Playing in the WCC is far from an ideal way to showcase talent.
Sure, people can see talent there. But they can also see talent in the G-League.

If that was really his thought process, that's some really bad math, man.

2 years older is a drop in the bucket, that's the least of Mika's problems. Most

2 years older is a huge deal. There were comments about his age THIs year.

Is 5 months a huge deal? Is 1 year a huge deal?

Haha The G-league? The fact they are changing the name of the league shows ...

You don't follow the NBA much do you.

I follow it enough to know that d-league players stay in the d-league.
COACHdrn

So you know all about the new two way contracts?

Yup.

Then you know your opinion is very much off.

For the past 6 season, only 30 guys get "called up" from d-league teams...

He'll never have as impactful of a role on something that so many people care

Thats a very limiting statement and short-sited statement.

Okay fine. Maybe he'll become a GA.

Maybe, but it's the truth.
