    All of you defending this kid, what are you going to say when others come out?
    Not a defense, just trying to unpack what are very serious allegations that will forever change a young man’s future.

    Again, I’m still trying to square is the patient/client relationship aspect. Without knowing more about the scope of her duties, it’s hard not to wonder at what point her professional duties to help mental health clients ends and her personal sensibilities start. Of course there is a line, to be super clear, but I suspect it’s a different line than say if this happened to other staff who where not expressly brought in to help with mental health issues, placed in a position of patient-client trust, can authorize medications for illness, etc.

    This seems weird. Exposing himself in a therapy session.
    Tony Soprano approves of this behavior

    Don Harris really dropped the ball. Buzbee said during the press conference, "it's not about the money." C'mon Don, every plaintiff and attorney in lawsuits says that for the altruistic angle.

    So that's great.
    Kings have had five top-5 draft picks since 2010, and as you know, a high pick is a guarantee of a successful future.
    We need to act in the same spirit.
    that's one of the dumbest sniffer takes period. The Spurs are not the Kings. Spurs have a better roster, better development program, better coaching staff, more future draft picks.

    Made clear is doing a lot of work here. She must have copies of those emails and I agree fully what she said really matter
    Honestly, the idea that a "respect in the workplace training" was the right response after an alleged sexual assault is odd to me. That to me, and honestly the wording earlier in the timeline, screams that this was much more subtle. That doesn't mean Primo wasn't doing intentionally, and in fact might be even worse in some ways, but it definitely doesn't strike me like a Louis CK type of situation.
    What has me been pondering is how Primo expose himself, if he pulled down his shorts or whip out his willy then the Spurs is really at fault for not doing more. However if he exposed himself in a more subtle way, it will be difficult for the Spurs to really pin him down. Maybe that is why they wanted to sit down both parties to clarify and make sure things won't happen again. However the Dr doesn't want to meet Primo again and wanted punishment meted to Primo which would be difficult to be on the Spurs without a solid evidence, which would land the Spurs in another different kind of law suit.
    Thus the best solution is for Primo and the Dr not to work again any more isn't it.

    the spurs also wouldnt have drafted Bagley over Doncic

    always funny when someone tries to use the extreme example when you can look at the Grizzlies and see how quickly they rebuilt themselves into an elite team

    Miles Bridges just got probation pleading no contest on felony domestic violence

    I don't think Primo has to worry about any jail if all he did was hang out his shorts a little or pitch a tent
    It’s not just about jail. If he even takes a plea deal, he’ll have to register as a sex offender everywhere he lives for the rest of his life.

    I don’t think the Spurs would have waived him if they didn’t have receipts for Minneapolis.

    When they didn’t rehire her they must not have known how bad this was? Same when they resigned Primo. If they had known about all of this, I would think the obvious smart move is to not fire her! If she had a job there likely would be no lawsuit, at least now.

    There's very good analysis above and in other threads.
    I have opinions that I have not seen on two issues.

    Prep-school allegations.
    I generally have a high tolerance of team biases by journalists. Bill Simmons bleeds Celtic green. Kevin Pelton leans toward SuperSonics and Storm, Amin Elhassan despises everything Spurs (ever since Horry hip-checked Nash).
    Timeline:
    Spurs draft Primo.
    Primo is waived with reports of flashing.
    Elhassan reports prep school activities about Primo, therefore the Spurs knew pre-draft.
    Bull . If Elhassan knew of Primo's prep school activities, then Elhassan would have trashed the Spurs immediately after the draft. "Character matters." Therefore Elhassan doesn't matter.

    Buzbee does what the client wants. It is plausible that Cauthen wants to change Spurs procedures and money is an afterthought. I can imagine Cauthen taking less money if other things happen, especially an apology.
    Why would Buzbee do that?
    Buzbee has gotten more #metwo advertising from this press conference than hundreds of Houston tv ads. It is plausible that Buzbee thinks the advertising might be worth not getting the big payout.
    If I was a bettor, then my money would be that they are seeking a significant amount of money.

    It will be interesting to know if Wright knew, what he knew and who he shared it with. If Primo was his guy maybe he was attempting to protect him. Curious to hear how the Spurs respond.

    So she was so offended after the first time and had 8 more incidents after? She apparently didnt mind continuing to meet. This whole thing is so weird. Each meeting Primo just flashed her randomly? What is going on? Why are we even having to discuss this crap about one of the highest picks we had in years. Get rid of this GM already. Could have had Danny Ainge, have peewee herman instead.

    I mean maybe they were in. Somehow nobody thinks that is a realistic scenario
