You could have been there since noon; there wasn't much to see from him. He should be getting the Beno treatment since he turned the ball over twice in a short span. He didn't get tagged for one of them on the box score.
even worse for him. Outside players shouldn't be power forwards.

He had that airball near the end. But he finished with a pretty good FT %. Guess he got those early FT jitters out of his system.
I thought Ian looked pretty good out there. 18 points and 8 rebounds, with only 3 fouls to boot. He missed some rotations, but looked good otherwise defensively. He looks to have added more of a mid-range shot.
Hill looked to attack, but seems he doesn't finish well around the basket. I like his defensive efforts, but seemed to slack at the end. I'm not sure if he was giving, or was just too tired. It seemed as though he had an adrenaline rush going early, but it may have peaked a little too early. He shot wasn't there, but thankfully he was attacking and getting to the line. 17 points on 2 for 9 shooting isn't anything to complain about. He doesn't look to have the vision of a PG, and I am not sure he will be able to make that transition fully. He was also very weak on the trap.
Hairston -- did he play tonight?
Since you keep being all up on Chalmers.

Tolliver was 3-5 from beyond the arc. Maybe we won't miss Barry after all?
segu you have a long way to go before you know something about basketball
I Definately Like Wat I See On This Game I Mean I Know U Cant Go Crazy Ova One Game But Hey It Clears Up A Lil Bit Better Picture
WTF man? He's 6'8", 240. Pop loves having a big man who can shoot play the 4 next to Duncan. He'd fit the role perfectly.
SOMEONE GOT OWNED
AND CHALMERS WAS TICKED HE WENT IN THE SECOND ROUND
Gist and Hairston didn't get a lot of minutes tonight, around 18-19 or so. I wonder if we'll see a lot more of them tomorrow. I'm glad we don't have to wait long.
Well, look on the bright side. Tony can teach him the tear drop and the kid will be money in reserve time.Green and Cuffee took over in crunch time. The only problem with Green is he can't handle the rock..
But dude is nails!
There is something about Hill that was missing... He definitely can handle the ball, but dude is not flashy and he is terrible at the rim... I guess watching Parker destroy people in the paint has made us all spoiled, hill has a long way to go... a llllllllllllllong way....
Spurs 23 fouls, Grizz 38.
First game, so a bit too early to reach a conclusion on any player. Hairston looks like the one draft pick in need of the most work, but if a couple of his Js went down he'd be alright.
Hill looked very smooth out on the court, even though his stats generally don't reflect that. The Grizzlies fouled the out of him tonight. I like the fact that he pulled down so many boards. If he had better shooters on the court he'd probably have about 4-5 assists.
Gist. Really liked what he brought tonight. He might be able to make it in the league as a hustle man. If he could make the transition to the NBA 3 spot he could be a steal.
Ian should be able to crack the rotation next season.
Green showed a little late. Tolliver was able to knock down some shots. Still unlikely they make it in the league.
yeah. 17pts and 8 boards sucks. you're right.Green and Cuffee took over in crunch time. The only problem with Green is he can't handle the rock..

Hill wasn't much of a creator or penetrator tonight. I would like to see more of that. However, his BB IQ is high and he's a natural scorer.Green and Cuffee took over in crunch time. The only problem with Green is he can't handle the rock..

I would stake my life on hills finishing ability.. he was obviously feeling the pressure, hes used to being the underdog and instead hes the top dog from the draft with a mountain of expectation... he doesn't have the CDR and CHalmers pride issue to deal with.. he will settle in and the doubts will pass into history.
you took the words right out of my keyboard!!
Hill also seemed pretty good at splitting the double team when using the screen. He seems tough to me.
damn hill had as many rebounds as Ian... 8
Gist needed his own post, because I thought he played great. He has great positioning and looks to be an excellent shot blocker. Sometimes he does over-commit to the block, but he has a great second leap. If can get a mid-range game going, he will be an awesome pickup. I think Gist is likely to make the team, unless he completely screws up the rest of the games.
I suspect Spurs know what they have in Gist. Sit him to keep his asking price down.
Hairston is going to get waived, either Green or Tolliver will get his spot at training camp.
hill could have easily have had 5-6 assists if his teammates would have hit some open jumpers
why does hill need to be flashy
spurs have manu who tries his flashy stuff
hill is solid
I didn't know the internets were free here this summer.
I'll be on more for the coming games.
