    As I've been saying they would if these allegations are true. 3 separate situations that are known. And there will be more, make no mistake.

    Spurs are now just like every other franchise and thats one reason I always respected them that they did things the right way. Now thats gone.
    I never want to hear about "class" and "Spurs material" anymore.

    I want BWrong fired for basketball reasons so I wouldn't lose sleep if he had to fall on the sword...

    But if this is really the extent of their case then I'm not sure if much will come out of this....

    They'd need other women to step forward IMO and I think Buzbee would have alluded to that if that's something they had in their back pocket but he didn't. Could always change but that didn't seem anywhere as strong as the case against Watson tbh, not even in the same stratosphere.
    Could you please enlighten us with the basketball reasons why good ol’ B Wright should be fired?

    Totally disagree. Theyve already been tried and convictedin the press. 3 separate instances, with undoubtedly more coming?
    nah, everyone knows Buzbee is a sleazy attorney and most of his conference was outlining hearsay and rumor. not saying Primo isnt a freak that pulled his out but Spurs franchise isnt going to suffer much from this other than Wright probably getting canned over it

    ok, the argument, "they sidleined me " is a lot like "we took steps to prevent a reprisal of the incident"

    To be clear the Spurs never said they released Primo because hr was exposing himself. That's what the media found out was a thing that happened, but even they only talk about sequence and not causality.

    That said, it's also possible for the Spurs to have been justified in not feeling they could release Primo the first time but felt justified this most recent time because they found concrete evidence.
    What about the 2nd time (as we know now, though there could be more) in Vegas?

    why would buzbee try to protect pop?
    Its a settlement strategy. The price is X to get Pop off the hook. That's what they are REALLY negotiating as we speak.

    They are trying to get the Spurs by the balls. How much does Peter Holt Jr. love his grandpa?

    If that number isn't high enough, we drag Pop into this . How much does his legacy matter?

    write is not leaving unless he did something dumb. You have HR and legal for this . If he notified them , then they will fall on the sword. The only big no no would be if wright or someone ignored the demands of therapist and legar/HR to say keep it under wraps and pay her off. keep it under wraps and pay off is normal and legal if it's what the parties want. PAfto must be dumb and in control to really get canned at trial.

    Not to rush to judgment, as you can allege anything against anyone, but the question is what is the proof. Again, if there is only one case in Bexar County and the office visit is sketchy, then maybe they don't have the proof. What if it was a partial exposure? There could be mitigating factors. So no slam dunk just because you sue.

    Now, if there are many allegations in Bexar County, and worst case scenario, cases within the Spurs organization, then this is a big problem and the Spurs should settle ASAP. The press conference today was the lawyer hoping that more people come forward and if it is an addictive behavior, meaning Primo is having judgment and self control issues, then there will be a lot of women that will come forward. Of course, even that has issues because coming forward also means a chance for a payment and that means there is an incentive to stretch the truth.

    But make no mistake, a clinical psychologist is going to be a strong witness against Primo.

    Basketball reasons- Well he guaranteed a contract for the guy after he was aware that he had exposed himself twice... incompetence justifies his firing on its own merit.

    I have a feeling Shams is off the Spurs Christmas list after this one. I never heard nine times in the presser. That’s much worse if true.

    3 separate situations reported by whom?
    With the Dr. in December. In Vegas with someone, presumably hotel staff in June, and again last week in Minnesota with hotel staff.

    3 separate events, allegedly with Dr Cauthen it happened 9? times. That's precedent.

    We don't know anything about a second time. I do believe it could have happened. I don't remember if Primo was benched or not. But it's important to know not only do we not know, but the accuser doesn't know either. That's their belief from a rumor.

    He got that from the written release, not the presser.

    The Spurs now have some specific questions to answer.

    Was there an incident in Las Vegas?

    Ditto Minneapolis?

    Any others?

    When the doctor informed the team of what had happened, whose responsibility was it to do something, and what did they do?

    Is it true that Pop was informed?

    Why, specifically, was Primo waived?

    To list a few.

    I dont know why others aren't getting this point. This is the ballgame. And youd think at some point Pop and BW discussed his extension and BW must have informed Pop hey just FYI, before we do, this kid likes to show his junk to unsuspecting ladies on the regular. Strains credulity that Pop didnt know.
