    So is Tony Parker, tbh.
    Not originally, he used to be fast.

    With Green and Kawhi on the wings we can survive with a non athlete at PG. I mean Parker was a beast in 2013 without being an explosive athlete.

    Thoughts on Tyus Jones? Cojo and Mills are both incomplete PGs imo. And while I love Cojos defense his PG skills leave something to be desired.
    I'm not a fan at all. Would much prefer Jerian Grant if we can move up. If not, maybe Wright falls to 26.

    There are a couple of prospects that don't seem to be slated to be drafted in a lot of the mock drafts. I mentioned it in the Think Tank but I wouldn't mind giving a call to Aaron Harrison after the draft for a camp or summer league invite.

    Shouldn't have to settle for unathletic PG if we don't have to. Wright and Grant are better options that could fall.

    Joseph's PG skills are just fine. Not great, but very adequate for a backup. His problem is that he needs to have the ball in his hand to be effective and he has a tendency to become passive when he isn't able to do that. But as far as the roster goes, he's one of few who can get a look any time he wants.

    Haven't seen any of their vids. Will check them out. I got a feeling about Tyus though. Seems like a Spur. Willing passer and all.

    Tbh I'm just tired of Pop's bull with both Mills and Cojo. Just choose one imo. He benches one for the other way too much for my liking. I just want a steady backup PG.

    The one guy I do not want at 26 is Cliff Alexander. Seen a few mocks have us taking him, and I would hate the pick, tbh. Doesn't make much sense either. He's not very skilled at all. An undersized 4 at 6'8 who is a good rebounder, but that's about it. Would be another Errors-type imo.

    "Five separate NBA teams we spoke with all indicated varying degrees of concern after consulting with their team doctors this week, with some saying it may cost the Kentucky big man a few spots on draft night....
    ...Even beyond any injury concerns, a more pressing issue that Cauley-Stein is dealing with is the apparent lack of need for a player with his skill-set in the 7-10 range, should he fall past Orlando or Sacramento at 5 or 6."

    If by chance he falls from 11 to 15, I'd be willing to give up Splitter (if it also nets us LMA)

    Yeah, Cliff looks awful. It would be a major disappointment to have him picked by the Spurs. I'd rather see them trade the pick for cash.

    Not Spurs related but looking at what the blazers could be getting for the 23rd pick is interesting, cause trading down might be an option.

    Joe Kotoch of SheridanHoops says a close source to the Spurs told him that the Spurs will not be taking on any money on draft night. In other words, barring an unforeseen trade or a top prospect slipping to 26, we're likely going draft-and-stash again.

    Well that about covers it all . So unless a good player falls (duh) or they perhaps trade (duh) the Spurs may or may not take on money by drafting a stash. So they will either take a good player if he falls to them, trade or stash

    That website is garbage.

    Some observations re: draft

    1. Spurs draft-and-stash plan is mere speculation prescinding from the premise they're going after Aldridge or Gasol, which has so far been unsubstantiated.
    2. Clear they're looking for a 4th big and/or a guard that can shoot.
    3. That Spurs are "interested" in Nance, aside from work out, has also been unsubstantiated.
    4. Some names unheard of here and there (Jeromie Hill, Satnam Singh Bhamara, Janis Berzins) that the Spurs have worked out.
    5. Guards net a more immediate return (window is closing), so I wager they're picking a guard with the 1st round pick, and a big man with the latter pick.

    I hope they get a big in the first and a guard in the 2nd.

    I would like to see us get Christian Wood if he falls to us.

    So that explains some of the recent workouts with international players. As i posted earlier, i think that means we are taking a big. One of the Hernangomez, Milutinov,Gudaitis trio. Could they really take Berzins in the first if they liked him that much? ... And out of that 3, i like Gudaitis the most.

    Another question, which prospect that is out of our reach would we sacrifice cap space for should he fall? Anderson, Looney?

    Sixers apparently want to trade their 35th and 37th picks for a first rounder. Wouldn't surprise me to see the Spurs take this route.
    I could definitely see this, based on who they've worked out this far.

    It makes almost zero sense to draft and stash when there is a need for a backup wing

    They already have a back up wing that's likely better than any wing available at 26 -- Kyle Anderson.

    Draft/stashing or trading their pick for a future 1st ( giving them two 1sts in the 16' draft) seems like a likely scenario to me. IMO

    he essentially said we're definitely going draft-and-stash, but yea, idk much about SheridanHoops, or any of these other sources not named Woj tbh, so everything in thos thread should be taken with a grain of salt.

    Am I the only one that feels like who they draft will show what their long term interest is in Patty? I think if they really like a combo guard that's available, they may go for it and feel a little bit better about trading Patty in a potential Aldridge trade.
