    Maybe not. But I am sure he can give him some advice on how to shoot craps!

    Did I say shooting the 3 ball? I meant, snorting the 8 ball.

    IIRC the NBDL streams these games for free.

    Babbitt makes a jumper but Dakota is ahead. Time out.

    Almost all seats are empty. Players don't clog the middle in this league.

    Armon Johnson, on buddy Luke Babbitt going to the D-League: "I'm already missing him, man. I missed him when we came in this morning."

    Babbitt and Luke Jackson in! Antoine Walker not in, I think. Dakota still up. This is the game thread--anyone else watching?

    Walker takes the rebound from teammate Jackson. Luke to the FT line. Babbitt active.

    I'm watching. Funny seeing Babbitt in there with Jackson because people compared Babbitt to Jackson. Jackson looks like he has trouble walking. Walker is in too.

    Babbitt leads his team with 9, but his team is down 8. Antoine Walker makes a scoop shot showing his 3-time all-star experience.

    Seth Tarver from Jesuit High and Oregon State in, Babbitt out with 3 fouls. 3rd foul was going for a rebound.

    You became a moderator? I missed it! Apparently the new guys just added today (Babbitt and Walker) are alternating with the guys already on the team. Babbitt sits down with 3 fouls. This game is on radio in Idaho. I'm surprised at the coverage for the D-League.

    Did the commentator just say they changed the goaltending rule? He said you can knock it out of the cylinder now. Is the NBA testing that out in the D-League?

    I'm a moderator of the Tennessee Titans forum, which has no activity at all. Yeah I never knew they covered D-league games like this.

    I'm getting a beautiful picture (far better than atdhe) but it keeps freezing on me. So I got off the board a few minutes to help. Halftime now, we're 7 down. Antoine shot an airball on one of his free throws at the end there.

    I seem to remember that Stern compromised with Europe and said this league would use their rule on the cylinder this year. It was in respect for them replacing the trapezoid with the rectangle for the painted area.

    Maybe my computer can do only one activity at a time. I hope Antoine plays one year in the NBA. That would get him out of debt, the one million he owes the casinos.

    It's looked great for me.

    I also hope Walker plays another year or two in the NBA. He may just be doing it cause he has no other options, but he's played in Puerto Rico and now Boise... that's dedication.

    Salime Stoudamire not playing in this game for the Stampede. These guys aren't exactly great shooters. Luke Jackson played in the previous game and he's an integral part of the team. You can tell how he's playing. Flagrant called on Jackson. Play by play and boxscore:
