    Great at ude. And he can do it too with his lateral quickness. Pop is training him quick on his feet

    I'm so impressed with Luka's defense. I honestly never saw that coming.
    He's suddenly a very exciting prospect for us now that we see what he can do on D. His offense will get there

    I never thought he was a bust, but I really thought he was a year or two away.

    I don't think even the most rabid Luka fan (does such a thing even exist yet?) would've predicted his jump in play before the season started. My guy just became a solid rotation player overnight or something, crazy to see unfold before our eyes

    All of a sudden Spurs are long with Luka and Diop! They can cover the ground quick, and with Vassell coming.. geez. Our 2nd unit could be Tre, Lonnie, Vassell, Diop and Luka. Run it!

    I’ll admit that I said he had one foot out of the league. I have to sign this.

    So, let‘s talk about drafting Luka instead of Brandon Clarke.

    I know he’s an NBA player but I wonder if he just got laid. Dude is transformed!

    Here comes everyone out of the cracks in the floorboards now acting like they were Luka true believers from the get go. He’s hustling his ass off. A massive switch was flipped. Big picture—great for Luka and the team. But this thread will likely get ridiculous.

    It's crazy that he makes us better already. That's just with his defense. Any hit shots will be gravy. This is wild.

    14-15 months on. The Progression is ridiculous. I feel very privileged to be a Spurs fan.

    So true! His defense is suddenly game changing. Players can’t really get by him. Even smaller players. He’s contesting everything.

    Same here. I also thought most of his value would be on offense. His defense has been a revelation.

    Some people learn things in steps and show incremental, steady improvement. Others take bits and pieces here and there, showing little progress until the "aha!" moment when they put it all together. Player development falls on that spectrum too, and perhaps we are witnessing Luka's "aha!" unfold before our very eyes.

    No loyalty contracts to the old vets in the offseason would be a start.

    Happy to see Luka play so well, but we all know the old man is going back to Aldridge and Gay after the all star break

    See you again at the start of the 21 - 22 season my Luka

    I wonder which young guy will be the first to earn a max contract...

    Heat of the moment says Luka

    Brain says Murray

    Underdog is Keldon (depending on if he works on his shot and dribble this offseason)

    imo Lonnie is one of the odd men out. I don't think the Spurs will want to pay him when it might jeopardize their ability to extend both Keldon and Luka. White is another potential "casualty", as in the Spurs might trade him in the last year of his contract or let him play it out and not seek to re-sign him. He will be 30 by then, and Murray will be up for his next contract at that point too.

    Not being able to keep all of your young players is one hidden downside of having extra picks and drafting really well. Having Murray and Poeltl on very team-friendly contracts mitigates that somewhat.

    Does re-signing White to another 17 mil contract hurt that much though? Unless he elevates his game to another level, I think his number will float around that figure for the duration of his career.

    Who the said I support Trump? I criticize all players and for you to take that as some sort of racism is ridiculous. If you think I'm front running, let's meet up and we'll see. Talk tough online, and don't be a pussy in real life.
    That was weird.
    Maybe that dude is tripping on some border shwag that was transported in a gasoline tank.
