So now you get to determine what I think is the dumbest thing I've ever seen written on this board?

Like I said, it's not a major issue for the time being, nor is it likely to be addressed, but you can't tell me it doesn't make more sense to have a third healthy PG than a fourth C/seventh big.

He struggled in the playoffs once teams locked in on the scouting report and it was clear he would be a weak link (smart teams anyways, he was fine against the Blazers).
During the regular season he was fine.
We're talking tail end of the bench here, like you said, not going to worry about that. We're already far and away the deepest team in the league.
Re: Spurs Sign JaMychal Green
TD 21 with the "I enjoy arguing about a bunch of shit that doesn't matter" bads per par. You calling anyone dumb is beyond hilarious.

I don't mean playoff pressure, I mean any reasonably quick PG would pick him up full court and smother him.
"Tail end" until the inevitable Parker and Ginobili injuries/odd games off for rest.
You know what I'm saying makes sense, you just don't like that it's coming from me.

benefactor with the "I enjoy butting my fat ass into conversations I have not been a part of and pretending I'm funny" bads per par. You want beyond hilarious? Try a fat, middle aged guy, with a severe anger problem, who's desperate (yet fails) to look and come off as menacing, on a message board.

He looked alright. Lots of his shots went in and out, especially his shots near the basket, which deflated his percentages.

There is no position he can defend. If he were maybe 3 inches taller, you could run him against bench big, but he's too short and slow to defend anyone. His combine numbers were worse than Blair's. I'd pretty much not ever count on him being a Spur. Like Gist, at some point he will likely demand his tender, come to camp and get cut.

Beli has great handles, I really don't get what you're fretting about. The only thing that might be concerning is his defense, but, as I pointed out earlier, it really doesn't matter against 75% of the league.
Also, don't take it personal... you're not the first or last I'll disagree with... it's all good as far as I'm concerned, I know everyone has their opinion...

I go away for a few hours, come back and find that you replied one minute ago. What are the odds?
Anyway, he has a mediocre handle and can't play PG. I'm not really "fretting" about anything really. All I said was, I'd prefer a third healthy PG/the flexibility of a non guaranteed contract over a fourth C/seventh big. I conceded it was a minor issue and unlikely to happen though . . . then the usual band of apologists and idiots that pollute this board proceeded to make a mountain out of a molehill.

I would never suggest you can't think whatever you wish is dumb. But, when someone agrees with you and you think that's the dumbest thing you've ever heard, you might want to step back for a minute and scratch your chin.

With Tiago, Boris and Baynes all playing in the Worlds this summer, the coaching staff might be thinking they'll need some extra rest. Duncan will also probably avoid back to backs. Both Gino and Tony won't play, so while they'll also get their customary rest here or there, it's easier for Pop to run run them a little longer the first 3 months while we wait for Patty. Just speculating here, obviously, but that would be one rationale.
