    Pop is scared less of giving Daye any minutes and him succeeding, tbh. He doesn't want another reason for his pet project Errors to lose playing time.
    This is so ing dumb. Pop doesn't give a about Errors. He's already shown signs of giving Baynes more minutes.

    Good sign that he accepted the assignment. Next season will be his last chance of staying in the league. With his limited skillset and Bonner hopefully being gone, the Spurs will be his best chance of prolonging his career tbh.
    Exactly. As long as they're pleased with his work ethic and feel like he has a decent enough IQ, he probably replaces Bonner as the secondary stretch four, as well as giving the active roster the depth SF it clearly needs.

    He looks like a better all-around player than I thought. He knows how to use his height to contest shots and get off his own shot. He needs to work on posting up, but he can clearly have an advantage there. He seems like a worse offensive player than I thought, however.

    I dunno. He looked like the best player on the floor, but he didn't look like a 25-year-old five-year vet should look against d-leaguers. As I said, I wish he had been on the team earlier. I don't think I've seen enough to guarantee his next year if I were the Spurs.

    What happened to Josh Howard?
    His last season playing good basketball was almost 5 years ago. That's what happened.

    Nice stats. Yes, that's a double-double.

    He definitely handles the ball very well for a 6'11" player! He took 12 shots from free throw and missed once, that tells you he can shoot quite well.

    Oversized guards like him (and Boris Diaw) are going to do very well within the Spurs system.

    He was obviously rusty in this game with the T.O.

    I hope he keeps playing more for the Toros and plays in the position where the Spurs expect him to play. Unfortunate for this game, he was playing at the PF position and not the SF position.

    Thanks, but that's no answer...did he retired? Was waived? Hasta la vista, baby?
    Still with the Toros but deactivated. He was that bad.

    What s the difference against the Vipers?

    Injured, actually -- but looks done for NBA purposes.

    I get that the D league is just a tool for the NBA, but it must suck from a compe ion standpoint that higher level guys come and go. Then again, if you take the D league seriously enough to care about the season, you're probably not ever going to see the next level anyhow.

    Nando was willing to go, and then asked for a trade. I expect Daye will do the same. It's how the Spurs sign a guy and then dump him.... by having him request to be traded after being D-leagued.

    I guess, but that didn't happen with Baynes or Joseph. I don't recall its happening before.

    If Daye takes advantage and shows he's got game, good for the Spurs. If Daye doesn't, and gets offended over it, good for the Spurs.

    I think if he hadn't gone to Austin, he would have definitely been dumped. They want to take a look to decide about next year. His deal is only partially guaranteed. If they cut him by 30 June, they only have to pay $250K.

    Spurs currently have 14 players under contract, including Daye. They have three FAs, plus Daye as a cheap cut, to make decisions on. They also have a waiting list in Europe, plus a first rounder this year. Lots of variables.

    Ah, well with DeColo, he knew he would never be in a regular rotation as long as Manu, Marco, Green and Mills were there and healthy. Daye has a tiny shot at being the 13th man this season since he theoretically fills a need -- but he can't ask for anything but waivers right now. Doing that would be kind of dumb for a couple of reasons.

    Dumb move by De Colo. The only team that was going to give him a chance was the Spurs.

    what's your impression of Daye's play last night? you always have a great knowledge of d-league play, so am curious about your assessment if you watched the game.
