There's no more pressing need than a big, imo. They can go with Barnes or Champ at SF if they have to. Without a big this team is walking the precipice.
Sorber would or wouldn't be the backup? Either way, the Spurs have more pressing issues than getting a backup C, tbh.Who said anything about pairing? We're not a functional team whenever Wemby sits, we need a legit backup big.
Sorber wouldn't be the backup.
And 73% from the line, so he's at least got something to work with.
He could potentially develop a jumpshot over 3 to 4 years.
If he doesn't, we got a solid backup.
I would rather try adding the 3 and D forward of the future, or at least a center that can shoot and has more versatility being added to different lineups. With 14, the goal should be aiming for a pontential starter that plays 30 to 35 minutes a game, not a backup center that plays less than 20, tbh.

It is easier to add a viable backup center via free agency, than finding a 3 and D wing via that route. So I would rather use our lottery pick on a prototype that is harder to get, and would have a way higher ceiling and usage in our squad.
Maluach is a non shooting big. He’s also got an upside down asst/TO ratio ,and a whopping 2,5 stocks/36.
Eventually you’ll figure it out. Wemby is your 3&D forward.
There are way more interesting 3-D wing than backup C trade and free agency targets.
Backup bigs are down to just a few options if we don't draft one.
Not to mention other teams can offer them a way bigger role.
Why would Capela or Kornet join the Spurs when Lakers need a starter?
I would go for both, tbh. Draft one and FA one. But of course it depends on who is available. They need to solve the position badly. Wings are less of an emphasis for me, if still important. We just can't manage with our second big being Sochan.
Such as? 'Cause I've looked, and unless I ed up doing the research, the free agents list of 3 and D wings is hot garbage, tbh.
How many players do we have represented by CAA or someone else? Why does Klutch matter to you so much? Goofy stuff to say the least; all companies have their pro’s and con’s
I wrote trade and free agency, not just free agency.
Free agency is garbage in general, but backup big trade targets are also garbage, unlike 3-D wing targets.
In KOC podcast today, he had J Kyle Mann on and he said he’s heard that the spurs and OKC are interested in Sorber.
Sorber just makes a ton of sense coming off his injury. He can take a redshirt year like Topic did and slide right into iHart's spot after they let him go to free up salary. ing OKC.
Yeah, I already mentioned that, plus the fact that Sorber showed a lot better game than Maluach on both sides of the ball. Mock drafters and a pile of GMs love a mystery box, though.
Maluach projects as a guy that is supossed to develop a 3pt shot in the near future.
Wishcasting over a mystery box.
Based on what?
I certainly wouldn't hate Maluach at 14 at all... but I don't see why he would be in consideration but Sorber would be out unless you just believe he's that much better of a prospect that you can't pass him up at 14.
I just like Sorber’s game better. He averages close to 3 assists with a right side up asst/TO ratio on one side, and. 4 stocks/36 on the other side of the ball.
I like them both. 14 is a high price to pay for a backup C... but I view it as a backup and as an insurance policy for our most valuable asset (Wemby). Not only would it allow us to stay compe ive if Wemby needs to miss time, but it also might let us load manage Wemby a little more.
Maluach came into college as a promised stretch big, granted, he didn't take many 3's in college, but the potential has to still be there.
Malauch hit the occasional 3 in the African League, he has that in his favor as far as shooting good goes, but still a long shot.
Sorber is so slow I don't get it with him, but whatever.
Give me Fleming or Bryant or Coward or even Wolf.
But I'd still rather have John Collins
If we want Maluach we probably got to move up into the 10 or 11 range. I doubt he is there at 14.
He is the player I would most want to draft with that pick. Fine with him being a backup big and we know Wemby is going to miss some games so he is also going to get to start probably 10 or 15 games a season. I like some matchups with both on the floor and Wemby at the 4 as well.
With all due respect, I'm not buying into Sochan's summer workout videos, and I'm not buying into any other player's either.
If he can develop a reliable 3, awesome, but I'm not drafting him to play alongside Wemby based on the idea that he came into college as a stretch big. If we take this guy (which I'm a proponent of), it's got to be our backup and Wemby insurance policy, IMO, and Sorber fits that same description.
Right now I'd rank my preferences at 14 as follows:
1. Maluach
2. Coward
3. Sorber
4. Bryant
I don't actually think Maluach would be there, so Coward is my top choice (I actually don't think Bryant will be there either)
Castle was said to be too slow to get to the cup, too. It’s not about being fast, it’s about being at a different speed. Slow works, too. You take them down to your speed. Castle showed that, as did Kyle Anderson over the years.
