Popular Post TheNorthCydeRises Posted November 26, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Key word is minimum. So he's gone until at least January 2017, if not longer, because it may take him a while to get back into basketball playing shape. May as well bring back Edy and try to cut our losses with Splitter. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hazer Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Damn shame, could've supplied Hawks with a great look off the bench behind D8. I give up on this cat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted November 26, 2016 Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 Pretty hard to swallow that all this physical deterioration landslided only after Tiago became one of us. Injuries here and there before the trade. As said more than once here, it is so Speedy like. Yeah Edy may be goofy but at least he will suit up when called upon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, we gotta keep him until at least the trade deadline because he has an expiring contract.

Spursfanpeacemaker Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Dang, I really feel sorry for Tiago. I still appreciate for what he did for the Spurs. His injury and surgery making it really hard for him to get back on the court, and i'm been waiting so long to see him play (Healthy) with the Hawks. I wish him the best. I think it's better to let him go and recover from his injury, then find a replacement backup big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
