Bad play by Jerrells.
i thought i remember him missing preseason cause of his mom's death.
Bad play by Jerrells.
That was bad from CJ. He should have passed to James on that one.
He's playing a lot better than he had been.
Props to him. Quite frankly I'm a bit surprised at his ability to put the ball on the floor, and his defense is acceptable. The kid has a chance to really help this year if his outside shot can be consistent.
Another note : Anderson doesn't look to have has his legs under him just yet. Hopefully that will come in time as the season progresses.
dang Gee, you have to finish that
That would have been nasty.
ahhh james you're killing me.
Everyone on Caja has that floater. It is ridiculous.
CAJ 22 14 30 16 82
SA 28 33 23 24 108
end
Spurs win 108-85
Fun game to watch. Glad TD is fine.
All i know is Caja ing blows.

Gee doesn't get in until late again tonight. Got to think the writing's on the wall for him.
From what I saw tonight Gary Neal has a lot of shots. He looks comfortable shooting a spot up three, he can hit a shot on the run, he can come off of a screen and shoot, he can take a dribble and shoot, he can take an off balance shot and make it. He looks better than I thought going by the comments from previous games.
That's all good, but he's gotta make the shots though like you said. I am impressed that he seems equally comfortable taking all kinds of shots. Maybe Manu gave him some confidence after drawing up that play against the Clippers for him and calling him the best shooter on the team.
Anderson does look a bit gassed out there, I agree on that.
me and my brother were talking about that and we saw hill hold his hands behind his back i think they have a bet going on cause he forced himself to keep his hands behind his back **against the clips

Not tapping hands should improve the Ft%
The difference between Anderson and Neal is Neal is a more confident player. He doesn't think he belongs or play as though he's not trying to step on anyone's toes, he knows he belongs (whether he does or not remains to be seen) and he plays with the proper amount of aggressiveness and assertiveness.
It's going to take some time for the Spurs to embed that into Anderson's mind, but once they do and he get's his legs under him, it's clear he's going to be a solid contributor.
I like his confidence.
That being said, he still needs to shoot a high percentage from three to justify playing time. But he can be a useful end of the bench type player on this team. Even if he's not a surefire NBA player on his own, on this team, with all the pieces they have and given what they need out of him, he can be.
As an aside, seeing Gee at varying points in the 4th quarter during stoppages beside Simmons and Anderson drove home how small he really is. Simmons and Anderson look to be a legit 6-7 and 6-6 respectively. Gee can't be more than 6-4.
Unfortunately for him, with his lack of a handle, SF's probably going to have to be his primary position if he's to be an NBA player, particularly on this team.
People need to put their bias aside and face facts: it would be foolish to cut Simmons at the expense of Gee. I wanted the Spurs to avoid Simmons types as much as anyone, but given the situation they've put themselves in, it's clear he's a better option than Gee. Yes, he's older, slower and not nearly as athletic, but he's also bigger, stronger, a better shooter and he's an experienced player, meaning he knows how to play.
Gee is still intriguing enough that it's worthwhile to have him on the Toros again, should no better option arise for him.

Tim Duncan, who is fine, on his eye-poke vs Caja Laboral: (shrugging) "I only need one eye anyway."
Nothing from what we already know. Yup Neal and anderson are our best new guys. Simmons and Temple should get a spot but are unlikely to get PT. The rest .. Gee, Gist , Jerrels. Cousins. I'm sorry just go home, and play for the Toros. At least Cousins has a shot of being called anytime one of are bigs gets an injury. That about it. Now can we now start the season.
Great read..thanks!
