Jimmer has been tentative about launching his shots; but he also hasn't played with great line-ups. I don't think Pop is going to make rash decisions based upon a few preseason games. Jimmer will settle into the system.
No, that's not the plan for Jimmer at all, at least it isn't what I would have in mind. My thought all along would be that they used Jimmer as a smarter version of Gary Neal, to hopefully become Patty or Marco .5 versions. I would assume that POP wants Jimmer to commit to finding himself looks, and knocking them down. But, it looks as if Jimmer won't make it/is playing scared.
Glad Tony is sitting this one out. Hopefully a bench player will emerge.

Hard to tell if Bonner will be cut. He's obviously under different rules that every other border-line Spur. May not seem to matter how bad he has played in the off-season.
Why would Bonner be cut? Spurs would not have signed him through Dec. plus if they had any significant intentions to maybe cut him before then. He's not going anywhere for the Rasual Butlers of the world.
Bonner is not a guy who needs much preseason reps. He stays ready to play his limited regular season minutes and plays hard in practice as such.
I don't see him getting cut, but he needs to shoot the 3 at a respectable rate. He just doesn't add anything else at this point. I don't expect him to play much either, but rest being awarded to Tim and possible injuries being around, there is a chance he could be needed to play a few games for some minutes here or there. He doesn't rebound and doesn't defend well at this stage, he's not a skilled passer. Like I said, I don't think he gets cut this early either, but he may be gone if they need his spot (to the front office, to the coaching staff, take your pick). He needs to contribute something.
Great game from fredette today.
I'm positive he'll make the team now..
Just killed it today
RIP

Autism bro. The spurs forum is full of people with critical levels of it.
This is going to be a tough one to spin.
Welp
He probably would have played if he were going to be cut...no?
Cut this scrub
Perhaps, PATFO shares some of your concerns; hence the only partial guaranteed money. They'll be evaluating and make a decision in December or so.
they already made decision.
I liked Jimmer, but it's obvious he is not making this roster. Two DNPs in the preseason. That's pretty much saying all that needs to be said. If you are a Jimmer fan, you better grab your Rockets tickets in the preseason, because that's the last chance you are going to see him in the NBA for at least the next year. Europe may do him well. He will get minutes to work on his game. I think he'll succeed over there. He's a great shooter, but he just doesn't have a well-rounded game.
I would say that he is cut based on the DNP today.
Jimmer Ferdette highlights vs Pistons Oct 14 2015...
So what is the deal, if he does get cut, with salary and how that affects SA and who they keep/pay?
I can't believe Mormontacular still thinks Jimmer is making the roster.
Cant believe that Spurs paid money for Bonner, McCallum, Anderson, so many others.
You guys are nuts. Pop just rests his core guys. He did the same with Aldrdige, Duncan, Ginobili, Parker, and Diaw. You can't burn Fredette out in meaningless preseason games.
So this is what my phone autocorrects to when I try to type Jimmer. Perfect.
Been hearing he will be cut tomorrow...
