Last workout tomorrow wit the Spurs!!

Definitely sounds like a prospect at 59.

[K-State Spur]

There's no way he's 6'9, or even close to it. Less athletic than Bonnet.

But a better player. Probably more along the lines of a 6'7, 6'8 guy. Reminds me a lot of a DeMarre Carroll kind of player. Its very unlikely your gonna find a stud here. Hes the type of guy that would be a decent fit at the end of the roster. I wouldnt mind seeing him on our summer league roster.

Not sure who you're expecting to be there at 59.

Carroll is MUCH more athletic.

Not much likely to be there at 59, but that doesn't change that ratliffe is still undersized and not particularly athletic.

if he had a little range, that would help, but virtually every shot he took at mizzou was within 2 feet.

Blair>>>>Ratliffe.

I tried to post this thread a long time ago, before I knew the Think Tank posts had to be approved by a mod.

As has been alluded to, Ratliffe would be a great addition for the Spurs.... if we didn't already have such a similar player in DeJuan Blair. There's not a whole lot of reason to have both. He most definitely is a good player though. Tremendous touch around the basket, and handled the Baylor bigs on defense with zero problems. Not sure how he got torched by Kyle O'Quinn though, that game alone may have knocked him to being undrafted.
