Liked the pick and Bryant was one of the top options I wanted the Spurs to draft who could have realistically been available in the late lottery. Actually had Bryant over Coward so surprised the Grizzlies liked Coward more.
But holding my expectations as Bryant is only 19 and does not look too NBA ready. Shooting wise, Coward looks more like a sure bet with that high FT% but I didn't like the lower compe ion he played against and his age. Will probably need to see Bryant develop for a couple years and see if he has the skill to become a reliable 3 pt shooter before we see which wing was the better pick.
Sean’s gonna be a happy guy this year.
I’ll be honest. He might become the most likable personality on the team since Keldon for me
College coaches are dumbasses and prefer to play seniors
I kinda feel like Bryant will spend quite a bit of time in Austin this year as he tightens his handle and learns how to be more of a playmaker with the ball.
He’s an immediate 3 and D help.
Only time in Austin should be in a home stand with multiple days off.
He'll need a ton of offensive reps. He has very little on-ball creation ability.
I mean not everyone needs to focus on becoming a superstar. If he’s capable of defending and spot-up shooting at a high level in the big leagues, it seems a little silly to relegate him to the G-league for the sake of hoping he becomes the next Kawhi or something. It’s totally fine for him to not focus on creating a ton of offense as a rookie.
I think this kid actually wants to be the next Kawhi. I think he wants to be great. Sounds like he's going to work his ass off.
Wild to relegate him to just the corners. He needs to develop as if he stayed in school. Let him explore and expand his game. It's nuts to get a lotto pick and cut him off at the knees. And this is the time to do it.
Don’t care.
He’s one of the best perimeter defenseman on the team. There’s no reason to not ship out Keldon and he takes every single minute of his
He fills 2 giant needs.
Kawhi came in. And started within the first few games.
This kid has a better shot and form than him.
Play him for the defense and the shooting
Kawhi played there his entire rookie year. 3 pointers and cuts. That was it.
Kawhi was so much better coming in than Bryant there's no comparison.
People, Carter Bryant didn't even play 20 minutes per game in college. He scored 6 points a game. Slow your ing roll.
He better hit his potential because they passed on Sorber to OKC for him.
Because you know, the Spurs don't have any on-ball creators at all
whoopee
He pick a jersey # yet?
Gotta have five Kobes if you wanna succeed. Trevor Ariza and Danny Green never helped nobody.
You have no idea why we drafted him do you?
Fortunately he needs none, as long as he does the dirty work and shoots it (this is my concern) he's already worth it. Anything extra is a bonus.
If he starts out as a defensive specialist, let him get a little rest during the early part of the shot clock on offense. Let him spot up for 3 pointers.
not cause of his talent. he can be backup wing right away just fine.
