Rectory of Reggie Williams

[cjw]

Per Marc Stein, close to signing 10-day with the Spurs. Backing up Kawhi?

[jyra]

Looks like a stopgap until Beli gets healthy again.

[Mel_13]

Made a bunch of 3s for GS in 2011.

If they sign him on Saturday, he'll be on the roster for 5 of the 6 remaining games before the break.

[NASpurs]

NB:lol = f:lolck:lold

[jeebus]

Yesssss, another PG/SG.

[Chinook]

Should have just kept Daye. It's so much harder to negotiate a trade with his contract gone.

[ChumpDumper]

Should have just kept Daye. It's so much harder to negotiate a trade with his contract gone.That assumes the Spurs want to trade anyone.

[Spursfanfromafar]

Offensive minded player. Meh.

[Chinook]

That assumes the Spurs want to trade anyone.

No, it doesn't.

[NASpurs]

It's official now

SAN ANTONIO (Jan. 28, 2015) - The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have signed forward Reggie Williams of the Oklahoma City Blue to a 10-day contract.

Williams, 6-6/210, has appeared in 13 games this season for the Blue of the NBA D-League, averaging 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.08 steals in 31.9 minutes. He has also spent time in the D-League with the Blue in 2013-14 and the Sioux Falls Skyforce in 2009-10. In 69 career D-League games, he has averaged 22.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists in 37.7 minutes.

In the NBA, the Virginia native has suited up for the Oklahoma City Thunder (2013-14), Charlotte Hornets (2011-13) and the Golden State Warriors (2009-11). In 180 total games, he has averaged 8.5 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 19.7 minutes.

Williams has also played internationally for San Miguel Beerman of the Philippines (2014), Caja Laboral of Spain (2011) and JDA Dijon of France (2008-09). He played collegiately at the Virginia Military Institute (2004-08).

Williams will wear No. 55 for the Silver and Black.

[ChumpDumper]

No, it doesn't.OK, then there's no need to make trades easier.

[Chinook]

OK, then there's no need to make trades easier.

Fair enough.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

What's his race and vert? How tall is he? Can he do ally-opp's?

[cjw]

OK, then there's no need to make trades easier.

There's an infinitesimal chance that anyone they trade for will play meaningful postseason minutes. I agree - not sure why people think a blockbuster is in the works.

[NASpurs]

Kind of sad when your highest PPG was your rookie year and each year afterwards is a downwards slope.

[loveforthegame]

Remember liking him with GS. Hustle and energy guy. But haven't paid any attention since then.

I like that the Spurs are at least auditioning guys.

[hater]

MVParker replacement :cry

[r0drig0lac]

Yesssss, another PG/SG.

this

[TheGreatYacht]

Can he play backup SG?

[ChumpDumper]

Can he play backup SG?That's about all he can play.

[Chinook]

There's an infinitesimal chance that anyone they trade for will play meaningful postseason minutes. I agree - not sure why people think a blockbuster is in the works.

Didn't have to be a blockbuster. Almost ANY trade would have been easier with Daye's contract still on the books. Even an Ayres trade. Simply put, that had much more value (and a much higher chance of affecting the roster) than these 10-days. Daye could always be cut if the team found a Danny Green or James Johnson. He can't always be traded.

[TheGreatYacht]

That's about all he can play.
Perfect IMO. That's all I needed to hear

[ChumpDumper]

Simply put, that had much more value (and a much higher chance of affecting the roster) than these 10-days. Daye could always be cut if the team found a Danny Green or James Johnson. He can't always be traded.Well the Danny Green or James Johnson can't be found if the roster is full.

[Chinook]

Well the Danny Green or James Johnson can't be found if the roster is full.

Of course they can. They just can't be signed with a full roster.

[DPG21920]

What an odd call up.

[Seventyniner]

Well the Danny Green or James Johnson can't be found if the roster is full.

Found, yes. Signed, no.

The Spurs clearly would rather have the roster spot to try out D-League players than try to package Daye in a trade. That spot is also available for a bought-out veteran if it comes to that.

