Clear charge, tbh. was rigged, imho.
Seraphin was something to think about before ha made numbers this season...I would trade both Neal and Blair for him, but obviously it would't be enough.
Istead, I liked a lot Gelabale...showed a decent jump shot and is good at defense, with his long arms. Also a good athlete. I don't know if someone in nba still have his rights...but considering his connection with the other french players he could be a more than decent addiction to our team.
Clear charge, tbh. was rigged, imho.
BTW, for people wondering how fat Diaw is, he is listed at 265lbs on the Olympic website. There is a good chance it's his true weight measured by FNT staff in mid June. Pop should really try to convince him of losing 20-25lbs.
Diaw seems heavier then he was 3-4 months ago. Seems like he'd play best around 245.
So weird![]()
Same. Seraphin wouldn't be a fit anyway. He may have been drafted as primarily a PF, but it's clear that he's a C. That being said, it would seem something's got to give with one of their bigs. Nene, Okafor, Vesely and Seraphin, for various reasons, more than likely aren't going anywhere. So that leaves Booker as the likely odd man out and he's overqualified to be a fifth big.
He's not a great fit for what the Spurs need (he's basically an in shape version of Blair, with a jump shot), but he is a solid player. The Wizards are rumored interested in Meeks, so there's no reason to think they wouldn't be interested in Neal, who's a better version of Meeks.
Which is surprising that he can get bigger when he's still playing. I am glad the Spurs re-signed him, but the weight is an issue and luckily the Spurs got him cheap and on a short term contract. Hopefully weight is not an issue all season.
glad to see tony, manu and tiago (21 points & win) having good games and staying healthy.
It's just a game, TP is just carrying the team he is supposed to carry tbh
it will be
with Diaw you take the goods and the bads mainly weight and lack of aggressiveness. c'est la vie
Guess u forget about Game 2 against Thunder..
Oh I don't... but I also expect the alleged "leader", in his prime no less, to show up every game... Manu and Tim, they're mid-30's, on the decline... it's not difficult to understand their limitations at their age...
it should've been a blocking foul on manu actually. he wasn't set.
Tony said their gameplan was to get Manu and Scola tired... and they did it. ARG coach said that France, much like Spain, likes to play physical to wear you down. Manu said the offense needed more spark...
and this is why Noah is so important for France
Noah is also important because Diaw looks like he can hit 300 pounds in any given day... and it's not a dig, as a Spurs fan it does worries me.
I was one of the few saying I'd prefer Turiaf over Diaw because I thought Diaw was done and too fat. I was obviously wrong (me) but I'm still concerned, no contract year and fat in the Olympics even tough Boris consider playin' for France during the Olympics is a dream... that's worrisome tbh
It's kind of a contract year - Boris didn't get a big contract or long term. He can opt out if he plays well to try and cash in so it stands to reason he would come in and give it his best.
situation is still more comfortable than being in contract year tbh time will tell. On the bright side I think the fact he is playin' with his buddy will help to maintain his motivation but once again seeing him fat during the Olympics is![]()
best part of the game was right at the start, when the british commentator on the australian foxtel broadcast said something along the lines of
"now this is an interesting game because Ginobili, Parker, Diaw and Delfino play together in the NBA in the San Diego Suns"
to which the 2nd commentator replied with
"mm-hmm that's right"
smh
truely the worst commentary i've ever heard in my life - i've got loads more of their quotes if there's any interest
Tony knows Manu can't play more than 25 minutes a game. Tony just setting the game plan he's supposed to set. Tony just beating the inferior teammate he's supposed to beat.
