Goodnight sweet prince.
Kid worked his ass off after slipping in the draft, came back strong from an ACL tear, embraced a leadership role and did everything the franchise asked of him. Even I was skeptical of him and he proved me wrong.
Good luck in ATL tbh, hopefully he signs elsewhere in 2 years tho
Thanks for everything DJ. Good luck on the rest of your NBA journey.
Wish him nothing but all the success in the world.
Enjoy winning again. Atl gonna be scary
DJ was one of my favorite players as of late. Can’t thank him enough for how he much he supported the players and Pop during his time here. But also thank god we aren’t the ones that will give him max money.
Will always root for Dejounte. It was a blast watching him grow as a player. He's not especially naturally talented but he worked incredibly hard and wasn't afraid to push himself to his limits.
He was also the last real connection to the Golden Years. TP telling Dejounte his time had come to lead the Spurs minutes after tearing his quadriceps sounded like the makings of the tale of how the Spurs extended their greatness beyond the Big Three Era. Unfortunately, that's not how the story ended.
And he was professional. Especially on his way out. SA fans should appreciate that aspect more than anyone after what Kawhi did. DJ being a legit Spur and making sure SA ended up ok on way out.
He was a class act showed other players you work hard keep your head up and believe in yourself you can do any thing. I whish him many more All Star selections and hope he has a long career.
Thanks for the games DJM, one of my favorite Spurs. I hope these young ones you are leaving behind make you proud.
I'm really happy the team got Pop that record last year and Murray got SA another All-Star appearance. Last year mattered as a fan. I know folks wanted to tank, but I'm glad they didn't. These are good memories. They aren't rings, but just like the 2015 SL le, it's one of those little things that makes being a fan fun.
ing neph.
At the moment I'm disappointed with the terms of the deal, though given the way it's structured, the right knee blows up and the whole thing does a 180. But either way, one important takeaway is Dejounte's statement put the nail in the coffin on the speculation by some here that the Spurs had mishandled his situation and that it would backfire on our youth. If anything, he's shouting to the world how much the franchise has done for him to be where he is, and the young guys should relish the opportunity that opened in front of them. I certainly like them a lot. Here's to hoping they make the most of it.
Good luck Dejounte. I wish your wish for s om and individual accolades come true
Wish him the absolute best. No ill will toward him whatsoever. He turned out better than i could have hoped at the time of the draft even with the lost season
Hawks are most definitely making the playoffs
The only thing I knew about Dejounte was I got tired of yelling at the tv for him to shoot it. Dude was never guarded and was always hesitant. No love lost here. Time to win.
His game is flawed and his twitter-happy fingers is not Spursy. He would only take the Spurs so far, and he would be asking Max contract. It was the right move. Spurs sold high. They have options to either use those picks to draft or package to trade for that player they can build on.
Likewise I see Primo as the more steady player, no unnecesary iness, just confidence. Vassell likewise. I have no problem with Keldon despite Klutch. He loves Pop. Poeltl is weak and has to go. Sochan is another alpha I like.
Brahnam seems soft spoken but shows his game on the court. Blake is the concern. He could be a littke y, I’m sure he’s an alpha. I have the feeling he likes to compete asap. Let’s see if he lines up.
Damn going to miss DJ, he was one of my favorite players other than the Big 3. Instagram baller turned into the first home grown AS Spur since the Big 3 and Nephew, and the odds were heavily against him. I’m going to for sure follow him for the rest of his career.
Cant wait for the Dejounte thread following his every game next season
