    You didn't get the Pope, but you get the next great Spur. Seems like a good consolation prize!

    I'm pretty sure Ron Harper tore an ACL back when it was an injury that robbed you of your athleticism. I think he worked his way back and ended up on the Bulls. Yes, he was a star with the Cavs pre-injury.
    Yeah that sounds right. Amazing how far it's come that guys come back from an ACL like it's nothing, but it used to be a career-ender.

    Dylan Harper may sound humble off the court but the dude is a Dog on it. Hit the game winner against Cooper Flagg’s team in the Jordan Brand Classic game and shouted “I’m number ing one”. in reference to the top pick. Scored 38 points in that game, outplayed Cooper Flagg and was named MVP. By no means am I saying he is better than Flagg but this guy is compe ive and believes he is the best. I like it.

    Ron Harper pre injury was a beast! I remember when he blew out his knee. Okc trotted out 4 small guards and Chet but spurs fans wondering if our jumbo size guards can coexist. We are good if we Harper good people.

    Harper is a no Brainer at 2nd,grab him and worry about fit later as swe have at least a year or 2 before we have to have that figured out.

    Imagine my surprise when I learned that Harper is a Fil-Am. Double that surprise when found out he went a Don Bosco school!

    I doubt that Ron Harper doesn't want Dylan to be Wemby's future sidekick. Especially when he himself played with MJ

    I never thought about the rookie of the year race. Do you guys think the Spurs will give him the chances to actually compete for it? Ron Harper Sr. definitely could be thinking of that angle too.
    Don’t really care, and consider it unlikely. Unless Flagg gets injured or falls flat on his face, the award will be his.

    Castle basically won the award because he was the #1 option for like the last 20-25 games. Pray that doesn’t happen for a second straight year, with Dylan this time. . Losing the big guns again would mean another lost season. The media machine REALLY didn’t want Castle to win, and SA to go back to back. They will do anything to keep a 3rd straight award from the Spurs.

    I think Dylan’s mom has his ear more than his father. Just a hunch.

    I think it won’t be a problem having a guard rotation of Fox, Castle, Harper, Vassell. With Wemby, assuming he can set good screens, they’ll pick-and-roll everyone to death. 3-point shots that are created will be open, catch-and-shoot type. If Castle can’t knock those down, then his role becomes more limited.

    The problem with the lineup is a lack of defense and rebounding up front other than Wemby. Barnes lacks those things as a 4 despite his knockdown shooting. He’s better suited off the bench. Sochan doesn’t have great size, and his lack of shooting even when left alone in his own zip code really is a liability. They need a legit stretch 4. Flagg would have been an ideal fit, but oh well, you don’t complain about missing the Powerball when you matched all the other numbers.

    The problem is Wemby can’t set good screens, and when he does, we’ve seen him almost get injured. A 4/5 big is a must. Not a skinny Cam Johnson or Ace Bailey type.

    The thing with big guards is they can run a ton of inverted pick and rolls where they set the screens. I mean,if they can successfully run it with Tre Jones setting the picks, Castle and Harper should feast.

    Either he learns how to do that or you can’t ever really build an offense around him. He doesn’t camp out down low, he dribbles so high it’s easy to pick his pocket, and so if you can’t run PnR with him how exactly can he be the focal point? Did I read somewhere that the offense actually got better when he went out for the year? The defense just got so much worse that it more than offset.

    Now you’re getting it! They can also post up the Cason Wallace’s of the world and require double teams,

    Jeremy must embrace a Draymond Green role, hence having him play point last year. His handles, rebounding and finishing must improve.
