I agree
Maybe because of the way he moves on the court.
I agree
Age is seen as a negative for many bad GMs. His shot i as very inconsistent anf streaky. When he's feeling it, you'd think he was a first rounder, but he doesn't feel it often and those misses barely hit the run at times. He also has a tendency to drift in games mentally. Shown signs to lose focus and inconsistent on defense. He can play great defense, then on the next play open up wrong and let his man walk to the rim.
Luckily for us, those are all coachable attributes. He definitely has room to improve, but it will take quite a bit of work to get there.
Small ball pf/c is also a possibility . He has the strength and athleticism to do it. He has said in interviews he is willing as well. Seems like thw right at ude to make the league.
The Iggy comparison he gave himself is looking accurate (although of course he may not even be close to Iggy production-wise at the moment).
I heard he started shaving.
heh.. guys think his career is done frankly. lol I laugh at their ignorance.
Been saying it since draft night, but I really like this pick a lot. Think he has a bright future in the NBA. Not as a star but a solid 3&D player like LDN.

How did he do in the elimination game against portland? Apparently Spurs got outrebounded big time.
Rebounded better than anyone on the team apparently, and that was against the best rebounder in the draft in Swanigan.
He was our 3rd leading rebounder behind Jefferson and Whittingon at 4 a game (didn't count Murray bc he didn't play the last couple games).

True, but that has nothing to do with Blossom. Would have been White's problem. BG's actually doing reasonably well in Austin right now.
Really wish he was one of the Spurs' two-way contracts tbh.
The worst part of not drafting Bell is that there were a lot of people here asking for him, so it wasn't as if his was a case of hindsight, tbh.
Also, looking at the roster construction, a bigman did a lot more sense than a guard. Bell would be getting a lot more minutes than what White has got so far. Just a bad move all around.
Would be a good time to have him now with the team needing players who can play PF and Brandon Paul sucking it up as the backup SF.
I would not have been surprised if the team knew they wanted Brandon Paul anyway, so they should have known their guard depth was "fine". Even if Bryn hadn't had that epic summer league, there were options like Hanlan or any of the guards who showed out (Mike James?) who could have stepped in.
The lack of a fourth legit big is maddening, even if I like the smalls as individuals. That missing depth has been causing problems left and right.
Pop playing an undersized big who doesn't space the floor? Lol he doesn't fit our system. Look at the bigs we play... they all stretch the floor... silly talk.
Edit: even our scrub two way player, Costello shoots threes... that alone should tell y'all the direction we are going with bigs. Dedmon is better than Bell with similar skill set and we let him walk. Y'all overrating GS players again...

He is the third best guy on the Toros team.
This. When I go to the game and watch Joff play I my pants
^What will happen to you if Gasol or LMA go down?
