    He's another defensive/non-shooting 4 like Vando.

    I’d waive Maxi in a heartbeat. DK is still on the books for another year.

    no. the spurs tried pretty hard to make him useful. popovich even spent the better part of a year trying to turn him into a pg. he's had way more opportunities than bufkin during a similar period of time.

    that said, i thought about him as a buy-low project this summer. but as sk said, we already have vando. you can't have two vandos. you can barely have one (and i'm a vando fan).
