He sucked. I was so wrong about this guy and I wish the Spurs never signed him. We could have signed Rashad McCants to the minimum. LOL!
how do WE know he sucked?
Simply getting the uusual treatment reserved for most Spurs rookies..
i would wanna ask pop about theo b4 haislip
I haven't given up on him yet... if he stays professional and gets more aggressive in practices we may see some of him :)
You could throw Theo in the starting line-up to rest Dice.
In b4 the people "But but but Duncan needs a big with a shot to space the floor so he can post", stfu Duncan's go-to move is a 15-ft jumper these days.
i have a feeling if we see this guy at somepoint it's either because it's something good or something bad. if the Spurs are kicking ass and starting to beat the teams they are supposed to beat by 20, we'll see whaty he's capable of in trash time. and who knows, something may come of it. OTOH, if he playing it could mean someone else is sucking so bad he's our alternative. obviously, i'm hoping it's the former. one because it's saying something about the strides our team has taken and, secondly we get to see what this athletic beast is made of.
Haislip was never that good to begin with. This guy got too much hype on this site.
I think the guy gets in the rotation on last year's team. Right now the bench players ahead of him the depth chart give Pop little reason to look his way: Blair (admittedly still inconsistant) is showing flashes, and Bonner is having a career year (or is playng for a contract for you cynics).
There's a reason he was rotting away in Europe and not in the Association. He's not very good. He was signed as a cheap flier, and very cheap insurance.
Injury insurance.
At this point we still are a mediocre team. We are getting killed by teams with any size. Haislip deserves some PT to at least get a hand up against some of these taller teams. It seems everybody else goes 6-9 to 6-11 at three positions and Pop tries to run small. He started this crap after he saw Nellie do it with Dallas and it has never served us well. Talk about being stubborn.
Haislip happened.
Or maybe it should go Tim, Dyess, Bonner, Blair and Ratliff happened.
Since those things happened to SJax & Raja Bell does that mean they sucked too?
SJax almost spent an entire year on the bench in New Jersey, while Raja Bell signed with the Spurs but never actually played an official game for them.
But I digress...I mean you have your "own" definition and all.
Gist is bette than Haislip. And Gist is in Russia.
Did you guys actually watch Haislip in preseason?..
he made Bonner look like David Robinson on defense..
Simple. Haislip sucks. People were expecting too much from him.
I think Ian is a better question. However, Blair are Bonner are on a roll so it's a mute point for the moment. However, Ian's athletic ability is potentially useful and there's no way he's as bad as Haislip. He has one effective post move and could potentially help on defense. They should get their money out of him. Freezing him out seems vindtictive to me, partly because the FO was hoping for an all star or nothing. I think he's more than nothing but not an all star.
whos haislip !?!? http://www.euroleague.net/rs/18317/2...ip-unicaja.jpgoh yeah that guy shit i dont know
I told all fans here he sucked. I TOLD YOU. Did you believe me? NO! You called me a liar. And you believed that IDIOT Mountainballer. I told you Mountainballer lies and has never in his life seen a Euroleague game.
But no.........................the fans here believed his crap and called me a liar. I said over and over Haislip sucks and no one believed me. Over and over fans said crazy shit like "he dominated in Europe", "he was one of best players in Europe" and as I said he was never ever NEVER considered anything but an average PF at BEST.
But noooooooooooooooooooooooyou fools had to trust that LIAR Mountainballer. So when does Mountainballer get banned? Is that not fair? Since I got banned because of fighting the lies of idiots like him when I was the one all along telling the truth. Just like Popovich admitted I told the truth about Bourousis?
Why was I so wronged here?
