Oh Lord, you haven't been around Spurstalk if you think this thread stops when Jimmer gets cut.
Yea? Is that what your right hand told you?

He has a ridiculous hitch in his shot
Why do people care how many pages a thread goes when it's actual basketball discussion? IMO that's what is great about being around fans; we care about every detail.
i thought he wasn't even gonna make the team this year. So how could he be insurance for after that?
I think the final roster spot is Butler's to lose. Jimmer will need to have a great camp or one of our guards have a prolonged injury to enhance his chances of making the team. He has a legitimate shot because of his shooting ability.
I don't think the last spot is for Jimmer I think the last spot is for butler.

Down to Butler and Bonner. I would make Bonner a Coach, sign Butler, and if injuries take place, then suit up Bonner.
Bye Williams Thomas Sykes Ndoye Bonner
Bonner has less upside then Jimmer, Simmons, or Butler (even at this point in his career)
Do you wait for Pop to tell you how you feel about everything?
right, pop would say, "he sucks" or "yeah we paid him money, but he's getting cut."
Patty isn't a FA in 2016, but with your general overall lack of knowledge, we can let this one slide.
An interesting thought: Bonner vs. Butler. I don't know if Pop would pull the trigger on getting rid of Bonner for someone of only Butler's caliber.
LoL @ mentioning upside & 35+ year olds in the same sentence.
kl rest...
Simmons is a skilled passer as Pop said and to people who watched SL they probably noticed he was able to make a lot of nice passes. His problems are turnovers based on some of the stats that were mentioned earlier on.
Butler over Bonner would be nice.
They got Anderson and Simmons for that.
[ ] Oh Pop must've seen something I didn't, he would know
[x] I'm right haha idiot! Listening to the coach, what a dumbass!
Right Pop would compliment a guy for two minutes off the cuff just to pay lip service to a D Leaguer
I saw plenty to make my own evaulation. I don't have to assume that my evaluation (and Simmons' d-league stats) is wrong simply because Pop has a different opinion. He can and has been wrong before, and there's plenty of time to see how Jonathon develops.
There are a couple of things to consider anyway when looking at my opinion in comparison with Pop's. Simmons has good court vision (knowing where multiple passing options are at any time), which is what Pop was talking about. But he also has a big TO problem, which is what I was talking about. Both of those things are part of being a good passer, but Simmons won't earn a rotation spot if he racks up the same TO numbers he did in the d-league, regardless of how many options he sees on the floor.
Simmons is not a one-read passer like Joseph, Green or Jimmer. So he has a lot of potential in that regard. But he isn't going to make the active roster based on his passing. He's not going to be the backup PG unless he really improves, but he could be a secondary ball-handler.
