[edit] Attendance

Can anyone add average attendance figures either for each team or each game. I have found some on forums, but they are older and it would be nice if they came from a more official source. Hawk8103 (talk) 18:27, 18 May 2008 (UTC)


[edit] MAP

I don't know how to do maps, but one could be added like the one on the NBA wikipedia page. Hawk8103 (talk) 18:27, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Page Standards

While I'm not a huge fan of the NBDL, there is a new team in my hometown (Austin), and so it has brought the league to my attention. The NBA certainly seems to be committed to keeping this league going, so it's probably in the best interest of Wikipedia to make these pages at least decent. I've personally established the new pages for Austin and Albuquerque, and now the only teams w/o standard format pages are Tulsa and Arkansas. While I realize these teams may continue to be fluid in location (as will their players), is anyone other than me interested in perhaps keeping these pages up-to-date?

  • I am interested and am currently helping upkeep anyway. I'm the athletic trainer for the Florida Flame and have been an avid 'pedian for months. Eric 04:18, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
    • I left a comment on your talk page about the name change (I think "NBDL" rather than "D-League" should be used for sentences talking about things which happened prior to the summer 2005 name change) - what do you think? 81.110.86.44 07:31, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
      • Somebody typed in Tulsa 89ers in the American Basketball Association page. Wrong, they are the 66ers of the NBA D-league! Some anon don't know pro basketball and I bet he's lost in everything. 207.200.116.203 22:43, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Call-ups?

How do callups work between the NBDL and NBA? Does each team "own" a player, or just the teams that are affiliated with a NBDL team, or can any NBA team take any NBDL player? --AW 21:06, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

I added some about this, but I still don't know that question --AW 21:45, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Scores?

what is up with the scores for the first two championship games? why is it 2-0 and 2-1?

Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.
