Thanks!

Pop on PJ's firing, then some Ime, then footage of Tony on the court, and then Ahearn and Hill throwing it down.

Good stuff.

[duncan228]

Thanks again for keeping us up on these.

[justinandimcool]

Who was that dunking at the end with George? Ahearn?

[DPG21920]

LOL at Hill and Ahearn! TP is jealous!

[DPG21920]

Who was that dunking at the end with George? Ahearn?

Yes

[itzsoweezee]

damn, didn't know ahearn could get up like that

[tp2021]

Now that they know Ahearn can dunk, Spursfans will want to keep him.

He is a capable offensive pg. Like Timvp said, he has a ways to go on defense. But I think he can be a good third pg in the short term with regards to running the offense. Think a very very veryyyyyyyyyy poor mans Nash, at least from what I saw in d-league.

[xtremesteven33]

i would say hes more of a shorter version of brent barry

[polandprzem]

Damn I love their practice gear

[boutons_]

He's an overachiever, by his own admission, which I'd much rather have than a more athletic, underachieving, uncoachable, me-first balla.

If Pop hangs on to him, I bet BA figures out how to be in position on defense, how to help, the offense. BA's interview showed he has a lot of confidence in himself to succeed with what he has.

[completely deck]

Hill can dunk. Let's hope he keeps driving to the basket more and more like he has been.

[tomtom]

Thanks, love these little video updates. Good stuff. HAha nice seeing some dunks from blakey and george

you could have just said Steph.

[Spurs Brazil]

Good to see TP there practicing

[Fermixalot]

Uh...no? This is the Spurs. Athleticism is a no-no.:toast

[benefactor]

Damn I love their practice gear
I thought the same thing. Do they sell that stuff online?

[tp2021]

Uh...no? This is the Spurs. Athleticism is a no-no.:toast

I said Spursfans.

[angelbelow]

is the op a bot? anyway thanks for being consistent.

Can Nash dunk? No

Ahearn > Nash

[mystargtr34]

Hill can dunk. Let's hope he keeps driving to the basket more and more like he has been.

:lol he is 6'2", i think everyone in the league can throw it down in practice, except maybe Nash.

[byrdman31]

i seen nash dunk in in a practice.. it was a small lob and he got it.. saw it in an interview not so long ago

[024]

spurs members aren't allowed to dunk. popovitch forbade all dunking after this incident.

bRwzNubPUc0

:nope

[The Truth #6]

I can't care about the dunking but I would like to see Ahearn get JV's minutes to see what he can do. With Mason and Hill playing well at the point (at least as of last game) I think JV can do more of his legendary mentoring by sitting on the bench and talking to either Ahearn or Hill.

[joeyjfive]

Nice little dunks by both guys at the end there. Definitely didnt see that coming form Ahearn

[SpursFan0728]

Thanks, love these little video updates. Good stuff. HAha nice seeing some dunks from blakey and george

U mean Blakey and Georgie

[m33p0]

[xellos88330]
