We ain’t winning anything next year. Just assess your talent and address needs next summer. Also, Osman won’t be making this team.

Let Osman showcase himself maybe get a draft pick for him
We have been over this. A French poster even posted the french interview from where it comes the quote this article used and it was never about not playing center (he literally hasn't played anything but center in his entire career), it was about a coach that "put him on a box" and didn't let him do the other things he can.
Sure, but that smoke never came from Wemby. A sentence like "if Wemby is dead set on not playing center" is just wrong.
No, I would say they are playing Wemby the wrong way. They tried to play Wemby like a 7'5" Allen Iverson in the first game of Summer League and I didn't say Wemby played center. I did say that they set him for failure, though.
He better be open to coming off the bench bc everybody else actually has a role/purpose for starting except KJ. You can sub him in at the 6 minute mark and let him jack up his inefficient shots.
Keldon does have a role in the SL next to Wemby as a guy that can spread the floor better than other potential starters like Sochan or Tre, tbh.
Tre is a point guard so he has nothing to do with KJ starting. And I believe Sochan will be able to hit the corner 3 at a high rate. His defense though would highly out weigh his offensive struggles and I believe he has potential to be unstoppable in the pic n roll with Wemby. Well I mean the combo of those 2 would be unstoppable.
Sure, there's a case for any of those guys, tbh. I'm just saying Keldon does have a case for being a starter too.
If KJ is coming off the bench, then the most likely lineup is Branham , Devin, Sochan, Wemby and Zach. Tre and Sochan won't start next to each other. Pop is already done with that pairing last season.
That's what's funny, the common theme being the Spurs would only have ONE starting lineup. So do we need to cut 3 our otherwise offload 3 players still? My simple cave man Googling showed us having to get down to 15 players and only being able to have another 2 on 2-way deals. (Smith/Barlow).
They have 3 excess NBA contracts, so they will Ned to make a consolidation trade or cut 3 players. They have only 2 of 3 two way spots filled, and can sign another if they want. The third spot is new this year with the new CBA that went into effect 1 July.
Thanks. I hereby nominate you to start a 2023-4 Spurs Roster Numbers thread. I can’t believe that information is scattered over numerous related threads or is it just more fun that way?

Except the long bench needs to include Bassey and Cissoko which means two of the players you included there will be waived or traded. One thing that also seems clear is it won’t be Branham.
I don’t recall being this excited about our players 6-10 and 11-15 though!
Are you waiving Charles Bassey?
Ya. I don't see a spot for him. Maybe over Branham?
I edited the 15 man roster in my post.
He just signed a bargain 3 year deal in February, and is a far better roster fit than Osman
And some people here re ok to trading him for a glorified fidget spinner
