You thought it Jake to hunt Trump when he made President, Winester. Your regrets are your own. I've no sympathy for you.

Accurate.

We said the same last year...they were tanking, didn't play defense, with one more year of development + Wemby, they can catch the play in... They didn't win more. The last games of a season are always deceptive (tanking teams, load management, injuries, teams already focused on the POs)... and...

Knecht at 4 and Dillingham at 8 and I’m a happy guy.

I've studied over that headline since it lodged. And as usual it's deceptive. One isn't confidant whether it (the headline) is good for Trump, OR, good for Cohen. That fuckin' CNN don't miss a fuckin' trick, the fucks. I ain't read the article though & won't.

If they care about being competitive in the next 2 or 3 years maybe they will pick up a couple vets that can score.

From Mat Issa: It seems like Stephon Castle is pretty dead set on playing point guard in the NBA. Here is what he had to say when asked about how he would fit next to someone like Ja Morant: “They have a star point guard in Ja Morant. I feel like I can fit on to any kind of team. I feel...

The Hawks were supposed to win the lottery in 2025, 2026, and 2027 dammit. Not in 2024!

Point guard might be a stretch for Castle, he played more of a Draymond/Gordon role in their tourney run. He does not really playmake out of ball screens, more stationary and high lows. I am leaning toward a connector wing, maybe a combo if his shooting just takes off.

Did CNN get a massive payment from Orange Cult? https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/17/politics/michael-cohen-donald-trump-best-day-analysis/index.html

First team I have rooted for where I like the team and hate its fans. They have Arsenal on the brain syndrome. There was literally no cheering for the Spurs and plenty of seats available for Arsenal fans at Tottenham. The team was right on track for a goal to tie the game, outplaying MC, and...

Clingan going top 3 would be amazing for the Spurs regardless tbh.

If Washington determines he’s a PG, I think they’ll take him there. If they start to think of him as a wing, the outlook is more unclear. Could see them falling in love with Holland through the pre-draft process for example. I Love that this kid is a winner though. You see it in the UCONN...

So you have Topic dropping outside the top 8 in all your scenarios... Let's just say I think you're seriously underestimating him as a prospect.

creating permission for right wingers to kill people they disagree with is very popular in Texas

Castle probaly won't be there at #8, but Dillingham most likely would. Detroit, Hornets and Blazers all have offense oriented point guards with questionable defense. They'd maybe consider taking Castle, but those three franchises are all in a bad position, I don't think there's a big chance they...

What make you think that Dilly is more than Dennis Schroder with less court vision?

Houston just got crushed yesterday evening. Our friends from the Heights are coming to stay here as a tree fell on their house. 4 dead 1 million without power. Basically a hurricane from the northwest. Weather extremes continue seemingly during every part of the year now.

All I know is that this draft is going to be a lot of fun to watch, especially as a Spurs fan. Would love to see every teams big board, they're probably all over the place. Expecting trades, surprise picks, etc., and waiting through 5-7 will be brutal.

I think Salaun is the Bilal Culibaly if this draft with how he'll rise up and that we have to use #4 to get him

I was watching the long long Risacher video with makes and misses...and then the Salaun Highlights with only makes. I'm a simple man...I want Salaun...NOW!

Castle and Dillingham would be as close to perfect as it can get. But I doubt Dillingham (or Castle) will be there at 8, so I don’t see the Spurs being able to get both unless they trade up

Thanks Timvp. In your scenario, I’d take Buzelis at 4, 6’10 who can shoot and help defend. Then take any of Castle/Dilly/Reed or Topic at 8. One of them will be bound to be there, for Spurs starting PG of the future. Height and PG by the end of the day.

A 6'6 player with a great defensive reputation should be able to guard point guards, shooting guards, and small forwards. So if the Spurs go Castle at 4 then my guess is he will play all three spots and give them line up flexibility. But that also depends on if he can get a respectable NBA jump...

As long as they don't play Sochan at point guard then Victor will have this team competing for a play in spot, much like Houston did last year. All but 4 players on this team are bums but Victor is just so damn good he's going to drag them to plenty of W's they shouldn't get.

not so much when you have a much stronger draft class next season and there's also the FA or trade option

Mornin', v. Been waitin' on ya, son... (continued from above, by your's truly...) The wartime surge in trade, and growing purchases of oil, have sparked criticism in the West that China was helping to fund Russia’s war. Western governments and independent analysts also raised alarm that...

The Spurs were 6 of 10 the last 10 games, and some of them against teams trying to position themselves in the playoffs including the depending champions. The first 25 games they’ve starting Sochan at point guard, minute restrictions on Wemby, and DNP for b2b games. A stronger 2nd year Wemby with...

I would say the Warriors-Lebron era which was from the fall of 2014 to the summer of 2022 was my least favorite era of the NBA. No real rivalries during that time period. The playoffs for the most part was just Lebron and Warriors owning the league. With those 2 old and not having super teams we...

Maybe Salaun is not so crazy at 8 He moves better than Risacher, honestly. Like that high release on his shot. Going to be tough to block up there. His motor looks intense. Love the ball hawking with Salaun's 7'1 wingspan that leads to open court breaks. He would fit next to Wemby quite nicely...
