    do you think Blair doesn't work on his shots as much because of his ACLs, or lack thereof, perhaps trying to preserve his knees as much as possible?

    or is it just laziness?

    because his shots look pretty bad out there.

    Blair's not the best player ever, but he's a good end of the bench guy. We've been winning for so long, it's easy to get annoyed with a guy who can't do more. . .but he's probably better than most guys around the NBA who have his role; which is basically 4th-5th big.

    There are worse bigs out there that get paid 4x as much. Blair's good for his cost imo.
    his fkn , if u think his better than most bench scrubs...spurs system make him look better than what he is, if his that good...other teams would be knockin on the door with trade

    I like Blair but at times *sigh*....I don't know anymore.

    Can people start posting possible trade threads again? LOL

    Alright.

    Odd timing, though.
    I needed a good sample size and this game was the most enjoyable one all season imo so I felt compelled to comment. The game couldn't have been better team wise, but I really expected Blair to step up and he didn't, he regressed. I was hopeful because he dropped pounds and that to me means he's committed to being a NBA player, but he's never done well playing with the bench guys.

    Blair is anything but lazy. He's goes harder than anyone out there except Manu. No doubt he spends many many hours working on his game, and it might all come together QW,jnk jhgf (oops grandson attack) sometime but it doesn't look good for him, but it's not because of lack of effort. His expressions might hint that, but I feel it's not the case. He's limited because he just doesn't have the fundamentals to not be. He's also short for his position and the ACL thing doesn't help.

    I watch more than just one team, so yeah, I'm pretty sure he's better than a lot of end of the bench scrub big men who get paid what he does.

    We can't really speculate if teams haven't been trying to get him. Due to his being so cheap, there's no reason for RC to trade him until his deal's about to expire. Hate him all you like man. . .his production is hard to replace at that low of a salary.

    Not about just tonight. He's like the family re everyone pretends isn't a re , he's just sweet.

    btw, Neal isn't even a half decent PG. This is something we already know. He gets pressured easily at half court. Nando should be handling the ball, not Neal.


    I rather take my chances with Neal. De Colo flat out sucks something major.

    It seems Blair has lost his ability to catch passes.

    Whoever it was that told Blair to stop going hard at the hoop and to instead shoot floaters made a mistake. I know in his rookie season he was getting blocked a lot by taller players, but that is better than this floater rubbish. I would say it was a Spurs coaching staff decision and I think it may have been a mistake.

    Yup Blair sucks. I'd rather have 70 year old David Robinson back.

    Blair is evidence that Pop can't coach bigs.

    he just doesn't seem to be able to calm down and relax when playing. Perhaps he feels he is constantly being tested and because of that plays with little control. So we see lost rebounds, tournovers, broken plays and especially missed layups.. This isn't stuff that can't be fixed and that is why he is starting right now, to boost his confidence.. But at some point he'll have to prove he does have an IQ and play with brains..

    The problem with Blair is his lack of post game. He only scores on the occasional put back and awkward, high arching floaters. If he used his size and weight to his advantage, he could be a Z-bo type of player.

    Since I live in Dallas and dont get to see the Spurs much I was suprised how much weight Blair has lost, I am sure the guy is trying hard to improve. Unfortunately he just doesnt bring enough to make a difference so unless he makes big changes soon I vote him off the island.

    Nando's played abysmally the last few games. Patty should be above De Colo on the depth chart if Pop sees the game like we do.

    Rather than have De Colo rot on the bench, I'd like to see him develop his skills and confidence with the Toros in the D-League.

    Patty just dribbles up and shoots. That's fine for small spurts but not for a backup PG. Nando has talent, he just needs the experience. The D league is full of scrubs, he won't learn NBA level play there.

    Regardless, the thread is about Blair.

    Blair is nothing more than a Malik Rose but with less talent. The Spurs will help him land a great contract with another team and then he'll fizzle away.

    Don't compare Blair to Malik. I'd take Malik at his fattest any day of he week over Blair. Blair's suckage makes me miss Malik Rose
