[Brazil]

he can speak with a scottish accent as far as im concerned, as long as he stays healthy and contributes this year.

don't say that without knocking on wood and saying a prayer to the basketball Gods

I was thinking the exact same thing when I read it.

Saw and spoke to Ian today at Texas Shine on Stone Oak and Huebner. He came in to get his Escalade cleaned. Recognized him from the get go, and introduced myself. He was a really cool guy and we actually talked for awhile. He says he is 100% healthy and is ready to play in Vegas next week. I asked him if he had an inside scoop on what the FO is doing and all he said was SHEEED. He mentioned that I would see him play for the Spurs this year...and I told him were ready to see what he can bring to the table.

Its interesting to see how our big rotation can be like next year....cant wait

Did he look like he gained anymore muscle? He was pretty light the last two years.

Are you sure he didn't say " " in his Jamaican/French/Scottish accent, as in "Sheet if I know what they're doing."?

[Summers]

Oh, and I forgot to say, cool story and very exciting news.

[Russ]

In Jamaica they speak Creole which is basically pigeon French.

Na he still is skinny....he has those chicken legs but the dude is looooong. I dont think he will be a great on the ball defender but the weak side help D could be his strength.

Sounds like Thabeet -- he needs open space to block a shot. He can fly across the baseline to block a shot from the weakside but his own man can bump him away so he can't block. Same with Elson.

Hopefully Mahinmi can make it in the NBA but I have my doubts, mostly about his tenacity.

[loveforthegame]

That's cool you got to meet him.

Best news is hearing that he's 100% healthy. Look forward to seeing how he performs in the SL.

did he sprain his ankle getting into his escalade?
