That smile turned into a WTF rather quick; wished we could see a pic from a few seconds later.

So he can smile. Now I know.
Hairston is not a fit with the Spurs current rotation (unless he were taking Bogans spot, which he isn't). The Spurs desperately need their third guard to be able to handle, create some and shoot the three, all things that aren't Hairston's strength. This is why Mason is vital until Parker comes back, because he's the Spurs best option to fill this role, otherwise they're going to wear out Ginobili and Hill.
Any time I see Ginobili playing point with Hairston and Bogans on the wings, I cringe. The latter two are similar and when your point guard is really a natural shooting guard and not a guy who you want play major minutes or carrying too heavy a load, the last thing you want the other two perimeter players to be is sub par ball handlers and creators.
As others have said, it doesn't hurt that the refs are unfamiliar with Hairston and give him no respect. Bogans is coming off his best game as a Spur and unfortunately for Hairston, the prudent thing to do for the Spurs right now is to not have him in the regular rotation. That being said, against the Nets they'll probably need fresh legs, which is why Duncan should not play and Mahinmi and Hairston both should.
Did they find Hairston's body yet?
lmao yall s see duncan's hand he look like he bout to slap haristonso he can smile. Now i know.
THC ezzzzzzzzzzzz
So, according to Sean ... Manu's pretty high on Malik . . .
Malik will never be more than a bit player. But I love his hustle. He's a vintage Bench Spur.
I'm sorry to ask this but, why can't Malik be a SG?
Why does everyone see him as a 3?
Manu Ginobili: I think I am high on Malik Hairston
Manu states that he is high on Malik Hairston. Is Malik Hairston some sort of new drug? According to Sean Elliott, Malik Hairston is like a powerful drug. He excites Elliott in every single way. "Check out that dunk!" Elliott commented very enthusiastically.
"Oh yes. I feel so good." Manu Ginobili claims that. Everytime he sees Hairston leap up into the air to grab a rebound, or block a shot, he feels his heartbeat race. He knew he had found the right drug.
Every drug has a codename, except for Hairston. Manu Ginobili also claims that his new-found drug makes him feel exceptionally high when talking about his athletic ability. "You feel like you can fly with him, oh I feel so giddy.
Michael Beasley, of the Miami Heat and Lamar Odom of the Lakers share the same sentiment. " Watching Malik Hairston play is better than smoking weed. I hope we can get out of drug and alcohol abuse by watching Malik Hairston."
That's all for Chieflion's report on Malik Hairston.
Didn't you say the same about Hill this time last year?
who the are you and how the do you think you know anything i have ever said about George Hill?
I been on that kid's jock since week three of last season
I dubbed him The Chosen Son of San Antonio.
I'm probably his biggest fan on this forum.
He's a utility player and glueguy that actually possesses talent. He brings the hustle, energy and athleticism to be one of those guys that sticks in the league because of effort and a work-ethic, but he's more than that; the guy can play and he's a tough, fearless son .
Malik's a championship-level bench/role player, IMO, and if he starts seeing the court with any kind of consistency, with the Spurs' best players (that Duncan, Jefferson, Hairston, Ginobili and Hill lineup late was a sight for sore eyes -- even if it was smallball), I'm sure he'll make some more believers.
Maybe it was someone else that said that, but I do specifically remember someone saying that Hill wouldn't be that good sometime last year.
rofl just cuz someone said it you thought it was CBF?
I like most was like WTF when we drafted him but after preseason i was lukewarm and after a few weeks I was sold, then after Parker got ankle bloaded I was George Hill 4 Life.
I remember it was someone with a high post count that said that.
My mistake, CBF.
tee ach see.
I still want him to play more but he needs some more work. I love his random spectacular plays but he's still hesitant in my opinion which makes sense because he's afraid to make mistakes and get yanked. That's something Pop needs to work on as a coach. He doesn't get the most out of his players. Hill has played very well this year but it took Pop to lather over the top ridiculous praise on him for it to finally come true.
Back to Haurston. He's never going to make the next step until he improves his handle. It's way worse than RMJs. If he can do that over the summer then his game will take off.
i'll bump this b/c he played great tonight. i like seeing him take the 3 - shows confidence - and i liked his assists. he is still developing, but i would like him to become our future sf.
If the ball-handling improves, he's going to be a legit rotation player..his shot still needs work, but the ball-handling is the key..he's an elite athlete, great rebounder for his size, finishes well and strong at the rim and plays good D..the ball-handling keeps him from getting to where he wants to be though..
The positive is that as bad as Hairston's ball-handling and as inconsistent as his shooting currently is, it's actually improved significantly from when we first saw him on the scene for the Spurs..I see no reason to think he won't improve them again with another Summer of work, he's done it in the previous 2 years..the guy was basically a PF in college, his game needed an overhaul..
He's still a raw player, but the potential is clear IMO, Spurs would be smart to keep investing in him IMO, especially for cheap..
