Miss Cleo rocked with that pervert too
Scoot is not new to us in Atlanta ( marietta ); respected bball heads here have dissected his game at nauseam so forgive me not wanting to regurgitate info to spurstalk keyboard GM’s. It’s on wax, I rock with scoot.

You were high on Primo.For me, like I’ve stated in another thread, I don’t view Scoot as a generational prospect. But he is the clear #2 pick in this draft. I’m not one to “believe the hype” and there have been plenty of players in the past similar to Scoot’s background that I flat out did NOT like as prospects before they were drafted. These include Jalen Green, which I said over and over, was like an untamed version of Dejounte Murray and people scoffed at that remark. I also was a “ No” on Shaedon Sharpe. I was also a no on Johnny Davis when 99% on this board were advocating for him (ironically enough we are supposed to listen to the same people’s advice on prospects today). I was right about Jalen Johnson being a bust. Soon, I’ll probably be right about Jabari Smith… Rockets fans are already calling him a bust. I called Josh Giddey, Franz Wagner, Jalen Williams rising in the draft before anyone else. Sure, I’ve got plenty of things wrong but I get more things right
ALL THAT TO SAY. I’m not one to just watch a highlight or two of any player. Scoot is the real deal from my observations and I will go into detail later when I’m on a computer.
Did I say I haven’t been wrong? Also, find my posts about Primo and you’ll realize my posts about him are mostly comments on a game to game basis highlighting his strengths and weaknesses. It doesn’t have to be all or nothing on player assessments.
Mrs. Body consistently has the worst takes of anyone on STmiserable
Wtf is this wrong on primo? The nba has had dozens of known sex pests.
Primo the player had skills to be a good player but was slow to evolve.. being waived effectively kills his career because he needed consistent playing time. Nothing about flashy changed his developments up to that point. Picks are like lottery tickets, you know you are going to lose . They call in the lottery buts it a lottery to buy lottery tickets. Primo just busted early.
Saying you prefer sengun is fine, but primo is still the right pick at the time.
Spurstalk gonna fail the tank if they think every lottery pick is going to stick
I was with you all the way until you said Primo was the right pick at the time.
Cuz I don't want to put Scoot Henderson's in my mouth? Weird flex but okay.Mrs. Body consistently has the worst takes of anyone on ST
If you are comparing Scoot to other greats sure, I have questions there too about “how great”. But compared to peers in this draft? His athletic build and abilities alone are what make him special from what I have seen. Guys like Amen Thompson are freak athletes but so far behind Scoot in a lot of areas already; Scoot is near that level of athlete but with already more advanced feel for the game.
So ya, I have not seen enough to say he’s a LeBron type prospect or whatever, but comparatively to who is there? Ya, he’s a lot to be excited about and his downside seems pretty capped at like an Eric Bledsoe
Spurs should draft scoot if they land #2 pick. No other options.
thats not how you use that, dumbass
He's obviously not "Spurs material", but by that narrow minded definition (which has repeatedly proven flawed in recent years), they'll be lucky to get another projected MVP or All-NBA caliber player this century.
It may be more subtle with Wembanyama, but despite being biracial and foreign, he doesn't exactly come off as a prototypical Spur either.
If they luck into 2 (yeah right), you take him and worry about whether he'll force his way out, in give or take a half decade, when that time comes. If push comes to shove, he should at least have better resale value than any other option available at 2 and in the meantime hopefully they'll have lucked into another at least All-Star caliber player.
Man lotta wokeness up in this !!!
If, after year three, you think he’s Bledsoe, you’ve got to trade him. You cannot pay a#2pick to be Eric Bledsoe. His year 4 contract would be eight figures.
How the did this thread turn into a gay porno?
Why the Bledsoe comparison?
Bledsoe was never highly projected like Scoot and was not even a lottery pick.
It's the silly season around ST....
If you don’t want to pay #2 money for a worst case Bledsoe, man, it’s gonna be even more brutal for #3 and a worse comp.
I love this board.
Wow! Some dudes in here are wild!!
Teams are starting to “get it”, jettisoning high picks like Bagley and Wiseman, who aren’t on the star track. Paying those guys would be the treadmill, clogging your cap for little return. You’ll know by year three.
I can buy into that... but does not sound like a compelling argument to Riot over a scenario where we traded Scoot for say, Whitmore + Black. Maybe I'm still missing something, but Scoot to me hasn't demonstrated those can't-miss qualities that make him a player you "must have". I get not picking someone over him because he's rated above those other players, but does he project so well that he is better than 2 prospects?
Debating about scoot is a moot point, he is not those guys.
You don’t know that yet, and won’t for three years. Can’t miss guys, do.
We shall see.
