    IIRC, if they waive you, they have to pay all of your guaranteed money at that time. If that's the case, they don't owe him any more money because he's been settled at the time of the cut/waive. Likely, there was a buyout, and he got some of the money in return for being cut.

    The Heat are ing stupid. They knew he ing wouldn't likely play at all this year. Why give him 300K guaranteed and then cut him? Didn't they know they might need roster spots? I'm so glad we have the front office that we have.
    Ah, so they don't owe him anything next year because they paid it all upfront when they waived him? Then the conflicting reports make sense, sort of.

    no right god what happened to pop. im sure if we traded our pick and bonner we could move up in the draft, but no pop would probably pick bonner if we had the #1 pick. we need to get young bigs, i wonder when ryan richards is coming

    Ryan Richards is already in San Antonio just rehab and shooting around. He isnt signed to any team atm.


    Hopefully he starts kissing Pop's ass early so gets some playing time when hes on the roster.

    nah lol. At best if hes developed properly as big man, I see him as a Chris Bosh type player that shoot pretty good and has range.

    Low risk move indeed. He was pretty hyped by ESPN during their draft show.

    Richards says the player he'd compare himself to in style is Chris Bosh

    God help us all, if that's true. That's all we need now is a finesse 4 - as if Bonner wasn't enough.

    Yeah, but you wanted them to pay him all year long. This is better.

    Wow. Surprising signing, but could be one that reaps substantial rewards.

    Now, a couple of questions.

    As others have already expressed, would Pop even play the guy?
    Is this strictly an end-of-the-year move? Or is it a signing with an eye on the future?
    Probably with an eye on replacing y J...........sooner rather than later hopefully.

    how has Weaver looked since he's getting more minutes now?

    Does Lyons have any potential? The few minutes I've been able to watch, he looks like a pretty decent shooter.

    Spurs Assign Da’sean Butler To Austin Toros

    SAN ANTONIO (March 28, 2011) – The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have assigned rookie Da’Sean Butler to the Austin Toros of the NBA Development League.

    Butler, a 6-7, 230-pound forward out of the University of West Virginia, was signed by the Spurs on March 25. He was originally selected by the Miami Heat with the 42nd pick in the 2010 NBA Draft. He signed with the Heat on August 30 and was later waived on October 25. He has been out of action since suffering a torn left ACL in the 2010 Final Four against Duke on April 3. Butler played four seasons with the Mountaineers, finishing with 107 career wins, the most in school history. As a senior, he was named First Team All-Big East, averaging a team-high 17.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 38 games.

    The Toros travel to Reno to take on the Bighorns Tuesday, March 29 at 9:00 p.m. before returning home to face the Texas Legends Thursday, March 31 and Saturday, April 2 at the Cedar Park Center in the final two regular season games.

    Kinda playing the Manu role on offense. Nice passer. Good D.

    Not bad. Has some stretch four potential. Needs to be more consistent like most of the Toros. Should be a better rebounder.