[ElNono]

Is he like a mix of Reggie Jackson and Deron Williams?

[timtonymanu]

This guy sucks. :lol

[TheGreatYacht]

His career high is 31pts (8 3PM) vs San Antonio on 12/8/10 :lol

[DPG21920]

Most often a call up is just a call up for a cheap way to look at a guy with an open roster spot, but...

The buyout of Daye (while not large) is still odd - especially with this Green news & now this call up. I wonder if internally it was a big surprise they couldn't reach a deal with Green?

I also wonder if this means SA is really concerned with Beli's health and/or play? Concerned about Danny being tired?

[DesignatedT]

Guy can score. I was a fan of his when he entered the league but then he just kind of fell off. I'll be interested in seeing him on the court

Right on that. Didn't make sense unless they thought JGreen was going to stick on the roster. They were going to have to pay Daye either way, and now it reduces the payroll that can come back in a deal by 1.5x his contract.

[Dverde]

Maybe there is thought of trading Cojo and this guy is his replacement, the third string point.

[Richie]

Found, yes. Signed, no.

The Spurs clearly would rather have the roster spot to try out D-League players than try to package Daye in a trade. That spot is also available for a bought-out veteran if it comes to that.

A distinction without a difference IMO. You can't 'find' a Danny Green without bringing them in, seeing them in NBA games and analysing their fit and work ethic. Remember we cut Green twice before he stuck on the roster, and before Green we looked at Gee, Temple etc...

[Darius Bieber]

Why do we keep messing around with these 10-day contract players? It has never worked out...... Ala Pops Mensah Bonsu, Melvin Sanders, etc..

[ohmwrecker]

Meh.

[Budkin]

His career high is 31pts (8 3PM) vs San Antonio on 12/8/10 :lol

http://www.nba.com/warriors/news/recap_120810.html

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Soooooo, not Glen Rice Jr?... oh, and the spurs are still dickin' around... And Ayers is still on the team... And Bonner... And now J. Green can go anywhere else. Greatest front office in the league.

[benjirh]

Couple things,

Williams is not a PG - at least not from what I have seen. So this does not replace Joseph or Parker.

This is spot #15 - we are not talking about a rotation guy, we are talking about a guy who is just trying to get a look and push the other players on the team at practice, so let's not flip out at the name that is currently keeping that seat warm. It will change at least one more time by June 1.

[SpurPadre]

Well, maybe he can give the team tips on how to defend Curry since he played with him for two seasons...not that the team needs any.

[Texas_Ranger]

if this was 2010 I'd be excited

[ace3g]

6'6 SG/SF

[heyheymymy]

Williams will wear No. 55 for the Silver and Black.

I think he and Ayres will be working on ally-oops during practice.

[LakerHater]

Who, anothr project!

[ThaBigFundamental21]

This guy's career has just been odd. His rookie year he averaged 15 ppg and every year after he just got worse. He can score or at least he could. He isn't great at anything else. I think he was averaging 16 ppg in the D League which is sad considering he scored 15 ppg in the NBA as stated above. Didn't he set the Division 1 scoring mark? Not sure what the Spurs are looking for here. He isn't a young guy anymore either.
I don't see a lot of upside

With Daye being cut this is going to be a full MLE year to a vet who gets bought out in terms of improving this roster. I don't see how the Spurs swing a worthwhile trade.

Just my diatribe anyway.

[21209]

He'll be gone as quickly as Shannon Brown was last year in a few weeks.

is actually just 6'4"

[Ice009]

Daye could always be cut if the team found a Danny Green or James Johnson. He can't always be traded.

Didn't the Spurs have James Johnson in last off-season (2013) for a workouts and then passed on him. They can't even find a James Johnson even if he's staring them in the face.

I've was very interested in him at the time when I heard about them bringing him in, I thought, great, they're actually looking for a backup to Kawhi. I wonder why they never signed him and gave him a chance? That's pretty much the last time I recall the Spurs taking a look at a legit SF (Height wise).

[rudwick]

Finally, our Nando de Colo replacement!

