Everyone's favorite hearthrob before the Draft got sent down to the DLeage by the Hawks. In 2 games he is averaging 15 points 5 rebounds and 4.5 assists. Ironically the team he is playing with (Bakersfield) also is affiilated with the Jazz.
 
He'd be starting PG on JazzFanz dream lineup:

Shröder
Brewer
Jan Vesely
Biyombo
Sene
 
I understand now why players don't like to go to the DLeague, fans take it as a sign of patheticness. The league is there to develop players who aren't quite ready yet but have potential. Frankly, if it weren't for our injuries, I think GoBear should go down there to to learn how to hold on to the dang ball.

Edit: as for Schroeder, from what I understand, it's no surprise that he got sent down, he didn't seem to have any mid range game or the ability to drive to the basket. I'm sure he still has elite level lateral quickness, so it's up to him to figure the rest out.

It's funny how quickly the tide has turned...


One minute Schroeder was HOT in the SL, and Burke was not.


The next thing you know, Burke is in contention for ROY and Schroeder is sent to the DLeague...

Plus the Hawks are in a position where the Jazz have been - a playoff team that doesn't really have a good chance of winning the championship. So rather than continue letting Schroeder develop in the NBA at the possible expense of some early losses (and jeopardizing playoff chances), they've gone with Shelvin Mack as the primary backup PG for now. I'm sure Schroeder will regain most of the backup PG minutes by the time the All-Star break comes around.
