Captain Kangaroo Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Thanks for posting. It looks like a baby version of Bird vs. Wilkins in the '88 playoffs. I wish we saw more of that from Nick when he was @ UA.As a Celtics fan, I'm disappointed to see Sullinger has apparently found the weight he'd shed after his foot injury last season. Quote
LZIp Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 I saw a few familiar faces in that video. I thought our players weren't playing in any summer leagues Quote
morris buttermaker Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Haha .. That looks brutal. Lazy guys kidding themselves that they are getting better.those guys should be embarrassed. Bird Wilkins ?yeah.. Maybe Larry and Dominique's fathers playing pickup. 2 Quote
ZipsBurgh Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Also, this is interesting from the description on the YouTube video:Published on Jun 29, 2015Check out these highlights of Columbus, Ohio native and Boston Celtics forward Jared Sullinger vs Cleveland, Ohio native Nick Harney. Harney posted 41 points in a win over the Columbus Pro AM, while Sullinger scored 38 points respectively.Nick Harney will be playing with the New York Knicks in the Las Vegas Summer League. 1 Quote
ZZZips Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 I wish Tree and Nick well but I am more interested in what our current players are doing this summer. Attached are the only pictures I can find that show any current Akron players participating the the local summer league. Are other players involved? Quote
K92 Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Familiar face on this page, too.Lots of Akron University representation on that page. Quote

I always thought Nick had all of the physical tools. I'll be following. Quote
Dr Z Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 I always thought Nick had all of the physical tools. I'll be following.Agreed. I never thought his skill set fit into the current Zips offense. Summer League Schedule. @NickHarney Quote
Dave in Green Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Agreed. I never thought his skill set fit into the current Zips offense. ...He fit better into the Zips offense than the defense. Quote
LZIp Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 FYI I did some looking around on the internet and couldnt find anything about Harney playing on the Knicks summer league team. Quote
Dave in Green Posted June 30, 2015 Report Posted June 30, 2015 Maybe someone confused Nick with this guy? Quote
Sportsjunkie330 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Is this a joke? Going at it? Put on a show? For real? Quote
K92 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Is this a joke? Going at it? Put on a show? For real?That PA announcer, though. Quote
skip-zip Posted July 2, 2015 Report Posted July 2, 2015 I realize this is a summer league, but Nick shows about as much defensive effort in this video as he displayed during his career at Akron. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted July 7, 2015 Report Posted July 7, 2015 Nick will score 2 in the next game and stay in his seat and sulk during timeouts when he's not in the game. Nick's issue has never been talent, it has been his attitude. No ZIp has EVER frustrated me as much as Nick Harney and my blood pressure welcomed his departure. 1 Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted July 7, 2015 Report Posted July 7, 2015 OK, I watched it against my better judgment. I kept expecting Escalade, The Professor or Hot Sauce to come trotting out at any moment. Quote
LZIp Posted July 7, 2015 Report Posted July 7, 2015 IF there were still anyone holding out hope that Harney was on the Knicks summer league roster:https://twitter.com/NY_KnicksPR/status/618471669250850816/photo/1 Quote
Dave in Green Posted July 15, 2015 Report Posted July 15, 2015 Nick may not be playing for the Knicks, but the MAC player who is playing for the Knicks is making a big impression:Maurice Ndour explodes for 23 points in Knicks OT win Quote
Dave in Green Posted July 17, 2015 Report Posted July 17, 2015 Ndour gets a story in the New York Post:Meet the undrafted rookie who has a shot to stick with Knicks Quote

ZipsBurgh Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 I can't link at the moment, but there was an instagram post from the Cleveland/Akron Pro Am saying Brett McKnight was a top performer. Hadn't seen anything about him in a while. Quote
Hilltopper Posted July 31, 2015 Report Posted July 31, 2015 I can't link at the moment, but there was an instagram post from the Cleveland/Akron Pro Am saying Brett McKnight was a top performer. Hadn't seen anything about him in a while.My neighbor is a referee for C/A PA and tells me that Brett McKnight is indeed tearing up the league. Quote
