Gotta hope a lot of that was players wondering how they'd get the ball with Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili already established. Still, the team would have gotten Kidd in 03 if it wasn't for his wife's crappy TV career.

I think is tough. If get injured, I hope that continue to penetrate or shoot from deep.
People would think is soft if we put him in the injury list.
Black 2023: Primo not included.
Isn't Bufkin overlap with Branham? Too similar?
He'd look good at 33.
I really like Andre Jackson in the second round even though I'm not optimistic about his chances for an NBA career.
His shooting and form are so trash. Ben Simmons level awful.
But athleticism and making impact plays on defense is very fun to watch. Stick him in the gleague and see if he can rebuild his revolting shooting. Unlikely considering his age, but might be worth the attempt
Drafting the BPA might seem like a good idea but if this player is caught in a logjam or if he doesn't fit with the rest of the roster, he won't develop properly and will likely never reach his upside. For example, if Spurs draft a averaged size wing, he will have to fight with KJ, Vassell and Branham for playing time.
Regarding Spurs roster, a forward with some shooting and, of course, a point guard are the safest bet of players who can pan out with the rest of the team.
If Spurs don't get another first round pick, I quite like Marcus Sasser at #33.
Black & didnt do the combine this year so we really dont the measurements.
this thread is some prime ST tbh; not too hard but just enough to really get in your feels.
Hmm, I think he’s right where he should be. Good shooter but if you look closely his release is slow, which isn’t great when you have a negative wingspan.
Buncha s in this thread.
I dont see the Spurs spending alot of FRPs to try to move up, unless there is someone they are salivating to see play next to Wemby. That would be Scoot. That isnt happening too expensive for unproven hype. I see the Spurs playing a full young healthy roster next to Wemby to see who fits and if there has been improvement in development. It gives the Spurs a glimpse on if Wemby really can become a star in this league and to also see who compliments him that is already here on the Spurs. Next summer after we’ve had a chance to see how our current roster performs is when the Spurs will become aggressive. If we donf make the playoffs we still have a lottery pick and another FRP. We can continue to draft talent, if Wemby was able to lead us to the playoffs I can see the Spurs trading some picks to bring in a young established player to help us get even further into the playoffs. I think this is the best strategy the front office should take and probably are. We got our guy and we got a load of picks and cap space to set oitselves up for the next 10 years
[Freud]Interesting that you put that at the rear end of your post.[/Freud]
Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I’ve come around on this. Previously I thought the Spurs were fine with Tre Jones, would run it back, go 32-50, and make another lottery pick next year to find a second star. Now I think they see a draft heavy with high-quality point-guard prospects, and have figured out what they’re willing to pay from their stash of future draft assets to get one of them.
I know we still have 19 days until the draft but it is curious we usually hear more about guys the spurs bring in, not everyone but more than we have so far.
Unpopular opinion: they won't draft a PG.
I'm pretty sure of it.
I don't think that's unpopular. The Spurs probably like Jones and believe in Wesley. If they don't move up, they aren't all that likely to get a better PG prospect. I think there are some that could be there, but most of us were speculating whom we'd want if the team were to trade up. As to whether the Spurs would want to move up for a PG or another position, I think it's up in the air. They do still seem to be interviewing guards, but they could be due diligence or misdirection. I wouldn't be surprised to see them take a wing or an offensive forward (but one who could definitely play SF full time if need be). While I don't think a center is likely going to be a trade-up situation, they have two seconds and could definitely use one on another center for a two-way spot.
Really pretty different guards.
If Grady swats your shot is that a block?
Remember when who was it Minny took OJ Mayo in the draft who sucked because they didn't want Rudy Gay and Kevin Love on the same roster
In think you are right, but don't know if it's unpopular. If the Spurs want a path to upgrade at PG it wont be via the draft because those guys will be at an unattainably high pick.