[TMTTRIO]

hopefully they'll use this to rest Manu for several games

[tholdren]

Put him in to let him shoot corner 3's for greens pussy ass tired bitch

[outmap]

Marco Belinelli 1.1 or Gary Neal 2.0

[ElNono]

I thought he was fantastic... superb form on that 3 point shot, just a shame it missed. Damn, FO stealing another gem.

[MaNu4Tres]

Eww.

Lefty version of the bad Roger Mason without the defense.....oh wait nvm.

[therealtruth]

He's a SG/SF. He's as much a PG as Danny Green is.

[Manu-of-steel]

The way he shoots is Hardenesque.

[adonis827]

He is 6 4 about the size of Gary Neal. Too small to be an SF.

Didn't quite impress me when he played in the Philippines. I would rather have Marquis Blakely lol

Did he, really?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

If a spurs scrub has a talent and the facts are there to back it up, will he make a sound?

On the other hand if the summer league mvp beasts on you, then suddenly becomes a free agent. As you search for a 2/3 shooter. Can you hear it?

[ChumpDumper]

Did he, really?Over 500 of them. Decent percentages too.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Chump, the idea of you being a d league watching evaluator of young talent sickens me.

[ChumpDumper]

Chump, the idea of you being a d league watching evaluator of young talent sickens me.Why do simple facts bother you so?

Glen Rice Jr. couldn't get his shot off in the NBA.

Reggie Williams could.

[Chinook]

It makes sense that Pop may want to rest Green for a game or two before or even during the RRT. I would have preferred someone who could play both the two and three like Green, but it is what it is.

What's Vander Blue doing?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

You place more value on a near 30 scrub who made some shots a long time ago? Than the summer league mvp who just balled on our bertans, ljc-less summer squad, this summer?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Why do simple facts bother you so?

Glen Rice Jr. couldn't get his shot off in the NBA.

Reggie Williams could.

Because the fact is one guy is an old bum who most of the league cares less about. And the other guy is a young question mark who we've seen have an ability to make semi-relevant shots?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

The most important fact. One that you of all people should appreciate.

[Mel_13]

You place more value on a near 30 scrub who made some shots a long time ago? Than the summer league mvp who just balled on our bertans, ljc-less summer squad, this summer?

The summer league MVP has been available to 29 NBA teams for nearly a month. He's still in the Dleague. So it appears that none of the 30 NBA teams are placing much value on that summer league performance.

Williams is 28, while Rice is 24, so it's not like comparing some decrepit corpse to a kid.

Williams is a corpse. His career is over. He got passed for whatever reason, long ago. He is a bum. There's simply more savory prospects. Call me an agist, but 4 years matters. Especially in an end of bench player. They gotta have potential and time. And Williams simply has less time.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

What relevant NBA shots has Rice made?

You're seriously gonna stand firm on the old scrub who has actually hit a three in the league being worth more than a kid who hasn't been given the fair shake? That's weak. Rice jr is williams, except one is getting the nod while the other should be. It's topsy turvy!

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I haven't seen either williams or rice jr make an actual nba shot. I'll bet on the younger dude I saw fing wreck during summer league. I must be drunk.

[Chinook]

Probably aren't looking at this 10-day as a prospect. Rather, they just want a body. Rice having more potential means little, and Williams having experience means a lot.

Would I rather see a prospect in garbage time? Yes. Wouldn't rather see one start in a real game, though.

[ChumpDumper]

I haven't seen either williams or rice jr make an actual nba shot.Well, thanks for admitting you don't watch Spurs games. Williams made many shots against the Spurs.

Nba gms are concrete junkies just like chump and ex. The spurs are no different. They're all youth and potential ignoring blockheads. It is insane to defend the value of some scrubby nobody against what we've all seen glen rice jr do this summer. If you can't see that, you are blind.

[ChumpDumper]

Dude, what relevant shots has williams made?Hundreds of them.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Well, thanks for admitting you don't watch Spurs games. Williams made many shots against the Spurs.

