Let me say this. I went to Temple so I'm a little biased but I got to watch Mardy in his last two years and I like the guy. He's a "head" and he was educated on playing defense under Chaney. I was pretty happy when Zeke picked him and I still am and I hope he becomes that elusive true point guard that we've been searching for basically the last two decades.

But, I've definitely come to terms that Mardy just doesn't look to be ready for the big leagues yet.



I know we're injured and all but, maybe, sending Mardy down to the D-League for a little while might get him better prepared. At least it'll get him some playing time - albeit against D-League scrubs but it's something I guess.

What do you guys think? Should we hang onto him, use him as trade bait, or send him down to whatever D-League team we've got?

is better than having him rot on the bench and learning from the wrong people..it would do wonders for his confidence

You know the term AAAA player?

That'll be Mardy. If he's lucky.

I just picked up on this. I read this about 5 times and blinked several times before I got it.

Yep... Our guards inclusing former guards need some bodyguards
