Great day guys…..
Please stop making awful analogies. Primo was a nobody, snatched from the second round. Bryant is a top 10 talent. They’re nothing alike. MOST players could be said to benefit from another year in college. Are they all comps?
Carter and dylan calling wemby sir is weird lmao like the guy is only 3 years older than you
You wouldn’t have Tim calling that new drafted guy Gi-no-bi-li
I love Timmy, but Wemby is a more natural leader, a people person. While Timmy sets by example, but I doubt anybody rookie got to talked to him![]()
intriguing pick, but i would not have made it. I would have gone with drake powell, as he seem a better overall defensive prospect based on numbers alone. I also struggle to see the fit with the starters, but he should be a godsend for the bench players
I’m actually surprised you choose primo to compare him to when prospect Sochan is to me a much closer analogy - big defense first 3/4s who are raw coming out with unimpressive counting stats but good rate stats who came off the bench for their respective upperclassman-heavy teams and who were projected to be late lotto guys. Both guys weren’t projected to be one and done early in the season but played their way into their draft slots.
The wild hair on Harper and the low hat on Bryant.
Gotta fit that BBIQ in there somehow.
OKC was playing a 6'5" guy at PF during crunch time.
Could have been better if NOP traded with us, tbh. What the were they thinking trading away next year's unprotected pick? Do they seriously think they are making the playoffs?![]()
You're still avoiding the point, lol, and it's the same for both, they were both players who took on bigger roles unexpectedly and were drafted because of who they might become.
Coward is more than two years older than Bryant. That kinda matters,tbh..
Bryant average mock draft was 10.2..HE was probably in Top 8 in few teams final board. Spurs couldn't believe he was dropping to them that even B Wright said he was ready to trade up for him (probably right after Nets & Toronto "reached" with their picks)
Didn't Wright said Bryant was in the Spurs' top 5?
How do you not see a projected 3 and D player fitting with the starters?
I think the Spurs would've taken Khaman first if he had been there. Since he wasn't there, I think they were excited to get Carter Bryant. Either one fits a need. The bigger question I have, which we will never know, is did they prefer Bryant over Coward?
Agreed. He or Khaman would have fit perfectly into the Spurs rotation. If Carter Bryant keeps his three point shooting up, I could easily see him as a starter for the 2nd half of the season unless Sochan learns how to shoot efficiently. Khaman would have been the perfect backup to Wemby, with the potential to play along side him in certain matchups.
i talked myself into liking Coward more because his shot looks more pure, but Bryant is a more sound defender than Coward is while also being a couple years younger
Consensus suggests this was a solid pick. 3/D forward is what we needed. Yet, I'm wondering if I would have gone with Sorber because he seems more skilled. The top 10 consensus on Carter Bryant seemed to me, uninformed I may be, sort of a reach. I was hoping for a player further along. Not saying this is a bad pick but unless we trade Devin and Keldon an/or push our timeline/ expectations back, I feel CB is going to take too long. I said months ago this guy was catnip for Wright.
On the flipside, hopefully Sweeney can get some defensive production out of him early for a dynamic second unit squad.
Carter will wear #11, last worn by Joshua "PeeWee" Primo and Bryn Forbes before that. Not an ideal pair to follow tbh. Was hoping for #8 tbh but oh well. We move.
Imagine thinking there won't be a Patty Mills number retirement ceremony.
Didn’t watch this until today. Pretty good shooting stroke & can jump out of the gym. Extremely fast hands on defense.

Oh , Carter Bryant's mom is white? No wonder he was high up on the Spurs board. Brian loves him some mixed race toolsy prospects.