He is a nobody. I don't pay attention to nobody's. I leave that to other nobody's. You argue like a nobody. You completely miss the point, because you are zero-ing in on nothing.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Hundreds of them.

His shots were nothing, in a time that has been forgotten.

Bruce Bowen was older than Williams is now when he finally stuck in the NBA.

The Spurs have three players on their roster that are younger than Rice. The facts do not support your rant.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Probably aren't looking at this 10-day as a prospect. Rather, they just want a body. Rice having more potential means little, and Williams having experience means a lot.

Would I rather see a prospect in garbage time? Yes. Wouldn't rather see one start in a real game, though.

Get rice some experience. Why roster any body when you can roster somebody. Potential means more than experience. Anybody can get experience. Nobody's don't have potential.

[ChumpDumper]

He is a nobody. I don't pay attention to nobody's. I leave that to other nobody's. You argue like a nobody. You completely miss the point, because you are zero-ing in on nothing.So Glen Rice jr. is less than nobody by your definition.

Why pay attention to him?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Bruce Bowen was older than Williams is now when he finally stuck in the NBA.



The Spurs have three players on their roster that are younger than Rice. The facts do not support your rant.

They of course support yours if you use them like a block head. They are adding a bum instead of a prospect. Use a fact that matters. Actually just agree. It's okay to knock the spurs. I swear the world won't end. It won't make you less of a fan. It actually means more.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

So Glen Rice jr. is less than nobody by your definition.

Why pay attention to him?

He has more potential. He is younger. He has work that i'm actually familiar with.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

So Glen Rice jr. is less than nobody by your definition.

Why pay attention to him?

Also, wtf?

[Chinook]

Potential means more than experience.

Nope. Spurs only care who plays well for the next nine days. Potential means nothing beyond that.

[Mel_13]

They of course support yours if you use them like a block head. They are adding a bum instead of a prospect. Use a fact that matters. Actually just agree. It's okay to knock the spurs. I swear the world won't end. It won't make you less of a fan. It actually means more.

It is an indisputable fact that the Spurs have 3 players on their roster that are younger than Rice. It's also fact that 29 teams have passed on Rice since Washington waived him. Finally, it's a fact that Washington had him for two years and was unwilling to guarantee the remaining portion of a league minimum contract in order to keep him under team control.

[ChumpDumper]

He has more potential.How do you quantifiably support that?
He is younger.Birth date seems to be the sole criterion you use for player evaluation.
He has work that i'm actually familiar with.Since you have never seen Williams play at all, this does not work in Rice's favor.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Also, wtf?

You can't gotcha me on this. You're defending a bum with a game only a nobody could love. Vs just agreeing that the spurs are dickin around by not picking up a dude that has clearly performed well against some slightly relevant form of spurs basketball.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Man, you are sidestepping the point. And I don't have the effort or time to sit here and debunk every pointless fact in tideous measure. The point is the spurs are filling a valuable roster spot with a corpse. While a real life player sits undiscovered. I really don't see the point in dickin around with unnecessary facts.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Nope. Spurs only care who plays well for the next nine days. Potential means nothing beyond that.

Whats the point in signing a player with no potential?

You can't gotcha me on this. You're defending a bum with a game only a nobody could love.

You may want learn the difference between undiscovered and unwanted.

[Baam]

Rice Jr is a much better prospect, the reason isn't related to bball but his personnality, once bitten twice shy, Pop is afraid to take a chance on a kid with some personnality after the SJax fiasco.

[Mel_13]

Rice Jr is a much better prospect, the reason isn't related to bball but his personnality, once bitten twice shy, Pop is afraid to take a chance on a kid with some personnality after the SJax fiasco.

:lol

1. There has been no argument that Williams is a better prospect.

2. Are the other 28 teams afraid of Rice's personality?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

How do you quantifiably support that?Birth date seems to be the sole criterion you use for player evaluation.Since you have never seen Williams play at all, this does not work in Rice's favor.

He has more potential because he is younger with a hellofa performance against the "team." He has a body that can ball and only needs more experience to easily match the nothing that i've ever seen from williams.

