i suggest you focus on the timberwolves. they're a team who's roster moves make sense. also, the added bonus of a pending told you so moment. when kg lays a big steamy cherry on top of this whole hot fudge richard jefferson season sundae.
this guy's good. He'll give us 20 solid minutes on nights when we rest guys, and most importantly, can guard 2 positions well. Sad for Williams, but he never looked significantly better than the garbage time guys on any other team. Most importantly, I think it's good to have character guys like Butler & West around. Good influence on Kawhi, Anderson, and the young guys.
My only problem is that it makes Bonner's actual skillset 100% redundant.
NVM, you're right. I must have seen his FG% and assumed it was his 3p%.Good riddance.
Reggie sucked his entire tenure. Rasual can give good games; but I don't consider him a good pick-up.
You consider a as a good pick-up
Thanks
Beverley is a motha in' defensive point guard who is no better than CoJo, there is no need to put a wing defender on him whatsoever. Teams are going to dare him to beat them but if he makes his shots you just tip you hat & take the L. The Rockets are almost unbeatable when they are making their 3s & you saw how the Clippers lead evaporated in Gm 6 when Josh Smith was strockin' it like Peja.
Rasual is the next Daye.
Mormon rage.
If Butler can give us ~10 mpg at the level he played at last year in Washington, it'll be a pretty solid pickup.
Jimmer is a poor man's De Colo, though. So when you look at it that way, I guess I could understand where you're coming from.
Butler shouldn't see any time. The Spurs have 10 guys who are going to get fewer minutes than they should. They'll only need to play him if someone get hurt. And even then, only because Pop really wants to keep minutes down. Anderson looking so good is going to marginalize West as it is.
It's not his shot. It's his consistent out of control play.
Heard from my sauces that Sul is already adapting better than West and Aldridge in practice. He plays calm and confident and I also think he could be a good role model for Kawhi, Green, SlowMo. Im a Bonner supporter and its okay for me if he replaces Matty in the 2nd/3rd lineup. Butler is still fast and can still make shots. Good thing he chose the Spurs
I think he gets his minutes when starters and rotation guys are getting the night off.
No. Butler has stuck in this league and carved out a career. Daye didn't. You need to stop being depressed about Jimmer. A stretch 3/4 is more valuable for the Spurs. I'd bet that the minute Butler agreed to come to training camp, the Spurs wanted him to make the roster. They've liked him for years.
That's true. I just kind of picture him filling Bonner's role from last year (played in 70 games, a little over 10 mpg), but I guess with the added depth at the 4/5 + KA looking like a competent NBA player, there simply won't be enough minutes to go around.
Jimmer was junkbox. Butler lot beter. Good job front office
Most of us can only wish man, that guy is like a roach and he is never going away until he retires. If he wants to play he is guaranteed a spot.
not really. Jimmer is a rich mans Ricky Rubio
Definitely the right move in my opinion. Congrats to Butler. That fills the hungry vet role ala Barry, Finley, Big Dog, Beli, etc...
Championship is coming.
We're not talking about old Butler; we're talking about old old Butler. Dude's wheels are due to fall off. His defense is suspect; and he often doesn't have his legs on his shots. Spurs had someone who could make FTs at the end of games and who could find his way into the system w/o the physical duress in Jimmer.
Jimmer would've paid huge dividends. Spurs made a bad decision. They must not be very confident in Simmons/Anderson to add Butler.
Nothing to do with Simmons. Butler was better than Jimmer. , Reggie Williams was better than Jimmer. If Fredette can have a De Colo-like career overseas, it would be a huge win for him.
