    Next Toros game is Thursday.

    Malcom's 3pt stroke looks decent though his release is pretty slow. Should be pretty effective when playing small ball PF.

    Can't sign ten days yet. At the least it's an unguaranteed deal, but there may be some guaranteed money in there if there was a bidding "war."

    They're going to try him at the three and small ball four. Don't expect any trades at this point.

    I always figured that his problem was his shooting. That to me was the reason why he was let go by the Spurs to begin with. It is appearing now that he has increased his range out to the 3 and that is an invaluable skill to have within the Spurs system. Case in point.... Matt Bonner. It was nice seeing a defensive minded player who played above the rim in his short time with the Spurs. If his range is indeed extended to the 3 with any sort of consistency, he might very well stick with the Spurs this time. It would be nice as a backup small ball 4 with Leonard able to stay at the 3. This signing is extremely intriguing for me. Let us hope he is what the Spurs need. If not, no big deal. It isn't like the Spurs won't do fine without him.

    So is he going to play a few games for the Toros or is he going straight to San Antonio?

    Maybe if there are back-to-backs coming up or something. As it is, Baynes and de Colo can't even get any burn with the mothership. Malcom might sit with the Spurs tomorrow but my guess is he gets assigned and practices with the Toros while the Spurs travel.

    I like this signing.
    It looks like the FO also sees a deficit in the frontcourt.
    I was watching the OKC game against MIN, and even though MIN lost, having 2 bigs in Love and Pekovic is key to play against these kind of teams.
    Duncan and Tiago arent strong enough, and apparently Baynes isnt getting more minutes (why is not important now).
    Lets see what happens, like I said, I like this.

    Was that his weakness? the 3 point shooting?
    I think he is a mainly a PF, so I don't think he was a three point shooter at all. It seems like he's worked on his shooting and added that to his game.

    I would say that Diaw's injury isn't really a factor in that signing. Even without him, Spurs have still 5 bigmen with Duncan, Splitter, Bonner, Ayres and Baynes.

    The timing has more to do with it being now or never. Thomas was tearing it all in D-League with especially the new ability to hit 3 pointers. Had Spurs not call him up, another team would have done it in the next few days. It's even possible that Thomas already had multiple offers and picked Spurs over other ones.
    Ah, ok. Thanks for the info I'm glad he's added the 3 point shot. If you can do that + defend, that's a great foundation to have. For our system at least

    His highlights were posted earlier, I think save some scoring in the second game.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought he was more of a tweener? Too small/skinny to play PF on the NBA level and not much of a shooter? He's also a decent shot blocker with pretty good athleticism too isn't he?

    If all that is correct, and he's worked on his shot and added some perimeter skills, I think he can make it.

    Looks as if he put on more weight as in muscle.

    I think this is just a testament to how good a guy like Nate Robinson is. Malcolm Thomas (at 6'9") has all the tools in the world to be a great NBA player, but still can't make it. The NBA and professional basketball as a whole are just so cutthroat.

    Wow, Thomas looks really good. Hes definitely upped his game from a couple of seasons ago when we had him in our club. And that 3 point shot is a nice development. Should definitely take a long hard look at him....
