:lol Not even good enough to have a team trade for him when the Spurs wanted to dump his ass

[Mel_13]

For a guy named playblair, you're awfully happy about news that Blair won't be playing.

[MVPCues]

You need professional help.

Pretty pathetic. Spurs have tried the full season to trade him and still can't find anyone. Seriously, wtf were teams asking, if he couldn't just be shipped by himself.

[EricB]

Couldn't even get a decent draft pick.

for a kid who was considered the steal of the draft a couple years ago.

That's what's so ironic. If he's Blair's biggest fan he should be pissed he's still here.

[Pasta Batman]

He's had a few good games against them, but most of those were prior to the changes they've undergone. Also, Tony Delk once scored 50 points in a game...

[Sean Cagney]

Whipty fucking doo, we still after all these years still have Bonner and BLAIR on the team. THANK GOD we do not rely on them bums anymore.

[capek]

That's what's so ironic. If he's Blair's biggest fan he should be pissed he's still here.

But then he'd have no reason to troll on the best NBA forum on the net tbh

I can see his dumb, twisted logic here

Mel with the no mercy for human life good :lol

[benefactor]

Bold prediction...Blair asks to be bought out so he can sign elsewhere to showcase for a new deal.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

blair is worthless. the spurs should just release him.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

he's a wasted roster spot.

[RD2191]

lol

[LittleCriminal]

Oh well.. Let's hope when #45 does play he actually helps the team instead of blowing dong as usual.
Spurs need to play Baynes ahead of this scrub too.

I'm still happy with knowing he's gone after this season.

[playblair]

blair will make haters believers this post season ................

blair will be oberto ............


Oh well. Perhaps Blair will emerge as the Spurs secret weapon in a much-anticipated WCF matchup with OKC. Maybe he'll have a flashback performance with a double-double.

[Darius McCrary]

I'm glad we didn't trade him for scraps.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

yes no more blair showcase at least. it's baynes time.

[Pasta Batman]

blair will be oberto ............


WTF?!

[Strategic]

Toros have a roster spot?

[dunkman]

Blair & Bonner = Spurs 4 life

[BatManu20]

Dammit R.C and Pop... How could you not get ANYTHING for him? What a disappointing trade deadline for us. Couldn't even get another big or a backup PG. Fail.

[cheguevara]

so Atlanta didn't pull the trigger on Blair for Smith??????!!!!!

:lmao dude just sucks. 12th man spot needs to learn and perform Crabby Patty's towel repertoire

[Spur|n|Austin]

Gotta wonder whos troll playblair is..

[Pasta Batman]

Dammit R.C and Pop... How could you not get ANYTHING for him? What a disappointing trade deadline for us. Couldn't even get another big or a backup PG. Fail.

Or it says just how little market Blair has. It sounds like everyone's asking price was too much, so obviously, it was Blair + something else

[timvp]

I'm glad the Spurs kept Blair. Getting pick above 45 would have been a bad trade.

The Spurs obviously think Blair is worth more insurance-wise than the money owed to him. I think that's a perfectly logical assessment.

[Libri]

Had a good gif lined up. Oh well, will have to wait till the summer.

[loveforthegame]

I can't wait for the Blair-Ibaka, Blair-Randolph, Blair-Griffin matchups. Fun times.

[baseline bum]

I feel bad for DeJuan. Was hoping he'd get moved somewhere where he'd have a chance to earn a decent contract next season.

[spurraider21]

A part of me wanted Blair to get dealt just so playblair would stop.

Seriously with the "........." After every sentence fragment. On ST you are supposed to finish sentences with tbh, IMO, fwiw, not ".............."

[venitian navigator]

the only trade that could have been decent was Blair for O Neal...but probably the Suns weren't going to bite...

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I can't wait for the Blair-Ibaka, Blair-Randolph, Blair-Griffin matchups. Fun times.

as a spurs fan it actually pains me to say. and i'm talking playoffs here. maybe not idiot ibaka... MAYBE. but against randolph and griffin, blair don't stand a chance.

[Whisky Dog]

If Blair is playing more than just a couple token/garbage minutes in any playoff series then something went incredibly wrong. He won't be starting this season and shouldn't be in the rotation at all.

Then this summer he'll walk on a 1 year deal with someone and get a chance to show something elsewhere.

