Did they turn Fathead into a diamond? Aside from his skull being unbreakable..
Its called being optimistic you should try it maybe you will be a happier person. Who knows just my opinionpeople still believe this

I agree, he moves more fluidly than Cunningham and has much better handles.
He doesn't have the requisite NBA bulk. Going to get pushed around just like Bertans.
I guess you mean Anderson. Strangely enough the Spurs managed to turn him into a competent defensive player despite his lack of speed. The Spurs "system" may be grossly overhyped, but still, credit where credit is due.
Comes with a different opportunity cost. Moore doesn't cost them anything, either against the cap or in terms of a player already on the team. Not only do they retain the spot that Pon takes ups (which they can use for trades or whatever), but they can cut Moore at any time and sign another two-way player. I certainly don't think QP is so valuable that they had to avoid moving him or something, but I don't fault them for keeping his contract on the books rather than bringing Jones in. The Spurs didn't find guys like Danny Green and Patty Mills by signing washed-up d-league vets.
He shot 35% from 3, so his shot is apparently more accurate than your ty takes.Averaged 11 & 6 in 28 minutes last year in the G-League. He's a 6'8 power forward that can't shoot.
Terrence Jones is going off in the G-League and they bring this guy up
We are not talking about kyle, so stop making comparisons as well. Just makes you invalid
They did. Didn’t work out too well.
That's good. Is he a SF?
27k posts and not one of them was good. Coming for that Kobe all time misses record I see, bum.
He's apparently whatever F you want. His Basketball Reference stats call him a PF, but Wikipedia says SF, and ESPN just says F.
You can't learn being yanked cuz of mistakes.
Like his ass is gonna stayed glued to bench...
Depends on what you want. It is one of our best tank strategies.
not bad
He played the 4 and 5 in College but he has good handles and can get to the rim and finish at a high rate. He is also pretty good at help defense and has a springy jump which helps in put backs, rebounds, and blocks. He is as someone mentioned a mobile SF/PF. I agree with some post that’s if he can improve his 3 ball he could become a good back up looking like a 10th man.
At this point I would rather go through young guys who may have a chance then old vets playing last year in league. Was really pissed as the Spurs should have had three or four SF in G League last year and this year.
, if he's springy he's our 6th man! Lol
Underrated signing. This guy has a very complete game. Long wing span, super athletic and mobile. High Bball IQ, good locker room guy, hard worker and got coached by Pop's mentor Larry Brown. He's a good shot blocker, rebounder and passer, makes hustle plays, sets good screens, can roll or play pick and pop. Has a midrange as well as a 3-point shot and good handles. Has also post moves and a jump hook.
If you ask me he's already a better player than Metu and Blossomgame and is better at everything in Basketball than Bertans except 3-point shooting. All he really needs is minutes, I hope Pops gives him those. He might need a year or two but could be a good rotation piece going forward and maybe even starter down the line. If his game translates to the NBA level he should be able to surpass Cunningham. This is the perfect 4 to play next to Aldridge.

I like this signing. If his skills translate to nba level, we have a pretty young core in the future. He is a passing big and that’s what we missed losing Diaw, Splitter and even Kyle. He’s working on his 3 points shots, and that would get him the minutes at 3 and D.
Well, I'm not going to go as far to say that he's better than Metu. He definitely has more skill than Metu, but has less athleticism and size.
Blossomgame has an NBA body, but I suspect that he's too small for the game he plays. There's a reason why he isn't part of the team.
He's just on a two-way, so there's something that PATFO is hesitant about. In general, PATFO has picked up guys from nowhere that have become serviceable players. Temple, Jamychal Green, Tolliver. These guys never got drafted but seem to be good enough to keep getting contracts.
he's definitely slept on and has all the tools to make it. His game is pretty complete and he also has the work ethic. It will take a while, but if somebody can turn him into an NBA player it's the Spurs
I was high on Metu also, but seeing him play out there showed he was a lot of times lost, turnover prone, albeit rookie mistakes that’s why he needs to spend more time in G-League. Granted Metu has length and athleticism, but right now Moore seems more nba ready than him, so far.
I agree that he has to spend time in the G-league. Has he even played a game there?
But let's be real here, Moore is a two-way, Metu has a guaranteed contract. That's a massive difference in the eyes of PATFO.
How big are Moore's hands?
Again with the archaic positional designation. He should be classified as a big wing. Since he's a poor range shooter, I'd compare him to the likes of Hollis-Jefferson, Kidd-Gilchrist and (Stanley) Johnson.
The first two now play almost exclusively as nominal PF's and the third probably would if the 2 best players on his team weren't bigs, but they're still wing defenders. All that really means is, they longer play with two traditional bigs, so they don't have to serve as pseudo perimeter players on offense.
