Cavs Jonathan Givony Shannon Brown Brown looks good so far, as you would expect from a player who is that athletic and works so hard in a setting like this. Brown showed off his explosiveness early and often by coming up with a great block on the perimeter and then an extremely creative layup after jumping from outside the paint after leading the break. In the half-court Brown was a little bit more quiet, not really creating his own shot and being brought more off screens. He's obviously much better in transition. We歓l see how his point guard skills look later on in the summer league. Brown got some burn at the point in the 2nd half, and the results weren't急 pretty at all. His ball-handling has quite a ways to go as we saw when he foolishly tried to dribble the ball right in front of Nate Robinson , and his court vision looked very average when he put the ball on the floor and got going. Brown's outside shot stopped falling as well, which meant that there really wasn't any way for him to contribute when you consider the fact that he could never stay in front of Nate Robinson even if his life depended on it. Martynas Andriuskevicius Andriuskevicius looks much better than he did last year, even though he is still as skinny as ever. He was pretty active on the court, hustling a bit for rebounds, grabbing one right over the top of David Lee off a free throw, and even coming up with one really nice block on Channing Frye Marty didn't do much in the 2nd half to back up the praise he received in the 1st. His work on the glass was especially poor and he was regularly outmuscled and outhustled. Sharrod Ford Ford might have been the best player on the Cavs team in the first half, looking much improved after a season in the NBDL and Germany. Ford's footwork in the post looks particularly good, and he used it to release and hit a couple of nice jump-hooks. Ford was very active every minute he was on the court, and this translated into a number of rebounds, free-throws, deflections and put-backs. Whether he is an NBA player remains to be seen, but he does look very good here so far. Ford continued his dominance in the 2nd half and helped himself tremendously with the game he had. His activity level was there throughout, whether it was crashing the offensive glass like a monster, coming up with blocks and steals, directing traffic on team defense or just hounding his man all around the floor. When stepping out to the perimeter Ford looked a bit more limited, which is where the concerns about his NBA upside begin when you consider that he is 6-9 and very thin. He does have a really quick first step, so polishing his ball-handling skills and showing better awareness around the basket will help Daniel Gibson Gibson is playing the point and is looking as uncomfortable at the position as he did at Texas. When allowed to play off the ball his perimeter shot really got going and he knocked down 18-20 footers at ease both with his feet set and off the dribble. Sasha Pavlovic Pavlovic looks like one of these NBA veterans who doesn't really want to be here, but knows that his career is in jeopardy so he may as well come and make the most of it. That translates into a field goal attempt every time he touches the ball, and so far, his touch has been pretty good from mid-range and behind the arc. He put the ball on the floor and went to the basket as well, and got to the free throw line for his trouble. Pavlovic continued to shoot first and ask questions later in the 2nd half, knocking down some jump-shots coming off screens and missing a few others. All in all this was a good game for him, but the question is how will he play when he isn't the man and can't jack up 20 shots per game to get himself going. --
