Summer League Game 3 Analysis - a more pleasing effort

I'm not going to post a lot of words here since I only saw about a 3rd of the game. I thought I'd create this thread for folks to comment on the game.

Some things that jumped out at me in this showing (we trounced the Bobcats, fwiw):

The 'starters' (Gaffney, Harangody, Erden, Lafayette & Thompson) all played much better, especially as a team, compared to the first two games. One look down the box score in the +/- column is telling.

Semih Erden looked a TON better than his first game. Maybe he just needed some rest and a chance to get to know his teammates? His +/- was +29, tops in the game, in just over 25 minutes of play.

Janning was a prolific scorer off the bench (20 pts) but while he was in the defense wasn't so good - that wasn't all his fault, but that's why his +/- was a mere +3. H also grabbed 8 rebounds - a very good game for him.

Harangody continues to impress me with his hustle and game smarts.

Here is the box score for those interested:
