Starting to feel like SA should've gotten an additional second to take him. Boston had no business picking up that option.
won't be long before we're saying "O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?"

They shouldn’t have drafted him. Boston should have flipped the pick, kicking it down the road. They drafted a player who would be stuck behind Smart, Brown, and Tatum. There was no way he could develop.
Feels like it was more to the story.
He looks hopeless out there and disengaged.
This dude is invisible out there. It doesn't even seem like he wants to play basketball![]()
But but all those Boston assets!!!
Hoping they flip his expiring for a bigger contract and a small pick from a team in need of relief. Like Shatmat and a pick for Romeo
D White and J Rich are basically equal so it was still a nice trade. Langford always was a throw in.
There's no guarantee that anyone wanted that pick. Moreover, there were good players the Celtics could have drafted. They traded away Thybulle and drafted Williams. It's hindsight that Boston should've picked someone else, though it's not hindsight that Boston found themselves in a bind after not being able to get rid of their "warchest" of picks. They ended up pissing away a lot of them on bad players or on trades that netting other teams the better players (Thybulle, Bane are examples).
The Spurs can just take Shamet into cap space. They need to just cut Langford and not get rid of a better player who seems to care more.
Langford was outplayed by Khuse and that guy was cut. Doesn't seem to give a crap about playing well at all. With any luck/common sense Langford will be cut next. Next stop, somewhere in the China league with all those other washed up NBA players.
Where for art thou Romeo?
The Spurs were willing to cut Samanic. Langford's only value was in his contract for trade purposes, but with the Spurs not having used their cap space the roster spot is worth more.
Absolutely. I was referring to earlier when people busting nuts about that stretch where Ainge was ac ulating assets like crazy. Basically everyone was showering them with praise for that Tatum trade when, basically, all that move netted them was the extra pick that became Romeo (IIRC).
Youre right. I was just thinking about how the team could salvage some value from Romeo, but perhaps that’s too much to ask.
Bum is done. Get rid of him
He looked like he cared in the small bit I was able to catch tonight. He played better than Wieskamp ever has. I don't see a realistic path to him getting minutes or a role on the team right now, though. At least theoretically the team will always be interested in shooters.
He got 11 pts in 14 minutes, against Utah's 3rd stringers though. But Romeo pretty much kept the Spurs from Jazz last quarter come back.
Has he shown enough to get a 2nd look. But it's Romeo or KBD and right now KBD is ahead by a mile. Is there any chance the Spurs will keep Langford?
I don't see why the Spurs would keep Langford over KBD unless Romeo is a completely different player in practices. He's just worst at KBD than anything and would likely cost more to keep given his QO. I don't think Wieskamp has shown any reason to keep him, though. Like I'm getting to the point where I'd rather see the team keep 14 guys than keeping Wieskamp. But maybe he's also practicing really well and is on the cusp of a turnaround.
probably fade back to irrelevance bit at least hes showing signs of life here
Still pretty bummed we passed on Charles Bassey for Wieskamp. Not suggesting Bassey is lighting the world on fire, but at least he'd be a project worth developing at a position where we don't already have 5 other projects worth developing.
The Wieskamp contract is the head scratcher for me.
Only 500.00 guaranteed next season, easy to cut imo
But giving him guaranteed money > than his QO of 1.8mm for 2022-23 when he is possibly going to be cut is a tad strange. Can’t imagine he had a better offer away.
I’m not expecting much from Lil Weezy or Romeo for individual reasons. But Romeo is the obvious one to keep if he can play like that at least occasionally.
Just throwing on the wall but Langford might be good with getting waived, taking his 5mm guaranteed and looking for a better situation.
Got the sense he has never wanted to be here.
