NBA Summer League Day Two Recap - The Breakouts
Pounding The Rock —
... Deron Washington - Last year's second round pick had two spectacular dunks off missed shots. Other than those two dunks, he was 2-9 from the field and 4-12 from the line. He's quite the leaper, but his offensive game is not good. I didn't really pay attention to him on the defensive end so I can't say if he has a future. If he does, it's because he can lock guys up. Not because he can score. ...

Patrick Hayes is previewing the Pistons players at MLIVE. His latest preview is DaJuan Summers. Patrick thinks Summers will get a chance to prove himself from the get go and should match up well with the smaller teams of the East like Atlanta, Washington, and Toronto among others.

Pistons Fizzle in Dallas: 113-88

... near the buzzer. From those final possessions, Dallas gained a lot of momentum going into the locker room and it definitely carried over into their big third quarter.
Like any preseason game, I wouldn't get too worked up about this one. Remember that Detroit was without Tayshaun Prince, Ben Wallace, and Charlie Villanueva again. John Kuester also decided to mail it in fairly early, as Jonas Jerebko, DaJuan Summers, Deron Washington, and Chucky Atkins all played the entire fourth ...
Waive Goodbye, Part 2
Ridiculous Upside —
... . (Admit it, that's not the clip you were expecting.) (Also, note to self: when you get older, shave your head but leave the sideburns and add a mustache.) But hey, here's a crazy idea; the Pistons also waived their second round pick Deron Washington, who's a 6'7" small forward. James White is a 6'7" small forward. WHAT IF THEY'RE ABOUT TO SIGN JAMES WHITE? They're probably not, but they should be. While Austin Daye looked really, really good in Summer League, and Jonas Jerebko could be pretty good, it seems a bit ...

While I didn't think that was the case, that's a valid question considering Hamilton is surely the largest trade bait on the team and often times, when a guy is about to be traded, they are mysteriously absent from practice leading up to it. Throw in the fact that the Pistons waived Deron Washington to open up a roster spot (and to ...

... on the perimeter. I'm throwing Korolev into the mix because he has pretty good size (6'9"), still has some athleticism and started his career in Los Angeles (but with the Clippers). Really, the D-Fenders could go in any direction, and it's not even like they're burdened by being directly affiliated with an NBA team.

... division last year. Carroll was a very good three-point shooter in college, and he'll probably get a lot of space to shoot for Iowa between Anderson and Tolliver. Marcus Walker (8) lead his college conference in per-game scoring while at Colorado State. Barnette also shot the ball last year, but in France. Russell Hicks has good size for a center (7'0", 260), but he was an inconsistent rebounder in college.

... , who are nominally point guards but are more scorers than distributor, Ryan Forehan-Kelly, who's a swingman who can do a lot of things but who also probably got accustomed to having the ball last year, Deron Washington, who's another (more efficient) slasher, and Jeremy Wise, a shooting guard. As for big men, let's see...how does Longar Longar strike you? It's entirely possible that Barron asked for this trade, but as it stands now the D-Fenders have a glut of shooting guards and/or backcourt scoring without a ton of guys who can rebound or ...
