Re: OT: Marqus Blakely 1/6 He owns it!

Unfortunately his team lost by 3. Also, he did all that with only 19 mins playing time. I'm positive if they would have let him play more, he would have got it.

Re: OT: Marqus Blakely 1/6 He owns it!

Pretty sure his All-Star Game coach was the Iowa Energy coach. Not sensing good vibes there.

That said, Marqus was awesome in the game.

Re: OT: Marqus Blakely 1/6 He owns it!

Quite a long bit about Marqus (about halfway down) in hoopsworld.com's NBA AM.

Worth reading, but I wasn't sure if it was too long to quote in its entirety here.

Lin Provides The Blueprint: There is no doubting that the Jeremy Lin story has captivated the NBA and the sports world, but for players in the D-League, where Lin was playing just a few weeks ago, the Jeremy Lin story is further proof that sometimes all you need to do is fight and wait for your opportunity.

Marqus Blakely of the Sioux Falls Skyforce was named a D-League All-Star this year after competing in the skills competition last year.

Marqus, like many of the players in Orlando representing the D-League, is looking for his chance to prove he belongs in the NBA. [more...]

Nice article.

Gerald Green, former Celtic, got called up to the Nets on a 10-day contract. MVP in the D-League All-Star game probably helped. Clippers also recently called up Bobby Simmons, but he was a former NBA player that at one point was pretty good.

Marqus's team also won the shooting event in the skills competition also. Apparently Marqus hit the half-court shot:

Re: OT: Marqus Blakely 1/6 He owns it!

According to the NBA D-League Futurecast Halftime Statistics, Marqus Blakely leads Sioux Falls with 12 points and 7 rebounds. SF is down something like 70-50 to the Bakersfield Jam. Can that be right? [checks] Apparently in the D League, yes. Seventy points by halftime.

Just got NBA 2K12 for the PS3.

Making a Blakely Character now.

Let's hope I can replace it soon with the actual Marqus Blakely!

If the NBA doesn't work out, he should make a fortune overseas shouldn't he?

With those kind of numbers against that competition?

I just don't see HOW the NBA doesn't work out. Marqus has improved tremendously since his days at UVM. The better competition he faces, the better he becomes. I expect him to be signed to a contract soon.

He's a 6-foot-5 power forward.

For example, look at Gerald Green... he's 6-foot-8 GUARD.

It's obvious why Marqus is having trouble breaking into the league - he's out of position.
