All the Suns are pu$$ies so why should Payne be any different.
Suns have been the Spurs’ for 30+ years now.

this. We don’t even have a real floor general right now.
Luka would indeed be a score, Xs 100 if he could be gotten as an unrestricted FA to be a Spurs in 26/27. But of course Cuban sure as H isn't going to let him walk. He'll be traded in 25-26 if the situation in Dallas blows. Problem most likely for Spurs is we won't have or want to trade a bunch of good players away to get Luka.
Trying to think of other bona fide legit top 10 players whom we could get to join Wemby. We don't want a pouting got who is going to force his way out.
Any top 10 players you can think of who are going to be available soon, and at the latest 3 years from now?
Curry i cannot see ever being anything other then a Golden got and surely his ref aided ass has got to begin slowly declining. Then again, he looks like he takes Lebron level steroids and also purportedly hooked up with Brady and got on his diet.
Heavenly if we can land another GNob or Parker and develop thru the draft.
He’ll be traded next summer if the situation in Dallas blows. He’ll force the issue.
Nothing wrong with Payne wanting to be with a contender than a team that just won 19 games.
Yeah but they traded him for a reason.
And no, I won't do the "Payne in the ass" joke.
Then he can man the up and play extremely well and then go where he wants. He is in a contract year.
To pine for being a Sun while currently on Spurs is weak.
I do think Payne played well vs the Bucks in Games 5,6 in what was the Sons best chance for a Chip.
Sons were married to giving Chrissy Paul all the playing time tho and predictable.....fail.
Welp, they waived Payne.
Zagars
He's supposed to go tu Turkey.
And we STILL need a Point Guard.
Just lose enough games this year and draft a top PG is the best case scenario for the future. One more tough year to get that young all star PG.
I think Wembanyama will hub the offense more than we'd expect.
Maybe not at first but once assimilated Victor could run a quarterback role
Plus him corralling offensive rebounds catching the defense broken down and kickouts to wide open threes second chance opportunities plus passing out of drawn doubles
His international stats are pretty low 2.4 ast in 34 games 2023 LNB. Bet he can get that up with Pops schemes.
Yep, I agree. Treat him like Jokic right now and run the offense through him. The more exposed he is, the faster it will come to him. He is ready. He is our #1.
I guess I just wonder if you had enough unconventional distribution could you get away with just seeing Tre Jones as PG with maybe Graham, Branham, and Wesley also spending mins at PG regardless of primary ballhandler duties in that lineup
Sochan explained in the interview he expects his playmaking role increase, not necessarily from the PG slot
To a much lesser degree you got bobo esque passing from Mamu and Sidy Cissoko.
And the aforementioned Wembanyama hub potentially something that may get tinkered with by the coaching staff.
Look at how that works for Jokic
Reducing his wear and tear, but still scoring and winning games. Joker is a really gifted passer though and you gotta be for that to work
works for jokic because he is strong enough to drive into contact and still finish. he can take the direct path to the basket through a guy rather than having to take wide, sweeping steps to get by somebody. hes a freakin bear who weighs nearly 300 pounds
rookie/skinny anthony davis is probably a closer analog for what to expect from rookie wemby than prime jokic.
Do you think Pop will be open to replacing Trey in the starting lineup sooner then 2027?
Spurs are gonna put the ball in Tre's hands and see what happens. They will not rush into some deal because fans panic. I've never been totally sold on Jones, but the little guy keeps on keeping on by improving his ga me/skill components so he gets a pass to start the season to see what he can do in the Wemby era.
That's a great point. It is more his agility for his size yet still with the finesse of finishing touch that keeps the defense honest which opens up the catch 22 of pass or drive.
Guess that is a more unique situation that might not be as easily emulated.
I don't really want Vic assuming the wear and tear of driving enough (or necessarily think it's in his skillset at this point unless he can abuse with his height/length) to establish the threat in order to open up passing lanes so my example wasn't the best there, good call.
Wembanyama doesn't really have the elite physique/passing attributes of joker forcing defenders to honor it thus pulling guys off assignments where jokers gifted passing activates or you don't sag off and give him a red carpet to the rim.
TBH, no one knew that Jokic had that level of passing when he entered the league. If it was even suspected, he would have gone in the lottery, not at#41.
Oh, and LOL @ Joker having elite physical attributes. He’s improved, but is still a doughboy.
