    What? Fans like Championships? I need additional proof before I can agree with this wild assertion.

    Whatever...we are the best somewhere finally. This is definitely the biggest achievement since last century. Toyota center can hang one more banner now.

    1) All of the D-league team jerseys reflect their NBA counterpart.
    2) No D-league teams have good interior defense, it's the D-league.
    3) True.

    Mike Harris=Hired Gunner! I love how Morey sends him back to the D-League just in time so he could play in the playoffs. Morey really wanted that Championship!

    Great finish. Championship buzzer beaters are happening around the world.

    With just .6 seconds left on the clock in a NLB League final game, the Croatian basketball team nailed a 3-pointer and cinched a narrow victory. Naturally, celebration ensued. That is until Serbia, with just .5 seconds left, threw up a miracle half court shot and took the game right back.

    I would love to see the Rockets do that in Utah.

    The crowd seemed into it. 6200 people. For those of you who never lived in small towns, this is about as big as it gets when it comes to basketball. Having a somewhat meaningful game in your home stadium and cheering for your team in your city.

    This is really good for the small towns. And of course we have seen how the D League can help develop players for us. If it can develop a player every year or two, then I'd say that a good return on investment
