KJ is showing a lot of basketball fundamental, he will be very easy to coach. The worst game was with Loonie on the court , the ball was not moved well.
I would have to say NO; not at all homie.

I think the question was rhetorical.
Really excited about potential DJ, White, Keldon lineups in the future. Big defensive potential there. The offensive skill sets will need to continue to improve so that you can play them all together though
Keldon would have been a steal at 19 (much less 29).
The interesting thing will be to watch Luka vs. Little over the years. It certainly looks like the Spurs could have had either one PLUS Keldon.
Of course, Little was hard to pass up at where he fell to. But I'll trust PATFO unless and until the facts counsel otherwise.
Little scored 2 pts in his first summer league game and 7 pts in his second. His game is mediocre and he will be a total bust.
Really odd pining for other draft picks after all the Spurs' picks have been playing well.
I wasn't a fan of drafting Samanic - I said so through the whole offseason discussion. But by the time the draft came around, I was certain that's who they were going with if he was still on the board. I wasn't a big fan of Little, either. The Spurs saw a lot more of Samanic than me, so I'm happy waiting to see how he develops. But people talking about how Samanic is only 19 should remember that he's only 3 months younger than Keldon Johnson.
I had KJ on my personal short list from the day he declared. I didn't think there was any way he would fall to 29, so I figured he was out of the question. If he and Samanic had been drafted in the opposite order, the only difference would be that KJ would have the bigger rookie contract. Getting them both was a damn good outcome. In two years time, I don't think the Spurs will have to apologize for passing on Little.
Now we just have to wait and see.
I’m on board with Becky taking over the main team. She always makes young players look better than what they are. Fathead was a prime example of that. She can take over as soon as this preseason tbh
#beckywiththegoodplays has spoken...
can we sign her to a successor contract right now?
15 years later and you're still on the same schtick. Not sure if I'm impressed at the persistence or sad at the time spent on this nonsense. Pop is literally the GOAT. Its time for you to stop hating on him.
This is some of the stupidest I've ever read.
Na, all he's done since his last le is focus on politics and overpaying washed up vets out of loyalty. Was really hoping we'd get the Pop of old with a chip on his shoulder after Kawhi left, but that didn't happen. Managed to pull all the wrong levers and lose the Denver series with his rotations. Needs to get over himself, like he tells all the young ballers to do if they want to do anything besides fetch donuts and water for Patty.
Or, Nephew and friends acted in bad faith.
I always love when people say Pop's focus is now politics after a total of about 10 minutes of his talking politics in a year.
That is, this episode had nothing to do with politics and race.
At the risk of suggesting that Aggies are not experts on the subject of race in America . . .
I don't think that you have to annoint the "thug culture" in order to acknowledge the history (continuing) of the oppression of black people in this country.
No .
Appointing Patty Mills as the "Leader" and paying he and Gasol $$$$ while calling Kwa a non leader is some GOAT stuff.
Get with it AggieHoopsFan.
I work in the legal community, about half of it with youths on the wrong side of the law. So, school associated stereotypes aside, I'd like to say I'm more educated than most on the problems going on in this country on that side of things. When Pop whines about it hard to be AA in "Trump's America", he's trotting out typical elitist political tropes without really understanding the true issues and problems in our country. Even moreso when he cheapens it with trying to tie it to Trump.
Sorry that some folks can't step back and look at the fact Pop's clashed with every baller type (Jax, Simmons, Dedmond, etc.), basically anyone that shows a spine or at ude on the court. He prefers a certain style of player and personality (which is certainly his right), but don't act like you do with your players and their personalities and then turn around and complain about racial problems in America. It's hypocritical. Especially when your employees are all millionaires (or close to it).
I'm not trying to tie Kawhi to that situation, as Leonard and his uncle were/are assholes. But it's a player's league now, something guys like Nurse, Kerr, and others seem to have adopted to, but still appears to escape Pop's authoritarian nature. But carry on with the circle jerk about Becky. For the record, I like her, like how she coaches and adjusts in summer league, but when the time comes to replace Pop, I want it to go to the best qualified person to take up the reigns and coach our Spurs. Becky might be that person, but it also might be that Pop wants to break that barrier when there's other more qualified individuals out there.
It's dumb Trumper who're too embarrassed to admit their hero-god is a pedophile traitor who is sticking kids into kennels in concentration camps and the only thing he's done is make himself rich.
This is pretty racist, bro.
Imagine accusing pop of losing the fire the season his wife died after long illness.
So you're a cop, cool
