    I don't see a need for Marcus Haislip. Bonner has played well enough to be the "stretch big" the Spurs want. Jefferson can play the small ball four. McDyess looks mobile enough that he isn't too much of a liability against swift bigs. If injuries open up bigman minutes, I'd rather see Mahinmi. I don't see where Haislip fills any type of need.

    Antonio Daniels is a s of his former self but he actually fits some needs. The Spurs need a third string point guard -- especially since Parker has fragile ankles, Ginobili is always going to be an injury worry and Hill is foul prone. AD is better than any other point guard available simply because he knows the system on both ends. His ballhandling and ability to get to the line is enough for me to say he's better than RMJ as a point guard.

    As long as the Spurs are going all in this year, might as well continue making moves that give the team a better chance to win.

    Agree,
    There's no reason to have Haislip on the roster.

    AD is a better option at backup PG then Mason

    buh, buh Haislip was suppose to be our defensive stopper against Dirk, Odom, or Rashard Lewis. Remember he's Rasheed 2.0.

    I actually had hopes for Haislip, clearly I was an idiot lol

    I agree that we need another PG though. When both Parker and Hill were out in the clutch tonight, and no Manu to handle the ball, my heart stopped and I gave up on the game. I don't want to see that ever happening again.

    Daniels would only be playing while Tony and Manu are hurt. Would he really sign with a team that's going to put him on an inactive list? He might choke somebody.

    The only drawback (other than having to eat Haislip's contract) is that it could cause Hill to press. But if Hill can't beat out the corpse of AD, the Spurs have bigger problems . . .

    He's good friends with Tim and lives in S.A. I'm sure he'd happily sit on the inactive list.

    Yeah, I know they're good friends. Actually this is the first year in a while that the Spurs haven't had a 3rd PG on the team. (Vaughn, Van Exel, Wilks, etc.)

    Agreed. At least we could move Mahinmi for something, a second round pick and some cash?

    Still RC has a budget too and the Spurs will wait out this week with only one point guard.
    I forgot about those afternoon practices.

    Get rid of those right away. This Spurs team has looked horrible most of the season.

    I think that the afternoon practices are the real problems. Duncan needs to tell Pop to cut that out because some Stanford study shows that free throw percentages go up. Not in the Spurs case.
    I've been saying this too. Doubt it has much of an effect but it's worth a shot.

    It is weird for the players. Every NBA player takes a nap before the game. Or they take an hour around the city. I don't think these practices are doing anyone any good because everyone is off their schedules.
    So they are not sleeping at all now before the game???

    It would be a lot better for the players to keep taking naps before the game as that will make you fresher for the game.

    If they are not getting any sleep before the games this is stupid.

    I was going to start a thread called George Hill Is Not A Point Guard(TM), but this will probably do here.

    He can probably be a good small 2 who can handle the ball. Hasn't been a single moment this season where he's shown he's capable of running an offense in the half court. When it comes to that, he's not even close to as good as AD was in his prime, and he's probably not as good as him now even.
