    I think I'll wait for him to do something more than trade drives with Derrick Dial before declaring Hairston call-up material.
    They can call him up and leave him in Austin, right? At this point that's all I want them to think about doing.

    True enough, but the Spurs are so deep at the guard positions I would just want someone bigger.

    Yeah, see my other post about Sims. I don't care if he doesn't know the defense, just rotate around him and tell him to step out of the lane every two and a half seconds.

    another game or two of that kind in the D league and Hairston will be gone. no matter if Spurs need him now or not, if they don't use a roster spot for him, they will regret it big time in a year or so. Spurs also need some solutions in a future that isn't that far away. I'm pretty sure Ime won't be re signed (more likely he will be part of a deadline trade), he's somehow ok as a 3rd stringer, but the upside just isn't there. Finley will be here for 2 years at most.
    Hairston could take the role of either. best case, take the role and minutes of Ime in his 1st year, then take the role of Finley. as mentioned, Hairston doesn't display the perfect size for a wing, but thanks to his fantastic leaping ability he plays much bigger than either Ime and Finley do.
    so, call him now, in two months (or earlier) this will make much sense when the Spurs trade for a big and will need the expiring contract of Ime as a filler.
    one year from now we will celebrate this move as we currently celebrate the acquisition of Mason or drafting Hill.
