With yalls logic every player could be a pg lol

You need to have the skillset first in order to work on refining them.

Champ better be a rotation guy on opening night. That stroke is all kinds of legit.

What's weird is that the Spurs have been loading up on SFs this summer. Osman and Bullock are better than replacement level but them, along with guys like McDermott and maybe Keldon (on top of Champagnie of course), make that position very crowded.

[onechance87]

Champ's got 10/5/3 on 4 shots.

yea...he made a three as i typed that...hope he keeps it up....this team needs offence

[heyheymymy]

Yikes Blake and Bran tonight

oof

[lefty20]

jfc Bran needs to sacrifice a goat of something.

[SpursFan86]

Beating a dead horse but Branham has been shockingly bad once again. He's legitimately three lucky bounces away from being 0 for his last 25 shots Unreal for a guy whose bread and butter is scoring in a variety of ways.

[Obstructed_View]

Mal got the yips fer sho.

[emanueldavidginobili]

Dejounte was bad at this early in his career too.

I think Wesley has only a puncher's chance (maybe 20%) of actually becoming what the Spurs want him to be. Far too early to cut bait on him, but if he ends up being a bust it's not a catastrophe.

While I agree to an extent, Dejounte also showed glaring defensive potential. Kid was on the all defensive second team at 21 years old and in his second year, practically first year playing. He showed elite potential defensively in summer league.

[Obstructed_View]

Bilal should have gotten continuation.

[Obstructed_View]

Yay Mal.

[lefty20]

Good ending by Bran at least.

Proceeds to make two tough shots that actually looked like they should've gone in...there we go

[Obstructed_View]

And yay mal again.

[heyheymymy]

Bran can go in the tunnel with a little confidence boost after that one

[slick'81]

Good first half for my boy dom dom

[BatManu20]

Two really tough shots in a row by Branham and he knocks ‘em both down. Noice.

[ace3g]

Branham, see if that gets him going in the 2nd half.

Listening to this one announcer trying to extort Doris Burke for a bet she never actually agreed to is... awkward.

[TekXX]

Lord these NBAtv announcers are cringey.

[Russ]

Kareem Abdul-Barlow.

[Obstructed_View]

Yeah that over bet not looking spectacular.

[TekXX]

That's not doris burke.

Don't think that's Doris.

[Seventyniner]

I hate to put it this way, but Branham is starting to look like an empty calories scorer who gives up at least as much on the other end.

I sure hope this doesn't end up being the case.

[DPG21920]

Branham with some much needed confidence boosters lol. IF that shot isn’t falling, like to see him driving. Hes great at floaters so try and mix it up a bit more and do some other things; rebound, create a bit for others, get that floater off. Good end for him.

Champagnie looking like he has all SL which is great. Type of bounce back you love to see after a down game.

Barlow doing Barlow things and being efficient and much better attention to detail tonight and in good spots vs getting bodied and pushed out of stuff.

Sidy showing that playmaking chops but back to rough shooting.

Blake needs to clean up those TO man
