[phyzik]

:lol @ G. Hill talking about asking Duncan for permission to ask the newbs for donuts.

[DMX7]

Videos aren't working for me. :(

[Muser]

Blair giving Timmy some big props.

[spursdotcom]

Videos aren't working for me. :(

Sorry, refresh, they will work eventually. It's the NBA's player. They are aware of the issue. Also seems to work better with Firefox

:toast

[timvp]

Great work.

Thanks.

[koriwhat]

who invited lil' wayne to guard GH3?

oh and i'm lovin' the signing of hairston right now even more! dude is total class.

[spursdotcom]

Not sure if everyone has checked out the photos...

maybe check out number two in the slide show.

:toast

[koriwhat]

ps: oooh! damn! blair is ill!

[spursdotcom]

Haislip worked out with the squad. Probably expect something from Mike Monroe in the near future about him (photo number 10).

[Bruno]

Thanks a lot for all these videos.

[koriwhat]

engelland + hill = :ace

[TimDunkem]

maybe check out number two in the slide show.

Is that Gist swatting that crap? :lol

[timvp]

spursdotcom are you guys going to Vegas for summer league? :)

[koriwhat]

thanks spursdotcom!

[Spurs Brazil]

Thanks a lot. GREAT job

I liked that coach Newman said it'll be G.Hill summer. He said it's up to him to show he can be TP backup. He also said he's working hard with Chip

I guess that's the downside of Mr. Peter Holt spending up on the roster...

Can't view the video right now. What did he say?

[Buddy Holly]

If you can, how would you rank the players that you saw? Who impressed you the most? Who surprised you? etc

[crc21209]

Thanks alot spursdotcom :toast

That's not accurate. It wasn't budgeted for last year.

We saw fewer than 10 minutes of play. Naturally I was trying to watch Hill, McClinton, Blair, Mahinmi, Haislip, Hairston and Gist - looked like a good group, but I couldn't give any sort of evaluation really.

Did RC color his hair?

I'm going to Vegas this weekend and will definitely see this team play before I leave on Sunday

Haislip worked out with the squad. Probably expect something from Mike Monroe in the near future about him (photo number 10).

You mean as to whether Haislip will play on SL team? Anyone have an idea as to whether he'll play in Vegas?

[timvp]

You mean as to whether Haislip will play on SL team? Anyone have an idea as to whether he'll play in Vegas?

He won't.

[Buddy Holly]

You mean as to whether Haislip will play on SL team? Anyone have an idea as to whether he'll play in Vegas?

Highly doubtful he'd play. Basically, no. He'd have to volunteer to play as he's 28 and played in the NBA before. The Spurs know what they're getting in the guy so they wouldn't ask him to play.

[yavozerb]

I wouldn't want him to play simply cause it would take away minutes from mahinmi,gist,or blair. These are the guys who need the most PT and have the most questions (probably not blair so much)

[VI_Massive]

Highly doubtful he'd play. Basically, no. He'd have to volunteer to play as he's 28 and played in the NBA before. The Spurs know what they're getting in the guy so they wouldn't ask him to play.

Yeah I figured he wouldn't need the pro experience, per se. But maybe for exposure to the Spurs system in game scenarios, etc. But I guess that can be achieved in practices and early in the regular season.

[Interrohater]

@spursdotcom:
dude, set up a live webcam feed in the practice facility. You can justify the expenditure by selling ad space on the wall directly opposite the camera, I know you'd have mad traffic!:lol

The Spurs know what they're getting in the guy so they wouldn't ask him to play.I don't know why he can't?..Michael Sweetney is playing for the Celtics in the Summer League isn't he?...And he was in the NBA a whole lot longer than Haislip?...

[vanishing_dude]

nice post..thanks..

[Buddy Holly]

I never said he can't. It's a matter of the team asking or the player volunteering.

[mingus]

seeing Gist (rebounding off of free throws), he's pretty lean and looks mobile. there's a lot of doubts about whether he can play the 3 ... judging by just the way he looks i would say he can play it defensively. it's be great if he could grow into a defensive specialist for the Spurs. Spurs seem to be lacking one right now.

got gist? :wow

[angelbelow]

sweet thank you

[spursnatic]

Any of you that are having trouble watching the practice videos on spurs.com..Go to NBA.com and they are working over there!!!...

[BackHome]

The two things that stood out were that Blair is big mofo and Ian is one tall skinny dude. I am pretty sure that Blair is going to be putting the hurt on alot of players I just hope not ours..lol.

[angelbelow]

blair looked good on that first post.

[Taking it to the Hole]

blair looked good on that first post.

That face up jumper wasn't too bad either. :toast

Who was the guy guarding Blair?? He looked frustrated.

[completely deck]

Most overused yet relevant emoticon: :hungry:

[stxspurs]

Ians legs look like manute bols.....he is gonna get pushed around down there

[bigdog]

Yeah, but that's how Ian has always looked. He's also always moved like he did in that video. That's just him. He could probably work on lower body strength.

[Avitus1]

Good stuff.

[SouthTexasRancher]

Thanks....we've got a great group of youth. Spurs have a bright future.

Seriously. I am more excited about the young squad than Jefferson or Dice.

[DynastyBuilder]

Nice take by Hill... Blair with the jumper... Nice. I'd like to have seen Jack take some shots though.

:tu

[spursbird]

Why can't I see the video?

[spursjustice]

Damn, I love the demeanor of Blair and Hill. Future captains of the Spurs.

[urunobili]

Malik all class... damn I love this kid... for the first time i really liked Mahimini's approach when talking, he seemed relaxed and confident...
