You mean when Carlisle finally played him over JJ "El Raton" Barrea out of total desperation and they still lost the game? That time?
What are you talking about? He didn't play until game 6, in which he dominated the entire time he was on the court, an honest spurs fan will tell you so... Which seems to be getting scarce these days

Yea I know I agree... But someone of his ilk may be possible... I just don't who right now
Actually I think he played him in game 3 he played well never played again till game 6 stunk that game rebenched.
He didn't stink. He scored in double figures iirc . . . Carlisle just inexplicably didn't go back to him. Trust issues tbh.
The game in which rick finally decided to wisen up and try not to repeat the same mistake he made with T. Prince by allowing Roddy to dominate you guys? Yeah i think thats the one...
This should clear things up for you...

if you don't have time to watch a 2 minute video, then stop talking
I don't need your link. I remember the game perfectly. He played well. My comment at his playing time was an obvious jab at Carlisle. Sorry it went over your head.
lol dominate
Who won the game/series again?
he has a knack for trusting terry in the 4th quarter... his veteran security blanket.... which has killed us recently. He sat out 2 entire quarters and scored 16 points with great efficiency. Also, i believe 13 of those 16 points all came on penetration.... getting around both george hill or parker, then tim duncan. You've got to give the guy props, his name recognition sky rocketed after that game around the league. Definitely a contributing factor to why gms recognize him around the league now.
most people think that rick sat him for an actual reason, and i've had to explain to multiple fans that didn't see the game that rick was an idiot. Seeing some of your previous posts, i thought you may not have watched the game either, my bad. You don't need to impulsively respond with the the rudest retort you can think of at the time. This is a discussion over the reputation of one basketball player.... calm down buddy.
Yes, Roddy DOMINATED the game when he went in. You should remember that well.
wow after hearing this my ass really bleeds for cuban and their bag fans...lol Roddy B....DOMINATION!
He ain't no Dragic.
What posts would those be? The ones where I overrate a decent one playoff game 20 minute performance of a rookie who barely played otherwise?
He played in games 3 and 5. So that's wrong.
7 for 13 in 21 minutes is a very good game, but hardly dominating. Then again, you think 6/28 is overwhelming.
All this aside, you're missing the most important set of facts pertinent to Roddy's current value, which you laughably assert couldn't be higher:
1. He injured his foot in August and had surgery shortly thereafter.
2. The projected recovery/rehab was 8 weeks.
3. We are closing in on five months post-injury and he has yet to return.
4. Until he gets back on the court and shows that retains the physical attributes he demonstrated last year, his value is under great doubt.
with the amount of responses im getting with the Roddy topic, it's obvious you guys worry about him as a player or a peice in a potential trade..... fairly obvious. Anyway, this argument will be obsolete in about 2 weeks or so... or whenever the Roddy's coming back
Following a series of laughable posts, this is the funniest of all.
No, but im not going to go over all your past posts this week just to continue this debate. All im saying is whenever i have a sports debate with YOU, it gets rude (which has just been this week) Just chill and remember the debate is for FUN.
because im accusing you of worrying about Roddy after my former posts that detail his playoff success gets a flood of negative responses?... it's actually a pretty reasonable assumption to make

Since nobody is stating the obvious about Beaubois, I'm will do it:
Beaubois main assets are his speed and his athleticism. He broke his foot, an injury that has the upside to slow him and to turn him into an average young player. He still isn't back 5 months after this injury while he should have been back after 2/3 months. Right now, there is a gigantic red flag above Beaubois.
To make it worse, Cuban said at last trade deadline "I'm not going to trade him. There are maybe one or two guys in the league I'll trade him for. Other than that, he's pretty much untouchable. It'd have to be an incredible player. There are maybe one or two guys that we'd include him in [a trade for]. That's how highly we think of him." . If I'm a GM and I can get Beaubois for a player who hasn't a MVP level, I will immediately ask myself "where is the trap?" and comes to the conclusion that he is likely damaged goods.
To sum up, Beaubois hasn't a really high trade value right now. He will need to come back and have some good/great games to have back a huge trade value.
About as reasonable as asserting that 6/28 is overwhelming.
He's an upgrade over Terry or Butler. Given their record, I'd say that's all the push they need.
lol 20 minute sample
That's very reasonable.
Regardless, the quote did come before the injury.... and its WAY over doing it to say a broken foot renders a supremely athletic player as "average." MOST players come back from broken feet and much worse injuries than that. Most recently, Blake Griffin. When you get older, yeah.... injuries may effect your overall athletic ability even when your healthy again.
Roddy's injury on the other hand is a broken 5th metatarsel (sp?). I've had the same injury, it's common in basketball when you come down on some else's foot. It's a non weight baring bone that usually takes 2/3 months to get back from. However, Roddy tried to come back too early and re-injured it in November.
Roddy's injury is actually quite common in basketball, it's just that he tried to get back too early. Now if he had a blake griffin injury or a greg oden injury.... it'd be different. Though one of them appears to be just fine....
Again.... We were offered top ten lottery picks for Roddy (by at least two teams)..... and I THINK that came after the injury. Regardless, I just think that with all the hype Roddy got last year it would have to be a season ending injury to change his value so dramatically.... and his injury is pretty common in basketball.
6/28 when you have over 30 something players to choose from and the 2nd place player receives only half the amount of votes. So yes, at least doubling the amount of votes that any other player received is "overwhelming."
About as reasonable as asserting that 6/28 is overwhelming.
Get it?
erasing a 20+ point defecit in 20 minutes? Dominating
I was never rude. You are a little too sensitive.