Williams might be good. Fine. But I don't care. Id have to dig to figure it out. Rice was killin us. I saw it. No need to dig at all. He's younger. He's a free agent. I don't care why the wiz cut him. I imagine its cause theyre too stupid to play porter and rice over webster and butler. Because butlers proven experience is just soo valuable. But the thing is the guys are over the hill. Its young blood time. You draft em, play em. Put the old guys out to pasture. Unless the old guy is pierce, duncan, even a gortat type. But rasual butler? Reggie williams? Come on man, these guys are total wtf's?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Williams scored 31 points on the actual San Antonio Spurs.

On dick jefferson? It is so long ago, it doesn't matter. Let it go. Grjr just beasted on our youngest most hopeful.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

You may want learn the difference between undiscovered and unwanted.

Buy low, sell high. I guess you couldn't buy any lower than Williams. But what's the expected sell point? Vs rice?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Rice Jr is a much better prospect, the reason isn't related to bball but his personnality, once bitten twice shy, Pop is afraid to take a chance on a kid with some personnality after the SJax fiasco.

If pop keeps sjax, we beat the heat the first go round.

[ChumpDumper]

On dick jefferson?No.
It is so long ago, it doesn't matter. Let it go.Right. Manu is retired now.
Grjr just beasted on our youngest most hopeful.No, he didn't.

Rice is scoring less and shooting worse from the three in an offense designed exclusively for three point perimeter shots. There are simply better players who are getting called up before him. Williams is one of them.

[ElNono]

Rice Jr just isn't a Spurs project, and they had the chance to draft him and did not, which to me, it's indicative they just didn't want him. Williams isn't likely a project either, just filler to rest some of our guys in garbage time.

Who is the better prospect or has the better future is immaterial, since the Spurs have made no indications that they're currently looking for a project. They already have Anderson for that.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Ok, chump. You win this round. Williams is gonna be great. Rice jr sucks and will never turn it around. It really doesn't matter cause we'll just get another 10 day or another tmac. The spurs win ships so nothin matters. I don't use facts. I'll always ve the drunk idiot of spurstalk. Go warriors.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

The spurs have been little girls ever since they traded dennis rodman. I do hate the spurs for that. And I hate them for any move that has nearly the same stench. And I hate that they have success being weak overbearing women. I hate what it says about society and tge world. I hate that it brings comfort to your tight vagina chump. I love the spurs and basketball. And obe day i'm gonna bring my philosophy to the basketball world and tear yours up.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

If Williams was worth a damn, I wouldn't care how old he is. He is a bum.

[Mel_13]

Buy low, sell high. I guess you couldn't buy any lower than Williams. But what's the expected sell point? Vs rice?

16 players have been called up from the DLeague in January. Rice is not one of them. Even at the extremely low price of a 10 day contract.

Against the same level of competition, 3 point FG%:

Rice: 34%

Williams: 49%

[ChumpDumper]

If Williams was worth a damn, I wouldn't care how old he is. He is a bum.You've never seen him play.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

It doesn't matter.

I have seen rice playHow can you compare Rice to a player you have never seen play?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Mojo isn't a stat. If you don't have it, you can't beat it. Its the reason Bonner and Ayers suck, stat regardless. It's the reason Pop wins anyway. It's why Kawhi will get his. It's why Kobe got his. It's why Manu and Tony are the big three and Timmy is Timmy D. It's why i don't care about Williams. It's why Rice is better. It's why you can't figure it all out. It's why the warriors and hawks are a real threat. It's why the love trade was the new cav killer. It's why dwight howard is shaq light. It's what the wizards didn't see. It's what's killing the pacers worse than any injury. It's why drunks and addicts self destroy in this world. It's why we think politics and taxes suck, but we don't like to talk politics. It's probably where bruno went. It's so simple, it hides in plain sight. It's the reason i'm right and you just won't admit it. You either have it, or you hover it.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

No free agent has more mojo than rice, imo.

