    OMG, this place would melt if they pick another guard.
    I agree. But I would prefer a guard with skills over a big man who can’t stay on the floor. Ideally, they should pick a forward, but I’m expecting to be let down.

    With Davis going to the Lakers, you kind of have to draft Claxton now so we can have someone match up with Davis in the future. Then with the other pick to draft someone to match up with LeBron / Kawhi since Kawhi will probably be on the Lakers too.

    19th Claxton
    29th Bazley

    Davis will eat Claxton alive - both physically and mentally.

    Im not so sure. Claxton has a +2" standing reach over Davis and his defense reminds me a lot of Davis. I think its a good matchup between those two. Claxton just needs to get a lot stronger.

    Davis has been in the league for 7 years - much experienced and stronger. Claxton is an upcoming rookie. I doubt he can do on Davis. Maybe in a few years but not now.

    Remember when Boris is schooling Draymond in the post back in 2013.

    Guarding Davis is Poeltl's job anyway. You draft Claxton if you think he's BPA. You don't worry about what other teams are doing right now. If anything, getting Davis out of the division was a good thing for the Spurs. The SW division already had enough talent as it was.

    Well yeah, i wrote my posts based off a year or two from now when Claxton has more strength and is tapping into his potential. Not saying hes gonna hold his own just yet against him this coming year. Maybe show flashes of it though for 3 minutes at a time.

    Tbh I thought the same thing would not mind your two picks if Bazley head is on straight.

    Atlanta really like him and his potential to play a Draymond Green role for them as a defensive playmaking big, so he's not gonna be there after #17

    Mavs with Porzingus, Denver has yoke-its that we couldnt stop, Lakers with AD. We probably need a tool in the shed to deal with these cats so im good with a center at 29

    Tankathon has the Spurs drafting Keldon Johnson at 19 and Claxton at 29.

    Not bad.

    If the Spurs work with this guy, his potential is off the roof. Biggest potential alongside Bol Bol (insane shooting for his size), Bazley (point forward with great size and skills), and Roby (defensive wing/pf with great size and mobility).

    I read on here he’s father is from the Virgin Islands. It would be amazing to have TD mentor this kid up. He appears to be a project, but definitely see potential.

    I like this guy and Bazley soo much. Who do u take first and hope last till 29? U might only get one of them. Speaking off of potential. Can Claxton play SF ala Giannas?

    ^I'd say Bazely is much more likely to fall to 29 than Claxton.

    I doubt it. Bazley is in Detroit today per his instagram for his third workout. Last i checked, they only have a 1st round pick...15th.

    Dang... those highlights are nutty. Seems to have DPOY potential in the right situation. Reminds me of Ben Wallace. Does he Rim run or do anything on offense? With him, white and Murray that would be a tough defense to score on.

    His offense is whats most appealing to me. Plays like Giannis with how he drives to the hoop. Only has one move right now though with the turnaround J.

    Which is why we should draft this dude. Imagine our guards playing great man to man D then if they even try to get inside they get their ass blocked by Claxton

    Will he ever be a good 1 on 1 player of the dribble?
