Spurs are firing on cylinders right now. Pop is, apparently, in the groove. As a 13th man? You can do worse. Front court involves duncan/mcd/blair/bonner/splitter, backcourt of parker/ginobili/neal/hill/rj/anderson. How the could udoka not compliment that? In a limiter role, what does he bring to the table that's bad? Sure, every 13th man has his weaknesses, but I think Udoka has some strengths too.
As a role player, he's a terrible signing. But right now? Sounds like a great third-string insurance policy.

LOL, who the were you disappointed people expecting the spurs could get?
Smallball point guard when Parker's out of the game?
I disagree with just about everyone here, Udoka can fill in at the 3 but he can excel at small ball 4...The guy may have had a couple of amazing workouts for the Spurs, and most importantly he fills a stopgap need with previous corporate knowledge.
Here's what I see, a somewhat dedicated defender who doesn't have a steep learning curve that can step in right now for the few weeks that we need him. Anybody else would have to be worked into the system, Udoka is a guy who knows the system, might benefit from the new uptempo spurs game, and he doesn't have to last more than a few months.
This leaves the spot open for James Anderson.
We can put him at the four and slide Jefferson to the five so gets his wish.
Bring back Stoudamire to play the one.
This is insane! He is more washed up than Bruce is!
maybe the spurs got him just to specifically combat artest.
Actually he's only there to take more minutes away from Splitter.
This, this, this, this.
Not developing Splitter + things like this = First or second round bounce.
Or we might win the chip with Doka. Ya never know.

A new young player they could comically overrate until he got cut two to three months from now.
13th man, won't see minutes unless during blowouts. He knows the system and will help in practice - I also don't see him sticking around the whole season either.
Give Okeydokey credit: at least he didn't line up for Miami.
Spurs should have kept Danny Green instead!
If it's going to be a comeback tour for washed up over 30 players . . .
I'd much rather have Antonio Daniels instead of Quinn than have Udoka instead of Green, and I didn't even like Green.
the reasonable fear is that Udoka is here to succeed where Masterpiece Simmons failed: to take time away from people like Neal and Anderson (when he's healthy enough to play).
I think it's a decent signing considering the lack of alternatives and his experience in the system. Will also be a good teacher for Neal, Anderson, and maybe even RJ as far as defending. There was a lot of disappointment among Portland fans lat year when he was waived.
What the ....wtf???? IME UDOKA?????
Lol...years later my signature still applies.
Should we mark this for when he's the 2010-2011 version of Keith Bogans?
Classic ST meltdown over the 13th spot, in other words, NOTHING.
Who's the young wing player he would take minutes from?
Someone who can run.
Mark away.Should we mark this for when he's the 2010-2011 version of Keith Bogans?
If anything else Udoka plays hard but I'm not sure he has much left.
This is what really dropped the turd in my punch bowl.
