The G-League path is either not developing players properly, or flawed players go there because the lack of national exposure keeps their draft prospects stable. It was a valiant attempt by the NBA to bypass college sports, but they need to return to the drawing board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The structure of that league is basically YMCA basketball. I'm pretty sure the G League Ignite program is done with the introduction of NIL in college ball now. Overtime Elite is probably a better developmental program but I'm not sure if that's even going on anymore either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He almost fooled the world into thinking Grimes was a star lol Idk man. I'll give you the 1st three but the latter 4 were all good elsewhere and got bigger roles in New York. I can't give credit to Thibs for Brunson not playing next to Luka anymore and getting a chance to run the show. Randle was very good in New Orleans too.

I was just having a conversation about this recently given Scoot having a **** year and all my friends here are Blazer fans. Like the Blazers just got a g-league team this season. It's just fundamentally insignificant to the league as a whole. I don't even truly understand overtime elite. Is it like AAU? Can you stay in past 18? As football future's biggest NBL fan, I am rooting for Alex Sarr to be the greatest french player of all time.

seminoles1 Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 Toni Kukoc proving once and for all why you can't just listen to old timers and their opinions about basketball. Jokic isn't as good as Vlade Divac or Dino Radja, guys. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thibs has him occasionally resembling a good player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11sanchez11 Posted April 2 Author Share Posted April 2 Booker has made 5 3s in the first 10 minutes. His career high is 6, which he has done like 25x. If he is ever going to do it, now is the time lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