[ChumpDumper]

So you haven't seen Rice play any games this season either.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Unless you come with something ridiculous like shaq.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

He isn't playing where the mojo is.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

The stats don't matter. Stats on cold pizza say it's unedible. You gotta put the thing in an oven.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

A raw cold pizza

[DrunkTXLabrat]

No I haven't seen him play, this year. I don't much enjoy watching cold pizza sit on a counter top. That's been my problem watchin the spurs lately, tbh. I wanna eat a hot unhealthy meat lovers. I get teased with J Green on the court with Bonner and Ayers. No wonder the kid gets cut. That's putting the pizza in the oven, with an unlaced new balance in the middle of it.

[ChumpDumper]

No I haven't seen him play:tu

[DrunkTXLabrat]

That's the best gotcha you've got. And it's as weak as trading rodman for perdue.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I've seen just as much as you. Cause you don't "see" what really matters.

[ChumpDumper]

That's the best gotcha you've got.That's pretty much the best I could possibly have.

You admit to not seeing him play.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I saw the summer league game. I know he can ball. Did you see that game?

[ChumpDumper]

I saw the summer league game. I know he can ball. Did you see that game?Yes. And after. He might be able to stick in the NBA at some point, but he isn't the top D-League prospect at this point. It's that simple.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Yes. And after. He might be able to stick in the NBA at some point, but he isn't the top D-League prospect at this point. It's that simple.

Why is that one darn impressive performance not enough? Is williams hot hand really that much more impressive to you?

[ChumpDumper]

Why is that one darn impressive performance not enough?Because it's just one darn performance.
Is williams hot hand really that much more impressive to you?For what the Spurs need? Absolutely.

Williams wouldn't be my first choice for a call up, but he's better than Rice at this point. That said I wouldn't have complained if Rice had gotten the call. These are just tryouts.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Im coolin down. But it was a playoff game. The shots were clutch. And the kid was playing for his big breakout. I felt like he earned it. I think the breakout chance shoulda lasted all season. Through slump and heat. Through webster and butler. They somehow cut him, how are the spurs not first in line? That's all im tryin to point out. That was one darn impressive performance! Maybe im coming off as harsh on williams, who I've never seen. But what I really intend is we should be higher on rice. I dont care what kinda slumpy look he's been having in places unseen. He's clutch.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I think clutch gets better with age and experience, under Pop. But Pop doesn't take the young piece of clay sitting right under his nose. He takes an old clunky hot hand. Calls it a try out and for a role. I want to see a real try out for a guy who's earned a breakout chance.

[TD 21]

Too many are reading too much into this one. He's a lesser version of Belinelli and with the team struggling mightily offensively again and lacking wing depth in general, he makes sense in the short term. He has virtually no chance of lasting the season, but that's besides the point.

I still think they're waiting for Kirilenko to get bought out post deadline and that, with Prince almost certainly Clippers bound, they figure to have a good chance.

[ohmwrecker]

The spurs have been little girls ever since they traded dennis rodman. I do hate the spurs for that. And I hate them for any move that has nearly the same stench. And I hate that they have success being weak overbearing women. I hate what it says about society and tge world. I hate that it brings comfort to your tight vagina chump. I love the spurs and basketball. And obe day i'm gonna bring my philosophy to the basketball world and tear yours up.

You hate that they have monster success doing it in a way that is opposite of your "philosophy", making you, uh WRONG. :lol

[benjirh]

is actually just 6'4"

Says, who? Almost ever site has him listed at 6'6. Where is your number coming from?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

You hate that they have monster success doing it in a way that is opposite of your "philosophy", making you, uh WRONG. :lol

I like the basketball, it's the choice of players on the deep bench. And some of the rotations that I hate. It doesn't make me wrong. It makes me look wrong. There's nothing I can do to immediately fix or exploit it. But you'll see, one day.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Pop has an ugly flaw. You Pop suckers can refuse to see it, all you want. It doesn't make it disappear.

[jjktkk]

Pop has an ugly flaw. You Pop suckers can refuse to see it, all you want. It doesn't make it disappear.

