    I know it was probably a typo (Bertans 2x - so top 10 not set) but adding a SF like Brewer (only looking at SFs) who IMO is way better than Cunningham and Pondexter. Again I think this team really struggles defensively in those minutes when neither White/Gay are in the lineup, those are the minutes that Brewer would play.
    It works both ways. Saying the top 9 or 10 are set isnt just about the Spurs but if you are a fa looking for time to showcase your stuff, are you ok with playing only Cunningham/Pon minutes?

    I think he could get more minutes than their minutes. Depending on matchups, he could get a minute or two from all of our "wings". One reason that Dante and QPon get so few minutes is because they are not very reliable, and neither has the defensive chops of Brewer.

    Sure sounds like a man "Working hard to move Pau" doesn't it?

    Those are key minutes when we lose momentum - plus Brewer has shown even this year that he can impact games in any role. Never hurts to add another 3/D player that can guard 1-3.

    Things might change in Sacramento but he was the only newly acquired player to not play last night and they used a 10 man rotation.

    There is no one out there that is better than: LMA, DeRozan, White, Rudy, Bertans, Forbes, Mills, Bertans, Marco or Jakob. So what is the point of bringing someone in?
    We extremely overestimate and overvalue our own players.

    If you get a better forward there is a chance he could play more as managing Gay's minutes seems like a thing to do.

    +1

    If you can't find minutes for versatile player like Brewer, there is something wrong with you. He is also a underrated ball handler and moves well without the ball.

    Im not against signing someone; just pointing out the limitations both from sa and the players view themselves.

    I do not (and probably the rest of the league), our roles are good (?), playing in our team, doing the designated role by Pop, putting Forbes on another team and he will be worse than Gary Neal (people here were comparing Forbes with Lou Williams lmao) , I have no doubt that players who have more talent could do similar functions by adding more overall talent to the team. Greg does not want to give that type of player a try (whether for chemistry, difficulty adjusting, culture or any other reason) that does not mean that the paper players who play here are better than many guys out there (even in the g-league), it's all a matter of opportunity

    D yes. 3 not so much. Brewer is a career .283 shooter from 3P. He's also a career .425 shooter overall, which means that the only team whose FG% he wouldn't drag down is the Knicks.

    Sadly, he would still be an improvement, because he does play on both ends of the floor. Adding him to the roster would give the Spurs a better chance of making it into the first round.

    I just don't see anyone out there that helps... playing Derrick White 32-34 mpg instead of 25 mpg is the easiest way for the Spurs to improve in the second half of the season.

    He can't stay healthy either and Corey Brewer would help.

    sad thing is that White has not shown he’s durable enough for those min, seems to be a little fragile

    Young, 6’6” and can play SF in a pinch. Spanish connection with Pau if you’re trying to get him here.

    I mean I wouldn’t hate it i guess. I feel like I’m grasping at straws because everyone else out there is trash.

    Still take Brewer over this guy - we need defense. Plus if Spurs do add anyone from the buyout market it won't be someone with only 2 years experience.
