They are referring it as major but could this be the "medium" announcement that Morey was hinting at? http://www.nba.com/dleague/riograndevalley/presseradvisory080509.html
We talking about NBADL team here. Jermaine Taylor is probably considered a SPLASH with Size 7 Font when we talk about the Vipers.
I hope the major announcement isn't simply that the Rockets will be controlling the basketball operations of the Vipers. This was known over a month ago.
LOL.. so this is the much hyped "medium" decision Morey was on about all week and us discussing it all week long too? Dleague??!!!!!
Former Virginia & Depaul coach Dave Leitao is a leading candidate to become the head coach of the Rio Grande Vipers. http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=aw-leitaonbadl073109&prov=yhoo&type=lgns
This actually happened a while back...I guess this is just the official "press conference" style announcement. Morey also didn't break it via twitter...so it can't be the "medium" news.
They are hiring JVG to be the new coach. Who better to inspire and give rookies playing time. They are just waiting on DD to give his approval
