About rookies like Russell Westbrook, Jerryd Bayless, Anthony Randolph, Jason Thompson and Kevin Love, in a review of everyone's summer performances . Thorpe's so-so on some of the other big names. For instance, here is Thorpe on O.J. Mayo: I don't see a lot of upside with him, but I don't see much of a downside either.

Sitting in the stands before the Suns / Wizards end the Summer League and low and behold the most amazing thing happened during the Knicks / T-Wolves games. No, the Knicks aren't playing any defense (they are down 75 to 55 in the 3rd and that's with Kevin Love out w/ a rolled ankle). No, its better then that.

If I'm reading this press release correctly, Kevin Love is headed to Las Vegas to help the U.S. Men's Olympic basketball team train for the games in Beijing, China.

Other Pac 10 players on the Select Team include Robin Lopez, O.J. Mayo and Andre Iguodala....
