Nice scoop for the long off-season

Overall impact can be summarized in two words: due diligence

Cya Boban!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




:depressed

[daledondale]

A scrub. No thanks.

[MultiTroll]

He's a better fit then Baynes because?.....
Money the only issue?

[littlecoyotecoin]

Does he have two feet?

[Hemotivo]

he's a really good center (in FIBA)

Hopefully makes the squad over Jimmer tbh.

[bigfan]

He doesn't look all that big on his videos, looks more like 6'8. Meh.

[testies]

hes a pf

I for one am extremely tired of undersized Spurs centers.

:lol wants a undersized, one dimensional combo guard

The Spurs have been playing big ball for several seasons now.

I for one am extremely tired of your shit takes.

[NameLess Scrub]

Scola just dropped 19pts 9reb 6ast in the Tuto Marchand cup vs Brazil..

This guy is not playing there.. how good is he in FIBA? In any case, doubt he would play in SA.

[G-Dawgg]

He's looks to me like an Aron Baynes with a bit of a jump shot. And at 6'10, 260lbs he's big enough to bang at the center position. I'm a bit curious...

[LittleCriminal]

This dude can shoot da 3 too..

[LittleCriminal]

Id also like to add hes an upgrade over Ayers...

[Spurtacular]

I don't like his name. It's like he can't make up his mind whether he's Italian or German.

[T Park]

Tackling practice dummy in practice. Will be lucky to play in more than two pre season games

Curious too
Looks big enough, looks skilled enough (of course you could probably make me look good in a you tube video....on second thought maybe not)
Why at his age has he not made it to a bigger stage....

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

One foot.

And he still dominated in the Serbia League finals and was player of the tournament. And it wasn't his foot, he had a hairline fracture in his ankle. BIG DIFFERENCE. If it was his foot, it probably would be a career ender for someone his size.

[Fireball]

Aron Baynes had a jump shot IMO

Aron Baynes (as much I really like how much he improved from coming from nowhere) was undersized for a center.

Not at all.

Don´t like him, Scola used to destroy him single handeddly with no other help playing for Argentina. Plus he whines a lot and is not Spurs Smart.

6'10".... that sounds to me to be an undersized center.

6-10 without shoes is not undersized at all. Like wow.

Serbian league. I'm hopeful, but it's not the NBA.

Ankle vs foot. I was being too general with the tongue in cheek humor. But, the distinction between the two isn't quite as reassuring to me as it is to you. Are you callng it? His injury, only being an ankle, and not a serious problem like a FOOT, is healed and he's got the Cowboy clean bill of health?

[ceperez]

Maybe it isn't obvious, but we are talking about the NBA here.

Let's talk about legitimate centers. Let's just look at the Western Conference:

Dwight Howard - 6'11"
Marc Gasol - 7'1"
Andrew Bogut - 7'0"
DeAndre Jordan - 6'11"

oh... maybe you are talking about non-playoff teams....

Rudy Gobert - 7'1"
DeMarcus Cousins - 6'11"
Robert Sacre - 7'0"

who the hell has a center listed at 6'10"??????

[Chinook]

Maybe it isn't obvious, but we are talking about the NBA here.

Yes, which means you have to take two inches off the heights of then players. So Howard is like 6-9 compared to Baynes' 6-10. Same goes for Jordan. Gasol and Bogut are both slightly taller. Cousins is the same height. Sacre sucks, and While Gobert is taller and longer, he doesn't have the same girth (a very big part of size).

Anyway, finding a handful of taller guys doesn't make Baynes undersized. He's taller than the average center. Please don't derail another thread repeatedly arguing a point on which you're clearly wrong.

LOL "listed at"?

hakeem was only 6'10''
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakeem_Olajuwon)
^ clicky link


undersized centers are the ben wallaces and dejuan blairs and malik rosees of the NBA. 6'8'' guys with long arms who make their living hustling and outmuscling people.

shawn bradley meets your height requirement. was he "legitimate"?

You are dumb as a fucking stump if you consider that an undersized center.

Dwight Howard was an inch and a half shorter and 20 lbs lighter than Baynes according to his pre-draft measurements.:lol

Quite a few actually, BTW Dwight's barley 6'10 in shoes (listed at 6'10 1/4).

Ben Wallace was 6'9 and he was a multiple DVOP.

Here is a photo of the team, you can tell that Baynes height is somewhere between Ayres (listed at 6'9") and Splitter (listed at 6'11"):

In fact, it looks like he's about the same height as Matt Bonner (also listed at 6'10").

Yeah... isn't Matt Bonner undersized for a center?

Off seasons getting old. When is he working out?
I'm really bored and need something other than continued jimmer speculation....

[buttsR4rebounding]

Aron Baynes (as much I really like how much he improved from coming from nowhere) was undersized for a center.

Aron Baynes was all center. Undersized? In what way?

His height began with a "6", therefore he is "undersized".

Bill Russell was 6'9".

We desperately need a functional stretch four.. this guy is the matt bonner who can actually make shots

He is german-african. Like Dirk's son. Brazilian people use this name a lot, as Spanish and latin americans. Mostly catholic people use it.

Can he play defense? rebound?

Formar spurs Garcia on the team...

yeah, he can post up smaller dudes if they switch on him

he's kinda black, so he at least has some athleticism to play defense

[testies]

I remember a game where he posted up scola pretty good, had to be doubled eventually

[Maddog]

Did he ever work out for the Spurs?

I think he lacks lateral quickness. And blow his knees once or twice. Some years ago some NBA teams were scouting him, Mavs included. If someone goes back to the shitty brazilian league from Europe instead of going to the NBA, surely there's something wrong. But he can fill the Ayers or even Baynes roles easily.

Edit: As Splitter, he never played professionally in Brazil, only in Europe.
