            Hack maybe they are looking for someone -- anyone -- to pass the ball? :)

              Spurs lead Lakers 43-35 at half. Kwahi Leonard has 18 for the Spurs.

              Toure played 12 minutes. 2 points, 1-6 from the field, 2 fouls, and a turnover.

                His one basket was a layup. Most of his misses were wide open mid-range jump shots. If he wants to move on to the next level, he's going to have to make those shots.

                  No he doesn't. He has to play rock solid shut down defense on above average or near superstars and not hurt the Lakers on the other end.

                  It doesn't hurt if he can hit that shot, but that's not why he would make any team.

                    He hasn't played the shut down defense yet either. There have been glimpses, but not anything consistent. He should improve though with more playing time.

                      Doc, that doesn't make sense. You're right about playing shut down defense: that's key, especially if you're trying to make a quality team. But if he can't make a mid-range jumper with some consistency, he IS hurting his team on the other end. NBA teams don't want to play 4-on-5 when they have the ball.

                        NBA teams often play 3 on 5. :)

                          Good experience for Murry. Doesn't really have a position that he excells in to make a NBA roster. Needs to go overseas and hone his game.

                            I love your name Mr. Obvious. No matter how I respond to anything you say, it will always sound like a sarcastic insult. Well played, my friend.

                            Well said MR. OBVIOUS! haha

                            For the record, I think I agree. Maybe someday, guys playing overseas will be more accessible via the internet. I wish I could watch guys play still once they go down that road.

                                News circulating that Toure's d-league contract is trying to be bought by Panathinaikos of Greece.
