Spurs Sign Boban Marjanovic for 1-Year, $2 Million

This guy kicked arse in the summer league. Definitely good addition.

lol wot.

Whats the point of summer league. To let players pretend they are trialling for the NBA? You basically have to go 30/15/10 to get a contract in the summer league.

It's a good experience for incoming rookies to get some burn before playing with the big boys.

Don't know but he's a serb so he won't need a group hug every time his feelings get hurt.

Honestly, I just think we're just excited about the thought of Bonner and Errors not being on the team.

Not sure if this is posted, but before signing Boban, Spurs had an offer for Joel Freeland, but he turned it down to make more money in Russia.

[QUOTE=BadboyHari;8113018]knows how to shoot, assist.. and he can be angry


so from what i see, he shoots 40% from 3.

Interesting signing, he could be the mix of Rasho and Oberto. The more video I view the more I like it a little bit more.

[Nero5]

he gets up and down the floor well for his size

[Marcus Bryant]

What makes his game, as shown in the various highlight reels, interesting, is his shooting and passing touch. Plus that he does not appear to be afraid of contact. I think that his general lack of quickness would prevent him from being more than a 5th or 4th big in the NBA. Still, on offense you could see him stepping out from the paint at the start of a set with the other big going into the post, with the ball flowing to him either for a jumper or him hitting a cutter to the rim. Of course, he himself can go into the post, and with the general dearth of 5s in the NBA, posting him up in small stretches will probably be an option.

Regardless of quickness, he takes up space and unlike a lot of 7'2"+ tall players this guy is built solidly. This is a very nice addition and of course increases the ability of Pop to keep the minutes of the top 4 bigs in the rotation down some during the reg season as well as to enable Duncan and Aldridge to play more 4.

I feel I have a legitimate concern in that what is PATFO gonna do to prevent him from eating Patty Mills?

Spurs just signed Mr. Larson

I'm so waiting for a photo of a Bobi-Mills high five. Although their a good chance it will never happen...

[Slomo]

Greetings from Delije(Red Star fans). Boban was able to make a much better deal, but he chose SA. He may have problems with defensive 3 seconds. It will take time to get used to, but you undoubtedly get exceptional player, and a very good man.

Dobrodošao!

[BillMc]

But will it be "Bobo...Boban...Bonner!" ?

[Darkwaters]

I hope he is going to bring his hot wife. All of us upper level cool cats are going to be looking down to the lower level, and wondering who's that fox down there?

Hahahaha......shes a "standgebläse"

[Old School 44]

I'm probably in the minority here, but I'd actually take Bonner for the minimum at the end of the bench guy.

Actually I think most people support that idea at this point. The problem is that PF isn't much of a need considering we have 4 that are arguably starting quality. And claims that Bonner is a PF/C were mostly just to preserve Duncan's status as a "PF" the year that Bonner started all season.

Still Bonner is a great option - and most people realize that. But the Spurs probably only carry 14 players on the roster this season and they desperately need another wing. Theres just not space for Matt right now.

I agree. I'd like Bonner to remain on the team.

completely agree, exactly my thoughts

i think he will be in the rotation in the regular season at least

[tatteredprince]

I agree. I'd like Bonner to remain on the team.
