Fixed.

Lol, posted using my phone and chose the wrong thread...
Have to bump this one again.
Is Champagnie a great player? Obviously not.
Does he have disgustingly bad moments, mainly turnovers? He does.
Is he the only traditional shooter on this roster? Obviously.
What does mastermind on our bench do?
10 minutes for Champagnie, 1-1 FG, +1.
Spurs as a team went 11-32, but it's fine, we don't need any 3pt shooters.
Champagnie was the biggest positive surprise this season, but Mitch managed to absolutely ruin him.
He's completely out of rythm now and which young player wouldn't be?
30mpg as a starter, had a 20 game stretch with 14ppg, 37% 3pt on 8 attempts after he figured his role out.
Gets benched, down to 21mpg, still at 38% 3pt, but Mitch Johnson has other plans.
Like how the don't you call a single play for your only goddamn shooter?

Champ is a very good role player who can play great with better teammates around him. It’s not the same opportunity playing with the 2nd squad, worst he starts doing outside his comfort zone, resulting to bad shots and turnovers
castle ballhogging is a massive downgrade for him
As hard it is to defend Mitch, I get it regarding Champ tbh...
He can do one thing at "elite" level but is below average or horrible in so many areas it's tough to leave him on the court. The guy can't even do an inbound pass ffs!!!
Like Sochan, he messes up so many plays bc of low IQ or court vision and never sees the easy/obvious passes (for Wemby or other player cutting in the paint for ex. He's not the only one)
He's a one trick pony like 90% of the roster but Spurs fans are so upset at Vassell that Champ looks better than he really is. Vassell is an idiot but so much more skilled, it's not even close really.
You have to be an alchemist to manage this roster if we're honest (Mitch still sucks)
our 36% shooting specialist
I'd look at adding him to a trade if some team wants him to make a trade for a better player work, I think the Spurs should look at those options.

Just In: The San Antonio Spurs will fully guarantee the $3 million salary of Julian Champagnie for the 2025-26 season, sources told Hoopshype
. Champagnie was one of 11 players to appear in all 82 games last season, shot 37.1% from 3-point range, and averaged 9.9 points per game.
Nba teams should look at trading players for better players....you're diabolical sir
If he improves defensively.....
Then, another 3 and D
One down, Fox and Sochan extensions to go.
Outside chance Barnes extends too?
They should extend Champ this year.
Nah. Just sign Justin n the cheap, and develop him.
I am OK signing him to maybe a two year deal but he really needs to improve on the defensive side as he sometimes looks kinda lost out there. Hopefully Mitch can have a solid rotation down after 15 games and won’t follow Pop “Mad Scientist” schtick.
They can’t. It’ll be next summer.
I really like Champ, and I hope he can become an even better player. I did say I'd trade him in the right deal if it was needed to return a really good player, but otherwise, I hope he can develop further and become a great role player for the Spurs. He needs to keep his confidence on offense at all times, but also needs to stay 100% focused on the defensive side of the ball as he sometimes loses focus there. Hope he does well and has a great season.
Will there be restrictions in extending champ when he’s eligible for one? Such as max increases and duration? With the way he’s playing I think he can get a decent $12m per type of contract.
