this draft class is except wiseman, tank for him or a bust. Spurs missed chance to rebuild via drafting twice in a row. Now it will be harder to build a contender team. It will take much more time and effort.
Absolutely nothing if we don't get a top 10 pick or try to bring back Bertans or JaMychal Green. Harrell probably wants to get paid.
What, we're just gonna use Bird Rights on Marco and Forbes?

It's easy to say this in retrospect. But it would have been cool seeing Murray and Shai gilgeous backcourt
It's a FA year. All the more reason why the Spurs should be developing their own young players, and getting a good draft pick this next year.
ive been saying this since kawhis said he wants to be traded...
speaking of SGA, i would trade any two spurs for him.
all of them were free agents this offseason, ain't nothing left for the next one. Just gotta hope we change the coach so Keldon and Lonnie will get minutes. Otherwise Pop will resign Belinelli for another 4 years
At this moment of time resigning of Belli and Forbes are given, Spurs almost always re-sign their own FA unless some other paid them more than Spurs willing to, which I cannot foresee any other teams doing that. The other reason is if they decided not to sign with Spurs or wanted to retire, which again I believe not happening at this moment of time. So next year probably Spurs will lose DDR and sign their 1st rd pick and give Poeltl, Forbes and Belli a pay rise and maybe an extension to White.
team is dead for multiple years with the current roster/coach, tbh. No draft/single FA signing will save them from mediocrity
This is the second year in a row that we have played without a true SF. Our problem is not guard. Our problem is we need 2 to 3 players who are small forwards. We do not have even one.
Spurs put all their faith in Kawhi, and his backups were allowed to leave(Kyle Anderson, Jonathan Simmons). They got caught with no in house solution. Now the spurs have a plethora of guards and big forwards (Aldridge, Metu, Lyles, Samanic, Gay, Carroll). Possibly, they need to reevaluate their scouting dept because their was quite a few forwards they passed on in this pass draft and the Spurs cant afford to miss again. Personally hoping if the Spurs miss the playoffs, I hope they can get Jayden McDaniels, a 6'9 , 19 yr forward from Washington.
This guy might be available:

I've always thought Keldon was more of a 2/3 in the mold of "Green with handles" than a true forward?
This team has many issues. The no SF issue is a huge glaring one but still one of many
He’s a SG not a SF. You can play him at the 3 and he’s probably better suited to do that than the other spurs guards but he’s still not a true SF
IMO, Nwora and Brey are the 2 best true SFs in this draft but they can be had in the 20s. Would prefer we add a late 1st rd pick somehow to pick up one of these guys and then use our actual pick on best available talent.
Pop would never allow the growth in Shai.
They've got Keldon waiting. Even if there are other good SFs out there, it won't mean a thing without a coaching change.
Beli already said he wants to retire a Spur. We just gotta hope Flopovich is out. The sooner the better
Here is who the Spurs will draft:
https://news4sanantonio.com/sports/s...vs-deni-avdija
Just like Luka last year, its sitting right in front of our faces who they will draft.
really? You would play SG, K. Johnson at SF over SF, J. Nwora?
Comparison:
KJ:
6’6”, 6’9.25” wing span, 13.5ppg/5.9rpg, 38.1% 3pt%, 3rd best player on elite 8 team
Nwora:
6’7.5”, 6’10.5” wing span, 21.2ppg/7.5rpg, 43.9% 3pt%, best player on #3 team in country(will be #1 after Saturday’s game), pre-season ACC PoY (likely regular season ACC PoY)
obviously you’re en led to your opinion but I don’t understand it. Why not have both? And play KJ at SG and have Nwora at SF? We really need players at SF and KJ is not the answer there...at all.
We really need to get taller and more athletic being 6’6 - 6’8 n this league won’t cut it for SF anymore.
Dejounte/ White/ Quinndary
Keldon/ Lonnie/ Mills
Avdija/ Carroll
Samanic/ Lyles/ Metu
Poetl/ Eubanks
The future
Kawhi and George are your swingmen and they are way bigger compared to ours: Forbes and DeMar. Or even Keldon and Lonnie if we look forward to the future.
