    Draft Express excerpt: Speaking of Michigan State upperclassmen, Bryn Forbes measured 6'3 with a 190-pound frame and a 6'5 wingspan. He lacks a degree of size and length for a shooting guard, but led the PIT in per-minute scoring doing what he does best, shooting the 3 (4.3 makes over 10 attempts per game, 43% 3P%). Few players in the country have been as deadly from the perimeter as Forbes in recent seasons, and though he has limited experience running an offense, it will be interesting to see how teams value his sensational shooting ability (48% 3P% as a senior) in the draft process given the direction the league is headed.
    If he can be the new "taller" Patty, a smallish shooting guard off the bench that would be great. (Yeah, Patty's technically a point, but Manu and others often initiate the offense).

    I haven't seen this dude play but if your analysis is on point I'd instantly move Patty to another team. Last year of Patty's contract anyways and it's gamble to make us a tad bit more compe ive.

    We're looking long term. 1) Patty's contract is up after next season. 2) His shot really has never been the same since the shoulder surgery.

    3) The FO is trying to get rid of all of Manu's friends on the team so he finally retires.

    He shot amazing in the Clippers series. After his shoulder injury. I don't understand Bill.

    An outlier as I recall. But I could be wrong. Even so, his contract in this market next year will go way up. Good for the team to have options. Forbes might be an option.

    Every time I see him the more flip-flopping I do. On the one hand, he can hit a three, and get to a spot.I see some push-offs from the sets though, and I don't know if this means he's too slow to get away from a college kid or what. His windup is very exaggerated, and although he's systematic in his jumper, man, he loads it and then it seems to take awhile to get to the peak. I wonder what effect the perimeter defense will have on him as they are longer? That pause at the top reminds me of gary, he's just not as quick, hopefully he can continue his shooting. Spurs need some reliability in that department.

    He also shot a .58TS% the next playoffs. He shoots the ball at an incredible clip Bill.

    Proud member.

    His size is a worry but that shot is pretty. The floater and handles are a bonus. His defense isn't bad. I see no reason he couldn't develop and flourish in the Spurs system.

    Yep. I believe this is Patty's final year as a Spur. If Forbes shows he can contribute right away, I wouldn't be surprised to see Patty traded at the deadline.

    Your fan boy logic is clouding ya. If the spurs get 80% of what mills brings for half the price (referring to mills market value not current contract, let's say he gets cojo $$$), then they have to let mills go.


    Oh wait, I'm sorry, the kid is already a better defender than Mr mills.

    LET'S GOOOOOOOOO. This thread has more optimism than the first thread I like it. Get some pics going here. What about the Benjamin with Danny's face? Put one with Forbes face.

    I could see them trading Mills to keep Boban, if he gets an offer they want to match. I think Forbes could come a lot closer to giving Mills' production than anyone you pay the minimum to would for Boban. Especially in light of our dearth of bigs right now.
