Is this the guy who was supposed to be the Spurs' "savior" about 5 years ago?
please get Gordon. That backcourt would last 1/4 of the season on the court and 3/4 on the bench injured.

Are you speak of most amazing VSpan?
Interesting to read the part about Hanga being such a respected defender in Europe. Bourousis's skill set sounds like a great passing, three point shooting 7 footer that can rebound but will not be able to defend. I hope he doesn't turn into a Greek version of Matt Bonner.
Dude's legit. People keep wanting to write him off, but he'd be awesome to have in camp.
Cool, so Jones is on the market. Wonder what it would take to get him back to his form from a couple of seasons ago. Dude'd be a great fit for the starting lineup if that happened.
Can't see Mozgov coming at a price the Spurs could afford.
I believe all it would take for Jones to regain his form is a change of scenery. Get him away from the Toxic Rockets and he would be a very good player - especially on the Spurs.
It would take a drastic improvement for him to start. His game does fit well as a low-usage dirty work guy like Danny. However he'd either have to play center or LMA would have to acknowlege that he basically is a center in "Today's NBA".
As a flier, it would depend on the salary. He has enough of a track record that I doubt he'll be cheap.
I would take Terrance Jones. He seems like the type of player that Pop wants and he would wreck havoc with Kawhi and Aldridge, all of this is assuming that a scenery change is all he needs. Maybe you don't have to break the bank for him seeing as he's coming from a down season.
is he going to play linebacker for the Spurs?
Good for Patty though, I hope he tears it up next season.
surprised considering they had traded montie to the pistons (i know it got rescinded). i guess his back is all better/wasn't that much of a problem?
If only these foreign scrubs would put the same amount of work in for the Spurs then we might have an extra ring or two.
Well, it really depends on what you mean by him playing center. The dude is a slasher who can create a bit with the ball in his hands, though mostly for himself. So if you mean that he would have to be a roll-man who rebounds and finishes around the basket, I think he'd be great at it, with the added benefit of him being good spotting up (mostly because he had the handles to attack close-outs).
Defensively, he's more of a Thad Young-type of player. He can get away with guarding some threes. He wouldn't check a lot of fives, but he could probably get away with guarding guys like Griffin or Davis. His block rate is actually pretty good (he'd be basically tied with Duncan for first on the Spurs last year -- if you don't count Butler). So I don't think defense is the issue people would assume it is.
Would LMA have to adjust? Probably. But if the Spurs keep Boban or get another big center off the bench, then it's really no different.
Can you imagine if the fat two French s did offseason work like that?![]()
Is there a center the Spurs are not interested in?
I don't know how I'd feel about Terrence Jones. Obviously it'd depend on the price, but he's been injured a lot recently and even when he has played, he hasn't been too impressive.
I like Jones's play. Surprised Rockets are letting him go.
Yeah, and his injuries have been pretty scary (like nerve damage and ). That obviously makes him a risk, but it also explains why last year was a down season. He was just trying to work his way back.
