It's not waaaaay too early to say Splitter has done exceptionally well, and clearly shown he is starter capable based on the sample size, and his previous European accomplishments.
It's never waaaay too early for greyfan to be a dumbass.
Splitter will warm up into the role of starting center but that will not and it should not happen for a couple of months.
Blair needs to come off the bench. He is pushing himself to hard as a starter. He forces way too much in what looks like an attempt to show that he belongs. On the bench, he would be free to post while Anderson and Neal spread the floor with their threes.
Coming off the bench Blair would probably post 8-10 points per game and he would grab 6-8 rebounds. He would probably foul less as well as he would be going against lesser talent for longer periods of time.

this mother er was expecting Dennis Rodman
hey genius, you can count with 1 hand the # of players that "clean up the glass" in this league. Timmy D doesn't even clean up the glass anymore. he sucks too?
come back to earth.
so who should start?
so you don't have an opinion. I see, you just hatin on Tiago. carry on.
Wow, that was the final act of your grand argument against Splitter?
i want to see splitter play with the first team and see how it pans out, he cant do worse with the first team only better, manu and tony will help him get easy shots and i think he would do much better starting than coming off the bench and playing with george hill and the second team
lol you guys getting trolled hard, georgehill3 cant be that stupid
The best way to not end up with a close game at the end is to start strong. It's difficult for an NBA team to dig out of a hole when they give up a big early lead. You want your best players to finish the game, but you also want those players on the floor at the very beginning.
I think that the people that liked his game and are predicting he'll be a force, etc, should and wait a little bit more because he'll gather a lot of haters here, he already gathered some...
Let's wait and see how he does when he's averaging 20mpg
Are you kidding me, Splitter looked good last night??? Yeah right. Through 7 minutes he had 3 fouls. He has a long LONG way to go. 7 points and 3 rebounds is not impressive. As for Blair, he looks terrible this year, just TERRIBLE. I dunno what it is, call it what you want, maybe he needs to come off the bench, maybe not. He did perform well off the bench last year. But this year he is really struggling. The Spurs need to get some size, and they need it bad. Maybe Splitter will improve as the year goes on, but enough to contend? I'm not sold on that. We still need another guy in the range of 7 foot, give or take a couple inches, and we don't have the pieces for a trade. Trading anyone of value to get a player of value, and the Spurs are right where they started. The roster now, plus a solid big man would be nice. Next years draft pick maybe??? I don't have a good answer, and obviously neither does the front office, this has been a problem since 04. Scola........
Ah, an excellent analysis based on nothing but the boxscore.
Another person who only observes pt totals and "sexy" stats for evaluating a player. If you would have actually watched the game you would have noticed all the positive things he was doing on both ends of the court.
But hey sorry Splitter didn't score 20 and 10 in his 2nd career NBA game.
Correct. Stats only tell a very small part of the story. Too many people fail to realize that 90% of the game is played off the ball.
oh and if you want to look at stats....http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/...PKB4?year=2007.... look at Luis Scola's first 9 games as a rookie
he asked you who should start and you dodged it.
he's a pussy. won't say who he thinks should start. But is ready to bash Tiago's 2nd game in the NBA.he asked you who should start and you dodged it.
what a lunatic
yeah your opinions have been 99% talking about sucking . can't get out of your head huh?
Uh, not yet.
Familiarity is probably the wrong word.....seeing as how they have been in the same system for the same amount of time. Vet. experience yes.
Your lack of common sense makes me think you were premature. How do you get along in life handicapped such as you are?

...Just wait until he’s actually in shape and knows what he’s doing.
“I think day by day I’ll improve and get in shape,” said Splitter, who missed the preseason with a strained muscle in his right calf. “It was two months without playing a game. I’m trying to catch my teammates. They’re already in shape and playing very good.”
