    That is exactly what the NBA D league is for, and the dark ones know Thabeet needs it badly. That guy should never have been drafted in the first round.

    No you broke it. I meant to say first round. As in first round of the draft.

    Despite their recent run of success, Memphis is still a pretty screwy franchise.

    You know who will never be sent to the DLeague? The 21 guys drafted after Thabeet.

    I am actually still shocked that with their success they were shopping both Conley and Mayo before the deadline.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'm terribly unsurprised by this development. Memphis way over-drafted for size and now likely has an inferior talent on their hands. Who knew?

    I think they would have been better off hiding him and trading him than sending him to the D league.

    I'm probably in the WAY minority here, but I'd love to see him in a Blazer uniform. If Webster isn't going to get more than 12 mpg the rest of the way (or the rest of his Portland contract?), I think 7'3" of emergency big man > 12 mpg of one of my favorite players.

    That said, I might rather jettison Rudy and have Webster backup the 2 and 3 for around 20 mpg.

    They can't "hide him." If they stop playing their top-three draft pick after his poor play, everyone will know why. Or they'll assume injury that Memphis is attempting to hide. Nobody's going to trade anything of value for him at that point.

    You can when you have Marc Gasol. It provides a perfectly adequate reason for him not to play, much, if at all.
