Does this mean Blossomgame is a lock now?
How about you keep reading and find out?
im too edgy for that
plus he hasn't shown enough to warrant another look. can he become a decent defender? maybe. but we need a bigger wing defender, not a 6'4 dude with confidence issues
BaBye. Good citizen, mediocre player.
The fact that people are lamenting this move shows that SpursTalk really just likes to .
Paul was awful. He couldn't score. He couldn't defend. He's undersized as a SG, doesn't have any playmaking ability, and can't shoot.
He averaged 2 points and 1 board in 64 games. His Per-36 stats suck. His Per 100 Possession stats suck. His Advanced stats suck.
And don't give me that "he needs more time" crap, because he is already 27. He was only able to average 14.5 points in 26 minutes in the GLeague, and he isn't built for the NBA.
If he comes back, he is not going to be the next Jonathon Simmons. He is just going to be the same Brandon Paul.
I agree the team needs bigger wings. But they'll actually need to make sure that guy is better, not just different. Nothing wrong with making guys prove it in camp.
Better than Porker
Paul started off the year really well on both ends. It's very possible that whomever they get won't be as good as Paul was then. I don't think anyone wanted to guarantee his salary. But the role he failed to fill still needs to be filled by someone, and that guy needs to be better.
They can't all be Gary Neal. Good luck, dude, wherever you go.
Paul had 3 good games a Spur, and 90% of that was garbage time when the Spurs were either up or down by 15+. Otherwise, he was pretty much a non-factor out there. He wasn't god awful...but he wasn't anything to write home about, either.
The Spurs could get similar production from just about any GLeaguer with a similar build that they could sign. Or, more preferably, they could give Lonnie those minutes and let him try to develop...he can't be any worse than Paul was.
Especially when he will be the starting 2 gaurd.I'd rather they have kept Paul and cut Forbes.
Bryn and Pop's crush on him is gonna up so much on this team next season, it's almost comical tbh
You mean some players can actually defend shoeless players?
Man, Spurs really don't care about perimeter defense anymore
But, really, I'm fine with this decision. Opens the door for players with higher ceilings ... and is yet another sign that Manu is coming back.
that and he kinda sucked.
PATFO was aiming for CP3, we got BP3 and convinced fans that’s a better deal. Oh well, Detroit or Griz will get him
What do you guys think about Scientology?
You want to pay CP3 max money?
There was a little bit of hype when first signed. Thought maybe he had a chance to do something. Unfortunately this dude failed himself. Never really showed that he was “hungry” for a chance. I hate seeing these marginal NBArs come in at garbage time and play without urgency. Yes the outcome has been determined at that point.... but guys like that should be trying to play their asses off like Manu would. Those guys should never stop auditioning for a job. Oh well zero loss to the team.
Neal was incredibly impactful, down to the Finals. Took him out of total obscurity.
Looks like gonna go with Nellie-ball?
But ya, he had to go, IMO, with Manu coming back OR retiring. There is still too many guards and while BP had potential to be a good defender it was not like it’s a sure thing. But man, I really have no idea what SA is doing with this roster even with them having no real choice with the Kawhi trade.
Perplexing decisions all around.

Spurs need a SF.
How about a name from the past. Jarell Eddie. He is as good as anyone for hitting the three, and at 6-7 he has the size. Got to reach into the bucket to find one.
Agree......
