I just hope we draft Harper and get one of Maluach, Sorber or Coward at #14 (or move up)
7 pm CT on ESPN and ABC.
We made it gents.
Welcome to SA, Dylan Harper.
I just hope we draft Harper and get one of Maluach, Sorber or Coward at #14 (or move up)
It's pretty easy and I don't see any surprises:
#2: Harper
#14: Either they are high on players like Bryant, Sorber, Essengue, Fleming or Coward (not all of them will be available at that point) or they trade it for future assets (propably a first + a swap)...I trust them regarding the mentioned players.
#38: Maxime/Broome will surely be gone...so they take a stach or two way guy that probably never will contribute.
Same. I think this goes for most of us
12 hours 48 mins to go…
Just curious: Would you take those over Bryant or are you assuming, that Bryant is gone for sure at #14?
I have it:
Bryant
Maluach (I don't see him falling to #14 even though the Hawks probably took themself out of the teams drafting him)
Fleming
Coward
Essengue
Sorber
(not including other guys that will be gone for sure)
I really like what I've seen watching Coward videos, he can probably make an impact right away, but my concern is that backup big market is non-existant and we can't really get anyone reliable without overpaying, especially since a lot of teams are looking for a starter, while we can't guarantee more than 15 minutes a night.
Pelicans, Raptors, Suns, Bulls all need a big, there's absolutely no way Maluach is available.
On the other hand, Hawks trading for Porzingis is good for us because adding them into the mix would also make Sorber a difficult get.
If OKC doesn't move up, I think we'll get Sorber.
But if they do, I expect them to take him.
Still, a couple of months ago we were hoping we could get Knueppel. Now we're guaranteed to get Harper and another solid player, we have no right to complain.
Good morning spurs nation. Tonight is the beginning of a dynasty.
Well yeah, there is a good possibility we will hear one of those "And with the second pick in the Draft, the Spurs select..." moments that will be in dynasty videos in a century or two.
But let's not jinx it!
From '26 on we will be a commercial break draft team again.
We got someone else's pick in every draft from '26 to '31 exept for '29.
Need to start practicing hate watching.
#2
Harper
#14
Sorber
Queen (I’d take him if he’s there, but doubt it)
Bryant
Fleming
Wolf
#38
Reynaud
Broome
Hansen
Goldin
I seriously doubt the Spurs are moving Vassell, Barnes or Keldon. It’s just not them to easily move on.
Wishlist: Sign and trade for John Collins. But I doubt it. Again, Spurs would rather run Sochan and Barnes again at the 4 position. Maybe sign a backup C in Capela. They will evaluate and possibly make a move by trade deadline or from available waivers, depending on what they need to go deep in the playoffs. Oh yeah, I think the Spurs are at 7th or 8th place with a healthy Wemby. But next season is when they go all-in.
I would cry tears of joy if Maluach were available at 14, but I doubt it. Would the Spurs really take Sorber over Beringer?
Dylan Harper day!
I’m getting teary eyed seeing all the new Sorber fans after campaigning for him for months.
14 - Bryant, Maluach, Essengue, Coward. I can talk myself into Berringer or Sorber.
38 - Any big with a pulse if we don’t take one at 14, a draft and stash or Brea/Lanier and pray they become functional on defense. Ideally, we make a cheapish trade up for someone like Fleming or Raynaud.
Harper at 2 and with 14 are some decent options with coward,bryant,sorber,fleming.Tho i think there is a good chance we go for the
french prospects in noa essengue or beringer which is meh.At 38 maybe yang or goldin for a center or peavy at sf.
Harper and Coward or Sorber. No Essengue and no Beringer.
There is a good chance the spurs office goes the same route and draft one of the french prospects.They seem to love
those type of players.
Draft Harper, avoid Beringer, and no trading 14 if it means only getting future draft capital in return. Those are my main points of emphasis.
Bryant/Coward/Sorber have settled in as my top 3 mostly realistic targets at 14. If we come away with any of those 3 guys I’ll be ecstatic. Clifford/Fleming are probably just below those guys - trading down a few spots and still getting either of those 2 would be a nice win as well.
My official 2 picks that I want.
Edgecomb and Demin. Now that we have amazing player development coaches I think it would be ok for us to choose the guy with the highest upside. I have no idea how much Edgecomb will develop in Philly but I do believe he is capable of becoming a top 10 player within 5 years time.
I also like Demin bc of his size and passing ability. At 14 we are pretty much getting a bench player. A legit 6’8 player with amazing court vision is hard to find in any draft. He won’t be much of a defender and he needs a jumper to say the least, however I believe this team is missing connectors from its big men and just imagining him running our offense in the future brings excitement to the loins. In 5 years time he could be our Bobo.
How upset will this board be if we take McNeely?
let‘s make the playoffs first before we talk about dynasties again
Players I want to be drafted before our #14 pick:
Beringer
Dairy Queen
Essengue
Fears
Richardson
Wolf
CMB
We've only got Sean Sweeny (who are the other amazing player development coaches?), but he could leave quite quickly (I hope he stays for a while, though, and possibly take over from Mitch if he falters) if he gets a head coaching job. I like Mitch, but he hasn't proven yet that he can develop players. Having said that, I hope it was just Mitch being hamstrung last season and this season it's different and he's able to do what he wants, and for it to have great results.
