WOOHOO!!!! I hope all 3 make the squad!
Nice. I can't wait to see these guys in summer league!
i never really pay attention to the spurs rookies cause they never really do anything right away, but it seems that these three are getting more attention then spurs rookies usually do......i've never seen pop really talk up the incoming rookies like he has these three guys....... maybe that's a good sign that all three will make the roster
That or Pop's a little desperate.
pops not really the desperate type though, if he was, he'd have blown up this after every time we failed to repeat
Bump.
The team is a little desperate. Yeah.
All 3 are already on the roster on ESPN...
I wonder if he posts this on SR too.
I am at the link.... where is the live video?
Did anyone watch this? Hopefully they put the video up soon.
I thought it was going to be a live feed as it happened...ah well.
It was supposed to be a live feed ... two hours ago.
oh 11 CST... LOL! I live on the west coast.. always forget about that time zone thing... lol!
Yea, the video wasn't working and it was never shown live. We're all gonna have to wait to see it.
It was live and streamed. The press part was pretty brief, it only lasted about 15 minutes.

George Hill comparing himself to Monta Ellis. Then goes on to say he values defense first. Says he doesn't mind bringing Tim and Tony McDonalds as his rookie assignment. They bring up the idea of him backing up Tony, and he slows it down and says he still has to beat Jacque for the spot so he's playing it safe and not automatically envisioning himself as the backup. Says he's ready to take his amount of lumps from Pop and is willing to work at his best to do what Pop says. Says he doesn't have a favorite team. Think players should stay for all 4 years in college. Named Mike Taylor, Mario Chalmers, Wayne Ellington, Danny Green, and Nathan "Jawaki"
Malik Hairston said he got scared when Phoenix drafted because he didn't know what was going on since he didn't workout for them. About 30 seconds later he got a call saying he's gonna be traded to San Antonio, then his excitement shot up. Says he had conversation with Pop on draft night. Says he feels motivated since Pop said he expects him to make the team. Says the feeling of being on a championship team hasn't hit him yet. Says he's out to win in the summer league. Then hypes up Pop as a great coach whose players love him and wants to learn from him. Says his favorite team is the Pistons. Says he didn't feel bad when Horry made that Game 5 three because he loves his clutch shots. Says he thinks he can bring leadership and he's very versatile. Thinks he can be a swingman but he's a true 2 guard.
Haha...how do you pronounce your last name...
Gist shaved his dreads off and grew a beard.
Says he looks forward to playing for the Spurs the most because he wants to learn from the vets. Felt a sigh of relief when he was drafted. Says he's gonna hustle crazy so he can make the roster. Says he values his defense the most. He says Roger Mason is a great guy and they hang out, that he's his "older brother" and that he's a great player and better shooter.
