That guy is good.
The only question I have is that he played for Dusan Ivkovic, one of the best in the business, so he will look way better that he might be.
Too bad Blair ruined his value and hasn't filled out his potential with his fat gains.
Once he got too fat to even dunk, he was too fat to pursue rebounds like before, and was too slow to try to rectify his defensive mistakes.
Spurs wasted time with him playing while at the same time killing Splitter's value and wasting the cheap years of his contract and keeping him either at DNP-CDs or in bench minutes.
lol James at 30.
"Look at det shot blocker! Peecup det fone!"
I'll shoot myself if we get this 27 year old guy, or a Greek got in the first round. I rather it be a first rounder for the future, or draft that Furkan Aldmier. I still dont see the Spurs adding too much salary as I hope they will think big of reloading in free agency next summer with Manu's contract off the books.
A little drastic, are we?
No Greeks.
For the Spurs at this point, I don't think Bernard's age is a negative. If anything, it's a positive because he's probably more mature, willing to be coached, less likely to tweet while on the way to Whataburger etc. Now whether or not he can actually contribute is a different issue, but at #30 most players don't pan out. If the Spurs drafted this guy and he didn't pan out, I doubt it would be because he didn't put in the effort or got caught up in dumb youthful mistakes. His real problem is most likely having a neolithic post game.
Blair + Neal for Warriors 7th pick would be heaven.
The Spurs will never sign stars. If their strategy revolves around capspace they're going to end up like Detroit throwing huge money at crap like Gordon and Villenueva.
No way GS do that, we would be robbing them blind for the second time this season.
/Begin Speculation
Some sort of 3 way with Rockets maybe?
7th to HOU
12th & Blair to GSW
18th to SAS
/End Speculation

Greek forward Kostas Papanikolaou gains momentum, a puncher's chance to go to Oklahoma City at 28 or early second round, sources tell Y!
hmm...
I still think that if the Spurs acquire the Warriors 30th or 35th pick, they may use it on Kim English. He fits the organizational philosphy to a T, both skillwise and mentally.
To be honest, I'm a little surprised I'm the only one who's posted this so far. That he'd be a great fit for the Spurs seems like an absolute given to me.
Congratulations. You managed to make both teams worse.
I'm pretty leery of guys who start moving up quickly just before the draft. It's almost like a bidding war, and the winner ends up overpaying.
My memory isn't great, though. With players who dramatically rise in the waning moments before the draft, how do they tend to do in the league? I guess I'd want to know how it works for guys who plummet as well.
lol Tbh looking back at it Spurs got robbed of a 1st round pick in a deep ass draft.
You're the only one that believes this.
Early I heard Steve Kerr talking about teams will to give up roughly 3mil for a pick at the end of the first round. They were talking about the decision from different perspectives like the teams owner, gm, coach,... They basically offered us 12mil for the last pick in the first round.
Do us all a favor and just pull the trigger now. One less worthless post we will all have to read.
Come on. Do something RC. I'm growing increasingly impatient. .
Have people forgotten Blair has no ACL's? Why would teams that didn't want him then suddenly want him now?
@JMcDonald_SAEN Wouldn't be tbe first time Spurs floated Blair in trade talks. Hasn't generated a ton of interest to date.
Yeah, I don't think anything is going to happen. Just gotta live with continuing to have Blair and Bonner a part of this team.
