Spurs go down to Rockets in pre season

Penney scored 9points in just over 16minutes on 4-9 shooting from the field and 1-2 from 3pt land 3personal fouls and 2rebounds despite apparently looking fairly nervous.
Most blogs regarding the game coming out of San Antonio speak highly of Penney and many writers refer to him as having a Ginobli type style.

One Blogger posted this comment:

Speaking of, "Good for you," how about Kirk "1c" Penney? He wasn't incredibly flashy all the time, but he had his moments. LatinD suggested he looked very similarly to Manu. Oh the haters hated! Then 1c drove to the lane and the people who scoffed at the foreigner rescinded their comments. Penney shot 4-9 FG scoring 9 pts which included a three. David and I are strong supporters of the Copper Man. Maybe he'll earn a spot on the roster.


Lets hope he gets his shot

Doubt it, on hoopshype.com Pop refers to how the Spurs wont be utilising all 15 roster spots this season, as $$$ is an issue.

But perhaps some other team will be aamzed by his talents...

yeah Spurs have said they will be running a 13 or 14 man squad this season, Penneys points production against Houston was up there with Tony Parker tho, just gotta not turn the ball over and play solid D and it may happen.

I think he is a real shot. He was brought over for a reason, the Spurs are genuinely interested as they like high IQ players. Penney just has to keep performing as he can within the team structure.
