Check out this move: https://vine.co/v/izXKa2EiqAP
His explosion really shows up in that move. He has displayed better ballhandling than we saw in preseason, and he's always had his passing talent. Very encouraging.
That's one crazy move! The more unpredictable his moves the more chances he'll get uncontested layups. He's going to have to learn a lot from Tony and Manu. He has ridiculous athleticism that will compensate he will need to take it to the NBA level.
Spurs need to lock him up long term.
I think he is here for 2 years (2nd year unguaranteed), and then a RFA the third year. I would like to see him more personally, but there is Rasual (who has been playing really well), then Kyle (who has had trouble finding minutes for himself, and he's already guranteed for another year, and a young player that needs minutes to develop at this stage, even if you eventually want to trade him).
Pop has also elected to play the duo of Patty/Tony a whole lot together when Manu is out, bumping Patty's minutes over 21 at the moment.
Pop has even been reluctant to play Ray, who has played a lot of NBA minutes already and is athletic and a threat from 3, with a nice midrange shot as well.
So with all of this, Simmons has found himself with barely a chance to play, and he won't play when everyone is healthy.
I am sure if Pop wanted to find minutes for Simmons he could scale Patty's minutes back a little bit when Manu is out, but the problem has been 3 point shooting, and Simmons is not a threat from 3. With Danny, Patty, Manu and Kawhi now getting into the flow offensively from three, I think Pop can incorporate him.
WE may have a lot of small ball ahead coming up, so I definitely think Simmons could help.
I'm surprised how little time Ray has played. Last game he played a bit over one minute. Ray is likely just insurance when either Parker or Patty are injured.
I like the fact that Pop is experimenting with Boban and Simmons and playing them with the regular guys.
this guy is a legit NBA player. WOW
amazing
Simmons had a good game tonight
Started off slow IIRC (air balled a wide open corner 3)....
Then turned it on. Good game overall for our Summer League Finals Game MVP.
Gave some good minutes tonight.
if simmons can be a consistent shooter, he can definitely crack the rotation and give the spurs good minutes when manu is struggling or not playing
He had a very good game, he had a few mistakes out there, but that's what you expect from a rookie. He played some solid defense on Barton at times, boxed out well, made passes, did a bit of everything out there. I think he also made 2 3's? He needs to knock down his open looks at a respectable rate, his slashing ability is legit.
Anderson-Simmons were nice on defense, when you pair them with Green or Leonard they really work well off them as their defensive role is lessened. Seems like a very effective defense to counter small ball lineups.
