Nice, a defensive, rolling big man.
Now, does LaMarcus have a backup?
Is it going to be Kyle?![]()
Nice, thanks. At first, I was worried he'd be like Ayres but he looks to have decent hands for a big man and a good motor.

we will see if it pays off especially if letting boban go was a mistake and if dedmon is half the player boban is tbh
I like that his shot blocking presence allows our guards to be more agressive defensively on the perimeter, like OKC guards had with Ibaka and Clips with Jordan. Being able to more confidently go over rather than under a screen could pay dividends to their three point defense
I asked why would Dedmon choose Spurs over GSW. I said both would showcase his talents but GSW would be better. I still think GSW is better to showcase his talents. The money difference is significant though. If I were him I would that would be a deciding factor give they will both showcase my talents. You're acting like I positioned the Spurs as some third rate Kings like team compared to GSW.
With good athleticism and a 7'4"wingspan.
Holy , good signing.
Pau, I don't think he will have a big problem. His veteran savvy and natural bball IQ is so high, like Manu, that he should assimilate quickly and Pop is going to give him plenty of minutes to do so.
The other guys? Yeah. Agree.
I believe we're going to see a lot of backup minutes go to Anderson as a calming influence to the noobs.
Looks like he can really score.......on Gasol.
YEEYAAAAAAAAH!!!!!
Just watch plebes.
Dedmon's Twitter account is all decked out in Spurs logos already![]()
So Dedmon is the only ring protector? Pau and Aldridge are typically flat footed when defending the post!
Not true - Pau, while not nimble on the perimeter is a very solid post/rim protector. LMA is not bad either.
Don't know tbh. But I can't remember the last time the pop fully utilized a long athletic big man like him. Pop usually avoided these types of players. But I really hope I'm wrong .
Protect the ring, he will. But first acquire it, he must.
Like the signing, don't like the idea that his guy is currently our third big out of three.
I guess we will need another PF to replace LA. Are we still in conversation to get Thomas Robinson?
Nice pickup, especially for the room exception. When the Rockets turned to Nene yesterday, I thought he'd end up with the Warriors (they'll probably turn to Reed now). Nice to see someone spurn those arrogant pricks.
In terms of players who were around for more than a cup of coffee, he joins Simmons as probably the most athletic Spurs since prime Robinson.
It'll interesting to see Ginobili in the pick-and-roll with him, though the potential lack of shooting (depending on who the forward opposite Anderson is) surrounding it could cramp it some.
Definitely, but I doubt it would be Robinson or anyone of his ilk, since he's essentially a center on offense. They need more of a floor spacer.
PATFO likely have another magic trick up their sleeves!!!
Just by sheer size, I think Dedmon gets minutes. But the point you are seemingly making is interesting. There are so many new guys, young guys that Pop has a lot to figure out and there is going to be experimenting.
Really good pickup, we needed someone like him badly
