Antoine Walker

According to Fanhouse.com, Antoine Walker is now clear to play in the NBA Development League, or D-League. He will be playing for the Idaho Stampede. Walker has averaged 17.5 points and 7.7 rebounds for his career so far after being drafted the sixth overall pick of the 1996 NBA Draft. Walker is known for his deadly three-point shooting. He helped the Miami Heat win a title back in the 2005-06 season.

Walker was to join the Charlotte Bobcats, but he showed up too late due to coming to the team’s practice in September. Marc Stein reported for ESPN.com that Walker showed up to the NBA camps in great shape. Walker will be playing with familiar people on the Stampede, teaming up with folks like Luke Jackson, Salim Stoudemire, Dontell Jefferson, Randy Livingston, and Greg Minor.

Walker is 34 years old and was in debt. Huge debt. Walker will be like Antonio Daniels, as both are the oldest players in the D-League. Daniels was the fourth pick of the 1997 NBA Draft. Both are making comebacks to the NBA. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if both do.

Best of luck to all.

The Daily Diop 8-23-09

by Josh Dhani on August 23, 2009

Man I love that picture!

Man I love that picture!

Hey guys, welcome to another edition of The Daily Diop. Let’s go ahead and go to what we are doing, besides looking at Mini Bullets. So let’s get this party started!

A fellow Pacers fan, Jared Wade, has a second-favorite team. His second favorite team, he says, is the New Orleans Hornets. Many others have showed their favorite team to the world, so let’s go ahead and see what others have to say about their favorite team who have websites part of TrueHoop nework. Also, in other news, Shaq and LeBron star in a new soap opera for this year’s NBA season, the 2009-10 season I mean.

When it comes to rookies, there is something very important…a photo shoot. That’s right, you read it, I typed it, that is what it is. But damn man, if you think that’s crazy, why don’t you take a look at Krypto-Nate and his scuffle with the police. Let’s try something crazier, testing postive for cocaine…from a freaking kiss! But here is the craziest, NBA ballers trying to rap. Eh, they are pretty good for their first try. Girls say Mo Williams look sexy in that video. Speaking of NBA ballers and rapping, Jason Richardson is trying to be a DJ while Desmond Mason does not re-sign with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Let’s head over to Layup Drill and see what they have to offer, pretty much nothing for right now. But there is a nice, interesting post about the NBA rookie, but no, there is no photo shoot crap involved, I’m sorry. Yes, I know, I am shocked too, just like there is a lot of other NBA websites out there like Jared Wade said at Eight Points, Nine Seconds. Speaking of Jared Wade, I gave him an A+ on his NBA nicknames project for Baller class at Dunk School.

Wade also found that Michael Beasley has some tight tattoos. I got to say, those are pretty tight. But you don’t want to click on that hyperlink, becuase I know, I know really know, that you are very lazy and you are just not going to click on that hyperlink to see some awesome, tight tattoos. So with me puttign a lot of commas in that sentence, and probably on this one, too, let’s just stop this and look at his tats right here, exactly right here, at The Daily Diop at FootBasket. So here is the pic:

Damn, nice!

Damn, nice!

Damn, nice tats Beas! But if you go to that hyperlink, and please do, you’ll see other pictures of guys with tight tattoos, with guys like 50 Cent, LeBron James, and Anderson Varejao being the p***y he is. And guess what another big thing is…David Stern is cool. But if you think that’s crazy, let’s go and see Michael Jordan ballin’ at freaking age 46, the same age as my father!

Yeah, I know, all of this is  all cool but I think it’s time we should close this article up and wrap it up as well. It’s time for me to hit the old dusty trail. So…yeah. This is The Daily Diop. And also, I discovered a new thing, I know why Antoine Walker shoots so many threes, thanks to the question the 1970s Larry Bird asked. To see why he shoots so many, click here.

Well this is The Daily Diop. Thank you for reading! More Diop crap coming soon!
