rasho alters a lot of shots and rotates very well. he is a presence in the paint, just isn't the best rebounder or offensive player. rebounding isn't the only way to be a presence in the paint. you need to get a clue.
If he isn't anywhere near Ben Wallace then his defense doesn't make up for his limited offensive skills and weak ass rebounding. A couple of blocks a night doesn't make a great defender. The guy has no presence in the paint. Stop trying to make him something he's not.
Damn, Spurs fans love mediocrity if it comes with a white face (see Barry, Brent).

He rotates so well that he can't snag a board these days to save his life. Rotation means little if you don't have the presence.

Holt's Parrot instead of Holt's Cat?
Sanders will be a good practice player. He is insurance as was stated earlier.
Rasho and Nazr have their pluses and minuses. Rasho is a decent defender and boxes out pretty good. Nazr has the energy and is good on offense until he pump-fakes and travels. He also has butterfingers when the ball is passed to him. He is a demon offensive rebounders though. Rasho has been inconsistent on the offensive end but is a good matchup when we play teams like Houston, Miami and other teams with big and slow centers.
Melvin Sanders is really good defensively. If he learned well from Bruce he could be our next bruce, or another bruce alongside of bruce, if that makes sense.
Sanders is too small to be the next Bruce. Sanders is about as tall as Parker.
Sanders blows.
I also thought Sanders was very good defensively. I don't know if he can ever be as good as Bruce because of the height differential but he is talented defensively and likely has more offensive potential than Bruce.
Let's not forget that Bruce almost didn't stick in the NBA either. Boris Diaw looked like a bust until he was traded to Phoenix. I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Sanders as "not NBA material" yet. I don't mind the signing since it is mostly for insurance purposes anyhow.
I think I heard on the news tonight that Pop said something about Sanders having good "fiber". I think that translates to "he knows the system". Which has been mentioned before. Just thought I'd pass that along.

Might mean he responds when he's yelled at.
Or eats alot of bran....
Or he has good "moral fiber," Which was the first thing that I thought of. Most likely not.
Maybe the Spurs needed someone to bring the fiber donuts to practice.
...or that he's willing to be treated like because the Spurs are his only ticket into the league?
What minor leaguer wouldn't be so willing?
As in his only ticket.
As in so what?
As in let's hope we don't have to play this guy in the postseason.
, you all year about not having a guy like Mel. Now that we have him, all you can do is about having him.
Bravo.
I wanted a vet as the 5th swing. The 'project' would be the 6th.
It's still March.
The vetrans didn't have the fiber! (I should be doing homework).
