Where did he go? The Celtics released him and the last I heard he was signed by the CBA Pittsburgh team.

He signed was us last week. Now he is with the Xplosion. I think he'll be a very valuable addition for us.

Excellent. Thanks for the information. He was in Minnesota working out with the Timberwolves with Konecny and Fesenko (from the Ukraine). Although they play different positions, it will be interesting to watch Pittsnogle in comparison to Konecny. I think Pittsnogle is good, but Konecny wasn't even on anyone's radar and this may do it.

I've seen what Pittsnogle is capable of, watching a few games of the NCAA tournament last season when he lead the Mountaineers, so he deserves to catch on to a good club in the NBA. He'll have a great shot, playing with the Xplosion, while keeping in shape and helping us. I think our turnout will improve too. We averaged 1,600 in our last few games in the ABA. I'm sure it will grow from there. He will be a big attraction.

I see that the Minot Sky Rockets have Lenny Cooke 6'6" G, Mark Konency 6'11" F and 7' Steve Castelberry 265 C. I think that there will be some good games between Pittsburgh and Minot. Looking forward to flying in to watch.

I'm sure they will be. The Skyrockets were a good team when in San Jose last season. Both they and the Xplosion made it well into the playoffs.
I would think that Minot will build a good following for them and more will come out here to see the Xplosion. Should be very competitive.
