lol not too much effort to make the real KBP show up.
Welcome back. It's better when you use proper english.
You know me quite well, Billy.
The real question is why you no longer post as KBP?
Was it the crushing defeat Greece suffered at the hands of Spain or was it VSpan's traitorous abandonment of PAO to go across town to play with Oly?

lol posting from Houston
still. i really believe that the length of teams such as the celtics and lakers would necessitate the use of splitter as we would have to match the depth these teams have in their frontcourts.
Right now, guys like KG or Gasol would toy around with Tiago IMO. He isn't ready for a task like that. His weak ass layups and hooks on offense would be an easy target for blocked shots also.
OK, we got it: you really hate Splitter. Never has a more useless player ever put on a Spurs uniform. No upside and no future to him, why don't we cut him? Or have him killed?
Can't wait to see a flurry of Samaki-esque pump fakes from Blair in the PO, along with another patented 0 for 7 triumph from Bonner.
No. Splitter has potential, upside and I think he can become a good player for us in the long run. I'm talking RIGHT NOW, he's not ready.
Don't hate on me if you bought into the whole 'He' ready to play' and he isn't...
I don't like it any more than you do. The FO obviously think Dice and Bonner can get it done next to Tim. Don't get mad at me, I'm just pointing out what I see.
I've been pretty vocal about getting help for Tim the last two seasons. NBA quality help.
And people that mention that Galis was well american before he was given a passport issued by the Greek State -assuming it was less false than a couple of decades of balance sheets of the Greek State- are traitors.
Double traitors.
Traitors of America.
And traitors of Greece.
1) As a Euro citizen, I sure am a Euro homer.
Except that Splitter is not an Euro.
2) You are probably right. Splitter was one of the TWO best centers in Euroleague. I was overestimating Bouroussis, a guy that could NOT even make the starting five of a Greek team.
3) You made my day with "my agenda" stuff. I never read anything more absurd!!!!
Ok, fair enough. But don't you agree that Gasol and Garnett would have an easier time against Blair/Bonner?

You're asking me to pick between a Giant and a Sandwich...
I don't think any of them are viable options against those teams at full strength.
If Bonner hits 7 shots from 3, then he's a viable option. If Blair puts up a 20/20 like last season against Boston, then he's viable. The thing is, pretending they'll do that consistently on a 7 game series is unrealistic, IMO.
well guys like KG or Gasol would also toy with Bonner and Blair, so there really is no point to single out Tiago on this.
IMO length will always prevail in the end, and Tiago is a better choice than Bonner and Blair for the playoffs. But he needs to get playing time otherwise he will only see Ian Mahinmi type playoff minutes.
For yet a third time, this.
Greece is horrible.
and greecian women are even more horribler...
GREECE IS AWESOME!!!!
Yum?
GREECE IS AWESOME!!!!
And yet a 34 year old Rasho is playing more minutes than Bouroussis this season.
I just do not buy the whole he is so tired from the summer excuse. For years and years, guys have played for their national teams, have come in for training camp, and still played the entire NBA season.
I agree.
The statement on Splitter by Pop tells me there is something seriously wrong, already.
Maybe Splitter is not too happy to play for 12'', or never come back in a game because he didn't foul a guy at the end of the half.
Maybe Pop thought he had another Oberto.
But Splitter is no Argie, that's for sure.
Splitter is 25 years old. Many guys at that age played well into the NBA play-offs, went home for their national team practices that are sometimes really tough, played for their team in warm up games and international tournaments, and sometimes immediately came back for training camp without barely a day or two off in between. It's December. It's been 3 1/2 months since national team play.
Also as to the comments about not much time for practice-- Any guy who wants to stay late can play all the basketball he wants against other teammates who do not get much playing time.
I just think it is a bad idea to make excuses for a guy as soon as he hits the NBA. It often does not work out well when things start this way.
lol Rasho
