Re: Samb & Acker tracker

I went to a CBA game way back when and Manute was playing. During warmups all he did was launch 3's. He even threw a couple up in the game. It was fabulously fun to watch. He had some crazy blocked shots too. Manute was entertainment.

Manute Bol was the original Serbian Gangster.

Plenty of time? Good heavens...four years from now, you most likely will not have any current players playing that are currently on the piston roster. What Samb needs is a solid core of NBA tested warriors giving him one-on-one, one-on-two, twice-a-day workouts. In between those workouts are weights, aerobics and fundamentals on foot-body control, finger-hand dexterity, knowing ref preferences and building facilities, etc. The list goes on.

I guess my point is that if Davidson wanted to leave a legacy toward the game he would start this type of school. He has the money to do it. The D-League is a joke and waste potential talent. The vets of course, love it.

He's just now learning how to play the game... along with his anemic body it very well could take a few years... nobody said Cheick because you're a 54th pick you better be contributing in two years so you can be with our current core.
Hopefully we'll have our own D-league team and he'll receive the necessary development... for now he's nothing more than a 2nd round project.
The beauty of the prospects in the Euro leagues is there isn't a sense of urgency to receive dividends.

Oh yeah, and after he rides the bench for a few years and finally shows he could play, Joe will get rid of him- I heard suggestions like that one before...
