Heh I thought you were on the Buzelis train

I am, but Brian Wright hasn't returned any of my texts. I just keep sending him BUZELIS over and over.

I think we'll actually see a little improvement out of them this year. I think ownership is fed up and Langdon will need to show some immediate improvement.

[baseline bum]

14th in this draft is like 20+ in a normal draft. And the other pick is 5 years out still think they could have done better

They'll flip Brogdon later on for a third first. Washington did well here.

[Pauleta14]

He's good but replaceable, they needed veterans and playmaking as much as the Spurs, they have it with Brogdon, got 14M extra cap for this summer and pick 14 gives you same value/gamble than a lottery pick.

+ some draft capital they can use on trades

I like it tbh

I disagree. The early part of the lottery is where the "such and such is the such and such of a normal draft." This draft has some depth into the 20s. The Sengun/Primo draft, for example, had very little. I'd say the 14 in this draft is the 14 in a normal draft.

[TD 21]

The Wizards are more than likely too locked in on Sarr to make a pick related trade with the Spurs.

This was probably done to get Topic, Dillingham or Carrington at 14.

FIFY

Blazers got fleeced. Deni’s most likely outcome is middling roleplayer

It's a good trade for them. They need a connector with Scoot being their point, he's on a good contract, and they need a decent wing.

Agree
Portland had to move one of their guards and the 14th pick isn't anything special.

Yeah, I can see the Spurs making a play to get Topic.

[BatManu20]

These player introductions are corny as . Just start the draft tbh.

Yeah wth was that? I just kept it on as background noise.

[scottspurs]

I know the wizards, pistons, nets and blazers are the favorite tank teams for 2025 draft but the west is absolutely brutal. Spurs could be worse than last year record wise even if they do show improvement as a team overall.

[exstatic]

Oh noes the dream of Brogdon in San Antonio is dead, pls someone check on ex

I’m fine. He was an idea of an archetype of a non-heliocentric PG that can defend that I thought might be available.

Just giving you a hard time lol

[objective]

Tobias Harris for all of the Spurs caproom and a 4 year deal seems a distinct possibility

I can see 4/100+ on the horizon for a 32 year old guy who never sacrificed his body, never drew a charge as a sixer just like Pop's prized Bryn, and whose final 76ers game was a scoreless disgrace.

[Dverde]

I think Derrick Jones Jr should be their primary target. Combine him with Castle/Vassell/Victor/Sochan and you fix a lot of your defensive problems from last year. Plus it hurts one of our rivals in the division.

[spurraider21]

[Mr. Body]

What a massive crater for this guy. Injury prone, but supposedly a headcase.

[djohn2oo8]

Is he any good?

[objective]

Is he any good?

Hard to tell between all the injuries and the nebulous games missed for non injury reasons. He was the last official first rounder under Travis Schlenck, and they're desperate to cut money so they avoid the tax
