Even our D-League can’t get a break

This team has been losing a lot of games lately. Uncharacteristic for a Austin Spurs team.

[Pavlov]

Since Trice is with Team USA for a couple weeks wins will be tough to come by.

It's nice to see him recover and add things to his game, unfortunately he'll probably be in gsw, rox, okc or lakers next season

His shot is less hesitant now. But, 4 - 11 from 3 at 36%. Still needs improvement.

36% is just fine. If he shoots 100 shots, he’d score 108 points. To score that many points shooting twos, you’d need to hit 54%. If he could shoot 36% in the NBA, he’d be on someone’s roster as a 3 and D guy.

Would be nice if the Spurs would at least kick the tires on this guy to see if he could help down the stretch.

It’s easy to talk about kicking the tires. If they cut Pon or Cunningham, though, that costs the team several hundred thousand dollars to kick the tires on a 15th man who may never develop. Invite him to training camp again, though, and hope he has better luck with his health.

+1

I'd also like to see his rebounding numbers improve but with his defensive instincts still there after the injury and less hesitation to shoot - Spurs might have something if they are able to keep him in the future.

How much did it cost the Spurs to waive Rasual Butler for Kevin Martin (just to kick the tires during the playoffs)?

They'll do it if it makes sense basketball wise and not because $100k is at stake.

Chump change in NBA terms or keep players who will be lucky to be in the league next year. If you can't take a risk to see if you got something with the 15th position then you either are a complete team or in complete denial.

Still odd Spurs didn't keep 15th spot open to tryout 10-day and G-League players.

Huestis adding things to his game, there is no reason to have Pondexter and Dante on the currently roster.

I don't know if you've noticed, but Austin keeps on losing! Something is wrong with the Spurs system or maybe this new way of playing exposes the Spurs system.

Their only point guard is playing for the national team.

[Drom John]

G League is "kicking the tires."
"Taking him out for a spin" would be a call-up.
