Agreed
Now I'll be happy about it.
It's hard to say he is the savior or anything, but if you had told me at the start of the season that we'd be ending with Drew Gooden, I'd have been perfectly happy with it. He's scrappy, he's a rebounder, he's a post presence, and he's got something to prove. I always thought he played well in Cleveland, and hasn't really fit into a system since.
If he can pay attention, play passable defense, and fit in with the Spurs, this could end up being a great move.
, it's nice just to see a FA move work out for the Spurs for once.
And thank God he got rid of that 'stache.

He has shown a tendency to lack concentration on the defensive end at times. Hope the coaches and players can convince him to perform on defense as he has also shown he is capable of doing.
With TD, Pop, and this Spurs defensive system, Gooden will be just fine. If the Spurs can win a le with Francisco Elson, they can win one with Gooden.
Great addition, Spurs.
I should feel bad but Mavs are already ed. Might as well root for the Spurs. Not sure Gooden is enough but it will definitely help.
wow, what an interesting turn of events since we lost to the lakers. the whole time we wanted a reliable big man and now we finally got one. sweet.
Finally. I for one, am glad. This can't do anything but help us. We get him for cheap, and even though others could offer more, he came here. I think he understands he can get a ring here, and he very well could be the missing piece. I could be wrong, but I think this was a great move by the FO. Kudos guys.
Pretty stunned at the turn of events. He may wind up not helping at all, but at this price (nothing), it's a no-brainer. Kudos.
TD, Gooden, Thomas, Bonner, Thomas of this year > TD, Thomas, Oberto, Horry of last yr.
Bye bye Pops. Nice knowing you.
It won't make much of a difference. We all know the lakers and celtics are better teams. We will just hang around mediocrity. We need to trade Duncan for Garnett so we have a real leader.
He didn't finish the game because he reaggravated the groin injury he had and had to leave in the 4th quarter. It's a nagging injury that has not gone away. I was so excited to have him now! But 2 reports state its a sport hernia that may require surgery.
We'll find out tomorrow the extent of any injuries he supposedly has. Let's cross our fingers he'll be ready to play and does not need surgery.
If you google him, you'll run into a couple of articles that discuss this.
No more offensive droughts please.....
Your "worst poster of all time" quote below your avatar doesn't even begin to describe you. Duncan owns Garnett...
no ..damn..lol
Worst Poster of All-Time
You're better off brushing your teeth with a chain saw than trying to convince Spursdaone that his takes are lame.
You are a SporkKiller.
I just laughed and threw up in mouth all at once...
Lets hope he can help the team
Go spurs
Ok, I've heard he is an interior presence, and also that he's crap on D. Is he at least a shot blocker?
As long as Gooden doesn't still have that thing he had growing on the back of his neck, during the Cavs Spurs Finals two years ago, I'm happy with this signing to help out Timmy.
Kinda cryptic.
You're ing re ed.
well his defense sucks. but he will provide a different angle for us. afterall, we cant all have guys that are well arounded.
