Full Version: Theoretical NBDL question
Stupid question here... Could the Bulls send Ty Thomas to the NBDL for the season? If so how would it work? They would retain his rights and pay his salary while not having to keep a spot on the 15 man roster for him, right?
sounds about right... and thats a pretty good idea u got there... Maybe even send him to Europe.. for like 4 years! j/k.
-I say we make him play for half of the season at NBDL... That would help out Luol, Noc, and T2.

I wonder if he could crack double digit points in the D-League.

Green aside, he can't.

That's what I am looking for... Why not? Is it forbidden by the CBA? If so who can and cannot go to the NBDL?

I was adressing the double digit points in the NBDL comment.

Any NBDL experts out there?

Interesting. So theoretcially we could send Thomas to the NBDL for the season, or part of it, and let him work down there instead, while utitilizing our roster to be a little more balanced.
I know it won't happen, but it is really interesting to see that you can draft a young kid, and not have to subject him to the NBA for two years.

Makes sense for being more selective in the 2nd-round...not so much for a top 5 pick...

This could be the route Seattle goes with Sene

Martell Webster and Gerald Green (and another 1st rounder who's name escapesme) both spent a good chunk of the season in the NBDL. Thomas is basically at the same stage of development as those guys. That makes some sense.
It is a great idea. Ideally, he could play the first month for us and if (when) he struggles he could go to the NBDL till after the all star game.
But it will never happen. Pax wouldn't do that.
