BPA
backup for kawhi
PG. It's not even close from my perspective.
Mills amd Corey???????/
Anything but a SF would do.
A somewhat high ceiling big or a 6th man would be great with the end of the Duncanobili era around the corner... With Manu playing in the World cup and Beli being Beli I'd probably put SG number 1...
Best Player Available
I was thinking the same thing, so many people find themselves screwed when they draft who they feel fills a position they lack (See Cleveland, Anthony Bennett)
I was trying to make this a poll, but I got sidetracked, now I'm going to seem like an attention a la the Yacht.

I disagree with that, you need playing time to develop a prospect, if you don't need him then there's no opening to give him minutes... And you still have needs that are not addressed... Looks at Otto Porter rotting on the bench in Washington cause they didn't draft for need at all...
Imo you trade up or down to get what you need...
backup slasher/playmaker for Manu
Porter isn't getting any playing time because he's not very good, lets not act as if the Wizards are some stacked team.
He was 14th in minutes played on the Wizards and only featured in 37 games. Dude's just garbage.
Power Forward with strength in defense/rebounding...
As last year showed, the Spurs need to have four players capable of playing PG during the regular season. If the Spurs can draft a combo-guard (in a good way), great. But they'll need one anyway, seeing as Mills may be gone this off-season and both Parker and Joseph can be gone the next.
Washington is stacked on the wings, with Beal being one of the best young two-guards in the league, Ariza being their best two-way player and Webster taking up the full MLE. Washington clearly didn't plan on playing Porter much this season, since they gave Webster big money before Porter even had a chance to play in camp.
True, although less so for draft and stash picks.
You're right. BPA is not supposed to be a passive strategy. It simply says that you should go with the top of your board at any given pick. So if you have a need at a position, you should move to whichever pick it takes for your board to have a need player at the top (provided you trade for good value).
Obviously, sometimes you can't move, so you have to decide how much better is the BPA from a player you need.
I am with Nono here. A PF that can defend and REBOUND !
I get your point.
Back up for whi tho theyd prolly stash this years draftees
New mock just got posted by the well connected Yahoo guys :

I like that mock a lot overall tbh, lots of picks feel "right"... Capela at 27 and Jordan Adams at 24 would make it possible for the Spurs to trade up for them...
Garrett Temple got twice as many minutes as Porter this year. If Porter isn't even good enough to take Temples minutes (which would have doubled his minutes per game) as a No.3 pick then he's a bust.
Athletic American black SF/PF. Knowing pop and RC though it'll be a draft n stash European undersized 2 guard.
I want a sf. A sf could potentially improve the team at full strength this year. A 4th pg if we have Parker, Mills, and Cojo doesn't do much. Obviously, we need a pg if we our going to lose Mills.
Well, they don't play the same position, so that's one reason. Also don't forget that the Wizards started off the season without a backup PG due to Eric Maynor busting. Before the All-Star break (meaning before Andre Miller went over at the trade deadline), Temple averaged 11.5 mpg. After the break, he averaged 2.5 mpg. In total, Temple played 62.5 minutes after the All-Star break, and Porter played 105. I don't see that comparison as a strong one.
