Is it possible the Spurs have found the next Ginobili without using a draft pick?

    I have kept up with most of the Summer league games all the way to the championship game and Jonathon Simmons is a name I predict people will be hearing a lot very soon. Passes the eye test as far as what I think will translate to the NBA. freakish atheticism, does the eurostep often, makes the right pass. Signed to a 2 year deal as an undraftee, first year guaranteed. From Houston. Already 25, but has a crazy amount of offensive skills. Plays D too. I think he is going to surprise people.

    grew up with him...went to smiley HS and later UH. Was dumb for leaving UH early.

    I wont hold judgement until he does this in the regular season. summer league isnt a good indicator.

    I applaud your enthusiasm and I like this kid too (biased b/c he was a Coog), but summer league is not the greatest place to make a conclusion like this.

    If the Spurs signed him, he can play.

    LOL, I was about to get up on my high horse about absurd & ridiculous Spurs confirmation bias but, ladies & gentlemen,

    I rest my case.

    Nope. He is a product of the Spurs summer league system. :grin:

    agreed. Ginobili became Obi Wan Ginobody in the playoffs and in clutch moments.
