Whoever said it first, I am just glad he's good. We needed this draft win.
The highest spurs pick outside of Victor turns out to be a good player. Nostradamus over here.This dude is quoting himself like he's a ing prophet or something.
he‘s always talking to himself on this forumThis dude is quoting himself like he's a ing prophet or something.
What I love most is his meleability going forward. We may get our starting PG (eg somehow getting our hands on Traore) and he can be a star wing. We may not get one and he will be our big-PG. ...all while doubling as our stopper.
Obviously you hear mehe‘s always talking to himself on this forumYou gotta get a hobby. Now if you want to do an audit on throwing at the wall, we can do it. I have quarter of the post you’ve made; make it make sense for us.
We have incompetent front office right? So why would the number 4 pick be a home run? You can’t have it both ways, pick a side big homie.
And now it’s your turn….. on second thought you being my personal clown is enough for nowThis dude is quoting himself like he's a ing prophet or something.
He's ahead of where Kawhi was his rookie year. Just need to develop that 3 point shot to go from starter-level prospect to star-level prospect.
,........do tell us more
If only Chip Engeland was still here...
He didn’t want to go through the rebuild. End of story.
I was wondering if that was why he left, so is that one of the main reason? At the time, I was thinking maybe he didn't want to stick around on a rebuilding team, and it wasn't because he didn't like it there anymore?
Link to that being the reason?
okc was 24-58 the year before he got there. This just seems like cope
Maybe he just wanted a change of scenary after 17 years.
And obviously they probably paid more.
No need to overthink it.
Castle's shot looks fundamentally solid, I'm not worried about it in the long run.
It will take a couple of years, but he should get there.
Dejounte was shooting floaters from 3pt line in his rookie year and look how good his shot became.
Darn, I thought he went there when they had a better record than that. Throw that theory away then.
Why? They were clearly an up and coming team, and we were a down and tanking team. Shai had just put up a 24/6/5 line, and they drafted Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren. Their bag of picks was also far superior to ours at that point.
Yeah, they very clearly were on a huge upswing. What, do we think Chip moved to bumfark Oklahoma to work with a non-championship caliber team?
My thoughts, precisely. I think Castle's shooting form looks better than Kawhi's as rookie.
Lots to be positive about with this rookie. If CP3 was not on the team, Castle would be our best passer. Pop has a penchant for developing defensive guards/wings which bodes well for the future.
My guess/hot take is that other than the classic professional consideration of being wooed and surely salary raised, Engeland didn't want to hang out on a daily basis with either old chunks of coals like Pop and Brett Brown or youngins
Regarding Chip Engelland's departure, money may have played a bigger role than the team's plight at the moment.
Pounding the Rock said a few years ago:
https://www.poundingtherock.com/2022...to-the-unknownA breakup caused by Engelland simply deciding to move on and look for other challenges would have been bittersweet but understandable. The reason for his departure as reported by ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, however, makes things more unsavory. Engelland apparently wanted to stay badly enough to try to secure a new deal with the Spurs, but the two sides couldn’t come to an agreement. The important question to ask is why that happened . . .
All signs point to frugality as the driving reason for the breakup, or at least a laser focus on the money aspect of things which has been pervasive recently with the Spurs. Some of the decisions, like looking for games in other cities even if it means giving up the home court advantage, are understandable coming from any small-market team. Reducing payroll and reportedly being hesitant about eventually having to max out Dejounte Murray is fully defensible from a basketball perspective since the team is rebuilding. Even letting Engelland leave, on its own, would not be too worrisome. However, all of those moves put together paint of picture of a franchise that is trying to reduce spending while increasing revenue as much as possible even if it comes at the expense of the on-court product. There’s no need to jump to conclusions about the owners’ commitment to winning in the long term just yet, but it’s something to monitor going forward.
Air Alamo seems to agree:
https://airalamo.com/posts/underrate...ding-into-2024It's worth noting that Engelland's exit stemmed from an inability to reach a contract agreement with the team, a regrettable cir stance that has had lasting repercussions. After such an impactful tenure, that deal needed to get done. His departure underscores the importance of elite coaching and highlights its far-reaching implications for a team's performance.
While we might like better sources, these are the sources we have, such that they are. (Unsurprisingly, the New York Times never weighed in.)

excuse me?
im also not sure how much a shooting coach is really concerned with the team's W/L record.
they want to be paid for their work and probably like having players receptive to their coaching
either way, nothing substantiates chip leaving because he wanted to avoid a rebuild or anything like that. weird to state it so confidently with the "end of story" as well
