That's absurd - but mark for s and giggles.Should we mark this for when he's the 2010-2011 version of Keith Bogans?
When I wake up tomorrow morning, this thread better be gone

Or what?
It will be. See that red X at the upper right corner of your browser? Click on it, and the thread will disappear, like magic.
What's gary Neal done since the bobcats game for him to be given guaranteed minutes?
Are you implying that Neal has been so horrible they're bringing in Udoka?
He had an okay 2008 and a good playoff series vs the hornets. Besides that he wasn't that great, was pretty bad in 09. Hope he doesn't stick around really. Danny Green may have a bigger upside really. The same for Temple>Quinn. I don't get it.
hopefully he won't have cement shoes and can give 5 minutes a half of non-hurtful ball.
Then Manu's minutes at SF can start to come down as the days off become less frequent.
But the last time I saw him play he looked completely done, and has probably looked that way for a couple of seasons now.
actually that intentional foul mishap seems like just the thing to send Pop into a doghousing fury.
The only other thing Neal could have done worse would have been to pull his jersey over his head during live play and give up an easy transition score.
Are you kidding me? Dude was a horrible defender 3 seasons ago. I can't imagine how far he's regressed now with further age.
I just had flashbacks of Bowen sitting down in Game 1 of the 2008 WCF, Spurs up 20, and Udoka coming in and getting incinerated by Kobe...
And that was two seasons ago... terrible fit, IMO.
I know he's coming in to fill the end of the bench, but as timvp said, why bring him back if he's not going to see the floor?
I actually fear for both Neil and Anderson (when he comes back) minutes with this signing.
I'm implying it's a try out contract because since Anderson went down the bench wings are . Gary Neal has been putrid and there's no one else. If idols sucks that bad he could be gone. But the argument he'll take minutes from younger guys, again, who? The only younger guy is out till January.

Mike Monroe
...Though they had two weeks to sign a 13th, Udoka is expected to join them no later than Friday at home against the Mavericks.
...The Spurs’ player payroll after Udoka’s addition will stand at $68.45 million, $1.86 million below the luxury tax ceiling.
Ima boo Ime
Again, outside of the bobcats game, what has Neal done to earn guaranteed minutes?
Anderson is out till january.
Gary has been pretty good for a NBA rookie. He doesn't look lost, he's not afraid to shot, and you can't tell me he doesn't hustle on defense. Sure, he's lost sometimes and he will make mistakes. That's part of being a rook in the league on a new system.
I'll be greatly surprised if Udoka plays any better though. And honestly, at least Neil has some upside to him. Udoka is already done.
Or since Neal has been terrible shooting threes and not good at anything else....
Ime would fare better in a fight. Totally makes sense.
god damn it, now I have to think about that atrocity.
That was the beginning of the end for Bowen under Pop.
What upside?
Do they have drills to regain athleticism? Ya know, that same argument you maid for not resigning Jefferson?
Neal outside of one game has stunk.
This must mean there are zero swing prospects out there the Spurs actually like right now or are available.
I hope this is just a move done to keep the roster at the minimum until the Spurs can find someone who they think has a chance to be an nba player.
Hopefully the same applies to Quinn at the point spot.
Its fine if you disagree with everyone here but did you actually read the reasoning?
Udoka cannot defend, his movement is extremely poor, based on recent years. Him aging a year doesnt necessarily help his cause. The uptempo system is creating more shots but based on recent years, he can't shoot either.
