    Salim has a groin injury so him being able to help the Spurs or any team this season is slim to none. groin injuries require rest. He can't get that trying to make a team participating in training camp, which is why he reinjured himself. He can get some rest the next few months and possibly join a team around Feb. and help out then. Signing him just to ride the bench when you can get young bodies that you can use doesn't make much sense.
    Word up. It takes a while for a groin injury to heal. LIke 6 to 10 weeks. THen it is like a sprained ankle, prone to relapse.

    It's unfortunate but hopefully he will still be around in the future.

    That's like microball.
    That rotation is big at the PG position at least.

    Geez, think of the log jam if Splitter had come.

    If Splitter had come I doubt Tolliver would have ever been considered? Maybe as a one for one swap out with Bonner. Hence, we'd just be arguing over Hairston/Farmer.

    It amazing that this is even a big discussion. Malik and Desmon Farmer are three times better than tolliver despite the position difference. Whatever you do WE NEED TO KEEP FARMER. He is by FAR the best prospect out of the 3. He shows potential to be a star the other have potential to be OK players its a no brainer! If your looking for the best two keep Farmer and Malik , if by position Farmer and Tolliver but again Farmer is the most talented by far and i think is far better than roger mason and finley.

    I voted Tolliver after reading the posts here. Farmer has more offense right now. Hairston is young and has upside. Not sure if Tolliver is really that great a three point shooter since his recent numbers apparently aren't very good. Yet the main thing he supposedly would bring to table is to be a 4 who can spread the floor for Tim Duncan by hitting the 3.

    yea you probably could. but that would be a lot harder to argue than saying tolliver could stretch the floor with his shooting like farmer can.
    Farmer hits his shots, Tolliver doesn't. Farmer's a proven scorer, Tolliver hit a bunch of threes in summer league. That's the point I was trying to make.

    Just for fun, has anyone done plus/minus numbers on Bonner or Vaughn? I keep hearing about how they should be dumped in favor of one of the young guys. Let's see some evidence.

    well not that im in love with tolliver but for the sake of the discussion...

    tolliver does have a nice form and a nice arc. i think he just needs the confidence the farmer seemingly has.

    I agree. He looked amazing in SL. Here's the problem: When Hill was missing shots, you knew he was a scorer from college so you figured he'd probably be okay. You have Farmer's scoring history to look back on. With Tolliver, you don't know if SL was just a fluke or if his shooting in preseason is just a slump. I don't know his history, but I do remember how shocked everyone was that he was taking all those shots, let alone knocking them down.

    Again, it's not going to crush me if he gets the nod over Farmer, but I think the dilemma the Spurs face is in not knowing. I feel like Pop's still grieving for Horry and Tolliver is his rebound infatuation. I hope that doesn't cloud his judgment.

    That's the whole point. TiMVP said that Tolliver wasn't a great shooter in college or anywhere really until about a year ago overseas. So he's really only been shooting great for just over a year. I do not think that is a good thing. I don't know if I trust him. If i want three point shooting I take Farmer with out question over Tolliver.

    He hasn't shot well enough long enough to have confidence in his shot, especially in pressure situations. You need that confidence in your shot if you're going to make it in those situations.

    If Bonner only liked somewhat intelligent out there then Tolliver wouldn't have been given the time of day, but then Gist would've made this much harder. ING BONNER!!!

    My only guess is that it's mainly people who decided they didn't like him on draft night. If you'd put Hill on that poll there'd damn sure be several people that would vote to have him cut.

    Cut Farmer until they find a suitor to take on Bonner's contract.

    Her death came on the same day that Tolliver, a former Creighton star, officially learned that he made the San Antonio Spurs' roster.
    Tolliver made the team. Its funny how these guys know and MySA doesn't. Monroe and McDonald owned yet again.
