Future Austin Spur.
Who is that man with the massive, Peyton Manning-like forehead, tbh?..
He seems pretty bad at basketball..
I don't know, but I think he played his college ball at Cal.
Just wearing the number of FGs he's hit on the season...
Austin Toro?
THe Toros became the Spurs I think.
where is the "worst case scenario : Boris Diaw" re ?
The guy's a rookie. Give him a break.He got good shots, just couldn't get them to fall.
^^it's a joke thread, tbh, just looking for something to discuss after that boring game..
He is really raw, though..
He's actually the opposite of raw, his shot is just not faliing.
Just throwing this out there, but rookie Diaw averaged 1.3ppg/2.8rpg/1.0apg in his first 4 games. And he was playing 15 minutes a game (Anderson is averaging 14) tbh.
He looks really slow and awkward/uncomfortable, tbh..
I hope he's raw, because if not, then..
I'm not down on him, he barely has any experience, I'm just saying it doesn't look like he's anywhere near ready for real minutes IMO..
He's slow, but he already knows the offense tbh. If he can fix his shot I think he can be a rotational piece by the end of the season.
I think he's doing good so far, tbh. Just needs to work on his shot. His defense has actually been better than I expected.
He was looking pretty comfortable bringing the ball up the floor last night (while CoJo was also out there), and he wasn't a bad shooter in college. Makes me wonder if Chip has been working with him to rebuild his shot.

He's 20, and plays an old man's game. He's not athletically gifted, he just plays with pace and deliberation. I'm sure Pop thought he was doing him a solid by giving him minutes in both LA games, but he was probably nervous playing in front of UCLA fans.
Sean seems really sold on him. He said that there were only two players the Spurs drafted that got him up off the couch yelling during the draft boradcast. One was Tim, and the other one was Slow Mo. He says it will be a couple of years, though, but that he will be VERY good.
Yeah, when he said that I was like "really Sean?" But ok. it, let's go Slow Mo!
Same as the number of FGs kobe hit this game
I think that Chip is fixing his shot. And usually when you are fixing your shot, you will go into a shooting slump because you are used to your old shot, while your brain tells you that you need to shoot the new way, and it all gets jumbled up thats why your shot will be off. Thats why alot of players cant fix their shots, because when this happens, they think that their old shot is better, and they revert back to it.
The slomo moniker was cute during the offseason but being slow as with a fat dome against NBA players is painful to watch.
Truth bomb. Dude is really slow tbh, hope he pans out though
I like the kid...
He looks raws, but he reminds me a lot of Kawhi in his rookie year in terms of just playing within his limits...
I think he is going to be good. Seems to know the offense. He will only improve.
He'll have no problem at this level on offence, I just don't see him being able to defend NBA quality wings. Get him to add 30lbs and put him in the post and he'll excel.
