There are very few if any programs in the country that play inside out first, and feature the offense through the bigman like Gtown does. As we discussed 3-4 years ago Monroe will have a great impact on Gtown recruiting for the next decade. Kids are not dumb, they see how Gtown allows its Bigs to do everything and really develop their games as opposed to other programs that either just have bigs set screens and roll, run to the block and post, or wait for the guard to drive and catch passes around the basket. A lot of programs may talk the talk when they are recruiting a kid, but Gtown is Bigman U for a reason.

I loved how he really struggled in that 2nd half in his first game, but got stronger over the two weeks. His free throws also got better as he worked out the nerves, got his wind, and concentrated. His last two games he averaged 24pts, 10rbs and looked good scoring a variety of ways, while running the floor hard even in the 4th qtr, and still making his great high IQ passes. Now, he needs to spend the next two months working with the Pistons trainer and getting his legs stronger/more explosive for the season. Gotta finish stronger around the basket and post up strong also. He also needs to improve his conditioning. The NBA is a man's league so he will have to bring it everyday these next two months to be ready for training camp. And he has to continue to polish his right hand, along with his jumpshot. BTW. Dajuan looked very good. Finished summer league averaging 16pts 4rbs. Still needs to improve his handles. But he only had one bad game, and bounced back strong after. So that is much better consistency from him. http://www.nba.com/summerleague/games/20100716/DETNYK/gameinfo.html http://www.nba.com/pistons/video/2010/07/15/FearinLasVegasmov-1373920/index.html Edited 1 time by balla Jul 16 10 5:16 PM.

Posts: 1443 Jul 20 10 6:14 PM	http://www.slamonline.com/online/nba/2010/07/summer-league-standouts/ Greg Monroe The No. 7 pick out of Georgetown wasn’t able to put it all together in his first three outings for the Pistons, but in the last two, it was like he just stepped out of a phone booth. The former Georgetown Hoya finished his time in Vegas with a 27-point, 14-rebound performance. The 6-11 center will have minor foot surgery this week, but will be ready for training camp. Look for him to add some offensive prowess to the frontline defense of Ben Wallace.
