+1. I don't think you can win with all vanilla. Maybe JR would be the jalapeno for our jalapeno sundae. He's also a better shooter and ball handler than Jack.
Stephen Jackson actually had a mid-range game and could pass the ball from time to time when he didn't have a clear shot at the basket.

he got layups against la when he played them![]()
And... he had no consequence in that series. No impact. Scoring 20 for a sub-mediocre team getting run out of the building in the playoffs does not automatically equal a good Spurs prospect.
jackson had a better coach then karl to![]()
Guess the Lakers had to give the points up to someone, but only that someone....hence Denver's loss.
but all that unproven draft picks = better prospect![]()
How can you have a mid range game when you can't dribble the ball? I hated seeing Jack dribble worse than I hated seeing Bowen dribble.
As long as we get to play on one side of the gym we're aces.
sign him and front load the deal
Being a #4 option that can score at will against LA = great Spurs prospect.
he will play better d when duncan is behind him
and bowen shows him a few pointers
Jackson had a mid-range game? Jackson shot threes and drove to the basket when he wasn't turning the ball over. He could play pretty good D and rebound.
Was Finley shutting anyone down? Was Barry? We've had more than a few one way players here in the last 5 seasons.
Ugh. The main value here is that he can put up points during the regular season and play minutes that Manu wouldn't have to.
In this case, yes, absolutely.
I would absolutely take an unproven first round draft pick this year over a proven to be undisciplined and disruptive JR Smith who cannot play defense and does not improve his team. Yes.
jr smith a proven nba scorer that can go for 20-30 points a game for 6 million
or a unproven rookie for almost a million?
who is the better prospect?
jr smith will not force more shots then manu does
jr smith also will get rid open three when they double team duncan
manu's d is not that great either
he see's the passing lanes but usually spurs hide him on one of the worse shotters on the other team
Actually, Jax's dribble was more controlled/compact with the Spurs (1 move and go) than J.R.'s tendency to take multiple dribbles and trying to force the action. Jax was/is more comfortable taking mid-range jumpers than Smith who often steps behind the line when close to 3-point range to take shots or forces the action to the rim in situations where an elbow jumper would suffice.
Is that really your argument? He plays worse defense - in fact, doesn't even care - than two of our players so we should give him all of the MLE?
For the Spurs, or a team that doesn't care how many games it wins?
HE DOES NOT CARE BECAUSE THE FRANCHISE DOES NOT CARE!
The spurs does and people buy into ot
look at boston
kg plays d and all boston players play d now
do you watch basketball?
So who should they sign?
jr smith on the spurs would win plus 60 games
and limit manu minutes to less then 30 minutes a game
