Trust that the guard whisperer will fix CB!

I think we'll get our first indication within the next 48 hours. Lindy and Bismack deals get fully guaranteed on Jan 7. Whether or not they are still on the roster on the 8th might tell us something about Brian's plans.

If this was done, would it be after the Lakers game or before the Lakers game that they would do it? I assume the Spurs will need players on the roster for the next two games.

If I understand correctly, they must be released by EOD today... but the language is a little confusing:

This is from Spotrac's article:

It’s a busy transaction period in the NBA for the next month. On Monday, January 5, teams can begin signing players to 10 Day contracts. With nearly half of the league having an open roster spot, we put together a list of callup candidates to watch.

The NBA trade deadline is on Thursday, February 5. We’ll have plenty of deadline-related content coming for you over the next month.

Later this week, another important deadline lands on the NBA calendar. On Saturday, January 10, all NBA contract become fully guaranteed…kind of. In reality, these deals will fully guarantee on Wednesday, January 7. This is because players have to clear waivers before January 10. In order for players to have their 48 hours on waivers, they have to be waived by January 7.

Got all that? Good! Now, we’re going to go through each of the 30 players who have a guarantee-decision to be made and give a projection on what we think is going to happen.

A couple of notes:

• We aren’t covering two-way players here. They also become fully guaranteed if not waived on January 7. But since there are no cap/tax/apron impacts, teams aren’t shy about waiving guaranteed two-way players after the guarantee date.
• The salary listed is how much the player will become fully guaranteed for, if not waived on January 7.

I highlighted two parts here... one says "by Jan 7" and the other says "On Jan 7"... so... who knows. You'll see when you start seeing dudes getting waived.

I wonder how long he's been training with him (if he just started this season)?

OK, cool. I guess we will find out soon enough. I'm guessing it has to be on January 7th.

his stroke is perfectly fine, nothing to fix there

 

[Ice009]

I think he means, fix his overall game. I don't think SP9 was only talking about shooting. His form looks fine, but he needs refinements in the rest of his game on offense and hopefully TGW can help get him there.

The exact rule is that the player must clear waivers before January 10th.

If player is cut on January 7th before 4pm CT, he will clear waivers on January 9th 4pm CT and so his contract won't be guaranteed.

 

[rjv]

has number of blown dunks by bryant become a prop bet yet?

Is 5p ET on the 9th the end of the league day that players need to be cleared by in order to have cleared waivers "before January 10th"? Or is it 11:59:59 on Jan 9?

Players clear waivers only 1 time per day (at 5pm ET) and they must stay at least 48 hours on waivers.

For example, if a player is waived on January 7th at 6 pm ET, he will clear waivers on January 10th 5pm ET.

you dont get points for strokes

Excellent explanation that answers it, thank you. So all these guys need to be waived by tomorrow 5p ET.

Golf and other uh... pastimes... would disagree.

Why castle still can't shoot

[spurraider21]

it makes sense. he needs a lot of reps and experience. he only played 1 year of college was playing less than 20mpg there. he always seems to want to do the right thing but is just unable to execute it. reps will go a long way

 

[eric365]

Good thing for CB.

And it gives playing time for Sochan for his last chance / upping his value before a trade

 

[Mugen]

Im assuming Sochan is going to get those 4-6 minutes that CB has been getting in the 2nd quarter. We won't have to worry about missed dunks when Jeremy just loses the ball on the way up tbh.

 

[rjv]

maybe he can learn to work on his dunk.

 

[BatManu20]

Great news tbh. Kid needs the burn and I'm confident in our Austin staff to help develop guys over there. CB will be better off for it tbh, even if it's short-lived. Sochan playing well the past couple games directly influenced this decision imo.

 

[tearsofmorningdew]

hopefully this signals an attitude adjustment in sochan & an increased role for him. CB needs the development

 

[Rafa]

Would be good with him staying there as long as it takes. He honestly sometimes looks like he doesn’t even belong in D1 ball and is purely surviving on physique hype.

I have legitimate fears that he’s just Straight up not gonna be an NBA player, and hoping he gets the opportunity to prove me wrong down there

Busts happen. Because we’ve had success in draft picks in the past, we’re spoiled to thinking every one of them will turn out to be the next Kawhi Leonard. But for every Kawhi Leonard, there are ten Lonnie Walkers and we should adjust expectations and call a spade a spade sometimes. Not saying at all that CB is a bust right now - but the odds are stacked against him based on what he’s been able to show so far.

I don't think it's too far fetched to expect Bryant to become the next Danny Green.
He's got even better physical attributes and has just turned 20.
Danny broke into the rotation at 24.

Maybe not a 40% shooter, but I'd take 36% from 3pt on 4 attempts with great defense and rebounding.
Doesn't have to anything else...other than not miss dunks.
Hopefully we get him up to speed within a year or two.

 

[Robz4000]

Still think CB becomes a rotational player down the road at least, but not sure he'll end up becoming the 4 we need tbh.
