    Ian has a better chance of making something out of himself in the NBA than Hairston does. That's the truth. Hairston has always been overrated on a board that flocks to any sort of athleticism (Ian,Pops,Hairston,White)

    I like Hairston just like most people but just like I said at the end of last season I would rather have Gee.
    So we all have opinions while you speak the truth.

    It was probably between Gee and Hairston. not Neal and Hairston.

    I can't say I'm surprised to see Spurs giving up on Hairston. He failed to have some kind of impact when he got playing time with Spurs last year. It looked like the NBA was a step too high for him. Spurs going hard after Temple and Gee also wasn't a good sign for him.

    And big props to Spurs for being classy and being honest with Hairston. They could have let him hope but they have been honest to help Hairston's career.

    Now, I'm curious to see what Spurs will do with Gee. Do Spurs like him or will they sign a vet SF?

    Neal would have been a guaranteed first round pick if it wasn't for his run in with the law. Than he had to go overseas.
    Neal was projected to be a late second round pick or to go undrafted. When you have to back up stupid opinions with artificial facts it weakens your position.

    I said Hairstons been given a chance... You always twist around everything we're talking about In every damn argument we are in.

    Wow again with the logic. So no other players have had run in's w the law? They all had to go overseas for several years?

    Hairston went under that screen and Nash hit the three pointer. He had to go.

    I'm not twisting anything, I'm calling you out on your bull .
    500 minutes in 2 years amount to little over 3 minutes per game.
    Do you call that giving somebody a chance?

    In two seasons Malik played more for the Toros than the Spurs. True or False?

    Neal would have been a guaranteed first round pick if it wasn't for his run in with the law. Than he had to go overseas.
    He was found not guilty. If he had the talent, there was nothing preventing him from joining the league.

    I'm just wondering how long it's going to take until you change your tune to "Neal was given a chance, and obviously he's not an NBA player" after he gets 3 min stints, is waived or is shipped to the Toros.

    You know it's coming.

    c'mon. I know I have a separate opinion just like everyone else on this board. Why are you trying to take this personnel when were talking about basketball. Somebody has to take the other side in these arguments or how boring would that be.

    It's not bull . I seem to trust an NBA front office more than some guys on a message board. That's all my arguments come from. I think they know what they are doing and I think they know that if Malik was some great defender (because that's all he supposedly had going for him) they wouldn't let him go to europe. The coaching staff sees these guys play every day.

    It really is re ed how some people have the need to either completely dog on the player that's leaving or completely overrating the remaining scrubs in order to suck some FO .

    Maybe Malik wasn't ready for the NBA. Maybe this Euro tour is the best thing for him. good luck to him. Just stop justifying this thing by aggrandizing other scrubs that have yet to play a minute of NBA action.

    I don't think Gee is ready.

    Chicago wants to trade James Johnson. Do it RC.

    Tell me, did they miss watching Bogans or RMJ every day?

    I understand that sometimes they gamble, and it either pays off or not. That's fine. You don't need to dog on players or over hype them to justify those gambles.

    Now wth do we do about backing RJ up? Its seems like Gee brings the exact same game that RJ does. Ugh I wish we had signed butler as a backup.

    Does this mean that Gist is an option for training camp? He also has been following the Spurs advice and playing in Europe. Bigger than Malik and possibly could play SF.
    I think Gee made Malik's position too tenable, and he went to Europe to improve his game and get some money. Being in a rich young man in Italy would not suck.

    It really is re ed how you could take this message board so seriously when were all here to share our opinions on spurs basketball. Agree with it disagree with it, whatever, but stop ing that people have a different opinion than you.

    How am I overhyping? By saying I believe that Neal can be a better player than Hairston? Okay I might be wrong but that's what I think. Stop acting like there are right and wrong answers in this because there arent.

    Yeah, obviously you didn't see it or you wouldn't have made up that bull about him being a guaranteed first round pick.

    lol @ temple at SF
    There are basically 3 Spurs that can play or defend the 1, 2 and 3 positions, depending on matchups. Ginobili, Hill and Temple.

    It's not really an outlandish thought from the Spurs' standpoint. It's a matter of watching what goes on, real-world, in games.

    And for people wondering, there is no way Hairston is going to Italy because he picked it over playing for Spurs. He will play at a worse level and will ahve a lower salary.

    Spurs likely told him that he had great chances of being cut at the end of the training camp and that they would release him if he finds a good team in Europe.

    lol @ seriously

    I have no problem with differing opinions. However, when you're into spewing bull , be prepared to be called out for it. You don't have to like it either.
    It happens all the time in here.

    You have a link that shows him projected to go undrafted?
