Quick Grades: Spurs vs. Mavericks - Dec. 23

Timvp??? Did you see Nando De Colo playing last night? INC??????? 2 pts 3 boards 5 assts, and 2 steals? INC??????? He deserves at least a B for his effort.

WOW that left me wondering what you were thinking. De Colo played 13 mins and with Neal showing an injury, he may get a lot more playing time. He could take over as the backup point guard and #3 shooting guard.

He overreacted to the new CBO.

tbh that cheddar, bacon, and onion sent a lot of other people to the toilet too

I think the bench deserves better grades than INC> After all, their good and bad points were pointed out. The fact that some of them didn't play a whole lot of minutes shouldn't rob them of a grade. They are bench players so they should be graded as such (fewer minutes to do something) as well as their skill level they bring to the table.

In this particular game I thought all of the bench players played hard in the few minutes they got. I wasn't too happy with Blair's play. It seems he wants to shoot every time he gets the ball. I recognize he's probably playing for a new contract, but not playing "Spurs ball" might be the reason Pop isn't using him as much.

The entire season I haven't given grades to players who only play in garbage time. De Colo, for example, entered the game last night with the Spurs up by 41 points. What a player did/didn't do when the Spurs are up by ~40 points doesn't really mean anything in the big picture, IMO.

Sometimes you have nights and sometimes you have... what happened last night.
