STACKED!
STOP THE COUNT
STACKED!
Such drastic difference between drafts.
I'd be happy with any of those top8 guys.
Two lottery picks would be great, top5 pick would be a jackpot.
Traore been struggling
Harper with 5 assists and 7 turnovers, combined 2-10 from 3 in his first 2 games
Who will be this year's Isiah Collier (projected Top 5, ends up going end of round 1)?
we definitely need a backup center. I can't think of a worse big man in the league today than Collins. I have no idea WHY or how he is still in the league.
I'm fairly confident that Noa Essengue will be drafted using one of the Spurs picks next draft tbh.
Powell has already begun the slide tbh.
Him and Traore and gonna be in the lottery
#TakeItInTheFaceForAce #TakeItInThePooperForCooper
And so will the Spurs picks most likely tbh.
Traore might not be a target now that we have our gem PG
I'd love to get Noa and I like more and more Kneuppel and Tre Johnson
Shooting abilities has to be top criteria
The development of Keldon as a facilitator is another sign that the team want to go with bigger players if possible. It's hard to see them taking a smaller guard at this point. We'll see.
Who are you talking about?
Noa - 6'9
Knueppel - 6'7
Johnson - 6'6
A) Good luck with that
B) I wouldn't classify Traore as a "smaller guard" tbh
I'd think we'd take a smaller guard only if it's somene projected to be a 20/10 playmaker with at least neutral defense.
I think one of those instant offense playmakers would be great for the bench unit, we'll see how things go.
Only two lottery projected players as of now are smaller. Edgecombe and Traore.
1. Folks need to accept that the team is developing Keldon's playmaking abilities.
2. I don't doubt Traore or Edgecombe could be looked at, but feels they'd need to be high level defenders at their size. I wasn't sure before this draft but now am convinced they're going bigger, going for guys who can play different positions and roles.
We can also accept he will never develop them because his biggest flaw is zero court awareness and tunnel vision whenever he gets the ball.
Well since Castle looks to be our future PG, we kind of don't need any more guards. I doubt we'd go into the first season with some expectations with rookie and sophmore point guard duo. I guess either CP3 stays one more year or Tre gets a new deal.2. I don't doubt Traore or Edgecombe could be looked at, but feels they'd need to be high level defenders at their size.

We need wings with size and shooting. Luckily for us, there seems to be a lot of those in this draft.
They can try developing that area all they want, doesn't mean it's going to be effective at an NBA level![]()
Scouting on Edgecombe projects him to be a pretty good defender tbh. He's pretty much got the same body type as Anthony Edwards who is a plus defender.
The Spurs will be in great shape as long as they land a pick in the 1-8 range tbh. This draft is absolutely loaded and all the guys that will be projected to go in the range all seem like good fits on a SA roster going forward.
I'd give a little more weight to guys that can shoot but they'd be lucky to land any one of the top '25 prospects.
If for some reason they manage to get a top 5 pick, they'd absolutely be fishing with dynamite tbh.
Edgecomb is 6’5”, which I don’t consider “smaller”. Your mileage may vary.
Nah Edgecombe isn’t even near 6’5, regardless of what he’s listed at. 6’3 at best and so is Nolan Traore. They both look very small when you watch them play. At least VJ has insane athleticism.
I’m very low on Traore right now, having watched a few full games. Sure, he plays against grown men but still. Hopefully both improve a lot during the season. I’d have them outside of the top 5 right now.
Until the combine, I just go by the listed measurements.
There were people who thought Dilly was over measured, and he came out about as measured.
Tre Johnson is the dream for me. Good size, plays with effort on defense, great shooter, can create on his own shot, and he doesn't seem to force anything. He's going to be special. A decent sized floor spacer who plays within the flow of the game and can create his own shot while playing competent defense is just what the doctor ordered for this team.
Tbh, it's the neck.
Would probably be 6'3 with an average neck.
