If this pick was all on rc and did not meet pop
Maybe he is gone
Yeah
Welp. If this dude plays bad defense at the NBA level like Formes, we don't know yet.
He doesn't seem to have been exposed at college.

Honestly don't think I miss any player drafted in the next 10-20 slots after him, except Sengun. Time will show whether the Spurs totally ed up by falling in love with this young guard and not taking the transformational big man.
Also somewhat amusing that the Rockets wound up with Scola and the Turkish player who plays at least in the post like Scola.
Just in time to sign with someone else as a free agent?

He definitely did not seem stoked. I don’t blame him, just surprised he was that transparent about it I guess.
Brian Wrights answers are very concerning:
Loong runway? Wtf does that even mean?
Of course the same old “we looked at all options and decided staying put…”. How convenient how SA always does all this due diligence and is so active but never can quite find a deal.
Not concerned about the logjam either huh? Ok.
Probably that by year 3 or 4 when Primo is ready most other players on the roster will likely be gone.
Btw are we sure someone didn't forge his birth day , so that he can be drafted at 14? Like the opposite Thon Maker
It’s fine to say youth has runway….except for when you’ve brought in vets and gave them minutes at the expense of the youth and now have a position jam and blocking them from getting the room they all need to develop too.
I do believe this. Amateurs get infatuated with certain players while guys like Ziaire Williams rise. I can believe Primo was rising among several teams. I just don't know if he was the best pick there.
Yeah it’s absolute BS.
You draft a PG last year who can’t get in the game. You basically start two PGs on your team. And now you draft another guard “who impressed you with their PG play?”
If Spurs don’t think that player morale takes a hit when you keep log jamming people together, they’re more out of touch with modern players than we thought.
Wish Primo well. No ill will here. But the BPA talk seems like utter garbage.
not trading down is comical inep ude. not taking sengun when this team is thirsty as for a big man with offensive firepower is embarrassing oversight.
I hope Cuz pans out and I certainly will not knock the kid. I'll be his biggest cheerleader. that said, with even a minimal amount of drafting prowess, they could have likely had both.
and to his point about not being concerned about a logjam, that may be the case, but his players most definitely are. see DJ's tweets.
LW, DW, DJ, DV, etc will all be struggling for good consistent minutes.
smdh. I just do not get this.
"Long Runway" = Needs 2+ years in the G league before he'll be worth a spot on the bench in the NBA...
Spurs refusing to “tank” and hurting their chances at a real future only to reach so hard with their best pick in 20 years. It’s infuriating
What makes everything worse is the Warriors got both Kuminga and Moody. Talk about 2 FO’s that are on totally different levels.
He’s so young he’s not on the same timeline as the others and he can already see some of them leave b4 then (ehem Lonnie).
I am actually impressed he was referred to as a PG. all of a sudden DJM face gets more context.
Okc did well too. Its drafting 101- scout then take bpa ,and draft for need but not sa. We have what 5/6 sg's fck it heres another. Its maddening. If we needed a guard with more playmaking skills we should of just drafted halliburton,tbh
It means the Spurs have accepted that they're in a full rebuild unless they're just really stupid.
Yup that's for a 2nd round pick, but not a lottery pick?? Nobody does a project on a lottery pick.
I like Primo. I'd sure would be ecstatic if Spurs were choosing at 29th, but 12????
Treadmill team drafting treadmill talent, with a front office that has treadmill ambitions/mentality.
Just say that he wasn’t the best pick there lol. You’ve been defending the Spurs a little too much to be honest. Very different approach in your posts.
