Dude willed himself to the Spurs. Can't believe this ish. Amazing.

From the days where one championship felt impossible to winning five championships and then being blessed with a third all-time great prospect a few years later. WTF.

Also Boulogne-Levallois Metropolitans is no Paris Basket Racing but it’ll do.

What's the chance of winning all three lotteries? It was like .20 x .14 x .14 or something like that.

Have ton of cap space, potentially six first rounders total in 2024 and 2025, and the young talent on the roster. Not bad.

Honestly, the Spurs couldn't be in a better position now. Landing a Top 5 prospect in the history of basketball, maybe higher, owning the Atlanta fucking Hawks draft, a probably extra lottery pick from Toronto, myriads of seconds and ALL of their own assets plus some really nice youth covering a multitude of spectrums in Sochan, Vassell, Johnson, Jones, Branham, Collins... this is fucking wild.

We had a third one but then he started being a big ole pussy and missing games over getting a papercut or an ouchie on his leg and he forced his way out and eventually to LA and he's still the same ole pussy he has been since.

Wemby is the 4th generational talent the Spurs have had

0.392 %, or 1 in 3,920 chance.

But hey, Keith Van Horn would have been nice. He was better at teh threeeeeeeeeez than Duncan.

I bought a new Duncan jersey when the Spurs came to play in Austin. Never been worn, tags on and everything.

I put it on for the first time just before the draft yesterday.

Looks like I have a new lucky jersey

I was excited to watch the young core next year regardless, now I can't fucking. Plenty of young pieces to build around.

Also, I know San Antonio never has really been a huge free agent destination even with Timmy....but having a guy like Victor can't hurt in that regard, right? If the Spurs start building something here, might get some more people eyeing SA.
