**The Official 2025 NBA Draft Day Thread**

[Degoat]

Ehhhh because of NIL the 2nd rounder prospects blow tbh

[Ariel]

LOL Absolutely predictable. Spurs don't value SRPs, even ones high in the draft (though there is a fair statement to say where you pick in the second round may not matter... the second round acts more as a pseudo free agency than it does a true draft).

This isn't a criticism, just an acknowledgement of fact.

Spurs are one of the worst 2nd round drafting teams in the league, keeping their stash is a better strategy than taking another Nuñez

[Mugen]

Gonna dip out of this thread to avoid spoilers. Back to complain in a few hours tbh.

[Dverde]

Why are we never using second round picks these days? Didn't the Spurs draft Tre Jones as a second rounder

They used one for Nunez last year.

[objective]

Broke Spurs can't even build a stadium without begging taxpayers, can't even pay their own share without getting cash from Indiana who is themselves notorious for being broke. Sad, NepoHolts just going to turn that Pacer money over to Trump PACs instead of helping the team.

[CGD]

As if there weren't enough red flags already tbh.

With those colors? Going to the Jazz. Book it.

[Knoxxx]

Let’s ace this draft folks!!! No pun intended…

[Mr. Body]

Odd to trade out before the draft even starts. Seems like they know what they're going to do -- whether keeping, trading out, or whatever.

[objective]

Do not want Essengue or Newell

So that's probably who they take at 14

They both have that specific lack of skill like Samanic that the Spurs seem to enjoy

First draft pick trade of the night: The San Antonio Spurs are trading the No. 38 pick in tonight's NBA draft to the Indiana Pacers for a future second-round pick and cash, sources tell ESPN.

Kaaangz 2030 SRP. Good piece of business tbh.

[100%duncan]

Starts in 4 minutes?

[scott]

if this is true, we ought to see them be aggressive in trading SRPs for players (like john collins)

If we did that... where will we get cash from? Holt Jr probably uses this SRP cash for his political contributions.

No arguments from me there... I just wish we'd get serious about the second round (as in doing a better job scouting and picking there). Second round has been gold for a few teams (that aren't us)

Will probably convey at #33... just think of how much cash and 2038 SRPs we'll be able to flip it for

[heyheymymy]

Hopefully a toast tonight to the beginning of a new era in Spurs basketball

We got Wemby
Now we have Castle and Fox
Mitch takes the torch
Tonight we seek to add Harper

It's a fresh start with a ton of potential. Here's to the New Era Spurs

Tomorrow Comes Today

[objective]

Spurs: spend years of rebuilding focused on using caproom mainly to ac ulate 10+ extra second round picks

Also Spurs: "Second round picks suck ass, who needs 'em?"

[heyheymymy]

lol people were booing the thunder champ mention

[heyheymymy]

lol now people are booing the mavs when mentioned they were on the clock with number 1 pick

[Spurs Homer]

[timtonymanu]

Wonder who Dallas will pick here

[heyheymymy]

[LeBowen]

Look at that ing re smiling as if his competence got them Flagg.

[BatManu20]

Nico Collins has a really punchable face.

[mikec]

I want to pet Nico on the head.

[LeBowen]

No spoiler tweets from Sham, EPSN with the draft monopoly, tbh.
