Impressive 2nd Half for Gallanari

Danilo Gallinari's first summer league game showed hints of brilliance that hopefully can translate to real NBA games. Granted the competition consisted of free agents, young players, and Tractor Traylor, Gallinari exhibited shooting, passing, ballhandling, and, most importantly, toughness. He scored 14 points all in the second half on a mixture of put backs and jumpers. The jump shots were both off the pass and the dribble. Furthermore Gallinari brought the ball up several times and initiated the offense, and looked comfortable doing so. The Euro did not seem to back down from anything he was asked to do even though he was thrown around early on by bigger, stronger competition. (Which is not to say he looked weak. More he was learning how to play defense strongly.) All in all the Knick fan should be excited about Gallinari who showed that he has, deep down, what it takes to be a good player in the league.
