I thought that we were trying to develope Gist as a 3 or 4 when we go small.
Barring any S&Ts, the pieces are all in place. Now all we need is for everyone to stay healthy and get to know their new teammates and start learning how they fit into the Spurs system.. summer league and training camp will be watched with great interest and I look for all the youngsters to go all out for a roster slot. Its a good thing Pop has mellowed in his old age.. imagine if he had this many new faces back in the day when he had a really short fuze..

Damn gospursgojas! You're stupid! How could you forget the signing of DROB and TD? ...I hope a midget kills you in your sleep!
Best offseasons ever were after championshipsThis one sure doesn't look bad though.
I'll miss #12
87 and 97 were great because the spurs landed DRob and Tim, but they were easy choices, nothing very difficult for the FO to pick them then.
You could put the draft of manu and tony above because they are better than RJ or Dice.
but this year we had to do a lot with a roster already loaded with three stars and without any high draft pick. and we landed RJ, Dice and Blair.
much more harder and unexpected than to pick Duncan with the first draft choice.
Yea rob and td were obvious picks. This is by far the most original/dynamic/interesting/irregular off-season I've seen. Now if only we could trade for Sjax! lol, pipe dreams.
Drafting Drob and Duncan were great, but this offseason... did we really expect anything to happen? I figured we would MLE some okay guy and go in praying for health, just like summers before. I was completely blindsided by everything that has transpired. Plus I figured the draft would be a throw-away. Get the best talent available but don't count on a contributor from the second round.
The most I expected after we lost was Finley not picking up his option! This off-season competes for the best in terms of sheer unpredictability imo. If anyone suggested the Jefferson trade or the Blair pick it would of been flamed to death as pipe-dreams, just like the espn trade machine things that get spammed here.
I'm excited
I agree.
After Pop interview I'm not sure Hairston will make the roster. Haislip is missing in that list
Why? I didn't hear anything that made me think that.
^ that "-Hairston had a great year in the D-league last year. The Spurs will keep an eye on how he's developing."
No question it is at least the 3rd best...
It will also depend on how the sophs and Haislip turn out being in terms of contribution to the team... AND if their additions bring a ship to SAT...
If somehow Bowen could replace Finley, I would claim this to be the best off-season ever.
Who knows? If Blair and Mahinmi combine their messianic powers and average double digit rebounds while curing cancer it might be the best ever.
i have a trade idea:
Matt Bonner, Roger Mason and the rights for Splitter for Shane Battier.
i think Houston will agree, they in kind of rebuilding mode after Ming injury and they just sign Ariza on Battier position and they love to pick rights of bigs from Europe so i thing they will agree to send the 2 years contract of Battier.
