NBA Playoffs here we come
With the draft now over and free agency around the corner what is you guys projected depth chart
i have:
murray/mills/tre
white/walker
dd/keldon/Vassell
lyles/gay/Luka
aldridge/poodle/Eubanks
I would love to see another four guard starting lineup but I just don’t think pop will do it
NBA Playoffs here we come
After watching video I wonder if vassell could start at small ball 4. He is more of a small forward than guard. Vassell should not be in Austin. If Trey or Lonnie don’t perform early Vassell could take their minutes.
I’m just not sure if throwing lyles out there is smart but that’s what I believe pop will do
Hopefully not. Otherwise this draft makes no sense
I was thinking more so
Murray. Mills. Jones
White. Vassell. Weatherspoon
Walker. Johnson
DeRozan. Gay. Samanic
Aldridge. Poeltl. Lyles
People leaving out Q are going to learn their mistake. Q got more playing time than Luka and that's with us being short on bigs in the bubble. Q plays great defense and runs plays effectively. He's better than y'all think.
pretending forbes wont play
Need to flip 2 bench guys like Rudy and Mills for a starting PF
Nah. That's setting him up for failure. The system is complicated. He has to know where to be and when. He's going to screw everything up if he doesn't know those things. We have a great system. It takes time to learn it. He needs development time to get there. Hope there is a G-League, but if not, that will hurt how soon he can play.
I expect Gay and Mills will find new homes before opening night and Weatherspoon makes the roster.
I was thinking the same. Maybe something like this:
BOS: Adams & Gay
OKC: Mills, Kanter, Pritchard, & 2024 SAS 2nd
SAS: Hayward
Murray. White. Jones
Walker. Vassell. Weatherspoon
DeRozan. Johnson.
Hayward. Lyles. Samanic
Aldridge. Poeltl.
OKC can even flip Mills for another 2nd from the Warriors.
We are better positioned than you guys think; options are abound.. Patience.......
I'd be surprised if any All Star wants to be traded to San Antonio right now. Hayward is on a one year. I think Atlanta, New York, and Golden State are the most likely options for Hayward.
Your idea of Adams and Gay to Boston is smart.
Yes please
Love to see DeRozan consuming minutes of quality young guys so that the spurs cruise to a 10th place finish
Wonder if going after Julius Randle is possible now that they have Toppin. Or maybe S. Adams now that they have Horford
not bad imo
NYK just released Portis, Payton, Gibson. I believe they have lots of room now.
I've come to accept DeRozan playing this third year in San Antonio as long as it's his last one, and the front office doesn't threaten the fans with an extension.
If this guy Popovich is still here next year then no question the two old vets will have to be on the roster.
I'd still like to see Mills on the roster for his locker room presence and being the last link to 2014.
Assuming Forbes and Belinelli are out (we should be so lucky), I think the old man goes with:
PG - Murray
SG - Walker
SF - DeRozan
PF - Lyles
C - Aldridge
2nd team
PG - White
SG - Mills
SF - Johnson
PF - Gay
C - Poetle
3rd team
PG - Jones or Witherspoon (whoever makes roster)
SG - Vassell
SF - Samanic
PF - Metu
C - Eubanks
Definitely should be able to vie for the play-in slots (6th seed ceiling).
I don’t think Metu will be back but your pretty much spot on every where else.
it's impossible to know at this point but let's assume the worst with no major roster changes, spurs basically run it back
without Beli/Forbes and if Pop plays a lineup that makes sense:
White/Murray/Weatherspoon/Jones
DeRozan/Walker/Mills
Johnson/Vassell
Lyles/Gay/Samanic
Aldridge/Poeltl/Eubanks
what sadly probably will happen because we all know Spurs are predictable:
Murray/White/Weatherspoon
Forbes/Mills/Vassell
DeRozan/Walker/Johnson
Lyles/Gay/Samanic
Aldridge/Poeltl/Eubanks
this would be horrible putting keldon at the end of the bench and Lonnie getting 12 mpg at best
I think most of the Knicks players are available.
