Coz Danny Green's been stinking up again. Might as well go for some guy who can shoot the 3 and drive
I like Hollis as a SG here. Very good length. Could be a 3&D type player. Is more well rounded offensively than danny green

Spurs play tonight at 8 p.m. CST on ESPNU
Is the game still on? Where I can watch it?
Garino having a nice all around game tonight.
Gosh..I know I'm getting old...watched a lot of the Austin Toro's game last night...a surreal experience watching James Silas's son play ball..even looks a lot like him..have to wish the best for him..
DeJuan BLAIR is playing for the Texas against Austin right now... just got dunked on by Cory JEFFERSON![]()
Not nearly as pathetic as a 35 YO Antonio Daniels playing for the Texans a few years ago.
Hope the Spurs sign Thompson.
What's his D like?
Above average
Thompson has been an NBA player for three years. People have a hard time telling the difference between NBA and NBADL levels of compe ion sometimes, but it's a massive gap. Even NBA scrubs can and usually do dominate in the d-league. That's not to attack Hollis, as I think he should have a chance to make a roster this season. But don't go by this tape to judge him (he has plenty of time with Philly do to that). A lot of that in-between stuff simply isn't going to be there in the big league.
His release off the catch looks quite good, quick and very compact. I hope he gets a chance when Anthony's contract is up.
6'8" SF.... nice size... sign him! http://www.draftexpress.com/profile/...Thompson-5823/
Heh I was more impressed in those highlights by Cory Jefferson than Thompson. Jefferson is probably very undersized for the game h has but overall seems to have a higher motor and rebounds better.
The Spurs already have a better player in that role (David Lee).
For this season.
Pato Garino had 26 points today, and a couple of blocks.
Cory Jefferson with 18 points and 14 boards.
And Forbes put up 22 points.
It's a shame those kinds of numbers don't translate into the NBA.
It's just a lot easier to score. There are no rim protectors and the talent is much inferior, specially the size/length of talent... only thing is if Forbes wasn't scoring there like Arci and Pato most of the time, then it's a concern but plenty of dleague players have made it into the league in recent seasons... Teams just have to tKe a flier on guys and see what's there.
BTW glad to see Garino is flourishing lately.
