Nando de Colo?

[Ace]

That's the Spurs best off season addition? :lmao

[koriwhat]

we can't all be gifted a championship + 2 top 10 sg's.

[pass1st]

Spurs take what they can get, hardly anybody wants to play there tbh.

[ElNono]

More frenchies, ugh...

[Stalin]

[Koolaid_Man]

That's the Spurs best off season addition? :lmao

Nando de Colo? - is that some kind of new cheese for my Nacho's

[hater]

nando boom

[Bill_Brasky]

Nando > Dirk

[Calispursfan11]

Spurs were right there with their current squad in the western conf finals. De Colo gives them another playmaker and backup to TP. There's no reason to think they will drop off significantly this year. They will be right back up there in the top 4 teams. Btw, Rayray is a TOSB now.

[8FOR!3]

Will get a big one way or another in free agency. Blair, Bonner, they'll all be gone. James Anderson will be gone unless he proves to the FO he'll have a different kind of year.

[VBM]

Nando de Asshole :lol

[WeNeedLength]

No one wants to play for the Spurs :cry:cry:cry

[Spurs da champs]

That's the Spurs best off season addition? :lmao

:lol Rashard Lewis!

[VBM]

:lol Rashard Lewis!

:lmao Matt Bonner making more than him

We've no room...:depressed

[Brazil]

I'm surprised you spell it correctly tbh

[Ace]

:lol Rashard Lewis!

Ray Allen > He can pass!

[sexinthatsx]

Rashard Lewis is just a washed up overweight NBA player who has nothing left in the tank anymore.

Ray Allen, on the other hand... is still able to make big shots, but don't count on him taking a game over.

I'd rather take my chances with Nando, a promising point guard who is still developing his game.

:lol Nando is not better then Allen, probably not even lewis.

[racm]

Allen = best 3pt shooter in NBA history
Lewis = one of the few stretch 4s to make an All-Star game
De Colo = needs to work on D

:lmao

Ray Allen needs to take a game over? All he has to do is hit open shots playing off the big 3. Cool YouTube video faggot :tu

Yeah... sorry man I meant to say that Ray Allen can't take over a game as the primary option. He can very well hit open 3's, which is exactly what the Heat needed.

However, at this point I think Nando De Colo was the best option for the spurs given the choice between all 3 of the players

[The Gemini Method]

Nando de Culooooooooooooooooooo!

Sounds like a reggaeton song that'll be played to death here in SoCal...

I'm sure the Spurs would choose Allen over Nando if they had that choice. Lewis at the minimum is better than Bonner.

Of course, I don't think anyone knows what Colo will do(except the Spurs) so we will have to wait and see. At least they aren't going out and giving away ridiculous contracts like Irson, Johnson, Brooks, Lin, Gordon etc etc.

Kareem has an awesome resume too, but that doesn't mean he'd be a good signing today.

I agree that there's no sign that De Colo is in the same league as either of them, and I would have signed either one of them too on the chance that they might be useful, but that still doesn't mean that Allen and Lewis are going to have much impact at this stage in their careers. They could just add to the growing Heat collection of has-been bench jockeys.

Bonner is actively a negative asset at this point. I'd rather have a D League player on the roster for the minimum, never mind Rashard Lewis.

Given that we have Ginobili and Jackson coming off the bench on the wing, I'd rather have De Colo, but only because he should be able to contend for minutes at the point, where we don't have a proven backup. Allen's still a considerably better player until proven otherwise.

Allen shot 45% from 3 last year and since had the bone spurs removed. He will get great open looks with the Heat...

He'll be able to shoot for as long as he can walk out on the court, but he's getting up there in age, and can't stay in front of anyone at this point.

He's Wade's back up...

For sure. And don't get me wrong, it's a good signing -- a clutch veteran shooter off the bench is an absolute blessing in the playoffs. But the need to hide him on defense limits the ways you can use him is all.

[racm]

Spo will inevitably use him to build up big leads.

Crunch time lineup will involve James/Wade/Bosh and probably guys like Battier or Chalmers.

Next to Lebron and Wade, it won't be a problem tbh...

Let just hope he doesn't take a page out of Mike Miller's playbook and start sucking once he joins the Heat
