Thomas playing tonight? yea right. They still have Ayres and Matt ing Bonner!!
Honestly they should just put him out there right now in place of Ayers and see what he might be able to do. I'm sure he will make mistakes but thats pretty much what Ayers does anyways without improvement so that is moot. At least with Thomas you risk but with a possibility of improvement.

Maybe Thomas will start? It wouldn't be absurd, but I expect Ayres to start. However, since Jeff is the only other center healthy besides Tim and Love plays out on the perimeter, Thomas could get a lot of minutes at the four.
Ayres is going to start.
Bruno, you need to come by and lock this thread. OP should've posted this in the Official Trade/Signing Ideas and Rumors Thread, like Bruno has been ordering us to. Oh wait...
It's not an idea, oh butthurt one. It's reported news of a signing. He is ACTUALLY a Spur. Advocating the locking of this thread at this point just makes you look (more) stupid.
Did someone get their thread locked? Awwww.
Uh oh, bolded member to the rescue!
And as far as I'm concerned, at the time this thread was posted, it qualifies as a rumor. That's a very subjective field, but of course I guess mods and bolded members always get the benefit of the doubt.
You're still going on about this?
lol
Are they ever going to play this guy? Surely, he can't be worse than Ayres can he?
Anyone think this is a chemistry signing? Watching the Inside Stuff segment on the Spurs, I feel like a guy like Kawhi would feel left out in the locker room. He already seems introverted. Now imagine being on the road and trying to relate with a bunch of guys who are not only 10-15 years older than you, but some barely know how to speak english. Never mind that no one else on the Spurs other than Green and maybe Ayres/CJ grew up in the US at the same time as him. Who would Kawhi have to talk to every time they head out on the bus or plane? I know we've looked at Thomas for a long time, but I feel like half of the reason is to make Kawhi feel comfortable off the court.
Leonard can't be comforted when his buddy is always in Austin and not on those road trips with him.
Garbage time fodder. Pop isn't going to play a guy who hasn't played in the system. Anyone expecting him to make any kind of impact anytime soon is kidding themselves.
cough*Ayres*cough
I think after some time in Austin to refresh him on our system, he'll be up and get some burn. I think they want to see what they have, and you can only see that in game situations.
He's a different player than the last time he was here. His d-league numbers are ridiculous, but if he could even shoot 35-36% from downtown, he could stick as a 3 and D combo forward.
Stubborn ass Pop needs to just throw him in the fire. I mean it's the regular season, not the playoffs. What could 7-10 minutes do?
Be unfair.
um...other...players?
Of course the Pop conundrumum...other...players?
If Baynes isnt going to get playing time there is no way in this guy is. We gots that super Star errors... I mean Ayers to develop!
Where is this guy? Has he been on the bench?
If Thomas doesn't play today against GSW, I will have a hard time understanding what the Spurs are doing.
Rockin dem suits doe!
It reminds me of last year when they signed Baynes.
not da same tbh
It's pretty much like any other signing Spurs do during the season. Unless the player is a vet, they get little to no playing time....so yeah it's about the same.
