Didn't see this posted anywhere but Adonis saw his first NBA action against the Heat yesterday. Played 5 minutes and scored 2 points. I was as critical of anyone on his lack of aggression and really never thought he'd get it figured out. He dominated the d league and earned this chance, good on him. Love being wrong sometimes and hopefully he makes me really wrong by playing well. Magic have another game with the Sixers tonight so maybe he plays again.

I hope he's making the most of this opportunity. I'm rooting for him.

Proud for Adonis. Given the right fit, maybe he will stick in the nba.

Knock 'em dead Adonis!

Elliot Williams has been getting PT for the Sixers.
Tyreke played 39-something for the Pelicans yesterday.
CDR hasn't played since 2/21, hopefully he gets in tonight against the Thunder.
Will got a little PT yesterday, scored 7 I think it was.

Adonis got 9 minutes today. 1/5 from the field, 3 points, 2 rebounds, 1 assist

Edit: Forgot he played against Elliot, who got 13 minutes.

Adonis will be a baller, give him some time, same with Geron-

If Adonis would have put on the work on the court, he wouldn't be begging for playing time in the NBA... I still can't believe this dude had an unremarkable college career!.

How long has CDR been there? Hopefully he gets signed for the whole year. After two days they either have to sign him or release him correct?

CDR already has been signed for the rest of the year. He joined the Bobcats in early Jan, I think. Maybe late Dec.

Great. It's good to see him stick. I think Charlotte comes here soon. May go see him play the Grizz.

I saw where Chris got 6 stitches above his eye in the game on 2/21. Hopefully that's why he hasn't been playing. He played 3 min last night vs. Thunder, scored 3. Has played 9 min vs. Heat tonight, scored 9.

When we played Charlotte a week or so ago, they showed CDR for a second and his eye was basically swollen shut. So, yeah, he wasn't playing because of that. He'll probably get some run when Charlotte comes here on Saturday.
