    Full Name: Adrian Glenn "The Baby" Abrams, Jr. | G
    Born: October 16, 1986
    Height: 5-11
    Weight: 161 lbs
    College: Texas

    Pros: Most prolific three point shooter in Big-12 history. Very quick release. Decent defender, has the work ethic to improve. Almost an automatic when he's open.

    Cons: Very short, no slashing ability, limited ball handling skills.

    This guy would be like a perfect combination of Steve Kerr and Jaque Vaughn backup PG, without the physical tools to be a rugged Pop-style defender, and with absolutely no NBA experience.
    And honestly, I had to make this thread before Marcus did, or I'd kill myself.

    Daniel Gibson has been able to carve out an NBA career and Abrams looks like more of an NBA player at this stage of his career.

    I'm a huge A.J. Abrams fan, but I really don't want to see him on the Spurs. He's very much a chucker, and the Spurs system is all about taking the best shot on every possession. The tendency to go against this scheme is one of the reasons Michael Finley will always be loathed on some level by many Spurs fans.

    If he's a solid point and can get Geroge Hill more PT at the SG position I'm all for it, but putting Vaughn in the scouting report does not bode well for him around these parts.

    AJ took over many a game at the college level, to the point that teams focused their entire defense to stop him which effectively stopped Texas's offense.

    I think that with the benefit of not being the focus of the defense he has the opportunity to be a very good shooter i the NBA, but his height and defense are worries. Plus we'd have to see how well he'd buy into the Spurs' system.

    At worst, draft him in the 50s, put him with the Toros to raise their attendence, and see if he turns into a decent player.

    Now ask yourself this question:

    If it was stupid, did you really "have to" post it?

    With training camp only days away and the Spurs having few spots I wonder what is taking so long for these players like Gist and McClinton to get signed with either the Spurs or overseas.
    In 08, Hairston was signed on September 30th.
    In 07, Marcus Williams was signed one September 29th.
    Both signed a fully non-guaranteed contract.

    I guess the scheme is the same with McClinton and Gist. When second round picks are bad in SL, Spurs don't offer contracts with guaranteed money and players sign the contract just before the training camp.

    A.J. Abrams is doing quite well I think in the Greek league, he is second in league scorers. His assists are low though. I liked him when he was at the Longhorns.

    Do you think he will ever enter the NBA?

    He is a Free Agent. He left Trilleka the other day because they were not paying him.
    really? Ok, well sadly not paying is quite common over us at the Balkans I wonder where he's going now

    I like to keep tabs on Longhorn players with NBA talent. PJ Tucker doesn't count.

    Either way I was told he is back in Austin. He might go to Isreal or the D-League.
    I see, well thanks for the update. I hope we'll see more about this guy and maybe even make it to the NBA in the future.

    Like I said earlier, he is back in Austin. My question is what his next step is.
    Yes, I was backing up your statement he was in Austin, thanks for the insight! Let us know if you find anything out further.
