efficient night as the Clippers pissed away a great lead in the fourth quarter, but won in overtime. Trey Kaufman Renn came off the bench for Minn. and seems to be good enough for the G league. I'm not sure he's a two way contract kid yet.
Nick's numbers...

My prediction is that Nick Martinelli will be a solid role player and get 15 minutes a game in next 2 years
He doesn't move like anyone else I have ever seen. His unconventional movement has to make him hard to guard.
I never hated the Clippers… or any pro NBA team. But now I have a reason to cheer for them.Martinelli is proving his worth. 8-9 shooting and 3-3 on 3's last night in his first start. I don't hate the Clippers anymore.
The Thunder too.
It’d be pretty sweet to see a Cat get an NBA ring. We have plenty of football players who won super bowl rings… but none with the NBA “chip” as the kids say.
