Will he sport #12 or be asked to select another number because of an outcry from Bruce Bowen fans like Ginobili.
Check this out:

What impressed me was the part where he dribbled between the legs on a post move. The guy can not only take it to the hole (see video over Kenyon Martin):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STk02KKVksk
but he can dribble and finish.
He can also hit it from the 3.
The main negative I see though is that he doesn't take his jump shot from the peak of his jump.

I am pretty sure these got posted about a month ago...Cool videos though
nice, i hope he has enough of an impact to the point where we can make a highlight video like that but in a Spurs jersey.
For the vet min, Haislip has the potential to be THE STEAL of the offseason.
I hope he is able to meet his potential with the Spurs.
This guy will be a starter!!!! GEORGE GERVIN 2.0!!!
in the video he's #24...
He has the potential to be, but he would be FAR more effective coming off the bench with Hill, Manu, Blair, and Ian.
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT 5 TOGETHER?!?!
Not that they will, but they have the potential to destroy the Laker's bench SO BADLY that they pack up and go home.
Fml
is it just me, or did it look like he dunked over the mighty splitter at the 3:00 mark?
I personally couldn't tell who it was!
Impossible. Some other Euroleague player was wearing the jersey of his revered Splitter when he was dunked on.
In the 2nd video(NBA) he's #12.
you're right.
im pretty sure he won't be allowed to wear #12.
that number is being retired regardless of what happens to that fellow.
Check out his draft measurements:
Height w/o Shoes Height w/shoes Weight Wingspan Standing Reach Body Fat No Step Vert Max Vert Bench Press Lane Agility 3/4 Court Sprint Class Rank
6' 8.5" 6' 9.75" 221 7' 0" 8' 11" NA 33.5 36.5 8 11.35 3.21 17
Wingspan of 7'
Standing Reach of 8' 11"
Max Vert of 36.5
The guy has got unique potential. Just to put this in perspective, Charlie Villanueva has got
A wingspan of 7' 0.25" '
Standing reach of 9' 1"
And max vertical of 31.0
In otherwords, that's a 5.5" jump advantage! This kind of athleticism is damn rare, plus as the videos show, he can hit it from long range!
We'll win it all if this guy delivers.
Imagine him guarding guys like Bryant and LeBron. We'll make these guys feel like when Parker was covered by Ariza.
he should start.
Duncan
Mcdyess
Haislip
Parker
Manu
My vote for 7' wingspan lineup would be:
(1) George Hill
(2) Marcus Williams
(3) Marcus Haislip
(4) DeJuan Blair
(5) Tim Duncan
WTF is wrong with this place at the moment? I never used to use the ignor function.
That is great. I would love to see this line up just to see what the other coach would do to counter. Good line up to run against Nellie to mess with him.
I know his "natural" position in the 4, but the more I see of this guy the more I think he's our back-up 3 for next season.
I hope he's improved his D...
I was about to post the exact same thing. That guy moves like a 3. I have no doubt he was brought here to cover the Odom's and Turkoglu's of the world.
nice first vid, if you compare his draft measurements with Dwight Howards than he is a higher jumper just let that sink in for a moment....WOW
This guy definitely has the athletic talent the Spurs have been looking for. Hopefully he's gotten his head in the game, and can get a good chance and take advantage of it.
This is shaping up to be one of a season. Never mind the potential of the team, which is high...it will just be interesting to see how all of these new parts are integrated in. Jefferson, McD, Blair, Mahinmi, Haislip, and maybe Hairston, Jack or the Gist....It's going to be like a whole new team on the floor at times.
Yep, that is Splitter at the 3 min. mark! The scoreboard shows them playing Tau Ceramica.
lmao.
Haislip >> Splitter !
No video of him dunking over Lebron, though.
Anybody noticed the mechanics of his 3-point shots?
Instead of jumping up and elevating over the perimeter defender, he leaps forward and up, landing always inside. Note: most of his 3P were without a body on him or over smaller defenders.
I don't know how would that work in the NBA: 1) would a bigger defender block his shots?; b) would his up-fore-leap create contact with the defender?
; c) although he has a good 3P% in Europe (30% in Turkey and 38% in Spain), his % in the NBA is 26.7% (I don't recall any of his games in the Pacers or Bucks, so I don't know if he was already shooting this way before 2005)
Any of Chip's disciples care to enlighten me on this?
Thanks.
