All this talk gets me ing nervous man like they're going to piss away this incredible bit of fortune that just fell in their laps
God I'm gonna be pissed if they trade down unless they uncover some obvious red flag like Ben Simmons lack of compe iveness or a nerve issue like wrecked Markelle Fultz's jumper.

I don't believe the Spurs are stupid enough unlike many of their fanbase in here to piss the fortunate luck to have a chance to add Harper.
Isn’t the amico guy like never right?
I mean who's to say that Harper is the right pick?
I think the Spurs want Knueppel or Maluach who both fit important needs and will try to trade down
If they fail, they'll pick Harper and one of him Castle or Fox will be traded in the next year
I will. I'll say Harper is the right pick.
You don’t ‘need’ draft when god drops a #2 pick in your lap. Never pass on high talent for mediocre need fillers.
Let's trust PATFO.
I think it is reasonable to say that Spurs are quite conservative in nature during trades and draft. No crazy wild trades at all. As for draft, Spurs did took gamble on international players in last 20+ years. But that is also because they did their homework and due diligence, studying international prospects and realizing that they can play in the NBA.
Spurs will definitely draft Harper. Chill guys
If Quickley "doesn't fit" the roster as a less expensive replacement for Fox, how does Fox fit the roster? They're nearly the exact same size, and Quickley has a better career BPM and WS/48, and is younger.
yea what a stupid quote from him.
‘I’m right even if I’m not’ vibes. The worst kind of a hack. Spurs may or may not trade 2. Amico doesn’t know either way.
Fox isn't going anywhere and if we have Fox, Quickley is redundant.
Talent is talent
You misread the original post... the scenario specifically says "if there's also a deal in place where Fox is traded for Trey Murphy lll + a FRP." I would never want two 6'3" guards starting in the back court together.
I think his point is that it’s a ridiculous scenario and not worth entertaining. They’re not going to trade FOR Fox, and then trade him four months later.
If they pick and keep Harper, then I think in 3-4 years when the pay crunch hits, they’ll move Fox, but both the league and the Spurs will look very different at that point in time.
His reply specifically said Quickley would be redundant in the back court with Fox, so it was a simple misread. The original post was a response to SpursBill's question about who was the worst player we'd accept in a trade for #2... my response was Evan Mobley, and then I entertained the idea of what two players I would consider. It's just an entertaining exercise in response to that question, not a serious proposal.
Really hope the Spurs don’t this up and do something stupid…

Lol. I don't see what the Spurs could possibly want from the Sixers in any trade scenario so this is very likely a nothing-burger but still funny to see.
Yeah, it doesn’t really make sense from all perspectives. Harper isn’t really a good fit for Philly either, and would probably have even fewer opportunities there next to Maxey/PG/Embiid than he’d have in SA. Philly also doesn’t have any clear high level starters that would make sense for us.
Think we’re just getting to the point in the draft cycle where there are non-stop smokescreens. Just hard to see how Philly/SA find any deal that makes sense.
Suns asking price for KD is too high so we turned our attention to Playoff P.
Spurs trying to move up from 14 makes more sense. Wonder if it's Knueppel they're targeting tbh. Or who else it may be.
Wouldn’t be the 1st time Daryl Morey absolutely fleeced the Spurs. See Luis Scola
