    Cool to see a former-Duck to be doing well after not hearing about him for a while (I'd post the same if he were a former-Beaver, calm down).

    This puts Patty's stats into perspective.

    It's a little odd to me, how you can DOMINATE the D-league and struggle to be a 15th man on an NBA team. I guess it just illustrates the total lack of talent overall in the Dleague.

    It's not a total lack of talent, it's a total lack of defense. Look at the scores for some of the games. It's obvious nobody plays any D and they are all just trying to score as many points as possible to get noticed by an NBA team looking for a call-up.

    Also cool to see former Blazer Anthony Tolliver post back to back double doubles for the W's..

    Not suprising given the Warriors play a similar style to the D-League - lots of scoring and no defense. Probably a much easier adjustment going from the D-League to the Warriors than to a slow paced, grind it out team like the Blazers.
