Tyler Kolek looks slow. How is that for analysis
Excellent analysis. Very worth while.

Just load the roster with a whole bunch of athletically challenged below the rim slow white players. See how far this team goes with those type of players in the rotation.
Spurs are already behind many other teams with enough players who can't create their own shots to break down a defense.
There is no one in the rotation who can break down a half court defense, that's why they pull up on a fast break and take a 3 point shot instead of finishing at the rim. Wesley is the only one with speed on a fast break on the team.
The February 6th game where he played 33 minutes and had 3 rebounds, 2 assist and 5 points, against a decent team Butler
It's logical you think that because I didn't give all the information. When Holt was in France, he gave that interview to L'Equipe:
What are Spurs looking for in France?
My job is to represent our family, our company and its investors, as well as, on behalf of our organization, our vision for its management, future and growth. Me and my sister are the fourth generation to lead this business, thatincludes energy, construction, mines, industry… The Spurs have a heritage linked to international basketball, where they were pioneers, notably through Gregg and RC Buford. This influence spreads to the world, notably via Manu Ginobili in Argentina, Tony Parker in France… With the arrival of Victor, but not only because of that, we have decided to increase our physical presence and our investments here.
With who were you able to work? PSG? Other en ies?
I can't reveal that, but there are a lot interest. We are here to soak up the Parisian, French culture and look at these opportunities. Meet companies allow us to see where we could generate value. Mutual benefit can be huge. What we have in hand with Victor is the opportunity of a lifetime.
So:
- It's the second time in 4 months that Holt travel to France.
- Spurs are looking to strengthen their investor group, just look at their recent moves with Sixth Street, Dell...
- Qatar has a strong interest in Basketball. They will host the 2027 World Cup and are already a minority owner of the Washington Wizards.
- I don't think it's random that the journalist is talking about PSG, he might have heard some rumors.
Am I speculating? Yes, I am.
Is it some borderline conspiracy speculation? I don't think so.
He was at that game with Claudio Crippa, who is Spurs director of international scouting. I think Holt was there mostly to know him and his job better. Scouting in Europe isn't exactly like in NCCA because scouts haven't the same access to players.
Damn I hope we aren't trying to get Qatar as an investor. Their human rights record isn't something I want part of my hometown team.
Nice cliché scott
It's 2024
No kidding. them.
It's hard to generalize. Nikola Jokic is an athletically challenged below the rim slow white player and he's probably the best basketball player on the planet.
Cody Williams is probably the least athletic player on that list. rascal is just racist.

Maybe rascal can enlighten us with his list of highly athletic top prospects in this draft.
I’ll be sure to provide your updated strategy to the FO
yeah the human rights situation in the USA is way better. I mean the murder rate is only 20 times higher and the incarceration rate 9 times. Not even mentioning drugs etc.
Exactly! Thanks for right wing gun nuts and the prison pipeline started by Nixon putting tons of black people in prison for non-violent drug offenses.yeah the human rights situation in the USA is way better. I mean the murder rate is only 20 times higher and the prison rate 9 times. Not even mentioning drugs etc.
That's very vague and I don't see why Holt would meet with PSG, which is not an investment company or hedge fund, but another sport club. If Holt would like to meet with Qatar investors, he would meet with Qatar companies or princes, not PSG, who are dealing with their own sport club issues, and who by the way recently sold minority stake to... an US firm, "Arctos Partners", notably to help fund...their new arena.
so yes, sorry Bruno but that's pure specualtion. I mean Holt may have met PSG , just to see how it goes as far as running a club in France, but not for collaboration. PSG is not a firm but a sport club.
And for what it's worth, Qatar or saudi Arabia are investing in sport for "sport washing". they buy big clubs or try to create their own stuff (like that LIV stuff in golf or the saudian football league)... Not just for the sake of investing. If they could buy the Lakers tomorrow, they certainly would consider the opportunity, but they have no business funding an arena in SA.

Let me know when you have anything worthwhile to say.
That's not vague so give him the point and we move on lol
the sure thing is that he did not came to france especially for risacher
Lol did he say who he met? No, so yes tha is VERY vague.. Bruno's main pont, that lies on nothing other than Qatar owning PSG, was that that could be to talk with with Qatari to fund a new arena which just doesn't make sense (no offense to bruno) and is really extraplolating out of nothing...
anyway, I find interesting that Holt is mentioning the formidable opportunities Wemby offers, at a time where the interest for those spurs and Wemby ran out of steam after the incredible attention and excitment his arrival generated, with all that losing and sucking, while Pop explains us we should be ready to suck like that for a while... Just look how thin game threads have become on ST. They showered everyone's enthusiasm with iced water.
Wemby or not, somebody explains Holt they're not gonna make that much business as NBA bottom feeders. This isn't the Lakers and they're making Wemby pass for a loser who can't make his team win... Not good for business, people like winners... Peple have stooped staying up at night to watch Wemby's game live in France. And you may not want to come in Paris next year over there and get blown by 20 twice unless you want to hear 15K fans boo you...
America may have it’s problems, but none of them compare to the fundamental disregard for human rights.yeah the human rights situation in the USA is way better. I mean the murder rate is only 20 times higher and the incarceration rate 9 times. Not even mentioning drugs etc.
I say this, recognizing that there is a faction of the Republican Party for whom this sounds like a wet dream: https://www.hrw.org/world-report/202...chapters/qatar
What’s the cliche? https://www.hrw.org/world-report/202...chapters/qatarNice cliché scott
It's 2024
All this woke judgemental at ude vs Qatar is as much funny than pathetic
Qatar is a little player vs USA UK France etc (the most vocal about it btw)
Some ppl need to learn the histoy of their country and what they still curently do in the world...

CIA - MI6 - DGSE
Qatar is a US ally. The CIA is MUCH more inclined to cover up the human right's abuses of its allies than to expose them. Don't accuse people to not knowing the US's history if you don't understand it yourself.
……. *whispers* that sounds like Kawhi.
