    One question I have is with LMA heart issue is do you see him playing before he gets the Vaccine shot? If I am him I don’t know if I suit up until I get that shot since he might be able to get in a month or two.
    A month or two is maybe when frontline healthcare workers get the vaccine. If LMA gets priority as a healthy 35 year-old people should be rioting in the streets, this should go only to healthcare workers and people 65+ for a long time since they're the ones mostly dying from this. And when you get the vaccine aren't you still not fully protected until around 45 days after?

    Things to be excited about next season:

    1) Keldon in a featured role
    2) Vassell's impact as a rookie
    3) Samanic's development (if any)
    4) White's consistency as one of the team's best players
    5) Lonnie's new skill as an electrifying passer--he was the only one giving great passes to Poetl in the bubble. I sense great chemistry between these two.

    If I missed any, please feel free to post in this thread.
    All of the above. I almost didn't vote because I want all of them to occur

    agree. i'm holding out hope for crowder but based on the deals we're seeing so far i dont think the MLE will be enough. not sure who else is even out there. spurs may be better of looking at overseas talent tbh
    Spurs are right up against the tax bringing back a team that missed the playoffs. They’re not signing anyone else, except maybe one minimum contract for roster spot 15. It would have to be bare minimum, like maybe offering an NBA deal to Tre Jones, someone cheap.

    Non of that will happen with Pop at the wheel.

    We will see plenty of Forbes, Mills, hog all the minuets
    Man if that turns out to be the case I will explode. It’s just crazy that the obvious thing to do just escapes pop-a-Biden.

    Excited about the youth in general but mostly excited about what is hopefully a rapid improvement in defense.
    If Pop allows it!

    Young players to be able to learn on the job without fear of significant reprisal. It’s OK to lose and develop, it’s not OK to lose with vets at the helm who impede said progress. Just now Jeff G has put on Twitter an analytics model that suggests Patty was the best perimeter defender on the team last year. That kind of BS needs to stop.

    Here's a question:

    If only ONE of the poll options could occur, which one would you pick?

    Def luka for me. We need a pf and if luka can develop it would help a position of need.white,keldon,lonnie and vassell are rednundant playing the same position. Derozan and mills need to be moved to clear minutes for those young wings to blossom

    This. Luka being good would be a game changer. It would make our future from good to great. PF is the weakest link, so strengthening that position would make us solid across all positions.

    But how much worse would the team be without LMA / DMDR?

    I say not much. A difference in 4-5 draft spots, imho.

    I think if Keldon doesn't solidify into our top guy, we are screwed until we draft a top 5 guy. That's the important thing for me over anything else; seeing continued growth from Keldon.

    I worry that White and Lonnie don't have the mentality to push us where we need to go.

    Wasn't there a stretch of 5-10 games where DeMar was out and we lost all the games?

    Everything about them is exciting.

    They all should come in better than last year.
    Luka is an X-factor.

    Might be an unpopular opinion but I'm excited to see what Dejounte Murray can do without a minutes restriction and without stupidly having to compete against Derrick White for minutes instead of playing next to him. And, obviously, no more Forbes, no more Belinelli, the ascension of Keldon, Vassell's defense, what Walker can do with a true opportinuty, etc, etc.

    I thought that bag had already reached his ceiling, so didn't think there was anything left exciting for him. But I'll be glad to be proven wrong!

    Getting a better gauge on Johnson. I feel like I more or less have a handle on the level the rest of the youth top out at and if/where they'd slot on a good team. He's the one it feels like has a non zero chance of being a star.

    The other thing is, will they realize they collectively need to up their 3 point volume to make up for the departures of Forbes/Belinelli? Specifically, can Murray/Johnson shoot it at a high enough percentage/volume to garner some respect from defenses?

    If so, they could have the necessary 3 and D to maximize an Aldridge/DeRozan core.
