Samanic shot 21% from 3 in the Adriatic, seems ready to replace Bertans after next year.

Chip doesn't speak Adriatic.

[99 Problems]

Definitely NOT a Bertans clone. 21%... sheesh.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Of course. They can’t run away as fast an black American athletes (See Kawhi).

[BWS-1994]

Who else are still with him in the Green Room?

[NickiRasgo]

Jordan Poole - atleast not something we know who has a potential.

[RC_Drunkford]

It's more likely that he shut it down to not show too much, imo. timvp said he's with that agency that tries to land players with their team of choice as opposed to as high as possible...and we all know Europeans love themselves some Spurs.

You got a point there. The good thing is his biggest weakness is that he's not giving 100% all the time, but when he does he's great. Pop would never let that slide, so it's easy to fix. I also thinks Spurs want Bogdanović to mentor him

Yeah, racist low IQ posters comparing this guy to Bertans just shows how low their IQ is. Their racism blinds them from obvious facts.....sad tbh....

[FkLA]

We already have him, and we're paying him more than 8-9M/year. His name is Davis Bertans. We also already invested in developing Bertans. And his position is not nearly as important as a 3-and-D guy in Today's NBA, especially with our roster. Horrible pick.

I think it's lazy to compare him to Bertans just because they're both white euros. Bertans is strictly a stretch four. Samanic, to me, looks like he can be a combo forward with his ballhandling+slashing ability, imho.

[DAF86]

it, go for Bol.

[John B]

Roby please!!!

[Texas_Ranger]

Samanic is nothing like Bertans, only similarities are their heights and that they're white guys. Samanic is way more athletic and way more fluid offensively.

Lets hope he will show some of that athleticism and be fluid offensively, cause after watching the guy play in over 30 games all he showed me is that he sucks.

[RC_Drunkford]

Claxton or Roby. Don't this up again RC

[rastaspur]

Jordan poole looks like a massive tool.

[exstatic]

This server will melt into a puddle if we pick Bitadze or Fernando.

[Russ]

These guys are Spurs if picked:

Keldon Johnson
Kevin Porter Jr.
Nicolas Claxton

[LCM]

Wow!! Golden State just crap the bed!

[John B]

Roby 6’8”, 7’3” wingspan, Murray connection

[phxspurfan]

Sure, I get this criticism - I was just saying don't knock the pick because of his athleticism. Personally, I think he has a higher ceiling than Bertans. His shot isn't there yet and probably won't reach Bertan's level, but he's on track to be a very capable shooter. And in my opinion he is more skilled or has the potential to be in other key facets of the game - especially taking his man off of the dribble. He's a very skilled ball handler for his size.

Hey, I wanted Little like everyone else. But I also see the upside with Samanic.

I'm not knocking really anything about him specifically, and maybe Spurs drafted what they thought was best available vs. by need. I'm just saying due to last year's show, we know what our need is, and it's glaring.


I'll just put this right here.

[Cardinal]

I wouldn't go for Bol here. Porter/Roby/Paschall/Okpala/Johnson/Claxton would all be fantastic options instead.

[GreekSpursfan]

Jordan poole looks like a massive tool.

Was about to say the same,

[John B]

That’s our athletic SF es. Roby

[rastaspur]

Roby or claxton are good with me

[John B]

That’s our athletic SF es. Roby

[Big P]

Keldon Johnson it is
