Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
I'm curious to see if it's for 120% or 100% of the rookie scale because it could decide if Spurs are able to carry 13 or 14 players next year.

Jefferson/Gee/Hairston
Duncan/Blair/Bonner
Splitter/McDyess
An insurance big will need to be signed, unless the Spurs just want to pick from the D-League crop and keep a roster spot open.
There is still a lot of off-season to go though.
I'll have...
Tony Parker | George Hill
Manu Ginobili | James Anderson | Gary Neal
Richard Jefferson | Alonzo Gee
Tim Duncan | DeJuan Blair | Matt Bonner
Tiago Splitter | Antonio McDyess
IR 13. Garrett Temple
IR 14. Malik Hairston
IR 15. N/A (Alonzo Gee if we sign a backup SF)

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
Neither of you feel the need for that 6th big* as an insurance?
* 6'11 or taller

I agree in most part here but i assume that antonio will start at the beginning of the season.
Also, bonner will get more minutes than blair and tiago since stretch 4 is important to them. he also knows the system more.

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
Gee and Hairston as your backup SFs is not gonna cut it especially if we want to beat the lakers the spurs need to add more depth.

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
the Spurs need one more SF/shooter combo

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
I want the Spurs to go after Butler or Howard. However, Howard won't be available to play until like December or January.

His body reminds me of Bruce Bowen's...wiry, but strong. He may only be 6'6 (an inch shorter than Bowen), but doesn't he have a decent wingspan? The point I'm getting at...if Bowen could play SF for the Spurs, couldn't Anderson?

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
I'm still unclear as to when Malik Hairston turned into Beno Udrih. Do people realize that he and Gee were teammates last season and Hairston was better?

Perfect this is what i was thinking and to me this seems just right, we do need another big cause if anyone gets hurt right now playing C or PF it throws everything way off, pop should get someone who can block shots and defend the hell out of the paint even if there just one dimensional we dont need our 3rd string bigs to score 10 pts we really need defense

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
Ryan Richards! give the boy a chance, if for no other reason than he would be delighted to play for the Toros with no fuss or expectations.
oh and he'd be cheap.

Partially. $100k.
Hairston OTOH has no guaranteed money in his contract.

Re: Spurs sign James Anderson
hopefully the Spurs were waiting till after they signed Anderson, to see where they would be at the salary cap/luxury tax, before going at a back up SF.

Partial guarantees:
Gee is guaranteed $100K right now (goes up to $200K in Nov). Temple is guaranteed $35K, but that goes up to $110K if he's not waived by Aug 5.
