This guy and his contract are gonna be the reason Wemby leaves..
In fairness to Collins, many times the combination of Wemby at C and Sochan at PF has displayed plenty awful rim protection, once they lure Wemby out of the paint or use the rim to do a quick reverse layup or similar tactics to evade our one reliable shot blocker.
I’ll add that watching Collins try and defend the LeBron + AD two man game was especially brutal, though.
This guy and his contract are gonna be the reason Wemby leaves..
His only value at this point is using him to match salary in a trade. Otherwise, he is indeed a costly mistake that somewhat limits our options in FA, but who knows if that actually matters since FA classes are all garbage these days anyway.
Lol, no. On the contrary it’s more likely to be used for marching purposes in a Trae trade. Look at our salaries: we really don’t have many other ways to get to number we need for such a trade (assuming they’re still in love with Vassell).
If they take the Collins contract back we will have to throw in an extra first!
Perspective.
The fact this is the list of bad contracts the Spurs have had only shows how great we’ve had it as a fanbase.
Collins looked pretty bad but still got 17-8. If he could get his head out he could fool a trade partner into thinking he’s a serviceable backup big.
That may be the strategy. Polish the turd in preparation for the off season.

17 points on 17 attempts is not ideal.
The Venn diagram of posters stressing about Zack’s contract and posters who don’t care that trading for Trae means two contracts totaling $120M afterWemby’s DPE kicks in is a circle.
I saw he made a few three pointers last night in the highlights. He's three point percentage most likely skyrocketed.
Why?
I don't get people ing about Collins' contract. Next season he becomes a 17.5 mill expiring to make salaries match on a trade. Why yall sweating over it?
No, because Collins would be an expiring contract. Those are valuable on themselves for teams that want to open up cap space.
?? he's fully guaranteed in 2025-26
Nah it's season after next that he becomes an expiring. Next season is the first year of his two year extension.
Doubtful. They could never move Collins on his own but if it's to match salary in a major trade it's not a big deal.
Im not been worried about his contract once has been clear that this season was a tanking one...Collins has very good tecnique but not the best athleticism (also because of past injuries) so he has to play with effort and energy for becoming useful in a big man role. There is no motivation in playing your best effort orv a risky energy game if you know from the beginning that winning games is not the priority....Frankly I think he played hard for the contract he received and can reply that standard once the team goal will be winning again as many games as possible...the only thing he has to improve is his 3 point percentage because was considered his main offensive skill...but also that is probably just a psicologiocal gthing, because his shooting tecnique looks good...
you probably lost some of them at "Venn diagram".
Damn, I'm rusty in all off court stuff.
The contract is bad then, still not awful. This is probably colateral damage from projecting Wemby as anything other than center, smh.![]()
Think it was just a case of Collins playing hard in a contract year. Got fooled by the 37% three point shooting last year.
hes not expiring next season
his contract runs through the 25-26 season
edit: didnt see the following posts
Damn, Collin not only fooled spurs management and pop but half our fans too apparently.
He’s made 10 of his last 13 threes
He’ll be fine or be part of a trade! No biggie…
