Spurs sign Shannon Brown to 10-day contract

[szkorhetz]

exactly, brown is now the most athletic guy in the roster

That's why we won't get past the super-athletic teams like the Thunder or Clippers.

Thank God we got another PG. He's the perfect guy to be a backup PG in case Tony, Patty, Nando, and Cojo all go down.

Still waiting on a name Mr West.

Mickael Pietrus, James Johnson or Casspi. There are more.The Spurs needed someone that can play just for 10 minutes.

[TD 21]

The Spurs tried him over in Training camp, if I am not wrong. So, it isn't as if they didnt' get to see whether he was upto usefulness. Seriously, the Spurs' lack of due diligence to find a backup for Kawhi, is a bit odd, considering their general proficiency otherwise.

General proficiency otherwise? This is the same franchise that went the majority of the season two years ago with four bigs and with no true back SF three seasons ago.

They love being physically over matched by the contenders. When the Lakers were on top and they desperately needed size to contend with them, they constructed a big rotation with one player over 6-9. Now that they need size at SF and versatility at the forward spots period, they've built a team with 1 and 1/2 players fit that description.

Bringing in a NBA level talent at the perimeter when you're missing Green/Manu/KL is a solid move tbh.

[tholdren]

great sign.
1. we need a player who can get to the rim and ft line.
2. we need athletic players
3. we need hungry players

he fits the bill.

ppl cry about kl needing a sub, why? if his 10 minutes on bench without a "true" sf costs us a series then we weren't as good as we thought, or even close to a ring.

biggest takeaway from clips is how are blake and farmar in nba? im better than either.

[poop]

Funny how hes listed at 6-4 but hes shorter than parker on the court

[HI-FI]

I never liked Brown but not against him on the team since least he's athletic. Good move by Spurs.

[ace3g]

If his finger/hand injury is serious enough, might have to sign another 10 day guy tomorrow

[ElNono]

shortest NBA stint ever?

[Spurs_Be_Beastin']

he got poked in the eye and hurt his hand,
just bad luck tbh

[Chomag]

So what 6-2 guy are we signing next?

[ElNono]

So what 6-2 guy are we signing next?

dunno, but he'll probably start... DLeaguers must be super-excited now

[ElNono]

Shannon was too tall anyways

[Chomag]

Shannon was too tall anyways

[Johnny RIngo]

Most disappointing thing about Brown's injury is that we're going to continue to give Cory Joseph minutes

[timtonymanu]

Was it really that serious?! I didn't really pay attention.

Nothing wrong with that, we need someone who's willing to lay someone out if the situation arises. He's on our team now.

The solution is always more point guards.

You guys didn't notice Boris was our backup SF tonight?

[Dex]

You guys didn't notice Boris was our backup SF tonight?

I definitely did. There were a couple of lineups out there like Diaw-Ayers-Splitter or Diaw-Bonner-Splitter. Was weird to see the Spurs actually playing...big.

I wouldn't mind having two or three guys like that on the team

[Splits]

Miraculously, it's just a jammed finger and he won't miss time.

can we start Errors at the 2 and hope for a season ender?

[keepinitwill]

This move does not make sense. An undersized scoring guard is not what we need. We need a wing man that can defend. There are guys available like Mickael Pietrus and Josh Howard. Why don't we bring Maggette back in? We liked him enough to bring him to camp.