[SenorSpur]

I wouldn't at all be surprised to see Blair end up in a Dallas Mavs uniform next year. Seeing as how Cuban is always picking up scraps from the Spurs. anyway. Mark my words.

[Leetonidas]

Blair is fucking trash but at least he is decent injury insurance because he knows his role and the system already

[ThaBigFundamental21]

Personally I didn't want to move Blair for nothing. His salary is cheap, and he does good against OKC. I just wish Pop would play the damn guy against them. Shit.

[DapDaGenius]

I can't wait for the Blair-Ibaka, Blair-Randolph, Blair-Griffin matchups. Fun times.

What about the occasional "IIRC"? Maybe ".........." can be the new thing.

Someone has to rebound during the shoot around.

to be fair Blair was actually playing reasonably well that game prior to that play

[DapDaGenius]

Still a funny play. Then the title. LOL

Fuck Blair, playbaynes.

[dbestpro]

If Blair would play angry, stop trying to be a star, and just do the one thing he did well when he came into the league (rebound) then he could be an important player. ...................... Not gonna happen.

[spurraider21]

Fuck Blair, playbaynes.

I wouldn't get my hopes up regarding Baynes getting rotation minutes this year at all. Its just not looking like Pop is even willing to give him garbage time minutes. That said, I'm curious as to why we pushed to acquire him midseason if we weren't planning on using him yet.

[ThaBigFundamental21]

Blair has lost a lot of weight. It's not that to hard to see.

[DapDaGenius]

Yeah I know, I just like saying playbaynes. I think they went to acquire him for next season. With Bliar leaving after this season, Baynes should really take his minutes next season. Just like with Kawhi, I believe Baynes has the potential to play somewhere around our expectations. He just needs the minutes to adjust, properly.

[DapDaGenius]

Yeah, Blair needs motivation to play well, sometimes. He did well when he first joined b/c he was mad that all other passed up on him b/c of his no-ACLs. If we trade him, he'll probably play good for whoever, then he return to regular ole' Blair after a while.

[Strategic]

Blair hanging on is likely an indication that Pop doesn't think Baynes will be able to help this year tbh.......:shootme

[blkroadrunners]

:cry I wanted Casspi :cry

[ace3g]

Maximum Sports ‏@MaxSportsSA (https://twitter.com/MaxSportsSA) Happy Walters, Dejuan Blair's agent on client not being traded "Obviously I am disappointed that we were not able to get a trade done..

but I trust Pop and RC and I know they tried their best and have Dejuan and the Spurs best interests at heart.

When Pop needs Dejuan, he'll be ready to contribute as he always has been."

[DJR210]

playblair, did you previously post under the name GoPaTTy?

[davidbowie]

blair is the man....heart and soul of the team for sure!!!

the only REAL N WORD reppin on social media....keepin the spurs relevant!!!!!

D BLAIR!!!!!!!!!

[Boomersgold]

I don't think playblair's a Patty fan. He or she was here before Patty even joined the team.

[Boomersgold]

Again, I can never really tell if someone's being sarcastic online. I can only assume that this is sarcasm, right?

He needs time to learn/practice. It's not like Diaw or Jackson who was already in the NBA.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Grizz is here for the season and I don't have a problem with it now that we have Baynes when we need a big fella to lay down some law. Also, you simply don't trade at the deadline if you have a team with chemistry this good, unless that trade fills a glaring hole.

It looks to me like we've found a backup PG (De Colo), and a big, mean beast of a kid (BANE!!!), and no-one out there could deliver a player that would've been a difference maker for in return for Grizz or any of our other expendables. Besides, Grizz knows the system, he's been pretty good in limited minutes this year, and he costs very little, so it doesn't hurt to keep him for the season.

Instead of trading for trading's sake, the Spurs FO has put faith in the system and the guys they have to take them as far as they can go. This is the Spurs' Way.

For mine, this team has a real chance at a championship, just like last year. All we need now is for OKC bigs not to shoot 22/25 EVER AGAIN, and things might turn out the way we want them to. :D

[racm]

Why, the Spurs let Anderson walk for nothing, signed him for a while to shore up the wing depth when KL/Jax were out, then promptly cut him when Baynes looked to be available.

Blair might have a similar trajectory.
