Pittman went to UT right there in Austin. He'd be an attendance draw.
That's why you're a message board jerkoff and not a GM.

I hear they are keeping thomas, and Dawson is not signing overseas
what? they have Luke Zeller again? that dude is gonna ride the bench while Pittman gets good minutes. I don't see how Zeller is still in the league, any league.
I'm sure he'll stay through the showcase at least. Anyway Zeller and now Dawson have three point range so they can both play with Pittman.
Hopefully these moves will help bring some roster stability so the team can actually play together a bit. Only two players have appeared in all 14 games so far. As far as the Spurs are concerned I believe the only Toro they think might fit into their future plans at this point is Kabongo.
I would love for the spurs to get rid of joseph or de colo and sign this kid. very long and athletic. he is a 6'8" with a 7' wing span. definitely the type of backup SF we have been looking for. and if he has improved his "J" then that is an added bonus. he is good defensively.
Well aren't we all.
btw, Dune is
So is soccer.
San Antonio Spurs @spurs
[RELEASE] Spurs assign De Colo to @austintoros: nba.com/spurs/news/140…
Toros play tonight at 5:30 pm CST
Don't they have to call Thomas back up now? Seems a perfect time to see what he can do in the big leagues now...
Spurs don't play till tomorrow, so even if the Spurs planned on calling Thomas back up, they would wait till after the Toros game tonight so he can get some minutes.
De Colo being assigned is somewhat interesting this time. He has always been send to the Toros for some of their home games. The travel to Austin is easy and it's allowed him to stay in shape.
This time, it's different since he will go to Reno where the D-League has his usual showcase. GMs and FO members of other NBA teams will be in attendance. So, it likely isn't a conditioning stint but a sting to create some interests around De Colo for a potential trade.
I guess pairing them is their idea then but, in a league played a very high pace and with a lot of small ball, it's going to be tough for them defensively.
I get the feeling they are trying to shop de Colo but at the same time they are hoping he will breakthru. If spurs are going to move them I would suspect moving one of them asap, getting long in the year
Wonder if Pittman is staying in shape and improving. Given his size and athleticism he could be a nice tradeable piece or bench big
I don't doubt that. A lot of players just got assigned for the showcase, so other teams might have the same idea.
Unless one or more of the players involved have nonguaranteed contracts that can be dumped in the next few days, there isn't a huge incentive to get small deals done so quickly.
We'll find out today at 5:30 on YouTube. The game will also be shown on NBAtv tomorrow at 11AM.
Zeller and Thomas start, Pittman and Dawson off the bench.
Pittman credited with four blocks in three minutes. Probably got one of Dawson's.
watching now from the link by ace3g. good to see De Colo getting some burn. wish he would get more with Spurs but I guess too much logjam.
hilarious with the audio feed, since crowd is so quiet and nonexistent, you can hear all the "mutha as" and other jive.
Damn. Brownlee dude dunked that one nasty on Dawson
Yeah the fourth one looked to be Dawson's
