Tbh, basketball could really use an "errors" stat
That's because you watch them all the time and the bench actually plays minutes. Other teams have ty players as well, they often don't get many minutes and you probably don't ever watch them.
Spurs are 2nd in the conference, and a lot of that credit is to the bench. Most end-of-bench players are barely NBA quality.

no doubt the injuries in combination with Pop's wizardry gives the third tier players more playing time to showcase their basketball brilliance.
The Spurs are running the floor with 4 to 5 guys who could be labeled 15th guy. The Spurs don't normally start the season with 15 guys so consider him the 14th guy and that's just wasting a roster spot. The Spurs don't trade expirings unless they're unhappy and they don't do buyouts. He's basically replacing Bonner next year and he will be here for the duration of his contract. If he shoes how unhappy he is, the best the Spurs could get in return is basically table scraps. So much for actully upgrading players and positions. RC is just replacing junk with junk.
Btw, BEST case scenario is he's 15th guy on the roster. Worst case scenario is he plays 15+ minutes a game and craps the bed like so many 15th men on the Spurs roster, seeing rotational minutes, have done before him.
It's pretty much the bud of a joke when the trade deadline/speculation thread starts and everybody starts talking about how the Spurs are going to trade in some of their useless junk for a productive player and then reality sets in hours before the deadline that it's impossible.
Right. Funny how people thought we would actually get a useful player without giving up our first rounder. Team hopefully thought the buyout market would be more lucrative than scraps it could pick up in a trade. Just glad they didn't give up any assets for Daye.
The guy isn't even that bad. Considering no Training camp, and scarce practices. I mean the first game he appeared in, he started lol. We've definitely had some worse players for the squad!.....The guy is athletic and that's something the spurs desperately need.
tru... If they cant find a foward I can see them goin wit him tbh

source: Knicks have agreed in principle to contract with Shannon Brown. That's in addition to already agreeing with Earl Clark.
Good! Must mean Spurs are really looking at the bought out guys.
Or I could be reading into this too much.

Beno bolted too soon. With Felton's problems, Beno could have gotten minutes in NY.
Funny how that scrawny looking never reported us getting Brown but as soon as an east coast team gets their hands on him, he's all over it. Oh well, hope we get Grainger now.
In the very least, it suggests he didn't feel the team wanted him back.
Brown was in no position to turn down any offer from any team.
Sounds like it's ten days for both him and Clark
Pretty crazy buyout days this season.
When Boylen was informed of Brown leaving the team, he reportedly asked, ''who? Is that the guy with the cornrows and freakish hands that doesn't say anything?"
Did anyone even know the Spurs released Brown?
It's not even on the spurs.com website.
Shannon Brown's short stint with the Spurs was one of the worst offensive stretches I've ever seen for a Spurs player, tbh..
^Tied with ayres imo
The Spurs website is always super late updating things. Either way I wasn't aware he was released either.
Right, ten day just expired.
they didn't really release him. he was only on a 10 day contract and it expired. the spurs decided to check out the buyout market instead of committing to brown, thankfully
TS%
Ayers .579
Brown .360
Really? I think T-Mac takes that Crown hands down.
That's not fair. He didn't have the opportunity Brown did.
