Why no thread to discuss Grades timvp?

we got to stop having keldon close out games.But im thinking this starting lineup should remain our starting lineup.
Wemby and castle seem to be flourishing with this lineup.

Suddenly Castle’s three is a threat. It seems like he makes enough too that they may not be flukes. Castle is looking more and more like the hands down best player in the draft

I have to give it to the Lakers when they’re healthy. AD is monster at the board and LeBron can still mix with the best of them. I would’ve love a W over the Lakers but they did well. I think their record of 6-7 is indicative of the Spurs. They’re almost there but still missing here and there. It’s a long season to address and still without Sochan and Tre.

The number takeaway for me is Castle especially that last shot down the stretch. The kid is fearless even against “arguably” the goatee. And his 8 FT attempts, the most in the team is mind boggling for a rookie against AD and LeBron in the paint period.

Wemby was a little taken back by AD’s dominance, who probably was on a mission after bad showings against Wemby previously. When Davis is scoring 40, it will be hard to slow down the Lakers. Just hoping they kept the others checked. Just keep penciling switches and bodying people up, and always try to keep the opponent score to just above 100.

The bench was a major letdown last night, with Blake being the worst of the bunch.

Spurs got some good young players already not named Wemby. If the rumor that you guys are tanking this year to keep your pick are true, not good for my Lakers.

Who are you guys targeting? International player we never heard of like Manu?

The Spurs team I saw last night is a playoff team.

PS - Wemby is an alien. SMH
