Keldon Johnson should get NBA minutes if he keeps playing like this
Foreal Pop is pissing me off with his BS. Big Body! And he already has a jumpshot
How is this team more interesting than the mothership team?
My only hope for the young guys is that by the time they get real NBA minutes, they'll be coached by somebody else.
The Toros really can’t be that much worse than the Spurs right now
The thing is, he looked like dog in the preseason, primarily against players also auditioning for an NBA spot. He's not ready.
It's a BAD sign if you are a first rounder, and not tearing up the g-league, but the opposite doesn't make you an NBA player, just a better prospect.
Kids these days come into the league with very few tools other than athleticism, and perhaps a jump shot. They don't have a rocker step move, they don't understand about the triple threat position and how to rip through using the defender's momentum against them, they don't know how to initiate or absorb contact and finish. As a result, they get very few open looks at the NBA level, never get to the FT line, lose confidence, and fail. It happens over and over and over, usually to about half of every draft class, including lottery picks. The Spurs have found a different way, and their cadre of successful NBA players drafted in the late 20s speaks to it's effectiveness.
I said if he keeps playing like this. If he puts up 20+ in every game Pop should get him some minutes, he can't be worse than Belinelli and the kid plays defense. It will take a while for him to get there, but not even Walker was putting up those stats on a nightly basis
I rather see Keldon getting minutes than Beli tbh
Get rid of Demar an Marco for Mo Bamba an play Lonnie Walker an Keldon Johnson. Start the freaking youth movement already. good god it cant be that hard. We're already losing so , what's the worse that could happen!?! fire Pop an let Beckey coach. The Big 3 era is over, Pop's should be too.
Belinelli was a first round draft pick, and has 13 years of NBA experience. He wouldn't tear up the G-League. But he still gets NBA minutes.
Are you sure?
Spurs play the Warriors tonight at 7:30.

Not sure if KJ can get those shots off in the big leagues. Wonder how his non layup percentage is?
He was 5/17 and 0/3, and the Spurs got blown out. Next game.
The box shows him 5/17 and 0/3 from 3P. And it shows him 7/7 from the FT line. I make that to be 17 points. But the box says he had 22 points.
Did they add another way to score in the G-League?
They ... kinda did.

Edit: But, yeah, for box score clarity, they should show 2-for-2 at the line even if only one is attempted. Otherwise it's pretty weird.
So, for example when a guy is fouled shooting a 3 he goes to the FT line for a single free throw that counts 3 points if made?
Had no idea...that would be strange to watch.
Agreed. What is with Silver and all these odd adjustments he wants to make to the game? Mid-season tournament, coaches challenges, etc.
Thanks for the info. Interesting. How has the rule been received so far? I hadn't heard of it...
