I would not be surprised if they take Carrington at 8 as the 'late riser no one expects so high because we're so so s-m-r-t!" surprise pick He physically looks just like Dejounte did in college body wise plus a big hairstyle On the other hand, if I remember right he has some good analytics to...

I wouldn’t do that trade if I’m the spurs

Sorry bro, you're just straight up wrong.

Dusty Garza is on Twitter saying the Spurs are targeting Zacc in a trade up with the Hawks and later on hints that Trae Young might be included in a mega deal. It would probably looks like this: Spurs get: Trae Young 1st pick Hawks get: Keldon Johnson

1800936391590723960 Clingan going in the top 3 would be so nice for us. Would pretty much guarantee us one of Risacher/Sheppard.

I think it's the other way around. The Spurs couldn't give Sochan away if they tried. He's a tweener forward who can't shoot, can't defend, and generally doesn't make any impact on the floor outside of scoring easy buckets off Wemby double and triple teams. If going from 8 to 5 guarantees me I...

True superstars raise both floor and ceiling. As in they're capable of carrying shit rosters to the playoffs, even winning a series here and there. Solid all-stars and fake superstars like Harden are floor raisers. They're capable of carrying shit rosters, looking good on legit rosters, but...

For me, the target at the end of the first is Tyler Smith or Filipowski.

That's a strange way to look at it. I see superstars as the pieces that make you championship contenders, hence "ceiling raisers". If you have a team full of good role players, you won't be a bad team, but you will never win it all. Hence "floor raisers". I guess one could see it as: "we...

Putler with the look that says "Shit, I am down wind and too close to poopy pants!"

The 3-5 day SMO is going so well that two years later a russian Deputy Defense Minister has been arrest for corruption https://x.com/DefenceHQ/status/1800921690832064877

What do we need the most on PF position? He's an elite shooter, can put the ball on the floor and score in mid range, good around the rim and a solid enough defender when he's got a rim protector next to him. Which part of 23/8 seven footer who's shooting 40% from 3pt on 8 attempts isn't a good...

So I'm sort of curious about Markkannen but doesn't seem to fit what we need most. And why isn't Utah better with him? Curious what I'm missing.

I can't understand a non shooting center in the first 5 picks much less 10. Edey seems like a way better value for dominant college centers who in the common parlance are known as "oafs".

When? :lol

Castle is still my pet cat in this draft, shooting concerns be damned. I think he's going to improve considerably in that department over time, and that's really the only thing keeping him from becoming a future All-Star caliber player. The two players he's most often compared to, Jimmy Butler and...

As I wrote yesterday: If we traded 4 FRPs for Markkanen, people would lose their shit. Spurs 7 FRPs before Wemby were Sochan, Wesley, Branham, Primo, Vassell, Samanic, Johnson. Ainge doesn't pick up the phone if we offer 5 that are still in the league for Markkanen. Teams that find balance...

i mean they had gafford, and then dealt him away, but wizards taking clingan would be a welcome development.

I dont really agree with that tbh…I think draft picks are the most important thing. But I do also think theres a time and place to trade for guys who you know you like and are good and proven. If SA gets a chance at that, they should be open to it.

Agreed. Draft whoever they think is the best choice with #4 and trade #8 in a package for an actual NBA player. If they don't like anyone available at #8, that is. Why would anyone want to move down with Brian Wright's draft record? We don't need more Branhams and Wesleys. How would we even...

I'd actually prefer to trade out for proven players that fill a need. Draft picks tend to be overvalued as a general rule.

Im 100% fine with moving back as well

Of course, they WANT their picks. So you are saying that the only place Atlanta would trade Young or Murray is San Antonio? Last year the widespread talk was that Atanta wanted 2 FRPs for DJM, but couldn't get that. I'm pretty sure that they were talking to more than San Antonio. So if they...

I'm almost as interested in moving into the back part of the first round. I realize there's a roster crunch, but most of those players are pretty marginal. Probably too much to take on three rookies. However, Knicks have 24 and 25. Other teams might want to dump slight bits of salary and...

We have no shooting and are picking up a player who can’t shoot.

If reports of Castle being a high character guy, hard worker and a great teammate are true, it's the obvious Spurs pick, especially after Sochan experiment last season. Just because Sochan wasn't capable of playing that role, it doesn't mean Pop has given up on it. Even if he doesn't develop into...

Ha, that's a hoot. He swore a death warrant on MBS for slicing and dicing that scum reporter, then had to go back over to the sand and beg MBS for that black gold. MBS told him to go pound salt, they fist bumped on the sidewalk out front and Biden came back to the states to $5 gallon gas.

Good news is in a draft like this, Spurs have so many 2nds alongside other sweeteners like CHA, CHI and swaps etc…that they should be able to move up if they want to
