    Trade a huge bag for the #2 pick, then take Scoot #1 and Wemby #2. Just to be s about it.

    Not at the same level as OKC (Presti) or Jazz (Ainge) when it comes to bargaining but it's quality over quan y. Spurs got their target, a generational talent in the draft while OKC and Jazz future pick/s are still unknown which is the same with Spurs. Sure ton of assets are nice but for me, at some point a team will be forced to sell it cheap due to saturation (this past season shows it in the trade deadline) since it'll be complicated for them to keep those once they'll sign the player/s being drafted but it would help tho in getting an immediate star or big name by trading picks.

    So yes, they did a fine job recently (started with Derozan trade) considering they did a poor job during Kawhi trade. Although they got a setback by drafting Primo but to be fair, after Primo the best (and a lot expected the Spurs to be drafted) was only Sengun. Sengun while he's decent statistically but I'm not sure if he's the type of player you would include along the way in contending but won't hurt having him by converting him to another asset/s so still better than nothing.

    man i kinda hate winning the lottery because it makes spursfans think like winning is destiny. Anytime OTHER than winning the lottery to draft a wemby or lebron you'd take two late prime all stars and roll your chances. it's not set in stone that derozan couldn't learn to shoot or that LMA would have a wonky emo heart, they are both great players that didn't reach the HOF level spursfans expect.

    Also it isn't a mark against the Front Office that they preferred a first round fodder level over tanking if thats what they wanted. If you wanted tanking that's your opinion but there were a lot of drafts between kawhi and wemby.

    I think the FO failed to pivot after the Kawhi backstabbing because they didn’t want it to set the franchise back to zero. Up until Nephew screwed us the FO had done everything required to keep the dynasty going for another 5+ years. It’s easy to say in retrospect that they should have tanked then, because it’s obvious now. But they probably figured it was worth finding out whether Pop could weave magic with the roster they had left. You can also argue that the fan base would have been in open revolt to go from le contender to tanking in just over a year. The run through mediocrity certainly lasted too long after that though. We’re lucky as to tank once and get a potential superstar.

    They did it right. If they had tanked earlier, we wouldn’t have Wemby. Things workout the way they’re supposed to.

    The Spurs haven't been in mediocrity for very long. They really weren't bad for too long. Other franchises have been stuck in mediocrity for much longer.

    It's very surprising how the fans bailed so quickly on the Spurs when they went into their rebuild.

    Spur fans can't support a loser as long as other franchises have so the idea that they are such great fans doesn't hold up.

    The Spurs tried to remain compe ive while developing young players, who they flipped for assets when they could. It worked out because these players learned how to play basketball instead of being losers. White and Murray wouldn't have gotten them anything if they were playing on fifteen win teams because they would have kissing mentalities and no skills.

    If Trump was an old black man, would those same followers still be acting so “Patriotic”? I think not…. At some point people gotta cut the BS!
