Could be that this kid is 20 years old and GMs don't get fired for blowing a #33 pick.
Could be Buford wants to string it out a bit rather than show a mistake so was made big that the guy couldn't even make it to training camp and a couple of months of NBDL.

No but these guys do have egos I think.
the kid is 20, lute olsen thinks hes a great talent, but he plays bad in some pickup games in Utah and hes automatically horrible.
Greg Oden sucked at summer league too, should portland fan be pissed he signed?
Sure, but isn't this just the kind of player who should be developed by the Spurs in Austin?
Just giving another scenario, not saying he's a guaranteed bust or that was the Spurs motive.
btw what picks have totally stunk it up in SL and turned out to be good players. Not saying they don' exist but can't thnk of any.
My doubts of Marcus rest on one thing, and it isn't an abysmal summer league performance: he refused to do what the Spurs wanted him to do. The Spurs have kicked players like that WITH ability to the curb. See: Rose, Malik Brown, Devin Jackson, Steven. You do not win when you defy the Spurs F.O.
I think you are right 'exstatic'.
His ego according to wildcat fans is over inflated. If he and Lute clashed, he will certainly clash with Pop. That is all the front office needs to ship him out.
Then they will ship him out.
It's hilarious that this is such a big deal.
I will be curious to see what kind of deal Williams get. I just hope that it's a 2 or 3 years contract and not a 1 year contract.
Williams is too a sop re coming from a "so-so" NCAA season. I think Spurs will look more at his at ude and upside than his summer league games. if Spurs wanted a nba ready player, they would have drafted a solid senior.
Why don't we start a poll to understand the spurstalk consensus on this future Austin Toro's star?
Then they will cut him and sign some other long small forward stiff.
I would assume that it is a one year contract with a team option on a second year. That really doesn't cost the Spurs anything if he doesn't work out, but protects their interests if he does.I will be curious to see what kind of deal Williams get.

Sanikidze is lost in space.
AFAIK, He is still under contract with Estudiantes but he isn't practicing with them.
I think they would just go without one again in that case just to piss us off.
I think Viktor is going to be a case study in cir venting the CBA to get a guy on a D-League team.
Quick take--- He and James White are about the same size...White better player now...White better summer league but not great by any means... White evaluated all season by Spurs...White time in nbdl...White released ...
Marcus Williams turn...
Quick take--- He and James White are about the same size
uh no.
White was cut because he actually regressed in summer league. If Marcus doesn't take advantage of the opportunities he will be given in SA and Austin, he'll be gone.
wouldn't piss me offI think they would just go without one again in that case just to piss us off.
but it would piss off the usual suspects
I would be totally pissed off.
I think too but if Spurs and Williams' agent haven't agreed to sign a contract like that because of the amount of guaranteed money, he could have signed the tender offer that is an one year contract.
T Park-----both are listed at 6'7-------uh yep
What did he refused to do ?
True, but that seems a little counterproductive if the Spurs' offer was at all better than the tender. Anyway I don't know if a guy stashed in Austin all season would get much attention next season as a free agent.
