Jeff McDonald: Stoudamire makes it official
To the surprise of absolutely nobody, Damon Stoudamire formally became a San Antonio Spur this morning, inking a contract good through the rest of the season believed to be worth the veteran minimum.
The deal had been in the works for several days, since the Memphis Grizzlies bought out Stoudamire's contract last week, essentially making the veteran point guard a free agent.
Stoudamire participated in his first practice session with his new team on Sunday, after which we in the media got to ask him the pressing question: Why here?
Stoudamire also drew interest from Boston, Phoenix and Toronto, the place where he began his career 13 seasons ago. So why did he choose San Antonio?
The answer might lie in a recent Sports Illustrated poll of 242 NBA players, asked to name the coach other than their own they'd most like to play for. The Spurs' Gregg Popovich came in third, behind Phil Jackson and Mike D'Antoni. Among veteran players 30 years or older, however, Popovich won in a landslide.
"Pop understands veteran guys," the 34-year-old Stoudamire said Sunday. "He understands their bodies and things of that nature. This is a perfect situation to extend a career."
Collateral damage in Memphis' youth movement, Stoudamire wanted to go someplace where his 12-plus seasons of NBA experience would matter. No team values veterans quite like the oldest team in the league.

Actually they just asked how much was he going to pay Manu to get #20. I wonder if Manu would do what Horry did at the beginning of the year

anything is better than jacque vaughn as the lead guard at this point. let's all cross our collective fingers and hope damon works out well for us.
And fast.
I think he will wear #2

3, umm I guess 13 was too much of a knock off![]()
Mari-huana reference aside, I hope that's not his shooting percentage.
