DEJUAN BLAIR OFF TO A GOOD START

22 minutes, 16 points, 19 rebounds for the Pitt product in his NBA preseason debut last night. Me thinks the San Antonio Spurs got themselves quite the steal in the second round of the draft. Spurs fans think he's symbolic of a glorious mess in San Antonio, but as the Blog "48 Minutes of Hell" points out, the price was right:Statistically speaking, Blair put up numbers that pace themselves alongside Andris Biedrins, David Lee and Emeka Okafor. Those three players are slated to earn 9, 8, and 10.6 million this season. Blair will earn $850,000.Blair is slated to be third or fourth off the bench for the Spurs, which gives you an idea of how deep of a team they have. Personally, I can't wait to see how the big guy progresses as the season goes on. I only wish for selfish reasons that we could have watched him for two more years at Pitt.Email: Mondesishouse@gmail.com Twitter: twitter.com/mondesishouse Facebook: Facebook Group
