Meh.
Players of his type who can't hit 3's with regularity tend not to do well in this system.
well that's basically all he has. don't get me wrong, i am positive about aminu, but right now he's complete garbage, he's the t-rob of sf. Spurs could fix him, in theory, but Kirilenko is a completely different player.Aminu has much upside. How could a player that gifted athletically not have much upside? Are you okay?
Aminu reminds me of a more athletic udoka
Ok, so ak47 is the missing piece to a championship run? If he comes it will be to back up kawhi, Livio isnt capable of that? So then what was the point of drafting him? When has a player really ever developed oversea?
Are these serious questions?
that's a stupid take tbh.
AK was asked if he would want to play for Miami for less money and he said something like that he still feels that he can contribute more than be just a bench player. So I don't know how the Spurs would convince him to play 20 minutes a game and be a backup. I bet he wants to be a starter.
No bro. Im just trolling.
Even more reason for Livio
Makes sense if Splitter is gone.
It's simple the Spurs want him to start and let Splitter walk (or S&T him). AK47 is cheaper and better.
More likely a replacement for Stephen Jackson/T-Mac
I'd be fine with splitter going back to the bench and ak starting next to Duncan.
Our needs are a guard/wing who can score and/or make plays and a solid big. I have doubts as to whether spending the money on Kirilenko would make us any better than last year.
I just look at our situation and don't see the big "get" with him. And just once, I'd like to get someone young.
They are saying if AK47 is signed..It could be the end of Manu?..And Green could take over Manu's role..But he cannot handle the ball like Ginobili, so I would have to say that
Who's saying that? lol
Ak seems like a splitter replacement while monta is the potential Ginobili replacement
I agree . . . and even though it almost certainly won't work for them, it's worth a shot.
I do think Kirilenko would have interest, for all the obvious reasons, but the Timberwolves can and more than likely will offer more money and they'll allow him to play his (presumed) preferred position with more regularity.
There is a scenario where they could re-sign Splitter and sign him, but I can't see it happening. In addition to seeing if they can get a contender discount, he's also probably a fallback option if Splitter get's something they deem astronomical.
I'm still resigned to the only off season addition with a guarantee being either Delfino or Casspi.
How old is James White?
If you pay someone 8M per year, they are usually a lot more than a end of bench player replacement. Especially considering the things that would likely have to happen to get him (Manu taking less, amnesty of Bonner...). If you pay someone like that it's because they will play a big role.
One of the espn 'insiders' had this to say in his update:
If the Spurs are able to land Kirilenko, one has to believe that it could -- let us emphasize the word "could" -- mean the end for Manu Ginobili in San Antonio. San Antonio would be able to start Kirlenko and use Danny Green in Ginobili's role as instant offense off the bench.
I'm guessing this guy's an idiot and doesn't know what he's talking about. Wanted to get thoughts here. Wouldn't it be more likely that it would mean the end of Tiago? Under this dude's scenario it sounds like he's trying to imply a starting 5 of TP, KL, AK, TS, and TD? Can anybody here envision that scenario?
You said nothing about age.
Also there are several scores of undrafted free agents that are very athletic. Do they all have upside?
Joe Kaiser is the supposed 'espn insider' who said that