You're "ugly flaw" is you can't evaluate NBA players worth a shit. But like you said in a earlier post, "there's

[100%duncan]

Mojo isn't a stat. If you don't have it, you can't beat it. Its the reason Bonner and Ayers suck, stat regardless. It's the reason Pop wins anyway. It's why Kawhi will get his. It's why Kobe got his. It's why Manu and Tony are the big three and Timmy is Timmy D. It's why i don't care about Williams. It's why Rice is better. It's why you can't figure it all out. It's why the warriors and hawks are a real threat. It's why the love trade was the new cav killer. It's why dwight howard is shaq light. It's what the wizards didn't see. It's what's killing the pacers worse than any injury. It's why drunks and addicts self destroy in this world. It's why we think politics and taxes suck, but we don't like to talk politics.

Pop and the Spurs five titles makes you DEAD wrong. The minor side effect is that you also look wrong. Actually BEING wrong has that funny side effect.

[spurraider21]

did i really just read through a thread where DrunkTXLabret argued that a player he hasn't seen play (Rice) should have been picked up instead of another player he hasn't seen play (Williams)?

:lol

I feel like Alice at the tea party. It's all of your unbirthdays. You got Williams. And you don't even care.

Hey chump you hate rice so much this year, post vid of some of the worst bricks. Why don't y'all point out to real facts. Spurs won 5 makes me wrong.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I am cool. Ex had it coming. Bring it back ex. He's a wing, with a shot. I've never seen him cause he's not worth a look. That inch and half mean anything to his defense? So he can't guard 3's? Stop piss matchin, get to the beef.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

....and you never saw him play one second after that.

Didnt need to. I kept an eye on his fantasy stats through the beginning of the season. Waited for him to be a sleeper pick up. Didnt see stats, fair enough. You know what I saw. Rasual reggie williams butler. Knew the full story, right there. You don't have to watch everything. Have some faith. The guy is a head case being mind gamed. He looks bad. Its a slump.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

His potential is higher. Slumps and hot hands aside. He's better, at a younger age.

[ChumpDumper]

How do you know he's better? You've only seen Rice once and you've never seen Williams at all.

Pro tip: If you want to be a GM, you need to actually watch basketball players play basketball.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Williams is what turns into because guys like you just can't get enough rasual butler and reggie whatsisname

[DrunkTXLabrat]

[DrunkTXLabrat]

I suppose you miss the point that pop is too hard on his young players. And it extends to rc only adding sour dull rotating door roster spot players to appease. And the whole scene wastes a roster spot and minutes that could be spent on any stasher to be developed. Am I right? Why not? Also for fun, there is a perfect correlation to my view on socialism. Feel free to aimlessly elaborate towards that.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Americans are like the trex in Jurassic park. We don't want be fed. We have to hunt. Being that we're human and not beast, we can adapt to intellectual design. But i'm arguing that the design doesn't fairly appease the instinctual need for the hunt. And overly appeases the intellectual evolutionary gift that has shifted nature. Socialistic covering of weak ass being a strong indicative symptom.

I doubt many people viewing the 'Spurs forum' section want to see or read a politicial discussion. However if you'd like to take it to PM, I'd be happy to oblige.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

The overly appeasing of evolution is more dangerous than any instinctual desire to hunt. It will produce stat and fact quoting wienies who miss the point. Ignoring the many other problems. It misses the encouragement of instinctive nature that points toward the obvious. Mojo!

[DrunkTXLabrat]

If it's relevant to the discussion that williams is a nobody, sight unseen. I don't care what spurstalk posters care to see or not. Is what you bring relevant? Have you been reading, or just being mean?

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Basketball is art imitating life. That may be more than you can handle. So keep in mind. I know how to appropriately appeal to your evolutionary and instinctual gifts. And it means I can get away with not watching the dud or the stud, lately or directly. And I can convey the difference.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Rice rice was because i actually am drunk

[DrunkTXLabrat]

And i might even drive home not because I wanna get home but because I like the idea of possibly killing somebody and myself. As stats say. Not because of the actual need to get home. That's igborable.
