    If we’re going to take a wild upside swing I’d rather go for Bub, who has shown some serious skills and just needs to become more efficient

    More like, he's average at most things right now but dude has a longer reach than Anthony Davis, plays good defense, has a stroke that makes you think he'll be solid, and has a unceasing motor so let's take him at #8 to see what we can do with him in 3 years

    I'm not sure he average at anything except his shot is pretty good.

    He's average but he's good playing passing lanes which portends a higher BBIQ. The man on man can be taught with his motor.

    If he did get a promise don’t you have to take him at 4? You don’t hand out a promise and hope he makes it to your 2nd pick

    If you want him at 4, you don't have to promise him.

    You can tell him, "We would like to draft you, but we would need you to drop to 8 for that. If you stop doing workouts, we'll promise to draft you at 8."

    Really though Salaun goes 7 to Portland. They get their more ready guy at 14.

    Don says they were close to risking Castle fall to 8th by picking Salaun at 4. They wanted Salaun and they really wanted both players If they could.

    He's full of . If they really wanted Salaun we wouldn't have heard about it like with Castle.

    If they thought Castle could’ve been the number on this draft but was contemplating on risking everything to draft Salaun at 4, then they probably saw something special from Salaun worth risking for, the next Giannis??

    Or it’s just smoke screen that Spurs were sending out pre draft

    Defining physical length and athleticism as something special was probably on everyone’s notes. Castle is an actual basketball player. I’m sure that alone talked them off the cliff.

    I hope the kids career works out but he shouldn’t have been top ten.

    Idk. Donny is typically full of , but I could also see this being true. A young French prospect that fits a position of need and who just so happens to be buddies with your franchise player is something I think the Spurs would definitely bite on tbh. Who knows. Irrelevant at this point either way.

    This is bull . If Spurs really wanted 2 guys, they possessed more than enough to trade up and ensure it happened.

    Can you imagine this place if we went with Salaun at 4 and then traded away #8 after Castle wasn’t there?

    Not clear, but some guy figured out which players the Spurs insiders refused to talk about, according to LJ, vs. who was left at 8, and it was Knecht. Although I think someone pointed out they never would say anything about Buzelis either.

    They were 2nd year players they were suppose too, and I wouldn’t consider what they did as destroying the SL, neither even averaged over 20ppg

    They were pretty dominant.
