Derrick White: Out 6-8 weeks

[Biggems]

Kawhi and his ass put a voodoo curse on our guys.

[kobyz]

at least 12 weeks!

Trade for Tony

[BackHome]

Well a lot of posters wanted a rebuild well here us go enjoy

I can only imagine how depressed DDR is going to be mid season when the Spurs are 10 games below .500 while the Craptors are fighting for the first seed. Might need to put him on a preemptive suicide watch and shut down his IG account to avoid his passive aggressive cryptic .

[BatManu20]

Make the call, RC.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

I think we'll see DDR running the offense. The PG position will just be another shooter on the floor. Forbes isn't capable of running the show.

[Hoops Czar]

Don't worry, Spurs still have Tony Parker... oh wait. Det Karma be a .

[DJR210]

time to tank for zion

[Russ]

Forbes is going to light it up, and become the next Curry. He is going to grab the starting PG job and never let it go.

Forbes has a high upside (very similar to the three that went down).

Forbes could be a breakout player this year -- the only good news out of all of this.

Step right up Bryn!

I read it is a plantar fascia tear. From what I have seen players have to deal with it almost all season. Can anyone confirm that even if he is back that he will be limited (in pain) for months after?

[Spurs9]

We want Jimmer.

What I know is that he's now out indefinitely with updates to be provided later. It takes a long time to heal anyways so... walker will be back sooner for sure. Don't expect White back for 2 months at least.

[ceperez]

Make the call, RC.

Did the Chinese season start already?

[spurraider21]

If Paul had any PG skills or at least really good lateral quickness, he could make some sense. He has the girth to check bigger players, so he could protect DeRozan there. At his best, he was a fine enough role-player. But he didn't seem to have the upside to make sense.

paul hasn't even shown he belongs on an NBA court let alone be a starting point guard

[RD2191]

WTF

[Chinook]

He didn't need to be a legit PG to start with DeRozan. Being a bigger Patrick Beverly would have been fine. We're talking about getting the team through a season here, not beating Golden State en route to a le.

All that Spurstalk karma is starting to kick in with some vengeance.

Darn. Didn't know that. Makes sense. I have a feeling Bryn will fill in pretty well until Walker comes back. And it will be exciting to see Walker probably get some minutes by ASB. But one more injury to the backcourt would be a disaster.

if he could get to that level he would probably be getting marcus smart money

[tesseractive]

Yes, but DeRozan and Gay are better offensive players. It may not balance out all the way, but I don't think the lack of depth will lead to as many early losses as some fear. Now come December (the team's worst historic month), we could start really seeing issues.

So we're looking at trying to win some games 120-118?

[Chinook]

It'll be closer to that, yes. But Pop's a good coach. He'll get guys in the right positions to limit the opposing team's three-point success.

[baseline bum]

Just shoot for the 8th seed.
