Seems to be a player-team development vs level of competition debate between college and and G League, respectively. Here’s an idea, both leagues suck.

All good things can't last forever. As a native San Antonian and lifelong Spurs fan, I feel blessed to have been able to witness Timmy's career from start to finish (along with everybody else) There was joy, there was heartbreak....but we still got to experience once of the best runs of...

Man, this thread sucks :(. I wish one never had to be made. Still as legendary as ever to me, but it seems like a lot of people have already forgotten about him. I've never enjoyed the NBA as much since TD retired and to a slightly lesser extent Manu. Two legends that gave it their all.

I wasn't so much talking about the G League that about your affirmation that College "is much tougher, far more competitive, much better coaches, teams will actually gameplan against you" which is simply not true... The level of College BB is terrible, wich isn't hard to understand since most of...

Yup, that may be the Mavs only realistic card to shake things over. Right now they're in a 3 way tie for 11th at 36 games each, while they owe the Knicks a top 10 protected '23 pick. This would give them a 7.2% chance of keeping the pick (jumping to top 4), and a 1.5% chance at Wemby. However, 9th...

> crap finishing

The Whale 7/10 Brendan Fraser is an underrated actor. Movie is so so and nothing that you haven't seen before but his acting is top notch.

Damn getting a lot of DAL pulling up into the top 5 on draft order sims now. Wonder if Cubes Pubes will make a sizable donation to the Silver Foundation charity this offseason for a worthy cause. Bout the only way the Mavs can add any players they are broke with limited plus assets.

Just a gut feeling after considering how much of the team played in the WBC. Doesn't help that right out of the gate half their pitching staff will be on IR.

It should have been way worse Big African missed 8 shots that should have gone Dude needs to eat not fast

Ur right 4 was the bow to the neck

That was the 3rd Foul and I agree. The 4th was push off while being entangled with a rebounder, away from the ball.

Dude was foolish barreling through the other dude Good call Circumstance should not matter

Watching recording. Timme committed 3rd & 4th fouls early in the 2nd Half. He sat with the Zags down 10. Then the doors were blown off. I thought the 4th Foul was a lil soft given the circumstances.

:wow What makes you say that?

There's 352 NCAA men's division 1 teams. Also, some future NBA players play in the lower divisions as well... Players who end up in the G-league are typically college seniors (or have even more experience). The average NCAA team has less than 1 player who could make the G-League when he's...

Yeah pre-tourney I had him early 20s but these past few games have massively elevated his value and brand. Don't see him lasting out of the teens now and would not be surprised with a lottery pick granted back end of it.

Calling it now: the Padres aren't making the playoffs. Team is going to be decimated by injuries this year.

The gleague is a step up from college basketball. It's the minor league for the NBA. A record 47 percent of players on NBA start-of-season rosters for 2022-23 had NBA G League experience. No way college sends that % to the NBA.

Yeah, you guys keep missing the entire point, which is kind of hilarious. Anyway, I can guarantee you that Scoot and the Thompson bros will need at least two years to even start getting how to play NBA team basketball. Every single guy who has come thru OTE or G-League straight outta high school...

Yeah except he wouldn’t be, probably doesn’t even get drafted :lmao Sandro Mamukelashvili and Charles Bassey played in G league this year and would destroy Timme lmao

College basketball is horrible and massively overrated. 90% of this kids won't even turn professional. I was better than some of them on the floor (barely kidding). There's not one tournament game I've watched so far that remotely looked like BB. Fucked up rotations, teammates colliding all the...

lol Gonzaga

Hawkins is projected to go late lottery to early 20s... we might be able to climb up into the mid 20s from our top 2nd rounder, but even then I think he's out of reach with our current picks.

There’s 29 gleague teams, and there are maybe that many players, not on 2 ways or NBA assignees, who might get a call up or a 10 day. Drew Timme would instantly be the best gleague player, were he to sign a contract at the beginning of next season.

Nobody is disputing that lmao the spurs for years have sent their rookies to the g-league because you know what it’s GOOD COMPETITION FOR THEM! and right now you could say the current spurs play the right way, they share the ball, no selfishness, but guess what!?! You need highly talented guys that...

Thanks for bringing this guy up. He might be my Jalen Williams/ Franz/ Giddey type pick this year from initial impression. Guy moves like a good NBA player. Will have to watch some more. Obviously not a candidate for our top pick.

I don't get why people don't understand that basketball isn't just two guys playing one-on-one. Guys running up and down the court working on their skills and not caring about the score isn't helping a young player. This is so evident, it's not even debateable. But the ESPN crew and NBA wants...
