PTR Predicts that Pendergraph Will be Our Backup SF/Capology

[gameFACE]

He tried 4 three pointers in his entire career(3 years). Not a kind of SF in Spurs norms.

I think Pop is thinking him to use as PF against Miami or Golden State for small-line-ups.

Damn, I was wondering if he could shoot the three.

Dwight Howard is 6'9" without shoes. ESPN and Dwight himself say he is 6'11". Most big men in the NBA are probably 6'7"-6'9" without shoes anyway.

@ Jeff Pendergraph playing small forward. No offense to whoever wrote that but that's a terrible take. He's somewhat immobile for a bigman. Small forward? No way.

Maybe he can knock down the open oberto/McDyess/Thomas looks if his mid range, wide open shot is as reliable as those videos make it seem to be.

my projected bench. we all know pop plays his in bents. newbs have to impress their way into the rotation... or collect dust on the bench.

i'm very anxious for the resolution of amnesty/trade bonner. but even before the resolution. i highly doubt pendergraph will play much 3. i suspect the spurs could live with keeping bonner, but equally suspect they won't. i'd like to see him dumped to the raptors for acy or a protected 2nd.

That is what I am thinking the Spurs are thinking. They don't want him to be a 3 point threat but someone they can kick out a pass to in the pick and roll and he knocks down that mid-range jumper consistently. His release is a little iffy, but I think Chip would be able to help with that. The kid looks like he has an ability to get his own misses and looks to be very confident in his abilities. I think we need a person that can come in and give energy at the 3 or 4 position after Kawhi goes to the bench. I think also being around a good mixture of veterans and younger players will help in his development. The Spurs would not have signed him if they didn't see any potential in him after all.

He'll be a PF/C
Pop will rest Duncan/Splitter for stretches, and this dude will fill the missing starting spot.
