Davis is leading the NBA in True Shooting Percentage among players who've played 500+ minutes. Three 6 Latvia, baby!
Also true. Amazing that SA still managed to win 50 games that year.

He better get and invite to 3 point contest this year.
Untill Gay gets back is time to start him and play him at least 36 minutes per game, tbh.
Just have Cunningham buy him a 6 minutes breather each half and pray that doesn't go south on those stints.
I don't know if Bertans can handle starter minutes with his flimsy physique.
This is weird. I actually agree with what you are saying
You should try that more often, tbh.
Rudy Gay is trying to return on Wednesday against Dallas.

he needs to be on the court a lot more when gay is out, agreed
My man needs more shots, tbh. He's the best shooter on the team yet he's 8th on shots attempted per game? Something isn't right, tbh.
I would like to see Bertans do more than just shoot 3s, he seems capable of being able to do it.
Racist pop tbh
He's not going to get shots if he isn't getting fed at the right spot.
I'm cool with him taking mostly threes. the Basketball Gods knows we need all the threes we can take. The thing is he needs to take more. We have one of the best 5 shooters in the entire World and he's averaging 5 shots per game. Pop needs to start calling some more plays for him coming off screens.
Well, then the coaching staff should do something to feed him at the right spots. This guy isn't no Matt Bonner, he has one of the quickest triggers in the World, it shouldn't be that difficult to get him some more looks.
All the plays Pop runs for Fatty to get a three should go to Davis. Seriously, Patty has to shoot like 10% on those plays where he has to run around multiple screens and yet he still inexplicably gets a couple of those plays called for him per game.
Like Klay, like Korver, like Red . This is the type of role Bertans should have. Advanced metrics have proven that having these type of players on these type of roles is one of the best weapons you can have for an offense. We have one of the few guys that can pull this off, yet we underutilize him.
Would be 6MOY candidate if he had more playing time
this
as soon as he arrived I pointed out that he is like a tall and athletic Korver, he should be being used exactly the same way, because coming out of the screens his shoot is impossible to block due to his size
6th most underrated player in:

NBA defenses, like casual NBA fans, must not know who Bertans is because the 6-foot-10 Latvian is left open on more than 80 percent of his 3-point attempts, per NBA.com/stats. Not a great strategy for defending one of the league leaders in 3-point percentage. When Spurs fans brainstormed to give Bertans a nickname last season the best they came up with was “Baetans.”
He's underrated even by his own team, tbh.
True, but he's also a great off-ball mover, and the ball tends to move in this system.
Another of my boys, Dedmon, number one on that list
