This is so goood. What's the name of their social media team?
I heard somewhere that's a blatant, commonly repeated lie.

You have to wonder how many of these intros he has in his collection.
I get why many don't like him, but I've always been a fan and thought he's historically underrated.
Like Aldridge, he's obviously not signing here for altruistic reasons, but no matter how it turns out, I'll still always respect him for taking the plunge when very few non international players even near his stature would.
As an aside, the league mandated legit barefoot height listings a few years back (even though many are still fake), but for some reason not weight. Many, like him, are still from when they were drafted, but don't be fooled by the 175 in the press release. He's probably more like 190-195.
He could wear #27 because it's 3^3. Carry on the legacy of Nicolas Laprovittola.
people here talk a lot about Wemby benefitting from CP3, but y'all gon see Vassell make a huge jump in efficiency because he's finally gonna get open catch and shoot 3s. The guy was top 10 in taking contest shots last season.
damn that's a fumble by the spurs org
Can't believe he got a chance to play for Pop?
We're going to pretend 2017 never happened?
if anyone is wondering why spurs social media is turrible......she wrote in her blog about how spurs org gave her little resources & little support.......
Darn, that sucks. Glad she's doing well now, but she probably should have gotten more help when she was running the Spurs' social media.
Wemby’s clout around the league is top notch
no surprise, the Spurs are being run by 80-year olds. It's a miracle that they have an instagram account.
Certainly some of you who live in San Antonio have friends who do/have worked for SS&E. Just go ask them how things are run... they'll tell you (I've heard some doozies). It's just as dysfunctional and slow moving as any other big organization. SS&E certainly doesn't operate like a tech start up (nor should they, necessarily).
I don't know what you are talking about, I live in Germany
‘it’s really perfect for castle to come off the bench as backup PG and then shift over to wing at times so he will get starting level minutes.
Sorry - didn't mean to imply you, was just elaborating on your comment that the Spurs are run by 80 year olds.
A washed up CP3? This man wanna stat chase. Pop is gonna play his ass 30 minutes a game.
Keldon playing hardball tbh
It all adds up:
1) Traded #8 for Minnesota picks because Jazz owns their picks up until 2030.
2) Keldon's salary is equal to Markkanen's.
3) Chris Paul won't wear any number other than #3.
4) They haven't announced his number yet because then they'd need to also announce Keldon's new number.
5) No need to announce Keldon's new number if he gets traded.
It's only a matter of time.![]()

CP3 is the first guy in the “Best Bargains” section of Bobby Marks’s article. Here’s what he had to say - gives a little bit of insight into the bonuses:
It would have been easy for Paul to latch on to a contending team and chase that elusive NBA championship. Instead, Paul left the Golden State Warriors and signed a one-year, $10.5 million contract to play for Hall of Fame coach Gregg Popovich and franchise player Victor Wembanyama. We can think of Paul as an extension to Popovich's coaching staff, but the 39-year-old veteran will also help on the court and in the locker room.
The Spurs last season ranked 24th in turnover percentage, 27th in turnovers per game and 28th in percentage of passes leading to a turnover, according to Second Spectrum tracking. Last season, Paul ranked behind only Tyus Jones in assist-to-turnover ratio. His 715 assists on alley-oop dunks rank most among active players.
Paul has eight sets of bonuses in his contract, including a $262K incentive if the Spurs (or the team he finishes the season with) wins 32 games or more.
I hope so, but Vassell also seems to work himself into those shots. Not sure if he feels like he is more comfortable off the dribble or just trying to be like KD, but sometimes he seems like he is trying to find the most difficult shot possible.
Hopefully having a real PG and a solid vet like Barnes around him will elevate his game too...could be the key to him breaking into the next tier.
