9pts. 9rebs. 3blks in basically a half?
Sounds like he's progressing quite nicely, and will be with the big boys pretty soon.![]()
nice. bring him over now![]()
settle down cowboy.
It will be a Tony, Manu and Ian unveiling!!!
okay okay
Damn, great line for Ian, but Malik needs to settle down. He might've cancelled out his tos, but he should be positive in that respect. Can't wait to see both playing 30-40 minutes.
Anyone have an idea about this Vipers team, and if they actually had bigs to challenge him?
Chump?
they didn't sign Watkins who is known to be a good shotblocker. So maybe they'll bring over Ian soon if he can show some of that
From what I heard in preseason, Ian is better in every way compared to Watkins. Having said that, I wash he had been called up instead of Ahearn. Or Malik. Sucks Pop only has 1 spot to with, unless Bonner plays solid for a month straight, then he might waive Tolliver, since his greater athleticism cancels out his lesser range compared to Matt.
Just so you all know, if you want to watch the regular season games (especially if Ian is still there), all the regular season DLeague games will be broadcast online on NBA.com.
no one has to get cut to bring in Ian, he's already on the roster. Someone will need to be put on IR, or sent down to Austin, but that's it.
I wasn't able to go tonight, but Alton Ford is a fat bas with some NBA experience. Kendall Dartez has been and Kurt Looby looks like he could be a quality big in the D-League. I'm definitely going to the game on Saturday.
I'm only talking about the 2 cheap spots, Farmer/Ahearn and Tolliver. I'm saying Ahearn molds into Hairston by the end of the year, and Tolliver to Watkins. Leave Watkins alone if Ian steps it up and really contributes, though. We already have one clone pair(Bolliver).
How much is it to sign up?
Registration is free.
Thanks, both of you.
So chump, you have any thoughts on this game, or were you too busy?
Um, no. Spurs need frontcourt help ASAP. Give him another game or 2 to get his legs and call his arse up.
You say the Spurs need help ASAP yet you say give him 2 games, why would want to wait that long then.
I say give him those 10 games to get conditioned, no need in rushing him just yet.
Why? Our frontline is the worst I've seen. Throw Mahinmi into the fire and let's see what he's made of.
Call me crazy, but I guess I just don't like the idea of losing the majority of the next 15-20 games, and missing the playoffs, because they don't want to rush anybody.
I mean, how much would that suck if they start their patented late season push to the playoffs and really got something special going, only to just miss the playoffs because of one bad stretch of games.
Okay....you're crazy.Call me crazy
Being out of condition leads to a larger chance of reinjury....then what? You are overracting to one loss.
The Spurs are known for not bringing players back too soon, just ask DRob, Sean, etc.
The Spurs are still right in the thick of the playoffs and it is still early in the season.
in '99 we were 6-8 in a much shorter season and look what happened.
So he can play for the D-league but not in the NBA. What a jip. Here it goes again. Hopefully one day Ill eat these words. And I can live with that. But......Ian=waste of time.
