No
Do you guys enjoy watching Cory Joseph play basketball, tbh?..
No
I was on the Cory Joseph bandwagon last year, but that's because Patty was awful last season and Nando isn't an NBA player.
But Joseph was painful to watch tonight. Hurry back, Danny Green, at least.

No... Man we got some players here that might not even make a d-league team.
no. I remember the first game I saw him play in, all hunched over and being clueless. Nothing has changed.
lol at people riding TIMVP
op = notorious cojo hater spreading cojo hate.................. cojo will be needed in the playoffs............ mills 1 & done possessions will not work.......................
He's been the most bi-polar player on the Spurs the last few years.
I liked his potential on the defensive end, but to answer you question, I'll just say "no".
Harlem, it's amazing that we agree on so many Spurs-related things but see completely different things concerning Joseph.
I've enjoyed seeing him play recently. Sure he's erratic and shouldn't be playing as much as he is, but I definitely feel he should continue to start until Green AND Leonard come back.
I don't even think Joseph is erratic, tbh, I just hate his complete lack of aggression..he's always hesitant and appears afraid to make mistakes, it makes him way too predictable on offense IMO..
He moves way too slowly IMO..a player like Diaw can still thrive without constant aggression due to his size and natural talent, but a fringe player of Joseph's nature needs to be aggressive and put pressure on the defense..he doesn't do that IMO..
I remember when we drafted him everyone one was like why did they draft a late second round player in the first round?
Shannon Brown > Cory Oseph
Corey used to look great when Gary Neal and DeColo were getting the bulk of the backup PG minutes... it's not that he regressed, he just never made any strides (unlike Mills). I also think playing with TD/TP it's even worse for him. He's not aggressive by default, but with those two on the floor, he's pretty much invisible.
good that he'll be here for another season....
His lack of aggression is a problem. I remember seeing him play live against the Clippers a few years ago, and he had a lot more moxie. He was challenging Chris Paul right in front of me one possession after Pop waived the white flag. Dunno what happened to that confidence.
He's actually not a bad offensive player skill-wise. He has a variety of moves and is actually pretty quick when he starts going. But he acts as if any shot he takes must be at the expense of a better one from someone else. That seems like an easy thing to fix, though. Pop just needs to tell him to act like it's the summer league and just attack whenever he touches the ball.
Disappointed with Cory's progression after a solid playoff run last season tbh. His stroke has actually improved since came in the league and you can tell he's worked hard to learn the system but it looks like his ceiling is a Jacque Vaughn type of career which isn't terrible for him. But no, it's not enjoyable to watch.
Is that what you call what he's doing on the court?
Joseph is an NBA stop-gap. Nothing more.
You can put him out there to play minutes and pretend to be an NBA player. Some defenses may even respect him enough on the court to guard him.
That's pretty much the only value he offers to the Spurs (or any team) at this point.
He ing blows, I've never thought this scrub was any good. Dude is the most hesitant mofo I have ever seen on a basketball court
All I ask for, from Cory Joseph is that he plays well enough to be trade bait. And maybe the Spurs could get a waived Andre Miller or some such. I have seen no improvement from Cory Joseph from his rookie season. Very tentative on offense and good on defense, but overall a minus.
Every year there is something the Spurs do that make you cringe. In the past the combo of Blair and Bonner at the same time was one of times. This year it seems anytime CoJo is on the floor is in the cringe moment for 2014.
He reminds me of a kid my son used to bring to the house. The kid was shady as , and when adults were around, he always had that same look Joseph has, that "I'm planning something criminal and you don't know what it is". You know how little juveniles get around new adults, they hide behind other kids, they have that smirk that's both uncomfortable and sly, and they try to go unnoticed. Their head hangs a bit like a mutt.
That's how I see Joseph. His game is ragged at best, and I just don't like the guy.
Cory Joseph..... blows? How this scrub was bumped ahead of Mills in the depth charts last season is still a mystery to me. It was clear to me by mid-year (last season) that the 2nd unit functioned infinitely better with Mills in the lineup yet Pop buried Mills on the bench in favor of this hunchback. Not that it mattered. Anyone who was paying attention and knows how Pop operates should have known the minute Pop started ing around with Gary Neal as the point guard that all bets were off and neither one was going to ever see a minute of action in any game that mattered.
