    In reality what team wants a defensive specialist besides us?

    Scoring is the name of the game in this league and always will be now that it is so commercialized.

    Interesting fact about athletic ability. Lighty is stronger and has a better vert than Leonard.

    My take is this: we want a stopper and thats fine. But we will have to have one with some sort of offensive game. Leonard might be a long, athletic player but his shooting will hurt us. Especially since we need a scorer now. Again, it could be a decent pick if we run like the regular season and not go to trying to have Tim dominate like the playoffs

    Saying Lighty is 'something' is a of a reach. Especially considering that not one team wanted him in this "sucky" draft.
    I just wonder where a player like Lighty would be drafted in a strong draft class.

    Lighty wouldn't get drafted because he's 23 years old already. Teams draft on potential as much as what players have already shown.

    Doesn't mean he can't or won't be a good pro. It's just that no one was going to take the plunge on a guy who's already wysiwyg.

    Matt Howard was scrappy as , but damn if I haven't seen him miss about a billion chippies around the rim. If he could actually score down low Butler might have beaten Duke or UConn and have a championship right now.

    Meanwhile, dude in no way is a SF. And bringing him up in this thread still leaves me baffled what OP was trying to say.

    I'd have more respect for SDSU if their coach was well-regarded and had any sort of success in the NCAA Tournament in the past, or success in coaching future NBA players. Oh, wait...

    When SDSU makes consecutive runs in the tourney you call me. I could pay players to come to my ins ution in San Diego too. Now THATS COACHING.


    Notice how everyone danced around any validity or solid points in this thread other than me. Next time you have an opinion back it up with a fact, not just another opinion.

    Claro que si!

    We already have Lighty. His name is Danny Green. Green is also ahead of the curve as he was with the team last year.

    Move on.

    They can't make another impressive run in the NCAAs next year. Because their best player was drafted into the NBA.

    If the OP is an indication of what a blind mind is, I will gladly watch them all get hit by cars.

    We all have different opinions about players that we have seen. You back your opinions with facts that support your opinion only when the facts fit. You like to dismiss opinions or points that do not support your contention. Fine. We got it. The facts presented are statistical in nature for the most part. And these facts do not necessarily accurately represent an opinion about a players game in college and may be radically different from what the player might accomplish in the pros. So its all supposition, the evaluation of a college player becoming a good pro is a very difficult process for most of these players.

    And I personally do not appreciate the racist remarks that you use to dismiss Spurs fans in general. I suggest you stop. thanks.

    Most NBA teams, past and present, want one. Not all have a highly skilled specialist but many covet one.

    Memphis didn't bring in Tony Allen and Shane Battier for their scoring. OKC doesn't have Nick Collison for his points. The job he did on Zebo was better than what Dice did. Dallas didn't bring in Chandler and Brewer for offensive purposes.

    lol thinking having a ton of depth at PG/SG is more important than having a stud wing defender.

    Duncan anchors our paint defense. He needs one more person to help him out now.

    Leonard has a chance to take our team up a notch defensively by locking down the perimeter with his freakishly long body. We are instantly a way better team if he ends up being that defender.
