    After watching D-League games I don't feel like the competition is better than college ball.

    They have more games to play, tighter schedule. And that makes it more professional than college games.

    Kyle Lowry and Chuck Hayes are just flat out better basketball players.

    Winning rings is what matters. Regular season means squat. I'm looking at you Mike D...

    Morris not fitting in a DLeague system with Dleague players is as meaningful as piss and ****...

    This, and Marcus Morris was the player of the year in a more organized, competitive league, with real defense.

    The Dleague is junior college garbage ball...

    My opinion of the D-League just gets lower and lower with every game I watch. I think Marcus suffers some due to the lack of structure in the D-League games. I honestly think he would be doing better at the NBA level with better point guards (Conroy is absolutely terrible to watch) and more structured team basketball. But whatever he is just basically killing time and staying in shape down there. Hopefully this team can move someone so they can actually get their first round pick on the floor :eek:.

    We need to hurry up and make a trade so we can get him up here to prove the idiotic haters wrong!

    Went to the game and the team was gassed from the night before. The refs must have not gotten a flight out of the RGV because it was the same crew that work the game the night before.

    I hope they do better on Wednesday, it is hard when two of your players have been called up Smith by the Rockets and Uzoh gets signed by the Cavs both were contributing to the teams success.

    I agree. I don't see this as necessary for a player like Morris, but they're not paying me to make these decisions.
