As of 6/29 NBATV will televise ONLINE about 75 Vegas and Orlando summer league games for a one time fee of $14.95. Check out following link for updated info.

At Las Vegas summer league there are 22 teams playing 5-6 games each over a 10-day period so NBATV may not televise all games.

For the computer challenged like me how can I tell or test whether me and my computer can receive/view the game videos as offered for the Las Vegas NBA summer league? Without first paying the $14.95. I do watch the YouTube videos of the Kings tryouts. Is that the same thing? Thanks.
 
Dionte Christmas I remember him from last years draft I thought he got drafted somewhere and stuck I guess not. Does anybody think he'd fit at the 2guard here?
 
The Sixers picked up Christmas but let him go after a few weeks. I remember a news story where he was stopped for bad driving and the cop found a loaded handgun under the front seat. It was Speights' car and gun though. Looks like he played in Israel last year.

Lee Cummard is a great shooter but I don't know if we really need another SF.
 
I knew Rices name looked familiar he can def play we have a nice looking summer league team this year it'll be interesting seeing if any of the guards can crack the squad I definately think Rice and Landesburg can. It's also a shame Christmas is a knucklehead in training, hopefully he can get his act together because he can ball with the best of them.
 
kings summer league roster....

I just saw the kings summer league roster on the kings blog q and a on sacbee.com and noticed that tyreke is not on the roster and not playing summer league this year.
 
He's already involved with Team USA. He probably could technically do both but I believe SL and the USA training camp are essentially back to back, so that would be extracurricular overload.
 
Ya I tweeted jason jones why is tyreke not playing summer league? And he said because he is preparing for team usa and that he is established enough in the league to be able to skip it.
He said summer league is for rookies and 2nd and 3rd year players that got very few minutes and players coming off injury seasons.
 
I've got no problem with Reke skipping summer league as long as he's working on ball and not sitting around eating twix bars.
 
Apparently I watch too much NBATV... my fiancé is going to call of the wedding if she has to hear about Lebron, DMC, and if Gilbert Arenas and John Wall can coexist. Crap I just realized I'm watching it right now, ruh roh!

I really hope the games are televised, would love to see some Donte Greene and DMC action.
 
Tyreke will practice with the summer league team to start to get familiar with the new guys but won't play in games as he is prepping for Team USA tryout just after summer league.
 
I was going to order that league pass for the summer league but then i read the quality isn't too good and its a buffer fest!

anybody use league pass during the season? Is it smooth?
 
Tyreke was tweeting yesterday that he was working out etc etc thats basically all he ever says... and if you add that to his comments about people not taking it serious enough i think we really dont need to worry about reke's work ethic.

i think he is deadly serious.
 
They are supposed to broadcast 4 Kings summer league games on NBATV, according to Grant Napear. (Sportsline yesterday)

Here's the schedule and asterisked games will be on NBATV:

http://www.nba.com/news/features/2010.summer.league.schedule/

It looks like only games from the Cox Pavilion will be broadcast and none of the games from the Thomas and Mack Center. (Which means the Kings/Lakers and Kings/Bulls games won't be on NBATV.)

But according to that schedule all 6 Kings games will be on NBATV ! ?

In any case the argument to make the trip to Las Vegas is that all games in Cox Pavilion have great seats for everyone, close to the action and up-close NBA (almost) ball.

Sorry, I should have been clearer. That is the schedule of all games, but only the ones with the asterisk will be televised on NBATV.
