Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
It's possible the Toros have his d-league rights anyway, but this is a training camp invite. Unless he blows people away it'll be last season's squad plus Anderson.

Neither is making the team.
No one on a full guarantee is getting cut.
Baynes will ultimately sign.
The goods. :toast

Ginobili and maybe Anderson are fine as emergency options offensively, but neither can defend the position. Green can, but if (really, when) Ginobili and Parker get injured or they're given the odd game off, then what?

Doesn't matter. We just need someone off the bench to defend their backup. Cory does that.
Spurs will NOT cut a million dollar (or more) guaranteed deal for a 3rd PG. They have a starter, who will be MUCH fresher this year, and a backup that can both defend the position, along with Green. They will also have Manu, Beli, and KA to run plays.
They really only have to survive Nov, Dec, and Jan until Patty is back.

Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
Green was absolutely legit in SL. Either Ayers is on the chopping block or Pop and RC are fucking stupid.
Cotton wasn't bad, but Green was legit. Beli can run some minutes at 1 if Parker and Cojo need the relief.

Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
I thought this guy looked ok some time ago. He's been thereabouts with us for a season or two.
-
Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
He was decent in SL and was definitely playing the hardest out of any Spur.
Bryce Cotton fucking blows though. Neither of these guys will suit up in the RS imo.

Howard, Gasol, Pekovic. Its not like the 90's. There really aren't that many of them left.

Green has played plenty of Small Forward in his time with the Spurs. Acording to basketball refence he played SF 31 % of the time and 38% in the postseason.

Corey will burn minutes until Patty comes back, plus Beli will fill in if necessary... it's not like what we run is super complicated.

Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
Seems like a good hustle player, go get the ball type player, but not getting in other teammat way like Blair...

Is there a more complex offense in the NBA? Its the age of isoball and mindless high pnr. we include pnr looks while running a set whereas most teams only run a pnr.

This will also be Cory's 4th year. The Spurs keep picking up his options, so me must be doing something right.

Cory is fine. He is a competent player and is entering the time when most PGs really blossom.

Right and when at least some of the scenarios I alluded to unfold, then what? Play Joseph 48 minutes?
I'm not saying they will, just that it shouldn't be ruled out. They should though, for balance/flexibility purposes. Four centers and seven bigs is completely unnecessary. This team has more than enough financial flexibility that the relatively minimal cost shouldn't matter and likely won't or at least will be secondary to them not wanting to swallow their pride.

Belinelli can't play PG. It's not an "if", it's a when necessary. Even in the unlikely event both Parker and Ginobili avoid injury until Mills returns, there's going to be the odd game Pop wants to rest the big three.
