I hope we put him in the D League so he can possibly get some NBA 'burn' at times and it should help get him used to little details like "English" and "Jive" and fried foods, etc, etc, etc.

He looks pretty 'ready to go' if you ask me, I mean we aren't looking for Oscar Robertson we are looking for a raw freaky (or perhpas freakishly raw) Theo Ratliff type project.

Re: Samb & Acker tracker
I'd rather have a raw guy with potential at the end of the bench than Dupree (as much as I like him).

I concur.

I know I'm treading into Dark(o) territory here, but even having him practice against our legit and versatile bigs in practice wouldn't be all bad for him.

Thinking Sheed (I hope we keep him unless we get an insane deal) could LEARN HIM a thing or two (hundred).

This is all good. But I agree with TaShawn - the guy needs to play.

Yep. Splitting the year between the Stones and Sioux Falls wouldn't be all bad.

What better guy than Sheed to teach him how to utilize uber long arms and an apparently soft jumper?

Re: Samb & Acker tracker
Dumars cites group failure

Quote:
Dumars said that Cheick Samb , whom they acquired for Maurice Evans on draft day last season, is expected to play for the team's summer-league team in Las Vegas in July. Alex Acker , though, who played in Greece last year, may not play due to the length and grind of his EuroLeague season.

Re: Samb & Acker tracker
It's rare for a player to play more than 2 seasons in the NBDL. Usually by that time they are established, or on their way out of the league.

Since Acker is technically under contract to a Greek team, they may not want their star guard playing in a scrimmage league.
