    He's young, and he has stud written all over him. I'm excited with the way he plays, but it'll get worse before it gets better. That's what happens with young players. Pop will continue to give him burn and this experience is going to be great for him, particularly when he's needed, starting about March.
    Ya i just figured him getting more burn than vaughn would be important so that hes able to play with his talent and ability, he needs experience to utilize his talents.. I could see if Vaughn was John stockton type.. not really fast... but completely controls many facets of the game.. but I question vaughns decision making on offense as a 12 year leader.. I dont consider it excusable for him to make mistakes like hill when hes been in the system for years... I mean if your athletic ability and offensive efficiency are dismal you better atleast be perfect on your decision making and leadership

    Spurs 8-20 from three. Solid 40%.

    A little worried that we only shot 6 free throws. Refs only called 9 fouls on the Clippers. WTF?
    I was disappointed too.
    they were 100% from FT line.

    With some of those plays and those inbounds passes, it looked like the TMac game, didn't it?
    Worse even because at least TMac hit tough shots. The Clippers comeback was slow and painful.

    Thankfully the former DPOY played the worst pick and roll defense I've ever seen.

    I am REALLY starting to feel good about this season, folks. I mean, just look at Tim! Remember a few years ago everyone saying he was on the decline....remember the plantar fasciitis, the season when he couldn't jump an inch off the floor?

    And look at him now! Scoring, rebounding, blocking, passing.....when he looks this good, this fit, this active and motivated, the Spurs are dangerous.

    And isn't it weird how the injuries to Manu & Tony may turn out to be a blessing of sorts? Allowing Mason and Hill to get a lot of experience real quick?

    Yeah, I'm starting to feel real good about this season.

    Actually, I'm less likely to erase it now that I know the outcome. I watched the first half and the Browns' defense is so disgusting I didn't know if I could watch anymore. I came in here to get away from it. My wife asked me why they're just standing around.
    they're both mediocre teams, but I actually bet on the Bills to win this game..I knew I was done when Edwards throws 3 INT's in the 1st quarter..pathetic..

    Vaughn's a third string point guard playing over his head out of necessity for the team. If he were any good at all, he'd be getting 40 minutes a night. His lack of performance and Pop's belief in George is the reason he's getting minutes. I've said it before, JV's got no gifts that should make him an NBA player, yet he's managed to hold on all these years and he almost always contributes, even though his offense has been as bad as it's ever been so far this season and there have been a lot of more talented guys that can't even make a team.

    Again, he plays good defense, knows where he's supposed to be and while he's not going to show flashes of brilliance as often as George does, he's going to be less likely to make the big mistake. Way less upside, but way less downside, which is helpful when George's game isn't on.

    Check out his posts about Hill on draft night. Didn't take him long to change his tune; I think he posted before the end of the first summer league game.

    if we can make it to the top 3 if this yr's WC,
    Mason could be the MIP.

    that Mason 3 will be on the Spurs' top moments of this yr.

    Mason's play is making it clear why the Spurs let Barry go.

    This team is scary scary good.

    Add Ginobili, and Parker to the mix with this defense and guys like Finley and Mason and Hill.

    If mahinmi can contribute anything, thats a plus.


    I really really like how this team looks right now.

    Vaughn actually does everything right..he takes jumpers when he's open, he drives to the basket aggressively when we need him to, he plays solid defense..if Jacque had ANY talent, he would have been a starter for teams at some point during his career..

    Mobley wasn't 1-9..he actually had a dominant stretch in the 3rd..he was defended well IMO(except for an open 3, where George rotated late), he was just making everything..

    No way he was 1-9.

    He made a few shots in the 4th and 3rd.

    Mason was guarding him, but he made some tough fall aways.

    I know better than anybody how georges game works, ive seen him play in hundreds of games.. and the only thing that ever holds this kid back is himself.. he needs experience.. to be able to get to that next level of confidence and instinct.. I have seen him dominate games with high levels of talent guarding him.. just like he did against houston.. His shooting is all uncertainty and confidence.. because he is one of the most clutch and accurate shooters ive seen in high school and college.. hes disciplined.. and to see him missing open shots is mind boggling to me... because I have seen him drill 9 three balls in a period of about 5 minutes.. the game against houston is what ive seen him do his whole career...
    but he does have games where he has NO energy, or isn't aggressive ... and Ive went after him about it, searching for a cause... if its diet related .. it needs to be fixed
