Shooting Be Damned: Spurs Add Juan Nunez, Harrison Ingram

Did someone say shooting?

I just can’t see them not picking up a veteran shooting wing. Surely to got.

[Mugen]

Im sure they'll pick up a shooter in Free Agency that gives them absolutely nothing on the defensive end tbh.

I like Castle. Especially with the assumption that the Spurs will surround him with shooters. But picking now 4 non-shooters in a row after Wemby is pretty damn frustrating.

When the spurs had the ability to draft someone they drafted players who can't shoot but when they have to go into free agency to compete with other teams for players they are going to sign or trade for players who can shoot

Pretty similar to round 1 tbh…

I personally am beyond thrilled with Castle and I don't see what's forgettable about that imho

Yeah, the first time I heard about the Wonderlic IQ test being one of the reason Knecht and Kolek dropped.

Man some weird drama about why Kolek dropped (he can't read) or why Flip dropped wtf is going on lol

With this roster, Wemby will lead the league in offensive rebounds.

Ingram can shoot

[Obstructed_View]

The worst part is that when the Spurs give up 155 points the coach says "We didn't make shots" then he passes up players who do. I know we missed out on the best shooter in the draft, but the second and third best shooters were available at 8 iirc.

Ingram can shoot

And he brought up the ball at Stanford, from what I heard. I'm unsure why he fell so far if that's the case.

Just based on expectations + still not addressing shooting just like in the 2nd round.

Agreed. Thought shooting would get addressed in the draft as well and surprised to see it not. Makes me wonder if additional moves are coming but I thought that when we didn't have a PG last year and then nope, we just really rolled with Jones, Point Sochan and Wesley (Graham) lol

Castle is is getting lost in the other moves of the day and that's a shame because it was a show yet the Spurs probably came away with a really nice piece in Castle that would've been widely celebrated otherwise

First thing that jumped out to me about him and I posted it right after he was drafted is that he looks slow as molasses. I knew nothing about his game before he was drafted but that was my first assessment. Evidently he's got some positives but if you're looking for an answer I'd start with his foot speed

Had no problems with trading 8 for what they got, but trading 35 for cash when Furphy was there for the taking was unforgivable imo.
