Rapid Reaction to the Newest Spur-Jean Charles

[BatManu20]

Should have selected Tony Mitc 6' 9" 240lbs

Massive underachiever. Spurs would never.

People needa chill. Can't really place high expectations on a late first rounder...

Trade This Kid For Batum!!

[Buddy Holly]

I really hate that. He better be good.

You really hate a number some poster pulled from his ass?

I think you need to stop taking posts as face value.

Really like the pick. The extra cap space may be more valuable than any rookie would be this year. Plus, Jean-Charles has the potential to be a great fit for the future Spurs. A long 3/4 that the Spurs can develop is an important piece for the direction the NBA is going.

gosh i was so excited. i thought gobert was going to fall to the spurs!

i'm also not thrilled about draft and stashing... but oh well. i like those nike hoops summit numbers. and if there's enough cap space. cause of stashing. aminu+clark, free agency? i'd like this pick a lot more.

H\
livio Jean Charles looks very un athletic with no explosiveness. In 2,3 or 4 years he'll still be Un athletic and UN explosive. Absolutely no upside.

Obviously you haven't seen this kid play, I watched the Nike Summit Game on youtube yesterday and he was the best player for the most part on the and one the most athletic guys out on the court, Wiggins was the most explosive. He is every bit explosive as Kevin Durant (not saying he is good as him) and his length (7'3" wingspan) gives him an advantage as he just stepped around players with ease for layups and floaters. And he can shoot as well. He played with Schroeder, Karasev, etc. all the guys that got drafted ahead of him and he was the MVP of the game.

Enough with the frenchies, are they giving pop some bribe wine?

Touche. I also saw that a couple of places including on ESPN's broadcast. It will probably be a least a couple of year though.

@JMcDonald_SAEN: Jean-Charles basically blew up at the Nike Hoops Summit in April. Won MVP. Then didn't work out for any NBA teams. His closing argument.

[kemak]

I have faith in the Spurs management. They know what they are doing. I welcome our new frenchy!

[spursince#99]

No such thing as the "next Duncan".. Especially one of those draft picks. Our best bet is to get an experienced big man who can fit right in to help out Duncan. Timmy doesn't need to be giving some punk kid bball lessons right now. It's desperation time for a 5th championship.

smartest thing said on this thread.

[elmanutres]

my reaction is he better be tony parker/manu draft steal potential. the kind of guy that people will say a couple years for now "god dam how did they not pick him earlier" like parker and gino

I agree. I wouldn't be surprise if Duncan became a Spurs assistant coach in the future or like Robinson, who still works out with the Spurs and mentors the young guys on this team as well.
