Didn’t the Spurs have a crush on Dalano Banton for a hot second? Batum makes a lot of sense at wing until the spurs find better SF talent via these upcoming drafts. Also a ZR fall back plan. Is Bey a reclamation project? Don’t know enough about him.

Best for me for a while has been taking our player at 4 and trading up to 6, as you say. At this point that's Castle and then preference. But at this point I don't think Dillingham is on the Spurs radar so I don't really know if it's necessary. I think Reed will either be gone or a Spurs preference...

That's G League MVP Ousmane Dieng, sir.

Hornet fans seem to see their top 3 as Castle, Reed, and Holland. Clingan has some fans but there is a big debate about Mark Williams. I bet they could be sold on trading back with the Spurs at 8 if Holland is the only one left from that list. Obviously Spurs would have make good on their...

Castle very clearly has a mechanics issue with his shot. He shoots it from above his head, instead of shooting from his eyes. That's good, though. It is the same mechanichs fix that Kawhi needed, hopefully the Spurs can work their magic again. Fixing a mechanichs problem is easier than fixing a...

Dillingham, Devin Carter or Jarred McCain will be available at 8. Want a high upside project? Fine, trade back and pick up one of them plus Pacome Dadiet, Cam Christie, There's plenty of prospects with higher upside than Salaun. Bottom line is, you don't use a top 10 pick on a long term project...

He's better than Ousmane Dieng???!!! Damn, that's impressive stuff. Bring him on.

The comp to Dejounte is interesting, defensively, operating in mid-range, doing multiple things, two-way player. But again I almost gave up on Dejounte always getting stripped in traffic, which is unlikely happening with Castle’s better finishing in traffic. Murray avoids contact, while Castle...

It kind of already started, if you can read between the lines.

On a team where half the roster is easily replaceable, it'd be really frustrating to draft a guy who isn't ready to play even some spot minutes.

If Salaun was Italian or from Africa he'd not be getting this attention. It's the Wemby effect. This is the second year in a row that Wemby is getting a French project to go in the first half of the lottery who wouldn't have pulled the attention otherwise.

:lmao:lmao

Even when teams have all the best data on players, they still manage to screw up and draft a dud. It happens almost every draft. The spurs have drafted stretches and duds. I don't think we'll be in this position again, drafting two top 10 picks in one draft. Hopefully they don't reach or draft...

A guard who's main offense is driving to the basket...that has bad knees? Uh...this is a no-brainer.

Topic definitely has the best touch around the rim, but ABA league isn't much better than NCAA. Without reliable mid-range pull up, he wouldn't be a threat in the NBA. The only way I could see Topic being picked is with that NOLA #21 they're rumored to trade for second rounders. Move up a bit...

I do have to admit this has merit, though. Mental blockage can be harder than overcome than anything else, and his reluctance to shoot early on is what drove me away from him. I eventually embraced the idea of taking him due to his performances and especially his measures (dude is almost the same...

Here is a list of the known workouts by the Wizards: https://x.com/GregFinberg/status/1802010717236732156

Salaun looks like a project that I would expect a player like him to be taken in the 20s at best. Just my opinion.

If they're really not into Dillingham, I might take Salaun over Williams. I probably take Carter first. It gets a little dodgy. I was looking at production vs. Ousmane Dieng, who intrigued many of us two years ago. Salaun was better in a better league. ...

I agree, this'll never be over, Homer. Ever. It's our religion. Trump did that by making President. Trump did that.

LeBowen posted these numbers in the Reed Sheppard thread: Shots at the Rim for each Collier 154 (in 27 games) Castle 149 (34 games) Topic 121 (in 12 games) Dillingham 113 (in 34 games) Sheppard 60 (in 33 games)

Saddling Biden's boy with a FELONY conviction after he had a writ to walk free & clear bears that out, Winester. You know who did that, son? Trump did that.

As long as it's not Topic or Ignite duo I'll stomatch the pick. He's got the size and he can shoot, I guess that's a start. But he'd probably be useless for a year or even two.

We used your template for doing that after Trump had made President. Day One? You threatened to blow up the White House as Trump, his wife and their only child boogied on in over there.

I’m okay with him at 8th. His potential is intriguing. If the kid grows to 6’11” he’ll be a massive help. I don’t mind a big swing at 8th if the Spurs believe on this kid.

Nope, not there, nor with the Jews and Ham. Biden did that.

And when the Spurs get shooters the fan base gets full on mad.

He can't be, because the issue isn't his shot mechanics as it was for Fultz. Imo THAT that might be the most challenging area to fix in a player, if not almost impossible. I think Castle simply has a confidence issue. I don't see why it couldn't be fixed, especially in a team that relies on a...

The ideal scenario is for Matas to fall to 8, which Chicago is said to like. The spurs trade back, pick up another asset, and select TJ (or Cody) at 11. This, after taking Castle at 4.
