Spurs Waive Cousin, Kabongo and Maggette

[bayareaspursfan]

I guess it will be fells backing KL

[Ginobili3]

Yeah, looks like Fells. Wonder why they didn't waive him instead of Maggette

[waisman]

want SF

[cd98]

Maggette looked pretty bad yesterday in Denver. Maybe he was gassed because of the al ude, but probably he just sucks...hence he was cut.

[benefactor]

Kybongo too.

[monkeypunk]

Kybongo too.

This is what sucks, kid looks like he has potential.

[MAx_Eric]

As expected
Bonner and De Colo should be cut as well!!

[Texas_Ranger]

Manu will get injured playing SF.... But at least there are still 100 guards and 3 backup PG's and none of them looks good.

[ace3g]

Kybongo still expected to go to the Toros, like Woj reported a while back

[TimDunkem]

I liked Kybongo. He's surprisingly strong, plays hard, and finishes well at the rim. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up on an NBA roster this year, or the next

No surprises really. Maggette looked done in the Denver game.

I would love to see him added to the staff in some capacity and be a mentor to the young guys.

I wonder if the Spurs bring in someone like Howard or Pietrus?

[Dex]

Not surprised at the cuts, but surprising that they made them this early.

That leaves only Fells and Nwaelelelalaaloo as preseason fodder, which is going to mean a lot of minutes for rotation and semi-rotational players.

[jeebus]

Meh. Diaw can be the backup SF along with Beli. Non issue.

[Bruno]

It was quick but if Maggette has some health issues, it wasn't necessary to wait more.

Spurs will likely start the season with 14 players and a hole in their roster because Nwaelele and Fells should be also waived. Spurs will need to be creative to fix that hole. Maybe they could go after a player waived by another team later this month.

[timtonymanu]

Spurs still need that backup SF, but Young and Maggette both sucked so this isn't surprising at all.

If Kabongo is really going to the Toros, then that's good news. With the inconsistencies of our backup PGs, having an option like Kabongo shouldn't hurt.

Damn, just a couple of years ago Kabongo was supposed to be a sure-fire NBA point guard.

[bklynspursfan]

Maggette was standing in the corner a lot on offense not really moving much...looked pretty winded, but maybe there's more to it

[spurraider21]

I can't believe we traded Kirilenko to the Nets

A player like Florent Piétrus would be nice, at least based on his recent play. Defensive energy off the bench is always good.

[Darkwaters]

I'm bummed about Kabongo getting waived. Definitely hope he hits the Toros.

[Biernutz]

That's not going to happen.....a trade is another thing....

[Darkwaters]

Not to mention Paul George...
