Nice!
Read an interesting tidbit today about the reason why Splitter wore #21 in Europe. Don't know if this was talked about before but it was the first time I ever heard this.
"Splitter, the 28th overall pick in 2007, idolized Duncan growing up. He said he wasn't ready to play in the NBA until now.
Splitter - who wore No. 21 in Europe because of Duncan - characterized his game as running the floor quickly for a player of his size. He also said he likes to play the pick-and-roll offense run by the Spurs."

Nice!
i wonder if he changed his number or was forced too
This gets better and better...
I don't think wearing #21 was an option lol
Yeah saw it on woai tonight, I bet Splitter chose 22. Really cool story.
Can't wait for TD to mentor this guy. He's gonna be really good in the future.
is he tryin to pull a kobe 24 = 23+1 better then jordan by +1
splitter 22 = 21+1![]()
The Spurs are a basketball powerhouse once again!
Go Spurs GOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice, 22 is my number.
Yeah in the press conference they said 21 wasn't an option but he was coming to the team with his idol so he had absolutely no qualms about changing his number to 22.
lol the premature ejac on this board since yesterday is ridiculous
I knew it.
We're going to be good with this guy. Hopefully Timmy shows him post moves.
Great
Like we need another gay cliché anecdote
22?
Maybe Splitter also idolized Emmitt Smith growing up?
....in Brazil.
