Pop is not impressed. 

By now, you probably all know that Marcus Williams has been waived, leaving Malik Hairston as the only remaining competitor in the battle to receive the final spot on the Spurs roster.  We wish Marcus well in his future endeavors, but it's time to talk about Malik Hairston. So this isn't his first time being on the official roster, but how much do we really know about Mr. Unguaranteed?  Follow us below the fold to learn a little more.

And then there were 15.

The Spurs have announced that Marcus Williams has been waived.  Considering Malik Hairston's play and the fact Marcus didn't play in the last couple preseason games, this isn't a surprise.

In a bizarre accident, three men and a basketball fell into a 10,000 gallon vat of toilet bowl cleaner near Orlando this week. However, Magic "star" Keith Bogans has generously signed his autograph on the ball as a gesture of good will.

Let's get to know him a little better, after the jump.

DJB: Is that a wine stain? RC: Well, Pop said he was just going to try it on for size...

So, last week, silverandblack_davis gave us an interesting look at the most enigmatic new Spur added this offseason - Marcus Haislip. Now it's time to find out more about PtR's choice for most exciting new addition to the Spurs: Mr. DeJuan Blair, whose nickname could be any one of 30 different things proposed on this site.

It’s the offseason. You are bored as hell.  Marcus Haislip, however, wants you to hear him out – that he’s not guilty. Guilty of what crime, you ask? Let’s investigate a bit after the jump.
