Well alot of questions still need to be answered before we can put the names to stone. Is manu healed, can Ian play center, can Hill be a backup pg, has Williams matured, is Haislip as good as advertised?

Jeff McDonald posted this tonight about Marcus:
So he is under contract with the Spurs for training camp....Quote:

This is how I see it going down. Just a guess though.
Parker/Hill/Williams
Ginobili/Mason
Jefferson/Finley
Duncan/Blair
McDyess/Mahinmi/Bonner
Reserves: Hairston, Haislip, ?
If the Spurs keep Williams, that's a lot of backcourt combinations you can throw out there.
with Parker, Ginobili, Hill, Mason and Williams all able to play PG (at least for short stretches), that backcourt could be the most versatile the Spurs have had.
Ok, after further consideration, I am now officially on the Hairston bandwagon. I've seen improvements with each passing game and he's got great potential. Every time he shoots now, I expect it to go in.
Let's not forget that he was waived twice by the Spurs, once by the Clippers and once by the Bobcats in his short career. He's made real improvements since he was drafted, but he wasn't a good draft pick. If he's able to stick in the NBA it's because he's worked his ass off to improve.Quote:

So I was just thinking about Marcus and how little I know about him. Would anyone be kind enough share some info/highlight videos?
