Miami's backup backup center Earl Barron put up 33 points and 15 boards for Miami’s summer league team!

oo nga..

Barron helped Memphis win the 2002 NIT title, then played in the NBA's Development League and overseas in Turkey and the Philippines before catching Miami's eye last summer -- after averaging 17.4 points on 65.2 percent shooting in seven July exhibitions against other rookies and young players.

"Foye has been unguardable, using his ridiculous strength to get past anyone who attempts to stop him. He's explosive and gets to the rim at ease and looks like he'll be a big-time scorer for the Minnesota Timberwolves.

As for Rondo, he plays like a veteran. He's running the Boston Celtics' summer team with confidence, and he's distributing the ball. Boston will like him, but the question is, will he play ahead of Sebastian Telfair? The Celtics will regret for years that they didn't keep either Roy or Foye as the No. 7 pick instead of trading it for Telfair. The rumor was that Danny Ainge made the move because he thought he had a deal for Allen Iverson. If that trade never materializes, Ainge will have two small point guards in Telfair and Rondo, but not enough time for both of them to play.Foye has been unguardable, using his ridiculous strength to get past anyone who attempts to stop him.
