[QUOTE=Spurtacular;8324894]Over simplification, dude. Had the Spurs kept Jimmer, his ceiling was not fringe player.]
again, what are you basing this on? his play in the minor league in which anyone who's ever gotten a call up has dominated?
i'm honestly trying to understand your fascination with him.
That proves absolutely nothing. , I can state that same goal. What does his opinion of himself have to do with anything?
i'll admit i've been mostly skimming the last few pages, but i don't recall anyone saying it was impossible. Massively improbably at this point maybe, but not impossible. Some team could lose 3 point guards to season ending injuries i guess.
you do realize one had a fully guaranteed contract and one didn't right?
[QUOTE=Spurtacular; Ray will never be anything more than "serviceable.'[/QUOTE]
so we're going to continue presenting opinion as fact?

Great catch and shoot on a curl for a three on an out of bounds play; and then the defender had to guard Jimmer at 30 ft, and he blew by him for a 17 ft pull-up on the next play; ya ain't gettin' that with Ray freakin' McCallum, gents.
How is me giving a bold opinion supposed to be a fact? That's a rhetorical question; you needn't answer.
There would've been a marginal cost to keeping Jjimmer over Ray; and given how stacked the Spurs are/were and that they were up against the cap, that was possibly the deciding factor. All the same, I'm saying keeping Jimmer over Ray would have left the Spurs a better team.

Jimmer (+26) with a vintage pull-up from three feet behind the line, giving him 17 pts on 7-12 shooting and 2-3 from behind the arc.
Game in progress: Jimmer with a pretty (fast) spin move and pop (set up by his penetration throughout the night). Worth checking out at the 4:29 mark in the third. Then a couple possessions later, a great drive and left handed finish by Jimmer.
Jimmer (+27) is up to 21 pts on 9-14 shooting.
Posts #500 and #501 in this thread for you.
Lead's too big; Jimmer sitting out the end of the third and all of the fourth.
Nice; Let's have bimillennial celebration.
. I had tuned out of the game; but when I looked the crowd were throwing a ton of give-away-mini-balls onto the court to protest the reffing at half way through the fourth.
Lol watching this game or Spurs/Clippers? WTF?

Thanks.
In the latest game, Jimmer goes for a modest 19 on 8-14 FG, 3-6 3FG.
Next game is tomorrow.
Good game from him. I think Jimmer has found his niche. He can be like a player-coach in the D-league, helping other guys that have a chance to make it in the NBA move on up the ladder. He's getting up there in age, so it would be a good transition for him from there to assistant coach in the D-league.
I think you've found your niche as an ST troll. It's not much; but maybe that's your ceiling.
Spurtacular you don't still think this bum can be a rotation player in the NBA do you? Cmon give it up man.
Why would I think that? Jimmer can put up 30 on any given night in the association.
Jimmer has had 233 given nights in the association and never scored more than 24 points in a game. Only three games of 20 or more.
How many games has he played more than 30 minutes?
Let's assume it's a very small number. That would also argue against your proposition.
5 of 233 with at least 30 minutes.
It doesn't. The Kings were a terrible organization that derailed Jimmer's career. He should've been routinely been playing 30 plus minute games. That didn't happen.
And the Bulls? And the Pelicans? And the Spurs? And the 30 NBA teams who won't sign Jimmer to a minimum contract.
Yeah, it's a conspiracy to keep Jimmer from realizing his true potential.
Let it go already.
At one point in his rookie season, Jimmer was given 4 starts in a row; he averaged 16.5 ppg on a 30.7 mpg. He shot well and played well. He showed what he could do when the Kings committed. Unfortunately, they were/are a dysfunctional organization.
