Morning Look: Arenas at Summer League
Loyal (occasional) reader Unsilent Majority sends along this gallery of NBA Summer League photos, which includes a crowd shot during a Wiz game. Looks like some Arenas fans made the trip. No Arenas, though.
Also, if there's a shot that better captures the zeitgeist of NBA Summer League than some skinny white dude in a Muresan jersey waiting to buy nachos, I'd like to see it.

No Duckworths?
Shocked isn't strong enough a word.

Lemme guess - these are the winners of the "Everyone's Got Something" video contest from www.gilsarena.com...

That is the great untold story of summer league. I went to Vegas with that skinny white dude and others. Joey Dorsey was infuriated by their taunts and threatened them throughout the game. That's why he was ejected and that's why the Bullets won the game.
At the 29 sec mark you can hear them clapping and chanting "anger management" at Dorsey.

assist- I thought you could only have that much fun at an actual game. Summer League was amazing, next year can't come soon enough.

Of course it helps when you arrive at the arena after drinking gin and tonics at the poker table all morning.

The man pictured in the Muresan jersey was the one who drove Joey Dorsey so nuts that he eventually got himself ejected on the bench.
