What it feels like to be drafted by the Spurs

[Spur-Addict]

Actually it's hilarious. It's our favorite saying on the Blazer board now.

Production still has to be made, we'll see how wide your smile is next may. Future blah, we have blah, none of it matters unless you win. I'm not talking about moral victories, "Oh, Oden didn't play and we we're almost in the playoffs"....I like the Blazers but don't turn into the Lakers.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

I have no answers...only blind love and optimism for the Spurs.

Or wait, was that your job?

Yea that's my job.
Yours is to go cry in the corner like an emo .

And after one day it's old.

Like you.

Congratulations.

Christ, the Spurs need a back up point guard, and they get one, and Spurstalk es.

Props s.

I've posted at SR for a while now and lurked here for the last year before registering. When reading this thread, I thought I was back at SR. I wished they would've been able to get Batum... all the "FO knows best" and "CIA Pop" people say it was a great move because it addressed a need. Bottom line is a guy from a small conference is an even more unknown commodity than someone who played top-level college ball. If it's such a prize to get a guy who's ceiling is "back up NBA point guard", then why didn't they just stick with Darius Washington? Pop must know something we don't know!

I hope he proves me wrong, but I remain skeptical

First off, Washington sucks. his euro team doesn't want him. He got cut from the Toros. That doesn't tell you something?


No one said his "ceiling" was back up point.

Thats the need they addressed.

I don't see why people are making this more difficult than it is.

The CIA Pop mantra has gone far past its shelf life. The Spurs FO are serious laggards at this point at least over what their reputation is. I'm glad we have Hill, but this was a pretty bad draft considering the possibilities.

I brought up the prayer thing because IMO that gives us a slightly better than even chance that he doesn't shoot up topless bars or give rides to wanted felons (sorry, I live in Indy so those are still fresh in my mind).

As for the "Can he play?" we'll find out this summer.

hahahaha
