    If he's still there, I'd grab Thon Maker. Indications are that he might fall to the second round, so we might get lucky.

    He's a raw 7 footer with guard skills, which seems to be the new way in the NBA. He can shoot and handle, so the key will be getting him to add weight and sharpen up his big man skills and toughness.

    He'd take 3-4 years to develop, but if anyone can get the best out of him it's the Spurs.

    Who do you like?

    PG Wayne Baldwin from vandy.

    I like the idea of a Thon Maker but he needs to be either on the D League or he needs to be on the roster. Absolutely no more draft and stash guys. Absolutely hate when we get a guy who is 3 years away or 4 years away and we hope that they'll actually improve by being overseas in a league that isn't even close to NBA talent. Nope, they need to expose themselves to NBA level talent or guys that potentially could play in the NBA

    The Spurs should draft the best available talent instead of filling specific needs. That way, they may end up with a Jimmy Butler instead of a Cory Joseph.

    Doesn't matter, Spurs will draft and stash a European with 12 vowels in his last name

    Sadly this is probably what will happen.. And they'll say he's 3 or 4 years away.

    It was said RC watched Cojo play a lot personally bc his son playedat the UT with Cojo. It was considered a bit of a reach at the time, but who knows? The way they are they probably don't grab Jimmy Butler either. We probably are lucky we got a good Cojo his last 2 seasons here instead of a foreign stash that would never have come over.

    The Spurs need a 7-footer with C skills.

    Haven't really scouted much. Really depends if the Spurs believe they will be free agent players this offseason. If they go domestic for once Deandre Bembry is the only guy that has caught my eye that looks like he is going around our pick. If we go international the only prospect that has caught my eye is Petr Cornelie. Need to look at more of the internation guys, because I think we are going to try to get an international 3 or 2.

    Thon Maker has the most raw potential to be something great. Hes 2 years away from being Porzingis. If we get a shot we gotta take it. Sign or trade for a PG.

    Whatever they do, avoid the draft and stash IMO.. they need to inject some youth into the team

    I was thinking Thon Maker before I even clicked the thread. I'm thinking he would be a great steal at 29. I think he's got a lot of room to grow. Very young too.

    The team is going to need NBA ready players that can contribute right away since they will be capped out & full off minimum salary guys like Simmons. Thon Maker would make sense for a rebuilding team like the Bucks since Kidd loves lanky players who can handle the rock.

    If they're having a go at a max FA then anyone who won't come next season or trade the pick.

    If they're looking for someone who can play now then Brogdon or GPII seem OK to me. Maybe someone with a bit higher upside slides.

    Just for a change I'd like to see us grab and stash a 6'7-6'9 euro guard. Or a 7 foot euro. Even an English big man.

    I'd like to trade and pick up a 2nd. Whether by player or our 1St for two 2nd. I don't think the drop off from 25-40 is that much a difference. Good opportunity to pick up some legit role players that can contribuye next year.

    Bembrey, Jones, maker. Are all possibilities. In the second there's a couple guys that stand out.

    Cat barber would be an ideal Patty replacement who is a much more reliable handler and can flat out score, but liability on defensive end much like Patty.

    I really like Michael Gbinije. 24 yr old, but plays like a vet. Defense, handles, play making and leadership. Oh yea, he can shoot too. Would be ecstatic with picking him up. Spursy type of player.

    I think there's a good chance spurs bring over bertans or hanga, more likely hanga with his growth this past year. If they're ready, could solve the backup wing issue. Both are athletic and can run . Hangas knock was always his defense or lack of, and ability to consistency shoot. He improved both by strides. If they bring one of two of them, opens up draft and trade possibilities
