agree, alpha doing alpha things
Agreed. By all accounts he’s a good teammate and has that will to win that you want to see. I like the chip he carries on his shoulder. Let him be vocal about it. You can’t expect every player to fit the Timmy mold. People stuck nephew in that box based on him being non-social with the media, not realizing he’s nothing like Tim as a leader, person, or teammate. Murray is all-Spur when it comes to heart and effort, IMO, and he’s blazing his own path.
The Swagger that we need
There's a long history of first or high draft picks bombing out the league after a couple years. Tanking is no guarantee of improved roster.
Spurs staff thinking DC, Bryn should be a starters, should be in the league, indicate their eye for talent is myopic.
the bloviating "I be's da best right now".
Ya that's gonna do it.
Yes, the front-office that discovered Manu, Tony, drafted George Hill, traded for Kawhi Leonard and has acquired countless other players (Malik Rose, Antonio Daniels, Stephen Jackson, Danny Green, Aron Baynes, etc.) for them to have solid NBA careers is "myopic......"
Because ST's combined basketball knowledge and eye for talent is superior to that of a hall of fame coach and one of the best NBA GM's ever.
Also, Murray being confident is often confused with "arrogance" on here. As if Parker and Ginobili didn't think they were the best guard(s) in the league or Duncan the best player.
He's around in the "social media" age so his "voice" and opinion will be much, much louder with the extra exposure. I'm just thankful he's remaining engaged with the team and motivated to be the best.
You can mock his "bloviating" and grammar (oh no, Internet Grammar Police!), but he has a case for the best defensive PG in the NBA.
Ya that's gonna do it.
Weird how Spurs fan wants Pop and R.C. to "get with the times," but and moan when the team's young point guard does a little bragging/puffing out his chest on social media.
I'll take Dejounte striving to be a great defender especially with all the defensive sieves currently on the roster.
I don't want want DJ striving to be the best defensive guard in the NBA you are claiming?
Cmon man Strawman tactic on SpursTalk is such a lame staple.
Look it's a cultural thing. The fake wrappers etc acting all super overconfident.
If a bunch of you are fine with the bloviating, great, blov away.
It's based on insecurity, not real confidence.
But if it helps Murray then great, go for it. You are not and will not see me stopping him.
Just the fact that he CARES about defense is refreshing... You'll rarely if ever see John Wall, James Harden, Kemba Walker, or Damian Lilliard talk like this about defense.
How is it based on insecurity when statistically he was one of the best defensive PG's last season?!
The kid is confident (maybe y or "arrogant"), but he's also shown himself to be humble, appreciative and willing to learn during his time in San Antonio. Also, there is clear difference in him stating he is the best at something and the silly "money phone," "bling bling," braggadocious, etc. aspects of Hip-Hop (or American) culture (at large).
But, I'm sure him being young, rich and black it is easier to paint him with that broad brush without actually looking at context....
This tbh. Really excited to have him next year. A shame about the injury this year, seemed like he was ready to take that step forward
this team has a leadership problem (which is evident if your leader is Patty Mills and you pay him 50 million for just that and playing 20 minutes a night off the bench) and people in here have a problem with DJ being confident
He's exactly the type of personality this team is missing
Any chance he returns for the playoffs? They’d be right around the 6 month mark after his injury. Maybe get some of that Adrian Peterson healing factor. Jerry Rice came back after 3.5 months but immediately hurt his knee cap, which is where they got the material for the ACL reconstruction.
Personality isn't the same thing as leadership.this team has a leadership problem (which is evident if your leader is Patty Mills and you pay him 50 million for just that and playing 20 minutes a night off the bench) and people in here have a problem with DJ being confident
He's exactly the type of personality this team is missing
He's a natural leader and has shown flashes of it last season already. This will only become more evident with him improving as a player, not to mention him being in coaching meetings this season
facts, and Dejounte has both things
You would have to ask his group.
Ya that's gonna do it.
I can’t wait for this kid to come back. He’s right he hasn’t even been a starter for a whole season yet and made 2nd All NBA Defensive team. I love the confidence and the belief in himself. He has his head on straight and truly loves the game and has a big heart. Literally exactly what this team desperately needs. This team has ZERO character.
while busts do happen, the spurs could package the pick in a trade and let another team worry about drafting the right person.
Clearly. He just needs to add the skill.
Your stupid. She was fine as . At his age I would of started my own YouTube channel and looked like a doing it for some of that.
...offensive, although I think he really would have taken the next step already this season
Imo it added to the chances of him getting injured.
So much time spent attention whoring with her.
Mind before body injury is super common.
I can't prove it. You can't disprove it.
That you think she is uber fine, good for you son.
Food, women, wine tastes are all a matter of the beholder.
