what the is wrong with you guys? He's been mediocre at best. McDyess is the best option at the moment. Splitter will be good eventually, but right now he looks sloppy.
Blair's better as an energy spark off the bench.
I've watched Splitter play a total of 22 minutes and know without a doubt that he is the BEST possible compliment to Timmy.
This kid's the truth.![]()

Oh, he will. Probably by around midseason.
Dino Dice might be starting by the playoffs, but only if Splitter doesn't pan out.
Only because he's not in game shape yet but even then his rotations on D have been incredible.
no doubt that he will eventually maybe not quite yet though.
@halberto, give him time. Splitter is only going up from here.
He's extremely impressive for a guy playing his 2nd nba game. I agree with DesignatedT, he'll almost certainly eventually start but certainly not now.
Blair might be in a slump but he obviously has more experience with the team.
If Blair is moved to the bench it will be for Dyess right now. Splitter will start once he gets a little more familiar. Him not playing the pre-season really hurt the process.
I don't give a who it is as long as it's not Matt Boner
Not sure about Splitter yet, he looks slow, doesn't have much athleticism and looks completely lost on both ends of the floor (understandable at the beginning of the season). He will need at least till the ASG to get more confortable.
blair off the bench is a better option...dude brings the energy..he just doesn't fit starting..
you are just making up
I don't know if he's mediocre, but he's not in game shape yet. It'll take a few more weeks for that to happen.
To me he looks very quick for a big man. He hedges on pick and rolls and rotates to take charges better than any big on the team.
He also clearly has some moves under the basket, but doesnt use them too much yet. I like that he's focused so far on taking charges and other hustle plays.
I don't know what you are looking for, but I'm happier with him than I expected to be at this point.
He'll be be comfortable (and starting) by the ASG.
what game were you watching? your makes no sense.
for sures, i just hate how pop thinks if he gives him a little bit more playing time that his knee's are going to explode
are u serious? did you watch the game? how he dominated in the low post and his defense presance
of course I think mcdyess is a better option right now
He has scored against a small forward way undersized, I'm not sure how much we can take out of that. He also got blocked twice when he tried that quick hook of his and he has zero elevation.
On the other end of the floor he does look much better at the pick and roll and taking a charge than any big for a long time but when Parker was on Richardson he was supposed to go help. Shows that he has still to learn the system.
I like his instincts and the potential, just don't see him getting big minutes before the ASG
I must be watching a different game because Tiago tonight looked fantastic. He was smooth on offense, his up and under past Warrick was just rediculous, also his rotations and D were good again
I honestly don't know what you guys wanted, the second coming of Dwight Howard? Good lord.
that is exactly why he needs to start because he is way better on defense than blair is. we don't need him to be an offensive juggernaut we already have duncan manu parker and jefferson 2.0.
Very solid second game by Splitter. If he has anything, he was limited by his lack of playing time conditioning. I have been very impressed with his rotations, challenges at the basket, and patience in looking for a pass before taking the shot.
Blair can learn from Splitter. With Tim to teach them both, ouch.
splitter looks great however if he starts does duncan come of the bence
splitter is to spell duncan
