Did I miss something? Is there a chance Milutinov joins the sl team? Is he in Vegas like bertans is?
You didn't say that when Simms won us the 1st game, tbh...Needed Kyle TBH... that is what they lost.
Then again, I'm no fan of Simms either, tbh... just overall disappointed with both him and Kyle in that they've shown basically no improvement and the clock is ticking
Anyone know what the asking price on Jahlil Okafor is?
This, I can't bag on him right now. If he still plays stupid next SL or two then that's when you worry.
Yes, he's in Vegas. Paul Garcia reported seeing him
So McCaw was drafted later? I'm now really worried about the FO decision making. Let's hope Dedmon and Pau can deliver. I mean, LJC looks like a bust. Haven't seen Bertans yet.
Sigh.
Livio is worst player .
no BBIQ .
He's gonna play stupid the next couple of games, you worry when he still plays stupid next year
I know you are just trolling, but that play doesn't happen without that Kyle pass though.. or without Kyle help defense on Dijon that forced a TO to tie the game before that play either. You keep on hating all you want. lol You will be proven wrong.You didn't say that when Simms won us the 1st game, tbh...

i hope
Livio is not an NBA player. Looked like garbage out there. Crappy pick in a crappy draft.
I thought Murray played pretty well, decision-wise that is. He showed improvement in this area. If he would of made half of his shots everyone would be saying he played well. He just missed open shots. It happens. The fact that he attacked the rim and drew fouls was a positive as well. Last game he settled for floaters too often and even shot a couple this game. He's playing Spurs ball right now. There will be a learning curve. He's use to having the ball in his hands and creating when he's in and being a volume shooter. All his looks tonight were in the flow of the offense. First game he had twenty, he was taking it upon himself to make something happen. That is clearly not what the Spurs want from him right now, which makes sense cause you don't want to inflate his ego and have him thinking he's there already.
GSW's FO had the foresight of paying around $2 million to pick him.
Maybe PATFO really couldn't do much to get him, since they have their own pile of stashed trash to sort through first.
McCaw was an early second pick.. I want to say around 35-36?? GSW paid cash for the pick.
Yup have to hope for Dedmon, Pau and Bertans. I have hope in Kyle TBH. Him shooting that 3 is huge. ElNono hiting on Kyle, but him and Manu going to be like this:
although Forbes is small SG , I like him .
Actually, I expect incessant ing from fatheadfan on how "he can't play with Manu", and "Manu and Kyle are not a good fit", which is mostly what I heard last season, and why I was hoping to see more off-the-ball play from Kyle.McCaw was an early second pick..

But I haven't seen it. Still hoping to be surprised.
Are the Spurs going to just gift LJC a roster spot?
Brogdon would've contributed almost immediately. The Spurs don't need someone flashy at point guard. Just a guy who has high BBIQ, can get the ball to our new Big 3 (Kawhi, LMA and Gasol), and can defend 3 or 4 positions without being victimised by GSW's attack on mismatches.
The Long and Short Of It: You can see Stokes' good points, but also see the problems his lack of height brings.
Thoughts on tonight's SL game:
Not so fast: Dejounte Murray isn't going to pull down 9 boards on a regular basis, and Bryn Forbes isn't going to hit every 3 he looks at. Be careful of snap judgments.
Old School: Erazem Lorbek. I wish I had seen him play when he was at Michigan State. In the 70's?
Good Things Don't Come in 3's: Livio Jean Charles. Never trust a player with three first names. Or a 6'9" player with less than 3 RPG.
The Future Looks Bright: Dejaounte Murray. 19 year-old players who are NBA-ready go in the lottery. But Austin is really nice in the Fall.
Who?: Olivier Hanlan.
Same As It Ever Was: CJ Williams hits 3-pointers... except when he doesn't. His 33% didn't cut the mus in Dijon last year. It won't this year either.
mings and Goings: Will mings won't get enough minutes in SL to even see if he can get better. Don't give up on the dream.
Deja Vu: Ryan Arcidiacono. Seems like he had a little more at ude last season. And his name was Jimmer.
Yup I agree. I liked Brogdon a lot. He was also older and right in the window of our youngest guys. Apparently FO went entirely the other way with an upside pick. I mean we can clearly see Dijon has incredible quick first step and an aggressive mentality. Apparently that is what they wanted. They were looking for "star potential". Right now it is very much unrealized... but they can hopefully help the guy realize it. As others have said Dijon is too young. I am going to let Spurs work their magic and stay hopeful for him.
Reality is that guard play is important in the league and we don't have quickness. Simmons is the best athlete. He's going to be 27 to start the season and a FA. I am not even sure if the FO even visualizes committing to him past this season. I guess he's going to have to show up in the season and earn a contract but I guess they were definitely looking for a slasher if we pay attention to the profile.
Actually, he strikes me as a hard worker, not somebody full of himself. I know there's a million problems with him, starting with his height, but I think he's one of the few players you can rescue from this team, to develop and see if there's something more there.
"Popovich could coach a masterpiece season and Kawhi could win the MVP"...this is what I keep telling myself.
Or it could be a long season. Spurs will still win 50, but point guard depth and front court depth is scary. Fragile on the wing too. Simmons is what he is. A Manu or Green or Parker injury will hurt more than usual this year.
I don't think that will be the case... wow you are incredibly negative!
bc fathead is shooting the 3. Part of the reason he was a poor off the ball player is that he was not a shooter and the Spurs drafted him knowing that. Unfortunately he didn't improve on that shot quick enough b4 Spurs needed minutes from him, but him shooting from 3 opens up the possibilities of what he can do. The other thing is that I think he was meant to play as a stretch 4 anyways, which the Spurs need him to do now. I think Manu and Kyle were starting to play well together when Kyle was a 4 bc Tim got the bad knee... but then Manu got the nutcracked and that was that. I thought when Manu got back Pop went to too much experimenting with K.Martin who was trash and frankly didn't get on guys who were really going to play in the rotation enough, like Boris, who was allowed to coast the last 2 months of the season... I am not going to cast shadow on the possible fit or bad fit bc Kyle plays very well with JSimms TBH.. you are just Mr. glass if half empty
