Signing him to a 10 day contract?
Seems like that's what is happening.
Signing him to a 10 day contract?
Was it Sanders or Ford that was impressive in the offseason? I can't remember.![]()
Yes, he was at practice and it appears that's the plan.
Sanders is the 6'4-6'5 swingman who is a good defender. Ford is a slight power forward.
Also I belive Ford is with the Suns organization now, unless they cut him.
Isn't Ford with Phoenix?
They cut him. He plays in the DLeague for Fayetteville.
But they aren't picking up Ford (he's a PF). They are picking up Sanders.
I wondered why he didn't play toinght.
Why do the Spurs keep wasting time with Sanders? He's not an NBA player. He's not big enough or athletic enough to play on this level.
He's a decent energy player but I think Holt should just save his money.

I'm pretty sure that I saw Melvin at the last HOME game (so before Manu got injured). So I'm guessing he was already under consideration to be re-signed.
Sanders blows. He's too small and too raw. I can't understand what Pop sees in Sanders. I was hoping that they could sign someone with a little more potential to a ten-day contract. Sanders is a waste of a roster spot right now.
Hopefully they don't have to use him.
Bowen/Barry/Finley will get the bulk of the minutes at the swingspots, plus they'll use the NVE and TP in the backcourt at the same time on occasion.
Sanders is just a 10-day signing of someone who knows the system who can be a practice player. I don't think they are looking for potential - just 10-day filler.
That's right.
Btw who you'd rather seen in the spurs uniform?
They know Sanders and now they need him![]()

Who would I rather see?
Theron Smith, Glenn Robinson.
Where's he been since we cut him?
on an unrelated note....
hey kori whats new with noel felix lately?
Are you being sarcastic? Because just a few months ago, you really liked this guy and thought Holt was cheap for not signing him.
Not to answer a question intended for someone else, but I don't recall timvp ever being high on Sanders. He is good defensively, but he is probably to short to ever become a great defender against most 2/3's and not quick enough to defend 1's. Offensively, I think's it's best we don't discuss thatAre you being sarcastic? Because just a few months ago, you really liked this guy and thought Holt was cheap for not signing him.![]()

Sanders is a good choice since Manu isn't out for too long, he knows the system.
Even if a guy like Theron Smith is maybe better, I think he won't be as effective for 10 days as Sanders.
Welcome back Melvin.
He's doing good. He was on the All-Star team and played really well. People were telling him as the game ended that he would get MVP. But they ended up giving it to someone on the LOSING team instead
He's averaging something like 14 and 7 and second in the league in blocks while playing awesome D. Over the last few games, he's averaging about 21 and 11.
He was no where for a long time (just hanging out) but spent the last five or six games in the DLeague.
