Who is Roger Mason??? Is he the NEW BRENT BARRY???

[Mr. Body]

To shoot 59% for 2 pt. field goals is nothing short of spectacular, in any setting. To do it as a 6'2" guard is all the more amazing.

They're very positive, but let's not go overboard. His compe ion was mostly poor.

Still the same sized hoop at the same height, on a basketball court.

[Mr. Body]

Whoops, I thought we were still jocking George Hill. Instead we're jocking Roger Mason in this thread.

[Marcus Bryant]

Yeah, I guess you have knocking every Spurs' acquisition covered.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

If we have to limit his minutes so much, is it worth it. Big money players need to be on the floor, I wonder what the F.O. is thinking with regards to Gino...

They're probably thinking if he's healthy they'd have five trophies right now.

But you've convinced me, we should waive him.

I get a chuckle out of ppl pointing out his great FT %, when the guy gets to the line maybe once a game if lucky

How often was he getting to the line in college per minutes played vs. his post-college career?

Spurs fans - STOP worrying about Brent Barry signing with the Rockets

I haven't gotten to say so yet, so I will say it once and let it go.

I miss the Mango Tree!!!!

All right.... Welcome Roger Mason.

Let's not forget he was recruited by Florida. He decided family was more important -- a rare quality among today's youth. And from hearing his interviews and reading comments he has made, he appears to be cut from a different mold and more mature than other players his age coming out of college.

p.s. I like the Mason acquisition. With the league moving towards the small ball concept (Hornets gave us fits), imo it appears the FO is looking for players with the ability to play it, while still being able to defend. Neither Barry, nor Finley nor Horry fit that style anymore, and I suspect Barry wanted more PT.

that's very honest... -))

No, Roger Mason is not the new Brent Barry. Roger Mason is Roger Mason. Its time to move on.

Mason is the new Michael Redd.

Do you like making wild acusations towards me... why are you always such a to me. You are no one special, I don't care how long you have been here. Where did I say waive him, cut him or trade him?????? PLEASE, ONCE AGAIN, IF YOU CAN SHOW ME ONE POST WHERE I SAID THE THINGS YOU SAY ABOUT ME I WILL LEAVE SPURSTALK FOREVER..If you can provide any proof, I will never post again. You said you hate "newbs" like me, well here is your chance to get rid of at least one. All you have to do, is find me a post where I said we should "waive", "trade" or "not re-sign" Manu and I will leave forever.

I posed a question, that if Manu has to have his minutes monitored so heavily, will they look to wait to extend him or give him a big contract...

But please except my challenge, or else quit being a and putting words in everyones mouths. Quit attacking posters, and generally ruining SpursTalk for the "newbs"....The goal is to grow the website for collective Spurs fans, not chase people away...

completely agree - this post should be dedicated to few other individuals as well, who are doing the same thing...

i looked at the news of signing mason and i just dropped my head and nodded in disappointment..

quite frankly tho.. on the bright side.. we are obviously getting younger guys.. this is a start.. im no soothsayer or anything and i hope these acquisitions pan out for us.. honestly ever since the pwnage by splitter and the foul after barry's shot.. every news that came out about the spurs has just been downhill for me..

[Marcus Bryant]

Find another team then.

Harvey Mason used to play drums for Herbie Han .

Thanks for that useless piece of old man trivia.
