Not exactly.
So Matt Barnes would've won the game last night??
Interesting![]()
Thats one of the young wings.
Who,
Devin Brown???![]()
When he was here he provided more as a reserve swingman than I've seen from anyone this season. As it stands we have to expect Manu to provide all of the energy in the rotation and with him at less than 100%, that's not a great prospect.
Yeah, Devin sure helped in the playoffs last year.
He was THE reason they won....
Who provided the spark off the bench for the Spurs in the playoffs last year??
oh yeah...
When did he ever hit clutch threes and average 10 a game like Michael Finley has this year???When he was here he provided more as a reserve swingman than I've seen from anyone this season
Oh yeah,
never.
Brown is gone, MOVE ON.
If Tim and Manu aren't 100%, chances are dicey to win anyway.Yes, unproven rookie swingmen are a much more reliable.So you find yourself relying on the old vets to win. That's not a good prospect for this team.![]()
Yeah, they couldn't use a guy who played better D than any current reserve swing and who's offensive game fit rather well. I'm glad we have Melvin Sanders and his 10 day contract or whatever instead.
i thought you were retiring from posting?
Well, this season is over.
nice, spurs fan. i hope you are just role playing.
Yeah, in 1999.Malik Rose against Dirk would have been a nice matchup.
Which one of your 6'4" swingmen would have shut down Dirk last night?Yeah, there were no young swingmen for this team to sign last summer.
I agree that the Spurs need a shot of youth this summer, but as stated, the bench shone, and the starters sucked. The unit that got worked:
Tony 23
Manu 28
Tim 29
Nazr 28
Bowen 35
I've been thinking about this, too. I'd call N.O. and see if I couldn't kill two birds with one stone. The seemed to want Barry. See if they bite on Barry/Rasho for JR Smith/ PJ Brown. I know Brown is getting long in the tooth, but he's a chippy MoFo who isn't afraid to mix it up with anyone, and his numbers are still good. Start him next to Tim and jettison our other passive big by letting Nazr go. PJ's also an ending contract. New Orleans gets some vets to steady their young guys, and their contracts are only 2 years each. If they want Scola, throw him in.
To address the Nazr spot, if Ian isn't ready, you go and get a Jamal Sampson. He's rotting in Sacto, inactive, rebounds like a mother er (5+ when he plays 13-14 minutes) and he'll only be 23 in May.
Our bigs are improved, and the ages net out, we get some youth on the perimeter, and we still have talent in Europe. If Ian is ready, Marks gets a handshake and thanks, and we get that much more athletic..
Eh, Byron gets rid of guys he doesn't like. I don't see Shinn as willing to let PJ go either.
I like Sampson's potential, but I see red flags when guys don't work out in Charlotte.
Any players we pick up will have questions. Teams generally don't let go of solid citizen All-Stars, CD....
JR Smith has issues, too. We just need to find out if they're Byron Scott issues, or real ones.![]()
Devin Brown would have saved the season. Give me a ing break!
He has a lot of "not coming to practice" issues. It will be hard to figure out what's going on there, but obviously the Spurs were willing to risk it.
Well Lord Byron thought Buckets had no hope either. I trust our talent evaluation staff more than I trust the knucklehead coaching the Hornets.
