    the main issue with baynes is his foul rate, but i think that will improve with time and experience. keep giving him minutes while we're rolling

    Nice story. Make up a bull definition of 'rotation' then grandstand on it. 12 mpg is part of the rotation as it is 1/4 the game. That is about what Baynes has been getting in the 2nd and 3rd quarters consistently the last 4+ games. That was the role that Ayers had up until the end of the RRT and you considered him to be part of the 'rotation.'

    At this point your ship has sank and you are trying to call low tide, no tide. Whatevs. Your boy is relegated to garbage time and Baynes is now the 4th big. It is what it is.
    ?? Not trying to position Ayres above Baynes.

    You can twist it any way you want, but neither of them are in the rotation, Lumpy. You'll find that out in about two weeks, when both of their hides will be nailed solidly to the bench.

    Meh last year Bonner was supposed to be out of the rotation and ended up playing plenty of minutes... De Colo was said have won the backup PG position a few days before the POs, that came from Pop's own mouth and then he went with Cojo instead...

    Imo one of Mills/Beli is gonna sit on the bench way longer than they're hoping... On the other hand it's very open for a 4th big...

    Baynes is obviously getting the 4th big minutes. Spin it how you want.

    Baynes = not perfect, but a solid banger. Just what the doctor ordered.

    Yes... I like that he sends out punishment on the opposing team.

    At the post-game interview of Pop the other night, he brought up the improved play of Baynes himself when the questioners didn't. Pop is usually so sparing with praise of players, I thought it was a very nice gesture on his part to give the kid some props.

    So in other words, he's a poor man's Steve Adams. Yes, I would have to agree. Don't expect too much playing time from him in the postseason but hope he plays well enough down the stretch to end up on an NBA roster next season.

    Spurms have only 2 bigs on the roster for next season in ter and Tammy; if Banes doesn't up the rest of the year, I suspect he'll get resigned here.

    You'd take Bayns over Diaw?

    No. But what if Fatty goes somewhere else? I don't think he will but even then, only 3 bigs for the Spurms if Tubs comes back.

    I'm certainly not opposed to seeing him back in a Spurs uniform next season for the right price. There's probably a good chance if he can prove himself over the next month. The Spurs actually have 4 bigs on the roster heading into next season if you count Daye and since they rarely buy players out or make trades, its pretty apparent that we'll be stuck with him.

    That hungry 's a SF. He's been playing SF his whole career, unless Pop wants to turn him into a new Matt Boner minus Boner's.....interior "defense".

    EDIT: just saw on hoopshype that next year for Daye is a team option. so we'll see...

    It's $250K guaranteed for Daye, unless they keep him past 30 June, and then it becomes fully guaranteed, per Sham sports.

    You're also forgetting that your favorite PF is also under contract for next year.

    Primarily, he is a SF but he's had some experience at PF with Detroit and Memphis so it wouldn't surprise me to see him used at both depending on the matchup. You know how Pop loves versatility.

    NBA reference has Daye's contract as partially guaranteed for $250,000 if waived before July 30, 2014, fully guaranteed after that. I don't know which site is more accurate.

    Pft, chump change. If he sucks, it's easier to dump him for a quarter of his full $1 million+ that he's owed.
