Will now have two tsip point guards on the roster, assuming Cory Joseph makes the team.

Joseph has a guaranteed contract. He was drafted in the first round.

Hope he can stay healthy. Should be a decent pick up. Hopefully he won't be too much of a liability on defense as well.

We need another shooting forward
Butler is apparently going to sign with the clippers

All these other teams are making their teams better
We are not

He's not a bad option to back up TP. If he's healthy he can be a tough guard. His ability to pass is something the spurs haven't had in a backup for a while. I have really tuned out since the lockout. I really don't have a clue what other options there were. If he ends up worth a damn, Manu and Neal can spend more time at their natural positions. But I could see him jacking up shot after shot, and pissing Pop off like you alluded too Diet.

TJ Ford doesn't shoot very much, he's not going to hurt the team. I'd rather them have a bunch of backup PGs and let the young guys Leonard and Neal get a lot of minutes at the 2 and 3. I'm way more worried about the big men.
