Yup. He is a serviceable big with a lot of upsides. Still very young, great defense. Need tonwork on hitting 9 footers and hook shots.

Jakob Poeltl led the Spurs in screen assists and points off screen assists against the Clippers and he only played 15mins. This guy was the 9th overall pick in 2016 and has the 3rd highest VORP from that draft behind Simmons and Siakam. 2nd highest BPM, and 6th most win shares.
What is the value of a backup/sometimes center. He hustles,competes, limited scorer, but still young. Maybe a Entes Kanter type contract, 2 years, 9.5 million.?
After he has 20 more good games we can talk.
He's an elite rim protector and low post defender. He doesn't just block some shots he alters a bunch and covers for the poor perimeter defenders we have all the time.
Sign him up. Pretty sure he can locked up on a relatively cheap contract.
But what is his price? Are the spurs simply going to let the market dictate and then lose out on him? That seems to be what happened to Jonathan Simmons and Kyle Anderson, and will likely be Bryn Forbes...wait he will be resigned for 4yrs/40 million.
If he decides to be a rim protector like last night every night, sure.
The market for big men is far softer these days than the market for wing players. Also, hindsight shows that the Spurs were right to let both of those players walk. Simmons is already out of the league.
Agreed. Don't wanna lose a decent backup like we did with Baynes and Boban. , I'd kill for Baynes right now as he's doing great in Phoenix. Can't believe some s around here preferred Errors over him.
Who’s better...Jakob or Christian Wood for the pistons?
Poodle will be lucky to get 4/5 mill at this rate
Purrcat should look hard in the direction of China.
Lol Elite rim protector....I'd rather have Christian Wood.
Thank god spurs pryed this stud away from tor for kawhi
He was considered a bust back when he was in Toronto. No idea why PATFO thought this loser would be an enticing building block.
Honestly at this point the only players that should be on the season next year are Murray, White, Samonic and Johnson. Perhaps tossing in Lyles, however otherwise; burn it down!

Look at the stats, before you write . Poeltl played the most minutes and nevertheless had the best (of bad) netrating of the Spurs. So this was on him? Get outta here, you losers.
poeltl -15
murray -32
white -38
Lyles -47
walker -57
eubanks -61
you really blame Poeltl?
btw: Drummond (and Griffin) had the worst netrating of the Pistons.

pau got one for cucking the spurs once in FA, and only 1yr service with the spurms, why not for poodle?
Drummond‘s average stats this season: 17/17
Today: 9/16
Drummond and Griffin had combined 19 points.
Poeltl is a tall sack of trash. Any player his size will outscore him, and outrebound him.
Update: I think Poeltl's value is actually going down. A big who is weak on the defensive boards, can't shoot and can't really defend out on the perimeter? How do you pay someone like that more than $3 million per year in today's NBA? If you have a non-shooting big, at the very least he has to be a beast on the defensive glass to warrant paying him.
Rather have kept Danny Green than gotten Jakob. Guy has regressed instead of developed
Good luck finding someone who outrebounds Drummond and makes up for the guards brain farts. These eye-test grades suck. Poeltl should be happy to leave this show after this season.
