We've chased stars before. It typically doesn't end well.
Everybody needs a star or at least 3 stars nowadays to contend. But the author is saying what everybody here in ST already knows. Spurs are not big on trading for one, but would rather groom their players to be one. Even when they traded George Hill. It was for the rights to draft Kawhi, and still it was not a sure deal. Some here would disagree, Spurs had to mold Kawhi to the star player that he became. It’s frustrating somewhat as a fan when you wish the PATFO would just take a big swing at trading Simmons for example, or last Summer, offering for Collins, or taking a risk on drafting Jalen Johnson. Yet time and again, after the dust settles, their moves make more sense. Primo seems to be a great pick now, and why risk trading down the pick if you know who you really want and some other team might steal? I advocated trading Murray, and Co, for Simmons earlier the season. Heck, Murray is proving to be much much more. Doing a bid war on Collins? when the same player might be heading our way anyway (hopefully). Yes Spurs, like everybody else, needs a Star. It’s just the Spurs way is not like everybody else

The "Spurs Way" that started with Timmy Dunks and ended with Zaza....Yes Spurs, like everybody else, needs a Star. It’s just the Spurs way is not like everybody else
is over.
No one has the magical answer but short of getting another ping pong ball bounce the idea that "We'll grow our own just like before" is gonzo.
Currently tied for 6th worst record and could easily descend to 5th.
The other 4 we are not going to out-tank even with Grandpa Senile still driving the car.
Primo is a total score. Someone in the Spurs scouting dept knows what the they are doing.
Can pick #5 get us another score? I like the track record.
I think that’s the general idea. I think they like what they see in Primo. DJM has improved beyond expectations. Vassell could be a good piece, a big cap space, assets to trade, tank this year to get a top 5, or maybe top 3 if they see somebody they like, and probably explains the horrific loss last night. Pop doesn’t care about these pundits. They just do what they do, the Spurs way.
yeah the Spurs way is to play 4 years without a capable power forward on the roster. Makes senseEverybody needs a star or at least 3 stars nowadays to contend.

Basketball has become position-less. Spurs basketball has become height-less. Coach Pop is always one step ahead.yeah the Spurs way is to play 4 years without a capable power forward on the roster. Makes sense
