    1. Agreed to a reported deal with center Joffrey Lauvergne



    The Spurs have a history of getting the most out of limited role players, but I don't think Lauvergne is likely to help them much.
    We can probably rule out the idea of Lauvergne being an NBA center. Somehow, he blocked just six shots in 980 minutes last season, including none in the 214 he played in Chicago.


    That leaves Lauvergne trying to stretch the floor at power forward. He attempted almost 30 percent of his shots from downtown between the Bulls and the Oklahoma City Thunder last season, but made them at just a 33.7 percent clip, not really sufficient to keep defenders tied to him.


    As a result of those limitations, Lauvergne rated 2.5 points per 100 possessions worse than league average in ESPN's real plus-minus (RPM) last season.

    We are really letting him have 77.

    That sucks. I see any number above 19 that ends in a 6, 7, 8, or 9, or any number above 55, as gimmicky.

    I liked that last year Manu had the second-highest jersey number on the team. I wanted Bertans to take 15 or something so all the numbers would be less than 21.

    2nd Spur to have a number higher than 55 since Drew Gooden (90)

    I would've stuck with #7, his NT number tbh

    Lauvernge looks like a weird combo between Mark Whalberg and Nick Collison
    He looks kind of like the fighter Paco in bloodsport.

    Check it out.https://www.google.com/search?q=paco+bloodsport

    He's into kickboxing. We already know that from previous videos. Joffrey is a paco fan I reckon.

    Thanks for sharing ... seems like just a depth signing. A big body to throw around in case of injuries or if anderson/Bertans are getting manhandled by some bulky big. He's unlikely to be better than either of them if played as a PF, and its guaranteed he won't be as good as LmA or Pau if played as a Center. Not expecting much from him.. maybe it's bc I haven't seen him play but I am kind of expecting Jeff Ayers with better hands, which if Ayers had better hands, he would have been useful. I would be thrilled if he can be a version of Baynes tbh.

    Don't insult the guy, SA girl. He has some skills and belongs in the nba. Ayers did not.

    Quite a few posters thought Joff was a good get by OKC, iirc. All is well on ST...

    eehh.. keep in mind I haven't watched Joff but he's about the same height as Ayers, is an athletic big, and he can't shoot very well by the looks of it same as Ayers... so in reality he should be a 5, but bc of that lack of rim protection he's not very good 5. Keep in mind also that Ayers had very bad hands. A Jeff Errors with better hands might still be around the league somewhere. Spurs also got Errors around 25-26 years old and he was kind of mystery athletic big that had never been in a rotation (for a reason!). I will be glad if Lauvergne is kinda like Baynes like I said.... Bottom line, I am not expecting much... basically keeping those expectations down.

    I'm not sure it is. I have heard nothing about how much it is or if there is an option and blah blah blah.

    Exactly.

    Ayres is the worst player I've ever seen in my life.

    Because with two other bigs on the team, they can't waste a precious roster spot on someone who might be healthy for half the season if you're lucky.

    The Mullett was a bad player. But Bateer wasn't a player at all. He was a just a novelty. He made Boban look like DRob.
