Greyhound bus doesn’t seem right, maybe something catchy like Ice Castle...
Hansborough was the last of the classic college player, before one and dones started ruling the college bball world. Now that that will be over, college bball will go back to these guys and the Tyler Ulises (small guys) and Jalen Brunsons (marginal talents) and the better talents will go G League or pro pretty much right away at 18/19. NCAA will be the land of Tyler Hansboroughs again.

Poor mans bruce bowen in the hoouse!
Solid pickup. He can do a little bit of everything and can be used prominently in a lot of matchups.
Dante "the real Centerpiece" Cunningham, tbh.
The bus pic was funny lmao
he look like tech n9ne
That's a great point
And the Spurs, with only the 37th pick, got Dejuan Blair. Not bad.
The centerpiece is only 31. how many years left in his prime do you think he has? could be the next Bowen... the rate he's going he's gonna have jersey retired.
Liked his cutting and when he's hitting 3's - obviously that helps his value. Must've earned some trust from the coaching staff, played 38 minutes, rare for a player new to the system to get that many minutes this early.
Competent ball mover but doesn't really dribble much. He's viewed as the least threatening starter so often gets left open, so he either shoots on spot ups or cuts to the rim when his defender isn't looking.
@thinking Cunningham is so good based on one game..
i hope he can can maintain it though..especially his defeats and 3pt shooting..
Dude suffers because of the lack of a true PnR guard. It's his bread and butter offensively and he gets nothing on the Spurs, just a bad fit due to personnel. Spurs are also 29th in transition scoring.
He'd be much better on a team with a PnR PG. I was hoping DDR could be his PnR mate but apparently not yet. Spurs's 2nd and third best APG guys are their centers Aldridge and Gasol, so Poeltl just doesn't fit unfortunately.
So Dante Cunningham is the player that gets spursfans excited now?
Wow..how the mughty have fallen.
Yay, Cunni ain't no pussy.
Applesauce still trying hard.
Wow.... what a bargain the Spurs have found!Just to be clear, tonight he was 15pts/7reb/2ast/2blk/1stl in 37 mins on 5/8 (63%) FG, 3/5 (60%) 3PT, 2/2 FT.
Just needs to simplify his game! Previously, he didn't know where to spot up for his shots. He's now getting it!
Metu just needs to mimic what Dante is doing and Spurs will have a very solid front court defensively.

honestly, if the Spurs keep up this defense he will get NBA All-Defensive considerations by the end of the season
His value on offense really comes down to hitting open 3's and cutting to the rim when his defender's head is turned.
Defensively, there has been good results; of the 8 players that have played 120 minutes (at least 15 mpg) he's 3rd best with a DRtg of 109 and has +11 Net Rtg.
He really looked good last night. If he can keep providing the 'D' and can get a steal or two and ditto with the blocks and can make 2-4 shots a night to keep the other team honest then I feel good with him as the starter at the 3. We hae plenty of scoring from the other four starters.
More useful than Kawhi last year.
Honestly, Spurs can find easily find cheap contracts from free-agency and convert them into useful assets. What the Spurs have not done is sign them long enough so they could get value on a trade. Imagine if Boban, Simmons, Dedmon were tradeable assets? The problem with PATFO is when a players value rises, they just let them walk instead of a trade one year before they walk.
In hindsight though, Spurs should have re-signed Belinelli instead of having him walk. That was a big time mistake that could have cost us 2015 championship.
Whoa, man. We got torched by Donkic earlier this week, who isn't even an elite SF yet.
I like that when he is open he does not hesitate to shoot the three. He really looks like a player built to play in the Spurs system.
