After running amok for 23 games in the Developmental League, Malik Hairston is back with the Spurs today. The team recalled Hairston from the Austin Toros, after he averaged 21.1 points per game, good for fifth in the D-League.

Hairston, a rookie swingman out of Oregon, was originally acquired in a draft-day swap of second-round picks with Phoenix, then was waived as the last cut of training camp in October. The Spurs re-signed him Dec. 22 and assigned him to the Toros.

Hairston, whose contract is guaranteed for the remainder of the season, has yet to appear in a regular-season game for the Spurs.

UPDATE: Spurs coach Gregg Popovich joked before tonight's game against New Orleans that Hairston's call-up was just a precursor to another big pending move. "We're looking to trade Manu, and we're looking for someone to replace him. We think Malik can handle it."

On the serious side, Popovich said Hairston's work in Austin earned him a shot with the Spurs. He will be active for tonight's game. "If there's an opportunity to play, we're going to get him in there," Popovich said.

[Andy25]

Pop just likes to troll people.

[timvp]

Maybe Pop stumbled upon a trade Manu thread :lol

[m33p0]

Pop is a troll.

[Austin_Toros]

Maybe Pop stumbled upon a trade Manu thread :lol

Yeah, Pop was "joking"
He finally realised that every spurs fan wants Manu O-U-T.

Pop, old man, I love ya!

[Tully365]

Pop satirizing spurstalk.

[Galileo]

Word has it that CIA Pop spends up to an hour a couple times a week on Spurstalk. Some of the players do, too. He feels it is a good way to connect with the fans, and since Pop is an outside-the-box coach, he likes to have diverse ideas bounced off him, since a majority of the posters here are intelligent, knowledgeable fans.

Think about it. If YOU were Pop, wouldn't YOU read Spurstalk?

Pop also enjoys the political section as well, if only for a good chuckle in substitute of a cold beer.

And I forgot to mention that Stern told Pop a couple years ago that his TV interviews were unappealing and short, and not to treat an interview like some secretive military operation, and to go loosen up on the Net. That's when Pop discovered Spurstalk. Have you not noticed that Pop's interviews aren't cold like just a few years ago?

:flag:

[Supergirl]

LOL, that is classic Pop humor guys. jeez.

well, you know. like Duncan told Bruce... "if you're a fan of a team, you should get their [coach's] name right."

[Rapper]

I mean that will the Spurs retire Manu's Jerseys at the end of his careers if he really gets traded?

Can you guarantee that Manu will play for the spurs unitl he retires?

[DAF86]

well, you know. like Duncan told Bruce... "if you're a fan of a team, you should get their [coach's] name right."

I know how to spell Pop's name, I just missed a "g", I don't know if you noticed but I also added an extra "h" to Popovich.

Wow joking about trading a player. That is about as funny as my platoon SGT joking about smoking me, or someone's boss joking about firing them.
