When your mom licks my balls.
when he can learn to do something other than dunk.
When your mom licks my balls.
he will be in the dunk contest..... thats about all the playing time hes gonna get
'07-'08
He's raw like sushi. Give him two years minimum.
WHENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN???????????
Guy obviously hasn't got the basketball IQ to go with his leaping ability. Remember what Charles Barkley said, "A deer can run fast and jump high--but I wouldn't put one on the floor"
When Spurs will led by 50, then 5 seconds before the end of the game Pop will play him.
we are savin him for the slam dunk comp
his workin on dunkn from full court now........
I've been busy and haven't been able to watch the Spurs game's as much as I would like to...
Has he played at all? I read he's been travelling with the team. But has Pop put him in for garbage time? Has he shown flashes of anything yet? I'd love to see that sick athleticism come to fruition with the Spurs.
He hasn't played at all. He hasn't even been suited up for a game, they've been keeping him on the inactive list.
Taht's good
I Still Want To See Him Play. Last Night Would Of Been Perfect, But Who Could Of Predicted We Would Win By 40? Oh Well, Maybe Sometime This Year....
"they've been keeping him for the playoffs."
... 2009 playoffs.
White needs a lot of work.
More precisely on his ball handling and jump shot.
He prides himself on defense, and will more than likely attempt to get playing time and stay with the team in that sense rather than solely on his freak athleticism.
He will still be in the Dunk Contest right????
He hasn't been officially invited yet. No one has.
No, just on a roster.
Defense, an amazing work ethic, and a good 3-ball kept Bruce in the league a lot longer than some people expected.
I'm hopeful about this guy...I hope he eventually becomes a piece of the Spurs continued success.
Do you think the League knows about this guy like we do??? Hopefully they do invite him because its going to be a sick @ss all star weekend for da spurs when he wins the dunk contest....
His situation is very similar to what Stephen Jackson's situation was when he first came here. Like Jax did during his first year here he won't play but will learn the system and work to improve his game with the coaching staff. We really won't know how good he can be until next year. Then we will no for sure if this guy has potential.
Here! Here!
The slight difference is that SJax played the season before in New Jersey and got some playing time and was able to show his strengths and weaknesses. I have no idea what White can and can't do at this point. But if he was already a stud its safe to say he'd be in the games. That's obviously not the case but the question is how raw he is at this point. Until, he plays its hard to say.
I would imagine White is busting his ass off in practice by hustling, rebounding, and playing defense.
Popovich knows what White can do when it comes to dunking and other freak abilties.
He wants to see White display other characteristics that will allow him to stay on the team, and apparently White is doing that.
We might not see White for a while mainly due to the fact that he is learning on the fly, and was not around during training camp.
The Spurs playbook is difficult enough to pick up on the offensive end, and extremely tough on the defensive end.....thats speaking of established NBA players, let alone Rookies who have not been with their current team during training camp.
Teams do know of White...they scouted him in the McDonalds All-American game, in Cincy, and of course during NBA workouts.
Once again, his poor season at Cincy, his lack of fundamentals, and inconsistent jump shot is what made him a second round pick and not a first rounder.
White was projected to be a lottery pick a few years ago in the same draft as LeBron, Wade and Melo...it's well known that he can dunk by all.
He was projected a lot of places in the late first round but, like many players, dropped. First pick of the second ain't bad, plus Indy dumped three overall second round picks to get him. I think a lot of people expected him to be visible this year, but he's disappeared behind the curtain with the Spurs. That's just as well.
Anybody have any news or updates on how this guy is doing? I know alot of people would like to hear on his progress not only has a "dunker" but as a complete player like what are they working on with him? I know he avg. 16.3 pts and 5.1 rebs for the bearcats so the guy has the talent so if anyone has any updates please let us know
