Last night in the D-League... a Community Building Exercise

by Scott Schroeder on Feb 4, 2025 4:40 AM EST in D-League Game Recaps Comment 11 comments

...Six games happened.

Typically, I'd type you an in-depth recap which would bring two comments, one of which being I should have mentioned Ryan Forehan-Kelly more.

But not today.

I'm no longer recapping games and instead brainstorming on how to build a community like we had last season. You know, a nice happy family that could generate 365 comments on a Tuesday night in April. Look at that, dear readers, and tell me what we need to do to get back to those glorious evenings - How we can stop all the concrete from gettin' p-poured into good land, if you will.

FYI, until I figure this out, expect me to be as belligerent as a notified-a-week-before-fighting-an-overhyped-professional-wrestler Wes Sims.

In case you do come here for recaps, check this out for box scores and what not then tell me what happened last night in the comments.

It can be our first community building exercise.

Alexander Johnson

Alexander Johnson has made a splash in the community by picking up a tech in every game he’s played so far. Is it bad to hope that this could be the next “Victor Page Broom Incident” guy?

Erie vs Iowa

I’m happy for Cedric Jackson and his 2nd 10-day with Cleveland, but not having 2 point guards good enough to play in the D-League is killing Erie. This was the only game I watched so can’t comment on others. From the PxP, Erie had a stretch of about 18 minutes where they turned it over 13 times (only 5 TO in in the other 30 min). Went from up one to down 16 points. Game over. Gansey did not play PG. Tolbert was the back-up PG. Tis Snow played 1:31, but Stinson did not allow him to catch the ball, so he did not run the PG for any possession during his 1:31. ANd Stinson posted him & kicked it our for open jumpers. Hope Maureece Rice can get cleared soon. This started a 5 games in 8 day stretch for Erie, 4 against Iowa. Erie is 0-10 vs Iowa & Maine and 12-7 against the rest of the league. And Iowa now has more talented players, but I don’t think they are playing as well as a TEAM, but the talent overcomes the lesser team play. And Cartier Martin could be back this weekend for Iowa. Hope Iowa is over confident and Erie finds some way to win in the next 3 at Iowa.

Will Conroy probably punched someone.

Just a guess.

I had a dream two nights ago that Will Conroy knocked out my friend.

True story.

Dream or premonition?

Because it’ll probably happen.

Scott, have you heard anything about a possible injury to Dwayne Jones?

I ask because he only played 15 min last night and not at all in the second half (that I could tell). Also, I saw on a Twitter posting that the Toros signed a kid named Luke Bonner from UMass and he’s 7’1". Are these things related? Let me know…
