Spurs working out Bibby/Pietrus

Not sure about Pietrus although the Spurs corner the market on French players.
I do find it interesting that we have several point guards already but keep bringing in point guards to workout. Something between the lines?

Ya I don't understand it all and makes me think Parker isn't as well as he's been made to be.

Pietrus could be interesting though. He can hit the corner 3 and he can defend.

Bibby, as in Mike? Didn't he retire? He was done three years ago.

We had pietrus on the raptors for a bit. The dude is completely washed up now. He's pretty useless to be honest.

^^ I don't agree at all. When he was in Boston he loveeeeed to shoot, but it was great at times annoying at others. & He was playing on a bum knee & took a terrible fall his 2nd game with us which probably scared him lol.

I think you guys could definitely use another defensive wing. He was greatttttt in the 2012 playoffs on LBJ & Iggy. If he didn't shoot as many 3's & drove more, he'd be a great option for you guys.

Green/Leonard/Pietrus/Belli (underrated on d) definitely great options who can all let it fly.

Well, now we know why Pietrus didn't come here.....

I wouldn't have signed him to a guaranteed contract either.

Meh, I'd just sign Corey Maggette, since he used to be a serviceable player a few years ago. All he needs to do is provide a bit of offensive relief when CoJo/De Colo are playing and not kill the team on defense. I think Kawhi can handle 30 MPG.

Pietrus is looking at Europe if he's expecting guaranteed money.

Pietrus is utter trash, he couldn't even crack the rotation on the Raptors
