Most Likely Off Season Scenario?

[sfernald]

As long as we don't draft anyone white that is NOT from Europe, we're ok.

Guys like Reed Sheppard were created to break that stereotype.

[sfernald]

Seeing players like Champagnie, Branham, Wesley, Barlow or even Sochan talked about as if they had any kind of real place in a compe ive team around Wemby (not saying that's what posters believe but what Spurs seem to believe) and that they'll be anything else than role players/3rd stringers is really depressing...

When spurs actually did succesfully develop reclamation projects or rookies, that's was mostly one by one in contending teams, without pressure, and top players/veterans around. Not all at once in a messy, losing team. And all of them became role players, White as the only high end one, and Murray as the only borderline all star... Recently, they failed on Lonnie, Sammich, Primo and nor Blake or Malaki will become more than at best middle end role players.

You sometimes wonder if PATFO realize they don't have the big 3 anymore and this is the NBA we're talking about with good to great players in every team... This is a really compe ive league and they seem to beleive they canmake a diamond out of every kid they draft or outsmart everyone with their development program... That's not gonna happen.

what do you think about this potential starting lineup?

Tre / Lil Bronnie / Lebron James / Pascal Siakam / Wemby

Draft Lil Bronnie and let Lebron James and his agency do the rest.

[SouthernFryd]

I look at this team and wonder...who the F put these players together?

Then I look at who is going to put future players together on the Spurs...and they're the same people.

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." - Albert Einstein.

Doesn't take a genius like Albert here, to figure out what the Spurs future is.

I'm not a Spurs fan. I'm a basketball fan. And right now, I can't be both. Spurs are horrible from top to bottom. I hope Wemby moves.

Bronny isn’t even NBA level. He’s been overhyped because he’s LeBron’s son.

He should be able to at least do as well as Champagnie no?

[exstatic]

No. He’s going to be revealed as a failson.

Stay away. There literally are maybe 2 white players in the league, not from Europe that are good. Do not waste a a high pick for Reed.

White non-Europeans in the NBA that would immediately be one of our 5 best players:

Tyler Herro
Austin Reeves
Grayson Allen
Chet Holmgren
Alex Caruso
Donte DiVincenzo
Walker Kessler
Brooks Lopez
Max Strus
Gordon Hayward
Duncan Robinson
Kevin Huerter
Brandin Podziemski
Christian Braun

That's just off the top of my head.

[KobesAchilles]

Klay Thompson for 35 million

That’s a good memory!

[itzsoweezee]

Most likely: they double down and draft two more teenagers, neither of whom can shoot.

What they need to do: get a starting level point guard and a real backup center. Preserve those 2025 picks and use one of this year’s picks to make real upgrades

[buttsR4rebounding]

Draft a PG to develop and sign a PG so that we have 2 competent PGs available. Drafted PG should spend most of the year in Austin. Wesley would be 3rd string. Stop playing Branham at PG. Draft a SF to develop. Sign/trade for either a PF that can shoot 3s or a SF that can. If you sign a PF, move Sochan to the 3. Move Champs to the bench. He's much more suited to play with the 2nd team.

Now tell me how many of those players were a top 5 pick.

Probably not enough because they fell victim to the same silly stereotype you're advocating for.

[Dejounte]

We have some horribly racist posters on this site, it’s disgusting. Dude in another thread is still using the C word when it comes to asians. Pathetic.

[Dejounte]

Anyway, if it wasn’t obvious already, Vassell is here for a long time:

I’m not a big fan of his game but for all our sake I hope he improves.

Or, they are role players, and didn’t deserve it.

Wow unfortunately Harlem is still alive.

[The Truth #6]

Scenarios:

Trade their second round draft pick.

Don't get Toronto's pick.

We pick #6 and get Cody Williams.

Who currently is not on the team next year: Mamu and Bassey.

One of this replaced by Cody. The other for a cheap veteran.

Coaches: we see Patty brought back as an assistant.

Its been clear for month if you listen closely to what Pop says (especially in pre games interviews)

Same for Sochan and Tre. He considers all 3 as the core for the futur.

While the rest of NBA and fans think they should/will be gone…

65 games.
About freaking time he can make a simple lob to Wemby / simple pass to Wemby when he himself is covered.

Popped acting like it's some accomplishment.

Spurs seems weirdly attached to low floor, mid ceiling guys. Vassell is fine as it goes but seems like he’s checked out for like a week per month. He might give you 25 but theres also a good chance he gives you 8

It's a site where Splits drops the n-word and people still drop gay slurs. This is the world timvp created and doesn't care to clean up.

[Mr. Body]

Slowly, more users will realize a core of the team is already here. It takes too much to replace what we have and adding pieces is much better resource management anyway.

The draft will bring in a couple of players who will help, but not knock it out of the park. The team will try to add a couple of existing players to improve the rotation. A guy like Bassey isn't going anywhere.

Improvement will be incremental, but the curve will be better than the piss-and-moaners will expect, which will make them very, very mad, because they don't actually want this team to succeed, they just want to piss and moan. They weren't even happy when the team was winning championships.
