Giving Brian Wright way too much credit. Also we are stockpiling players who have 0 trade value. After we make these two cuts I wouldnt be surprised we start and end of the season with the same team, including Thad.
I kind of thought the Spurs were stockpiling players with guaranteed deals because they had a trade in the works. I guess I was incorrect in that assumption.

I'll be curious to see how the Spurs try to work Collins into the rotation should he become available before the season is too far along.
But can he already wipe his ass?
My guess is Drew sits more once Collins is ever healthy.
if drew keeps playing like he is now, i absolutely agree. dude has been in the league for several years now and sill can't set a screen without committing a foul.
Moving screens are usually the ball handler’s fault. They have to wait for the screen to be set and stationary. If they don’t the screener will be caught moving into his screen position.
Fun fact: the Mavs had to play their 3rd string Center yesterday and he ted on Eubanks. That just shows you how bad of a player he is
Eubanks showed promises in the pre-season and got praises in this board, but has fallen flat in his face. I think he just needs to settle down. But definitely Zollins would be taking a lot of his minutes as soon as he starts hitting 3pts. Man I can’t believe I’m saying that. I’m okay with stretch 4’s, but C’s hanging in the 3pt lines?![]()
last night was a perfect example of what drew does often-vassell spotted up at the top of the key and as the defender started to move towards him, drew comes up with a full head of steam and drops his elbow into the defender, which is a habit that he can't seem to stop. so, it's not so much that drew is moving as it is that he can't stop using his elbows.
I love Drew... I just feel Jock should get half of his mins.
Ordinarily I'd agree with you, but some of the Spurs players are so raw they don't know how to set screens with a good angle and get set or they actually begin to deliberately move into the defender to knock him off. Some vets can get away with that lean in movement, but a player has to have some ability to disguise it. Drew doesn't.
Quotes from Pop that Zollins won't be ready by Christmas, still only doing light individual activities.
Probably not to the surprise of anyone except Wright and RC.
Lol waiting for this bum to save the day
This!
It amazes me sometimes how much the homers here love their scrubs.
His last healthy season, had one of the best rim defense FG%, and shoots the 3 ball. No one thinks he’s Duncan, just possibly a center that you can play more than situationally. His total guaranteed money for the deal is about $10M, roughly one year of an MLE deal. The guy had surgery in April, so, no, Wright and RC will not be surprised that he’s not ready until 2022.
yea, I vaguely remember a few seasons ago him starting to put it together. Hes a walking injury but maybe spurs get lucky. Obviously we aren't holding are breaths ,and neither is sa on basically a one year deal
If the idea is to be compe ive and try to make playoffs, the money they wasted on McNugget/Zollins should have been used to try to poach John Collins from the Hawks
pretty sure atl would of matched . Probably why sa didnt even try. Spurs apparently did the best they could with that 47 million
You miss every shot you don't take. There's no downside to forcing ATL to match at a higher salary
ATL even got a bargain on Collins as a result of nobody even making the attempt.
no I hear ya. I wanted jc. It def wouldn't of hurt to drive up the price but we know sa doesn't operate like that. Pf needs to be addressed in this off season though
Zollins is an intriguing prospect if he can regain his athleticism.
Therefore????
Zollins will probably not play this season - I don’t think people realize how bad a injury he had it is a pretty complicated surgery with not a high degree that he will not be able to play compe ive basketball
