De Colo and Thomas assigned to Toros ( Dec 21)

[jeebus]

hilarious with the audio feed, since crowd is so quiet and nonexistent, you can hear all the "mutha as" and other jive.

Part of me thinks why the Spurs play noise/music non stop during regular season games.

Trajan Langdon, Spurs scout?

De Colo playing well except his outside shot. Thomas is more quiet like it has been the case in his previous D-League games. His 3 point shot has been kinda broken lately.

De Colo playing well except his outside shot. Thomas is more quiet like it has been the case in his previous D-League games. His 3 point shot has been kinda broken lately.

I don't know anything about his shot form past or present, but they mentioned at half time their trying to really convert him to a stretch four. Is it possible the coaching staff are making adjustments to it?

Thomas has never been a 3 point shooter in a any kind before this season. He started to make 3 pointers in D-League this year and after only 2 games Spurs signed him up. He has continued to shoot very well 3's with Toros until recently. He is a combined 2/11 from 3 in his last 4 four games.

On the season, Thomas is 18/38 from behind the arc. His new found ability to hit these shot is the big reason why Spurs are likely sticking with him for the whole year.

Ridiculous Upside ‏@RidicUpside 3h
Malcolm Thomas is one of the most effective players in NBADL history but he also does all the little things well.

[tim_duncan_fan]

The number that sticks out to me about Thomas' game tonight are the 6 asts.

He had some crucial O-boards too. We should play the man.

We know he's good for 20 and 10 in the dleague on an average night. Nothing else to see there, really, unless they want to start testing his perimeter game. Personally, I want to see how he does defensively perimeter-wise.

It's not a matter of what they can see in the d-league, it's getting him some game conditioning before he's ready to play here. The development staff is probably working with him on things that you don't want him to test out in live NBA action if you're a contender. Consider this his extended training camp.

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA1m
Spurs informed forward Malcolm Thomas that he won't be waived today, guaranteeing his contract for season, league sources tell Yahoo.

[silverblackfan]

NBA TV is showcasing the game right now.

[ace3g]

[TheGoldStandard]

In a month or so rosters will start to get locked down especially during the road trip so he needs to see some playing time soon. Won't know what you have unless you just go with it, can't be that bad at 2 or 3 minute intervals

[ajballer4]

Is the showcase just a bunch of games being played or is it an actual tournament?

And also do they just broadcast the games on youtube, but don't have them up for watching later?

Buncha games.

You can watch them on YouTube later as well.

Not happening to the Toros this time, but if the game is shown live on NBAtv, it often isn't ever on YouTube.

[ace3g]

Toros have another game at 5:30 tonight

[Bruno]

Not a good game for Thomas against Maine. He has lost his perimeter shoot and he got frustrated. De Colo was relatively good but not great.

When De Colo isn't on the court, Toros offense is so ugly. The Tre'Kelley trade is really hurting them.

[ChumpDumper]

I'm catching up from a late start, but Malcom and Nando started out strong tonight.



You can move the cursor back to the start during the live cast. Lots of action early.

[ace3g]

Thomas just tweaked an ankle, walked it off and played through it but after a timeout, he is on the bench.

[ace3g]

back in, just had a nice interior dunk

Thanks for the link ChumpDumper!

Toros have a game at 3 pm

Paul Garcia PS @PaulGarciaPS
Per #Spurs: The Spurs have recalled guard Nando De Colo from the Austin Toros of the NBA Development League (1/12).

Toros have a game tonight: about to start
