We need a D league affiliate again and hopefully use it to get those guys some playing time

The org doesn't seem to be a big proponent of the NBADL. They don't let their guys spend much time there.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Booo...I wanted Meyers to sign my Jersey!

He'll still be there, just not playing.

 

[Sinobas]

So, you're aware of said injury...?

I have seen no mention of it and I'm not the only member that appears unaware. Did you peak through the mini-blinds?

No, but he's injured, and you didn't know about it. So you did in fact miss the news of his injury.

Probably because they have proof that their coach and training staff can develop talent in practice better than the coaches can in the NBADL.

Just being in the same room as Dame and Stotts is more effective than actually playing with the Idaho Stampede.

Exactly.

I only missed it if it's been publicly released. Can't swing-and-miss miss the pitch that hasn't been tossed.

The Stampede don't even exist anymore

The Stampede don't even exist anymore

Even so we still can use the DL.

"I'm a basketball player," he said. "I don't sign up to get catered to, to sit out this game and get some rest. I rest when I go home. We get a whole summer to rest. When we get here, it's time to play."

It would be really interesting to see what would happen if Lillard played for Popovich.

Hilarious.

Unrelated to this, but kinda..... I tried to listen to Shelbot the other day. Can't do it. I hate that show.

At least you tried.

 

[Natebishop3]

At least you tried.

When I tuned in they were talking about something unrelated to sports..... which sucks. That was one thing that I really loved about Bunker & Danforth. I feel like every sports radio guy spends a large portion of time talking about non-sports related topics. It just makes me change the channel.

At around the 47 minute mark, they talked about a "big lineup." I don't see it, but I do see a "Long Lineup" as being something that is very possible and attractive:
ET/Crabbe/Harkless/Aminu/Davis

Coach Yells "Switch EVERYTHING!"

Damn, now I want to see that!

 

[Nate]

That could be the best defensive lineup in the league. Even if you swap Davis and Vonleh.

This is the best defensive lineup from another team I can think of.

Marcus smart
Avery Bradley
Jae crowder
Amir Johnson
Al horford

Or Atlanta... After looking at their roster, they might be really good this year.

Dennis Schroeder
Kent bazemore
Thabo sefolosha
Paul millsap
Dwight Howard
