Hey this is pretty cool – Marty Pocius is blogging for Euroleague Basketball.

Former Duke Blue Devil Dave McClure was drafted by the Austin Toros of the D-League where, if he chooses to, he’d play for fellow Duke alum Quin Snyder.

Shelden Williams appears to be making the most of his chance in Boston with Glen Davis out after breaking his thumb in a fight.  So does Dahntay Jones, who signed with Indiana to provide defense, but has moved past Brandon Rush to start and is providing some offense as well.

J.J. Redick had one of the games of his pro career, hitting for 27 against Toronto after getting a pep talk from Coach K.

Here’s another nice early review of Shelden Williams and his role with the Boston Celtics. Everyone sounds pleased.  Check out his early stat line: 19.6 minutes, 8.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 1.0 blocks, 50% shooting, and 85.7% from the line.  He also got a double-double against the Bulls.

Chris Duhon knows a thing or two about what makes a good team and how to win.  So when he saw his Knicks teammates not taking things seriously, he let them know about it.

Here’s an update on the Landlord in Beantown, where Doc Rivers sees a talented defender and sees a solid role for him with the Celtics.  Shelden seems pretty happy with his move.

Gerald Henderson got to start his career in the same place his father did (well at least on the parquet floor), but one hopes dear old dad had a happier debut.
