Did you actually watch other real time game clips or do you just watch what people post?Quote:

As for your thought on free throws...it can also work the other way around to an extent....just ask Bruce, or Shaq.

I think Tiago projects as a bench player that plays 10 to 15 minutes per night, and gets you a few hustle points now and then and maybe he grabs a few boards once in a while too. I don't think Tiago is going to develop into anything more than he is right now though. If anything his numbers should drop precipitously once he gets here.
Ehhh.... i dont see it, Sikma was a great shooter, an amazing FT shooter for a big man, and he was much more polished than this Kid....and a much better rebounder.Quote:
I'll tell you who kinda reminds me of...I may be crazy though...Jack Sikma. If he turns out to be similar to Sikma, I'd be very happy with him.
Needless to say however, i would not complain if mr. skinner has a similar career, but i dont think it will happen.
That and I dont think sikma would do well in today's nba, not athletic enough probably

:lol

nothing like changing things around to fit your arguement.
Lovely your hating on the guy before hes played minute 1 though.
There are some "not-so-quick" players that have made a solid career:Quote:

Vlade
Zydrunas Ilgauskas
Perdue
Even our own Fabs
There are probably others.
I think you are under-estimating his abilities.Quote:

It sounds to me you want DRob....well DRob is not coming through the door.

wtf are you talking about?
the kid is 22 years old. not 18
He wanted Josh McRoberts :lmao
The Sixers who are DESPERATE for powerforwards passed over the guy like a million times.
That should tell you something.

Yup, fit him for his walker.
Now I know you don't watch games alot.....if you did you'd see Timmy taking that top of the key jumper...and consistently making it.......this beyond the FT line(15ft).Quote:

its about an 18 20 footer.
But yeah, he can't hit a jumper to save his life.

Sure he could be solid, but he isnt going to be an all star. If you're looking for someone with top end potential in the spurs system than look at Ian Mahinimi, an amazing athlete that's very raw and 2 years younger than splitter
you annoy me Tpark.Quote:

why do you take everything anyone says and go to the extreme with it?
stupid fat troll?
Thats adult.
I never said he was going to be an all-star...geez :rolleyes I would be very happy if he did. I think he could be a solid contributor for the Spurs in the future. If he doesn't pan out....then I'll admit it...I thought the same about Beno and now don't think he needs to be a Spur any longer.Quote:

Of course we all want DRob...but it seems you want every player to be just as good. You want your cake and eat it too.

I may disagree with T Park alot...but he is not a troll....fat? I don't know him personally....maybe compared to Callista Flockhart.
compared to Jim Belushi.Quote:

Maybe it should have stayed there.Quote:

So does the Spurs management suck too for passing over Cherokee Parks errrrrr Josh McRoberts?
i don't get it then, i already described him being a solid contributor, getting hustle points, grabbing a few boards once in a while...that's solid. Maybe he will be slightly better than elson...it wouldnt take much, all he has to do is learn how to stay on the court by not fouling every 5 seconds.Quote:

and im not expecting anything from any pick the spurs get at #28. at that point getting a solid player is really all that matters
