NBDL expandable

would be a great move by the league

 

Briliant

its better then wasting talent on the end of the bench

 

I am the one that said that.

I think it should be like Minor league baseball, then all those 18 year olds could really develop.

Good idea. Stick one of those puppies in Austin!
(the one associated with the Rockets- )

 

At least then we could see Boki play.

Really!
I think Austin would be perfect for an NBDL Rocket team... you have a natural market for the Rockets, a city starved for professional sports (see Round Rock Express for proof), and only one possible hangup (a big one!), and that's where they would play. Would the Erwin Center be a plausible option? I wonder...

 

What do you consider the Longhorns?

 

^ collegiate sports

 

That's what we did with Tierre Brown. But we have yet to bring him back.

 

Somehow, I don't think a Dwight Howard would go into the minor leagues anyway.

Neither would a Darko Milicic or Shaun Livingston.


Very few players would actually go there, so what's the point really? Why not just send them to the NBDL?

 

A college team. Besides, I went to the University of Houston.

 

They would go into the minor leagues if they were still getting paid the big contracts, and they would get a chance to develop.

It makes perfect since.......College used to be the NBA's minor league but now players are skipping it or playing only one year and the NBA is suffering from a lack of fundamentals, making the game almost unbearable to watch.
