I don't think it's that anyone thinks so highly of Murray, it's more than likely people think even less of Forbes and Paddy who could only dream about being a first round draft pick.
We are clearly not going to be as dangerous without Murray no matter how you want to spin it. Sure, the Spurs have shown the ability to get a good return on late first round picks but it doesn't mean they wouldn't have a better chance to get a star player at a higher draft slot. Now if they got a combination of a young prospect with star potential and draft picks, why not give up Aldridge. Plus, everything had to break our way to be elite but short of the Warriors this year and Murray was going to be the head of that snake with his toughness and tenacity. Now it's left to Aldridge & DeRozan who have disappeared in big moments. I hope at least Walker is able to come back and crack the rotation. He showed although small sample size, he has the tools to be a star.
Rest is for the regular season, especially nationally televised games.
Could he be ready for the playoff?
murray strikes me as the kind of kid that if he can possibly get healthy enough to play, he'll push to do so
you think pop would let him advance a timetable though?
Neither Dejounte or Lonnie should play a second in this upcoming season tbh, but with this great medical staff who knows
You really should pay more attention then. Some people (a whole lot of people, actually) think Murray's in the top three most important players and a defensive star who was poised to make a leap on offense. They certainly think Forbes and Mills are worse, but they also think Murray is really good.
the news sucks.
Walker is supposed to be out two months. Why the would he not play?Neither Dejounte or Lonnie should play a second in this upcoming season tbh, but with this great medical staff who knows

will be harder to the make the POs... forbes will definitely get more PT. hopefully pop won't have he and patty on the court at the same time... but i'm sure he will
You know how spurs fans are... With adversity comes the cliff jumping hot takes
Blossom has been waived. Something is up.
I'd probably take it real slow with a guy coming off two major knee injuries, plus I have a ton of faith in Bryn to hold it down...
Probably making room for Jimmy Butler. I think Eubanks and a 2026 3rd rd draft pick gets it done.
Standard time to recover from an acl tear is 9 months. That puts it in July, and that’s not being ready to play, it’s being able to practice and do “basketball activities.”
Yeah, the passage of time.
I don't think people are saying we're going to tank. I think people are saying we're going to legitimately lose. Imagine nuts Mills and Forbes out there face guarding Klay and Curry, or Lollard and McCollum, or even Rondo and Ball. Pretty sure Ball went off for career highs against those guys even last season lol
No matter how many long 2's DeRozan and Aldridge take and make, no way to make up for the chasm we have at PG
That was the kind of thinking that made Lebron walk.
People saying to trade Aldridge and DeRozan are certainly advocating tanking. And no, they'll be fine. This injury takes them from a dark-horse team to a team that would need like everyone else in the league to get injured to win, but they are still better than they were last year. If they lose Aldridge or DeRozan, then we can talk.
If people don't think Murray is in the top 3 important players on the team, you must be blind. Also, given his age, I put him number 1 on the list. His development is critical to this team's future success and this injury is a huge blow.
