Feeling like this draft is highly overrated.
Pels and Kings look locked in to pick before the Spurs.
11th pick at best for the Spurs
Feeling like this draft is highly overrated.
Another ty pick. Stuck in mediocrity. Yay.
Which recent Spurs draft pick was ty?
He’s projecting ahead, thinking the Spurs might miss, for once.
C'mon
Hoping NBA GM's are like Spurs fans who are fooled by athleticism and lets this guy drop
Hope so. Moody's my guy if you're picking after 5th. He's been getting a lot of love in mock drafts lately. There will be teams, like Phoenix in past drafts, that'll reach for someone a bit too early but with the Spurs projected to pick 12th or 13th it's very unlikely he'd drop that low.
ty draft position I should say. Tell me who has been great? DeJounte is JUST now coming into his own. We keep getting decent role players. We have a team of role players. Why do they want to sneak into the playoffs year after year only to get bounced immediately and keep missing the lottery? What good does that do?
Lol. For once. They’ve missed plenty of times.
Interesting discussion on Wagner: https://youtu.be/fGY5mhmBSL8
I agree with the host, and see Wagner as a 3/4 with secondary playmaking ability.
Why do these people give guys like the guy in the black shirt a platform to express their thoughts when they have clearly only watched a single highlight video and based all their thoughts on that?
Nepotism? Sounds like it’s his brother. I’ve heard them talk before and I’ve agreed with him on other players. People often disagree would be my thought, it’s part of life.

If there's one area where the Spurs have to be acknowledged as extremely competent and better than most, it's the draft. One could argue they're not strong on the trade front, and maybe have had a tough time getting compensation for players instead of letting them walk for nothing, but their record on draft choices has been impeccable.

There was no in person 2020 Draft Combine due to coronavirus pandemic, but it is back on schedule this year. Ten team personnel members per organization are able to attend on-court portion — consistent with 2019 Combine — and six total for in-person interviews with prospects.

Sources: 2021 NBA Draft Combine is scheduled to take place in person June 21-27 in Chicago at Wintrust Arena and Marriott Marquis, consisting of team interview sessions, five-on-five games, shooting drills, measurements, strength/agility testing, halfcourt drills and medicals.
Bouknight would be Pistons' pick if they don't land in the top four, per TheAthletic writer.

I’ve started watching some film on guys, still early on so this might change for me, but I actually really like all 3 international prospects (Josh Giddey, Alperen Sengun, and Usman Garuba) they all could provide a need the team has.
Let's see if he gets past the Thunder, who seem to be collecting all the international players like Thanos collects infinity stones.
This draft could get a bit wild, mostly because it's hard to tell who the actually good players are much anymore. Players come into the NBA much more raw than ever before, while simultaneously the way the game is called lets great prospects emerge immediately. It's hard to see who will emerge in a way that was different some years ago. This draft is super-hyped and teams may convince themselves of their pet picks -- like Detroit may have with Bouknight.
The other thing is the league is super flat right now. The Lakers are an unimpressive champions and may struggle to do it again. Any team that wins it this year isn't a lock to win it next year. Wide open, teams may really roll the dice and move around.
You think they’ll take him at 3? Because he won’t be there at 20.
I agree, but OC could easily use one of their stockpile of picks to move up from 20 if they really want him.
Maybe they'll take him at 3. We're not talking about a typical team here. We're talking about a team hoarding hundreds of picks. OKC is kind of unpredictable.
Doubtful, with the five players clearly at the top. Their best strategy is to use their high picks effectively, and take absolute flyers with their late picks. Someone interesting will be there at 20.
