Alonzo Gee = good. View full size photo » Utah Flash 85, LA D-Fenders 84 Dontell Jefferson may have made a fadeaway with two seconds left in the game, but this one was really won at the free-throw line. The Flash went 21-22 from the charity stripe, which is excellent, particularly at the D-League level when so many guys shoot 60-70 percent. Like, say, the D-Fenders, who made just two-thirds of...

Where is Nevill, he isn't on the roster anymore if you look at the Flash's site!??

Dontell Jefferson and the Flash head to L.A. tonight. View full size photo » Three of tonight's competitors are directly affiliated with an NBA team, while the fourth (Utah) probably has more of a connection with the NBA than the D-Fenders. Of course, there's only one NBA player on assignment between all of them, but a lot of these players have either received NBA call-ups in the past or spent...

Chris Hunter is one of only a few of last season's D-League leaders coming back to the league. View full size photo » I've made a few oblique references this offseason to all of the D-League three-point shooters who will be playing overseas this year, and it's true that there will be some unfamiliar faces jacking up perimeter shots next month. But it's actually even more remarkable than I thought....

The Charlotte Bobcats have waived combo guard Dontell Jefferson, trimming the roster to 15. Jefferson had an unguaranteed contract for this season, so the Bobcats don't owe him anything going forward. Notice that the Bobcats haven't waived undrafted rookie Antonio...

ESPN reports Ronald "Flip" Murray to sign $1.99M deal with the Charlotte Bobcats. My reaction: Cool. The Bobcats now have a quality backup guard who can kind of play both spots. Flip is known for scoring but has averaged passable assists depending on where he was and what he was called on for. I imagine this pushes Gerald Henderson down the depth chart a bit, as Larry Brown is notoriously...

With Allen Iverson looking unlikely to become a Bobcat, I felt a twinge of disappointment. Replying to Cam Ron on the chat page about the Bobcats lack of activity in free agency furthered my disappointment: The team seems to be standing still as the rest of the league is actively engaged in improving (well, except for the Nets and the Bucks). It drove home the point that the Bobcats are probably set...
