Oh ouch! You really showed Joey Dorsey didn't you? All his life he's tried to build his game around his explosive scoring abilities, and you've just shot him down altogether Chuck Hayes would be 46th in the DLeague in scoring Einstein... How does Joey go in the rebounding and shot-blocking departments?
Joey Dorsey is Dwight Howard compared to Donte Greene... He's second in the DLeague in rpg AND rpg/40minutes. He's second in FG% And he's 13th in bpg Only 2 players have more double doubles than him, and he ranks 8th overall in efficiency. He's playing really well in the D-League. Don't let your hate blind you to that. How well that transfers to the NBA I've no idea - my prediction is 'not well'. D-League is a bit of a joke, they need to let players with more than 2 years NBA experience play there - would see a bit more competition and would actually DEVELOP the younger guys as they come up against some old heads who know a few of the tricks.
It needs to be a minor league like in baseball. There should be some guys in there with NBA experience to help them run the NBA team's offense and defense.
Absolutely. And guys who are 10th men + would actually get a chance to play some ball and PERHAPS find some rythm. Imagine throwing a lifeline to an 'end of bench' kind of guy and giving him some consistent playing time to show what he's got. It could give players a way of breaking into rotation - since they'd actually be playing against NBA caliber competition. And if an injury occurred, you could simply recall your DLeague player and have some confidence that the guy has been showing some sort of form.
