Josh Childress signs with Denver Nuggets

Add Heal and the Central Coast dude to the list with Connelly.

I wish to clarify my previous statement if it suggested Damian Cotter was a bad coach. I don't know this for a fact of course.

All I have to go with is his poor record, which could easily be attributed to Childress' long absence. I together with many other fans were looking to big things from the Kings that year but were 'let down' in a way.

A vibrant Kings franchise is important for the league.

Oh wow forgot about those two. Kings were sooo comical during that stretch with head coaching appointments.

It didn't help that his coaches during his second stint was damian Cotter and then *cringe* Joe Connelly.

Ah ok, so Kings were unlucky then. Poor Wookiee, extending his pain :)

ha! Yes, indeed... We had the potential to be great, but just wasn't meant to be... It's like dating that hot chick in high school but her only letting you do over the top stuff (not all tha tyou want, but still pretty ok), and then finding out she went all the way with the next guy after you...

Would have loved to have him back this season as I agree that with the right team around him and not having to work so hard to do EVERYTHING, he would be even better than before... his first season here, he was top 5 in pts, assists(?), rebounds, steals (and blocks?), put him in a team with even just Lisch and it would have been great...

Agree that he didn't have the best Big3 tournament, which was disappointing to see, but his team was rubbish...

"Chilly! And there were some on this forum who said he wasn't good enough for the nbl lol"

I don't think anyone said that, but a lot including myself did question his durability..."

Won't make the final squad. Much prefer TC at the next level as he is more well rounded, but JC probably more potent in NBL as he does a couple of things really well for that level.
Childress better at shooting??? You're kidding right? Not a shooter at all. In fact, that's why he struggled in the NBA in the first place at Phoenix.

Wouldn't last 82 games, in fact he won't make the final squad anyway.

He is too injury prone, which is a shame.

Did he suffer any big injuries before the two freakish ones that he suffered in the NBL? After the NBL he got through a full D-League season, a full season in Japan and then a Big3 "season" which from all accounts was pretty physical as well...

Childress is more than good enough for the NBL skill-wise as a top tier import, it's just a bit of a gamble considering his durability.

Slightly misleading that CBS title. Its only a training camp invite and ESPN has cited 'sources' said highly unlikely he will make regular roster.

Thought I would share this with the hoops community. Currently there is a team of high school athletes playing in the Kentucky Hoopsfest. Lots of D1 College interest in Daniel Carlin from centrals.

If you want to watch the games go to
