    I don't think the Spurs will go into the season with only one player with real point guard skills.
    I agree. The Spurs have a great group of guys that can play multiple positions, but there's no overlap at point. Pop's not going to like that.

    Gist, Mahimi, Haislip, McClinton, Williams, Hairston

    Can all these guys like rotate or something between Austin and the Spurs??

    It would give the team options incase of injuries or etc.
    Mahinmi, Williams and Haislip can't.. the others could, but there's not enough roster spots for all those folks. There'd be essentially three spots between Gist, McClinton, Hairston and Williams. Whichever didn't make the team would be free to sign/called up elsewhere if they were with the Toros.

    Exactly the reason why I won't be surprised if Jacque Vaughn ends up back here.

    I've never thought much of Hairston and his future as an NBA player.

    But I'd still rather have him on the team than Finley.

    Haislip and Williams can't go to Austin.
    Yeah I know, Haislip has been in the league already for a few years same with Williams. Just the money that Marcus is getting paid means hes going to have to earn it playing some decent minutes. Hopefully he doesn't re bust.

    I'm not saying I'm in favor of it, just that I won't be surprised if it happens.

    You probably won't find the footage of Hairston's 3 consecutive plays of shutting down Lebron, since word is that Nike stole the footage..

    Because Marcus Williams isn't even on the Summer League roster and Malik is. Not to mention, Malik signed a contract even before Summer League started, which is unusual, so things don't look good for Williams.
    Bigdog,

    Williams will be in training camp. The Spurs like him. He's just nursing a little offseason wrist injury. That's why he's not in summer league. Don't read so much into his omission from the SL roster.

    I still don't believe that someone from the Bonner/Finley/Mason trio won't be traded.

    As for Malik, a big , some of this , and a couple of these.

    This guy's shot is not there yet, but he can take it to the whole and finish with authority, and he can alter/contest shots very well. I like his D all around.

    But more than that, I like the FO keeping their eye on the ball here... ensuring we don't lose young prospects to other teams during/after summer league. Now please, trade Finley so this guy can see some PT!


    Very poetic! And truthful! I agree!

    Ah, ok. I had no idea about the injury. Thanks for the info.

    Yep. Got memories of how Mason at the point worked out too.

    I sure as hope not. The Mason at PG experiment was a total disaster.

    I like Vaughn! But unfortunately, some back up point guards give the team a certain edge, either offensively or defensively (Carter of Denver, who gives both).

    Vaughn, unfortunately, has neither.

    You mean the only point guard experiment that cost the Spurs two good players at the same time? That's what I'm afraid of. You should be, too.

    The funny thing is, Mason played the point not just solidly, but above average in Washington as a scoring PG. He torched the Cavs in the playoffs from the PG position as well.

    My point is he I think with more time he could do MUCH BETTER AT THE BACK UP POINT, especially as he is very good shooter of the dribble.

    Not that I'm pining for it or anything, but I think on the whole he'd be a lot better than last season.

    It wasn't just the fact that Mason was playing PG though..every play that we ran with him as PG was a pick and roll at the top, it got very predictable..

    The Spurs are going to do a multi-player trade here soon.
