Fischer: "There's A Growing Belief Among League Personnel That San Antonio Will Target Starting C's

[K...]

when we drafted wemby we switched from "good picks are worth it because we need to find elite talent with multiple prospects" to " good picks are best spent getting an off the shelf superstar who wants out, or a young prospect available because of $$ concerns or dumb clubs.

If guys like duren , mark williams or halliburton were in the draft and we could get him, then we boofed. But odds are bufkin aint and lillard would blow him away in value even given the cost to acquire and salary needed. The delta between prospects like wesley and whatever was in the draft is not high enough to get bent about.

With no good bigs in the draft, and very few in FA i am prepared to be underwhelmed.

This is true enough. There are always one or two draftees who really surprise, but this draft seemed very top heavy and the dropoff after the first two tiers looked very significant IMO. It's difficult because so much more projection has to be made with the younger draftees today.

I wonder if we have something that could be put together to entice Vancouver into giving up Steven Adams.

What do yall think we would have to give up?

From Vancouver,I straight up want Big Country.

I think it was Utah.

Nope. OKC swapped 12 with Dallas to get 10, and they selected Cason at that spot.

I'm saying it was Utah that wanted to get to 11 to take Wallace.

So if it cost the same assets to get Allen as to get Lillard, are you pulling the trigger?

nope. Collins seems like a much better fit next to Wemby if you ask me

Good question…I mean the fit is pretty solid IMO. Guess you’d prefer a big with a little more range to help keep the paint unclogged but aside from that he’s a lot of what we’d want to pair with Victor. Plus we’d still have Zollins so that Victor gets some minutes with a stretch big out there with him. He’s also young and on a reasonable contract through 2026 ($20MM a year I believe).

Would have to really think about it but I feel like we could come up with a package that would entice Cleveland while still maintaining plenty of our future draft picks and young talent. Obviously depends on Cleveland’s asking price but I’m guessing it’s be quite a bit less than what Portland wants for Lillard.

All that being said, I highly doubt SA will make any big moves like that. Fun to imagine though

Nothing against Jarrett Allen, but I see no world he lands with the Spurs.

Reaves already signed, man.
