how did he look? I missed it.
Has Hairston passed Udoka on the depth chart already? He played 2 minutes tonight vs. DNP for Udoka.
I hope so.
No offense to Udoka, but he's kinda garbage this year..
I hope Hairston replaces Udoka in the rotation. Just going by what Hairston's first two games show, this may be the case

He messed up on defense and pop took him out. He didn't really play.
Maybe Pop should put him in with 2 of the Big 3, and have Tim be one of them.
He didn't play long enough to even say that hes officially passed him.
neither udoka nor hairston will play in the playoffs.
it couldnt hurt. lets see what hairstons got.
I was a bit surprised that Pop inserted Hairston over Udoka, even for his short stint. Now that he has, and considering the Denver game will be a B2B, let's see what he can do.
Udoka has spent way too many nights as the worst player on the floor regardless of who else is out there. If he gets any minutes on this trip he'd better make the most of them. He's already got one sneaker out the door.
It's hard to take much from two minutes, but he did mess up on defense. However, he did have a drive to the hoop that resulted in drawing a foul.
He also had his fist career assist![]()
sucks to be udoka right now. hard to prove anything if you've got manu, mason, bowen and finley to compete for minutes. and every time he was given a chance, he messes it up. even if you somehow manages to show he can be useful, there's little to no chance he can crack that 2-guard/SF rotation.
Hairston pretty much looked lost. Can't really take anything from 2 minutes.
Udoka simply plays like he doesn't belong most of the time.
I don't get everyone slamming Udoka to prop up Hairston. I want Hairston to get minutes also, and I want to see what he can do, but I see no reason to pull down Udoka. I'm not saying he's great, but he's in the classic trap of not getting minutes and then feeling he has to shoot as quickly as possible to earn more time. A lot of previous quality Spurs players have fallen into this as well.
feel bad for udoka
I don't feel bad for Udoka..he's had plenty of time to prove himself, and he hasn't made the best of it..nothing you can do in that case..
I'm disappointed in Udoka. I really hoped he could bring more this season.
What the happened to Udoka? He played really well for us last year.
It could be that Udoka started to press the fewer and fewer minutes he got. And the more you press the more mistake prone you become. Prolly a lot like Tolliver. You have to let the game come to you, not force things.
Hairston will be back in Austin after the RRT for the remainder of the Toros season, just like Ian last year.
