Poor McClinton

They said that he was in the group at 37. Not that he WAS the group at 37. If Blair had not been there then somebody else from that group (more highly rated than McClinton) could have been selected. I think that they like liked McClinton, but I'm sure they had guys more highly rated than him...just like Nando De Colo (who was in that same group at 37) was apparently rated lower than McClinton.

13MPG for the guy is a joke, he should be getting at least 25, and be told to let the shots fly, instead of being scared to miss. I guarantee as soon as he hits a couple, he'll starting getting hot

Perhaps Jack's potential as a rotation player with the Spurs is predicated upon Marcus Williams working as a point guard.

If Williams is playing point guard or point forward whatever it would be called, Jack then would not be a liablity. If Mason or Ginobili is the 2, then Jack guards the opposing point.

Hill was rebounding and defending like crazy. He was also getting to the hoop and he wasn't turning the ball over at all. Hill couldn't score but he at least looked like an NBA player.

McClinton looks like a fan who wandered onto the court.

Yeah,he really looks like me now. :rollin
And Austin would probably strong enough to enter the DL finals again if they had McClinton.:lmao

There is almost no such thing as a mistake with the 53rd pick in the draft. Relax.

lolol.

I would just like to see the guy get 25 minutes+. If he fails with heavy minutes, then I'm ready to book his ticket to Austria.
:flag:

Guy had another shitty game. Don't even know if he'll be sent to the Toros now. Poor dude.

Jack's Twitter:
"Finally hit a damn shot. Hot damn!"

lol, McClinton's a funny guy. They said one fan was cheering hard when he scored. I wonder if it was a family member.

:(

No, they won't let him walk completely. He'll be on the Toro at WORST case scenario.

I'm telling you it was very loud when he made the basket. The announcers even commented on it. They said it was a whole row right behind the Spurs bench. I'm glad he finally hit one.:lol

I would like to see him play in a more organized environment like the Toros and see how he responds.

McClinton will probably be sent to the Toros... along with Gist...

OK..i have not seen any SL games. But I kinda knew going into this thing that McClinton couldn't really create for himself, but he can shoot. He is not somebody who is going to dominate at all. But he can be a good ROLE player. Think about it? All the players that are doing extremely well are the players that can really make a name for themselves in the NBA. Now I understand Jack is not doing shiiiit.

But the Spurs didn't draft him to see if he played well together with Geroge Hill and the rest of the SL scrubs. He was drafted casue he was one of the best if not the best shooters in the NCAA.

Duncan,Parker,Ginobili will create easy open 3's for this kid. Not saying he will make an impact on this team, but I wont count him out just yet. FO has to see what he can do playing with teammates who can set him up....AKA Eddie House.
