Summer league training camp released signs with Austin.
Helluva of a NCAA player. Most likely, not NBA caliber
who? :lol
sllllllooooooowwww with no length
Would rather have Jimmer.Quote:

If Matt Bonner retires, I wonder he'll unretire his number . . .
Six vowels in his last name. Impressive.
This guy balled out in the NCAAs. Definitely a 15th man type guy if he ever makes the league, but why not give him a shot and see if you can find another body in rest games on the cheap. They will have to sign some minimum guys.
Glorified training camp invite.
This guy was fun to watch during the tourney...
How is it he didn't have to declare for the draft?
The Archdeacon!!!
More like Archon.Quote:

tpark doesn't know shit about basketball..
He was fun to watch during Nova's Title run but zero chance he ever makes an NBA roster imo. Too unathletic and slow-footed, and would be a huge liability on D.
So he makes the spurs roster..Quote:

He is basketball smart and really competes. His size is a limiting factor but he knows how to work open for his shot. Physical defenders with size will give him some trouble. He can certainly shoot with acuity. When your a Big East POY in your junior season, that counts for something.
Dude looks like a shooter. Could see him making the team if he can actually play point. There's little reason to send him to Austin, so keeping him as the third-string while Murray goes to Austin makes sense.
Dude has a good shot but way too unathletic.
2 year deal??? Potential patty insurance???
Only a small portion is guaranteed, similar to Bryce Cotton. Not uncommon for a priority UDFA whom a lot of teams are competing for. Has nothing to do with any of the current PG's.Quote:

But because Arcidiacono is a rookie, the team does not affect cap space at all. It slots right into one of those roster charges. We can glean nothing from this contract, which I guess is just as well since this dude is most likely Austin-bound.Quote:

They have four PGs (and that's if you count Murry and Arcidiacono has PGs when they are really combo-guards), which isn't even remotely abnormal for an off-season roster. In fact, I think they'll add at least one more.Quote:

For his college career he shot 39.7% from the field and 35.8% from three. He's also no spring chicken.Quote:

WAO!! ! This is certainly a Simmons like agreement. They need someone to be ready sooner bc Dejonte is more of a SG and he's raw, needs to develop. I think Chinook is right that they are looking at someone a little bit more mature so they can send Dejonte, the much higher upside, but raw kid to the dleague to work on his game. I wonder about this now bc they scouted Ulis a lot allegedly and were probably ready to take him but couldn't pass up on Murray who has a high ceiling if he can reach it in a few years.Quote:

Hes a control the pace player - he doesn't score. Engergy guy.... I don't know how you take him as a combo.Quote:

I agree, thinking of it you are correct. Nobody is getting shipped out IMO.Quote:

Nevermind...I forgot...this is the same people who think the kid the Spurs just drafted is better than pre-injury Shaun Livingston.:lol
Well I got tired of saying kawhi wouldn't improve any more, and being shit upon, so I'm going to say all spurs picks are going to all time greats until proven otherwise. Kyle,Murray, the French freak, the new big three.Quote:

I remember talking about Dellavedova in the Think Tank putting up 25&11 against Lillard and Weber State. Didn't help getting him drafted :wakeup
You know, you look at a kind of talented, not quite athletic, smart white player on the team and, I can only speak for myself, when it comes to the PG position I think of Stockton.Quote:

I want this kid to come into camp like that. Never change face. Be the setup guy and take your shots when they are the right ones. Do the dirty plays.
Knee someone. Throw a sly foot out on a screener. Grab the back of a roller's jersey for a second and let go. Do those Stockton things and be able to get away with it to even a tenth of what Stockton could do...
You got a place on my team.
bruh... they're not going to move green because of arcidiacono :lolQuote:
