Roger Mason: Lost 17 lbs this summer

[DMX7]

Tony Parker used to be in Subway commericials.

So basically all of the Spurs are loosing weight and the fans are gaining it..

And apparently dropping out of school . . .

He might've lost a bit of weight with that haircut. Dude's hair at the end was LONG.

[The Truth #6]

Finley looked to be in excellent condition as well.

I wouldn't worry about heavy legs syndrome, with regards to Mason this season. He won't be asked to play or create as much, he'll primarily be a spot up shooter.

If he was right at his 212 listing from last season and is down 17 pounds, then that means he's 195 right now. Which is good, because he needed to be slightly quicker laterally and more athletic than he was last season. It won't help him when Bryant or Artest inevitably take him down in the post, but nothing he could have done could have helped that. Mason is listed at 6'5'' but is probably closer to 6'4''.

[mingus]

he's not going to start making shots because of it, but his defense was comparable to Finley's and i think it's going to make him a quicker, better defender.

[Saban Rules]

I've never thought of Mason at any part of "overweight". Honestly his previous weight couldn't be more normal for a shooting guard, thus losing weight only helps him get fitter for PG position. I guess MF will start for Spurs at SG next season with Manu gobbling some 30min/game off the bench at this position, if Manu's health permits. While Mason's main job for next season is naturally expected to be settled at PG behind Tony Parker, I mean next season we won't see Mason playing SG very often unless Manu or MF suffers somes bad injuries and misses some games.

no way is mason going to be the permanent backup point guard. you are a knick fan, so that comment makes sense. If you have seen mason play then common sense would have stopped you from posting that nonsense

And lol at the subway hate here. Subway rocks, and anyone who can make a sandwich for 50 cents that is better than Subway is a pro chef and should be making better sandwiches.

I do it every day - buy all your ingredients and make about 16 sandwiches for $12 bucks. Ok, a little more than 50 cents each but still a lot better than $5.50 or whatever with tax. And you only have to drive to the store once every 16 sandwiches except every one sandwich.

Bottled Water marketers still have subway beat though. People who eat subway are just lazy (like 99% of the population) but bottled water people have actually gotten people to put extra effort into spending $ on stuff they could get for free every day by just adding a 3 cycle filtration system for $20 and get 3 months of free drinking water. Now that's genius marketing almost on the level of religion for manipulating people.

Dude, their $5 subs are the ones that nobody wants, like the cold cut combo, or their oven-roasted chicken. The absolute best sandwich they have though is the italian BMT on flatbread... that's a ridiculous sandwich.
Also, in that training camp vid, u could see Mason jr's weightloss in his face, he looks younger too. Hopefully it translates to better D

They had a $5 Buffalo chicken when I went to Subway today. Excellent.

Subway isn't bad but it sucks balls compared to Quiznos.

[EJFischer]

according to Roger Mason Jr., he lost 17 lbs over the summer

Excellent. I hope it helps him go around screens. That was a real liability last year.

[mazerrackham]

Is losing all that fat going to help him find his shot in the playoffs.

I dunno, what is Vujacic doing to find his?

Nice floatation devices in your sig. How long did it take to blow those up?
