are they sleeping on our big three of KJ, Vassell and Primo? National media never has love for the Spurs!!!
At the moment:
Primo, Vassell, Johnson, Sochan, and Poeltl
Jones, Branham, Richardson, McDermott, Collins
Wesley, Langford, KBD, Roby, Diop
Barlow, Hall
Full tank mode (after they trade Poeltl, McDermott, and J-Rich):
Primo, Vassell, Johnson, Sochan, and Collins
Jones, Wesley, Branham, Roby/KBD, Collins
Langford, Diop, and trade filler
Barlow, Hall
That full tank mode roster is scary bad. Hoping for it.
. They’re not going to start a ing 2Way. He is only allowed to play like 40 something games, per the CBA. They’ll start Zollins.
Including Dieng and Wieskamp, these 13 full roster players will average 22.9 years of age. Easily should be the youngest team in the league. If you took out 32 year old Dieng, age drops to 22.2.
This’ll feel like an NCAA team
Remove Jak and JRich and this team wouldn’t make the sweet 16 lol
As ridiculously bad as the roster looks, knowing the Spurs, they'll still be fighting for that 10 seed...
yea thats a roster
TBD has some potential...
its trash,with some potential
If you ing @ me again, I will poop on your door mat sporadically. For years.
Untapped potential
Though difficult to assess based on prior level of compe ion.

Here are the minutes projections I'm using for the 2022-23 season:
Keldon Johnson sas 76 31 2356
Jakob Poeltl sas 76 28 2128
Devin Vassell sas 76 28 2128
Tre Jones sas 76 28 2128
Doug McDermott sas 74 22 1628
Josh Primo sas 76 22 1672
Jeremy Sochan sas 77 22 1694
Zach Collins sas 50 18 900
Blake Wesley sas 77 15 1155
Malaki Branham sas 77 15 1148
Josh Richardson sas 75 12 900
Isaiah Roby sas 75 12 900
Romeo Langford sas 67 5 335
Gorgui Dieng sas 76 5 380
Joe Wieskamp sas 76 3 228
Keita Bates-Diop sas 74 0 0
Jordan Hall sas 77 0 0
^ Roby is going to see fair more than 12 mins a game.
Tre Jones, Graham, Wesley
Vassell, Brahnam, Cissoko
Keldon, McDermott, Champagnie
Sochan, Mamukelashvilli, Barlow
Wembanyama, Collins, Bassey
I don't know if I'm missing someone or adding someone that won't be here. How do you see the rotation? In which positions should we target a signing?
If I’m understanding the cap situation correctly the Spurs need to spend about 15ish million after assuming Jones get resigned for around 12m or so. This is to reach the salary cap floor, teams are now incentivized to reach it by day 1 of the regular season.
I’m a fan of going after a vet like Brook Lopez or Mason Plumlee for a 1+1 contract if it’s possible just to have the experience. Also because I’m not sure if relying on Mamu and Bassey for the entire season is realistic. I’m a big fan of Collins but I don’t think it would hurt to have an extra body to help out Wemby.
I think that’s the eventual starting 5 by the end of the (and the closing 5 before that), but folks think the Spurs will want to start Collins or another C along with him to absorb the hits. That, if true, in turn forces an interesting question about who starts at 3 between Keldon and Sochan. I don’t buy the Sochan at starting PG thing.
I think Lopez resigns with Milwaukee. Plumlee is interesting to me but I think he'll go to a sure playoff team.
I don't see any real answers for another big.
Drummond can take up space.
Yeah I wouldn’t mind Drummond to be honest if all other options fail. I just think having a veteran big is going to be so important. As it stands now Collins at 25 is the elder statesman.
I really hope they just play Wemby at the 5 so we can just start with our best players+Tre. We can just call Sochan the 5 so Wemby can do a Duncan and pretend he’s a 4. The alternatives of either putting Jeremy at the 1, or benching one of Jeremy and Keldon don’t seem that efficient.
Yeah ideally Wemby would just play the 5 but it seems like early in his career at least both the Spurs and Wemby want to have someone else take some of the blows. It really just depends on the matchups but I’m expecting the Spurs will sign or trade for another big at some point.
I think a veteran PG is more of a need than a C, tbh.
I would give up a 2nd rounder to OKC in exchange of taking on Bertans' contract + the rights to Micic.
You kill two birds with one stone: reach the cap floor and add a talented PG with experience (granted, not NBA experience).
