Woj: Vassell 5/$146M extension

[Seventyniner]

Theoretically Vassell should get more efficient on offense if the Spurs get another high end offensive threat, giving Vassell easier shots. But he might just have that Mamba mentality (in a bad way) instead.

Yes. What the Spurs need is a two way wing who is all-star quality and eons better than Champagnie. If they get that piece plus a decent PG who can score and set the table.. they are contending for the playoffs.

Vassell is more of an offball shooter than a shot creator. He's obviously working on creating his own shot and is already pretty good at it, but that will only improve with time and experience. Once this team has a real PG it will open up the game for him and give him easy buckets.

Tbh If We’re Praising Tre For Getting Wemby Easy Shots, We Should Be Questioning Why He Doesn’t Find Vassell As Easily.

I Honestly Think Part Of The Blame Goes To Vassell. He Doesn’t Run Around Without The Ball Nearly Enough And When He Does Get The Ball, He Prefers To Dribble And Do An ISO.

No Sherlock; the sky appears blue and water is wet! I’m still waiting on that answer clown.

[Atl Spur]

I wish everyone on here would help clear clowns like you off this board so we can talk spurs like the name suggest.

[SupremeGuy]

Tbh, stats in modern NBA are ridiculously inflated.
Lebron has almost identical averages and shooting splits to what he had 10 years ago and he's not even 30% of the player he used to be.

Eye test is the only thing that matters.

Weren't the offensive numbers ridiculous in the "hard 80s" as well? ing full circle or something. I dunno, been drinking all day. lulz ravens and lions choked on their own s

you still waiting for some meat for your booty Ms. Cleo? I don't get down like that, that's an ATL thing

Yup, he needs to be more active without the ball like RIP Hamilton was for Detroit. Cut down on those low percentage shots as well.

[spurraider21]

he's hitting 73% of his shots within 3 feet ... he's shown all season he can finish in close quarters with help defenders draped all over him. unless its chet stuffing his a couple of times

the problem is this only accounts for about 16% of his FGA. the uber efficient SG's like harden/manu get much closer to 25-30% of their FGA within 3 feet

he doesnt have the speed to get by the defender so easily. Might have to work on some dribble moves

[Pauleta14]

Spurs gave the biggest contract in franchise history to this average baller...

Yeah, he's clearly in love with his own jumpshot. That's good for a couple hundred mill apparently so no hate really, but I'm not sure if it's the kind of #2 option we want next to Wemby if a le is the prize rather than lots and lots of cash.

[Pauleta14]

+ a decade ago Vassel would have been qualified as "not Spurs compatible" bc of all his fundamentals limitations

Today he's obviously not Wemby compatible as a 2nd option with zero playmaking abilities...

Eh it is Aaron Gordon money.

[Pauleta14]

I'd rather have Aaron Gordon...

It's 4th guy on a contender money. It is not about Aaron Gordon. And no one liked Aaron Gordon before he joined DEN.

[Pauleta14]

What do u think of that ?

you dumbass that video is from the 2022 offseason

Devin's free throw rate is also pretty bad(career 16%) compared to Manu and Harden(routinely in the 40s and 50s). Also a result of his unwillingness to attack the basket. This team badly needs more guys that can draw free throws.

his career FT% is also right around 80%. he's currently below 80 for the season and was last year as well. 80 isnt bad, but if his calling card is shooting and shotmaking, gotta be a bit higher imo. leaving points on the table. missed one late yesterday in a 1 point loss...

[Pauleta14]

The date of the video doesn't matter to me, it speaks on what type of dude he is

You have to be insanely naive to think he's not pissed that he isn't THE guy in this team as he thought he'd be

you idiot still don't understand that he said this before we even got the draft pick to draft Wemby

You're the idiot missing the point and AGAIN going all emo
