    I love you guys! Lol. Can’t get enough Crow can you? The most successful current NBA orgs all stem from the pop tree but yet and still it’s a debate regarding Patfo competency! LMFAO
    Yup— just look at the top 3 teams in the each conference. All minus CHI have a straight head coach or GM line to Pop’s coaching tree.

    That’s not adding emerging clubs like Charlotte or even OKC whose on a 5 year plan.

    Probably should have better communicated to any of those that they were being groomed for the next era of Spurs management before letting them walk. Becky probably hasn’t solidified the coaching role post Pop because she disagrees with him 60% of the time, a cardinal sin;

    “Becky I only hired you because you are a woman who likes women and we need diversity in this league plus I’m a woke but your le is just a figurehead, Bryn Forbes, Matt Bonner even Drew Eubanks are actually all ahead of you in terms of succession.”

    If you think they don’t have a plan cool but I doubt it.

    This is a tight lipped organization, I get it. Given what is now 4-5 years of mishaps and questionable decision making I suspect there is more friction going on behind closed doors. This isn’t just Kawhi’s fault. Maybe Brian Wright is quite capable just doesn’t really have the green light to make his own decisions. Maybe he has full discretion and actually is a
    terrible GM. We will never know.

    We do know half of the NBA would never consider playing for the Spurs unless they are paid 25% more and it’s not just the city; San Antonio is an okay place to be. Brian Wright might be the Eubanks/Forbes/Bonner of general management; punching out of his weight class because he works hard and checks many other boxes.

    Sir, do you honestly think Pop and Rc don’t have input into these moves & direction of the organization? Wise up......

    Part of the argument is maybe they have too much.

    What is wrong with having a view? If Pop told you to drink bleech would you do it blindly? I mean he is a pretty smart, successful and acclaimed individual; historically anyways.

    There are certain ppl in life I will never once question. Coach Pop is not one of them. He has made many mistakes and
    often out-coached himself. He has also done some genius/incredible things and earned the ability to go out on his own terms as his wins were far greater… with that preface, I can not out of blind faith, especially given the last 5 years of sus decision making not question PATFO if atleast for the sake for constructive criticism.

    I haven't loved either trade today, but at least the Spurs have a strong presence in the draft right now.

    Props to him, he's been ruthless and looking at the roster he's a long way from being done. It projects to be a busy draft night and summer.

    Tearing a roster down for future assets is way easier than building an actual winning team, though.

    i won't rush to judgement on today's trades. calling them bad or good before seeing what becomes of these picks is premature, imo.

    It sure feels like Wright is working with more autonomy now. Can’t see RC doing all these moves.

    I'd give it an A- just because he didn't get to move Poeltl.

    I’m sad about Derrick, but I think it was a very solid trade deadline.

    Now let’s hope TOR drops to a play-in team, and BOS gets overtaken by Nets, Charlottes, Atlanta and everyone else in the standings!

    I'll rush to judgement and say this was a phenomenal job. Before the day started we were a tanking team. After the day ended we were a tanking team with 3 additional 1st round pick AND a pick swap so far into the future it might legit be a top lottery pick and all we gave up was one useful player who in the end turned out to not be part of our rebuild anyway.

    You can't get chickens without eggs, and today we got way more eggs than any of us could have thought.
