Rare inside look at how Devin acts around his friends
I'm thankful we aren't going after any more weird introverts
Seems like a good kid and would get along with anybody
Nice Vid D. Man he is starting to make me a believer probably going to get his Jersey for my own X-Mas present. Lol.
You know just for fun watching some old vids and one player that just jumped out at me was the Ice
Man - George Gervin they just have a lot of the same mannerisms not super athletic but very fluid they even both 6’7.
A weird introvert would usually do okay in a city like San Antonio. Turns out Kawhi is a major league asshole.Quote:

Seems to come from good stock....... we are trending in right direction!
10:50 - Guy starts screaming, "He's coming/going to Texas, baby!"Quote:

I don't even know what a weird introvert is for NBA standards. The only thing weird you can say about Duncan was he didn't like to go partying or clubbing but that's actually normal for introverts hence not weird.Quote:

A defensive backcourt with Derrick, Devin, and KJ will be stout af. I'm fucking sick of teams scoring 120 or 130 pts nightly. And I really can't stand the reffing nowadays. Everything is a foul and it ruins the game.
This guy is a high floor, ready to play, prospect. No reason to not have him on the rotation since day 1 of the regular season.
He's clearly NBA ready. It really bothers me that Luka just might not have it, whatever it is. Because it's clear as day Devin has it and that pop sees it...which means pop isn't seeing it from Luka.Quote:

Devin is gonna start over a few picks over the last couple of years. I think he could be in the top 3 as of now from our last 5 draft.
He better not get buried in the g league by pop lol
Seriously...such a breath of fresh air since Kawhi left...Spurs were so much starved of lengthy defensive guards..has lot better game sense than DJ
He looked good and we might have at worst another Danny Green and at best a special prospect.

The screen capture above is why I believe Devin is not too tall. He may be DeMar's exact height though.
But consider that it's not a perfect screen capture, it is possible for Devin to be taller than DeMar (but probably not by much)
Again, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter. NBA is positionless these days and Devin's strength comes down to off ball defense anyway, so his strengths will still be utilized.
I do feel it reinforces the idea that Keldon will be guarding the bigger wing if both of them are on the court together.
Will post more screen caps when there are ones available.
White 6’4 , Vassell 6’7, Keldon 6’6 / 6’7, DeMar 6’6, Lamarcus 6’11 is a pretty big line up. Keep your eye on Diop......we may have stole him!
Devin, KJ and White all appear to be hits over the past four drafts (five first rounders). Not bad for a team never drafting better than 11 (and usually late teens at best). If Walker and Luka are the big question marks, you’ve done okay. Walker is probably a 9th or 10th man at worst, and Luka is a lottery ticket. I still think Luka doesn’t amount to much, but nobody would be complaining if KJ and Luka picks were reversed.Quote:
