Maker or Prince
I just don't see thon maker falling to 29. Some team is going to pick him up before pick 29 due to his potential, regardless of whether it materializes. Young athletic 7 footers with 3 point shooting range don't grow on trees.
Unfortunately, you are right, after Giannis, any player with that kind of bizarre potential will be chosen before the 20Quote:

I'd like to see him in a spurs jersey, dude is the next chris paul
Some Euro guy they can stash for two years then have Popped chain him to the bench.
Dude is 5'8" no thanks! Westbrook would have a field day on him. And steph would get any shot over him.Quote:

Whoever is available ....
Either Thon Maker or that C from Louisville.
The Spurs need to draft Dejounte Murray of Washington.

Height: 6-5
Weight: 170 lbs
Date of Birth: 09/19/1996
School: Washington

NBADraft.net gives him a 94. The only categories below 8 are strength (he's 19 & will get stronger), leadership (he's 19), NBA ready (he's 19) and jump shot (Chip can fix).
In other words all of his weaknesses will go away.
He has the potential to play great D, he can get to the rack (moves are incredible), he can pass like Manu and he's athletic as hell. (See the videos on NBADraft.net for some ungodly fakes.)
He's the prototypical "new" NBA guard that all great teams must now have.
Need to move up to about 14-15 to do it -- just like they did with Kawhi.
Then bring over Bertans.
Malcolm Brogdon for his play and for his off-the-charts leadership skill, which Spurs will really need in a post-Tim, post-Manu world. He was terrific at the combine.
No way Thon Maker falls to 29.
Think Spurs will take a big, not sure which fits.
Remember Luwawu from last years draft, he would be a good prospect but projected as a lotto pick.
Murray looks great! 6'5 with handles and passing ability. His shot is weird and he is skinny. Both those things can be fixed. FYI, draftexpress has him going at #32 in the draft. Looking at his age and physical tools I'd imagine he'll get hyped up and go above the Spurs like Thon Maker will inevitably.Quote:

I know! Draft a guy who plays the same position as the guy you took earlier in the draft on the wing (yes, Butler is a SG and Leonard a SF but similar enough) especially when you already have Manu and Dick (plus Green and Neal) manning the wings after having just traded your backup PG.Quote:

I'd take a chance on Ulis if he drops. If he was 6'2 he'd be a top 3 pick. Guy has the skills and he's a winner. He's small but worth a shot at that point in the draft.
Spurs need a massive upgrade in backcourt quickness asap. After 10 mins of research, I like this cat.http://youtu.be/mErOC3LMhaM
