we need a starter at every position other than SG and C
we at least have capable backups at PG and SF
Cedi is has played about half of his minutes at the 4 though
If Keldon is a permanent bench piece / traded later, then Julian is probably the biggest nothingburger (well, debatable between he and Sochan right now) in the starting line-up. If Vassell ascends as becomes a reliable night to night scorer, then all we’d need is a defensive ace a la Bruce Bowen. I’m all for Ryan Dunn in the upcoming draft or someone similar tbh.

Agree here, which is why I've been saying our pick should be used to fill this position and the TOR pick for PG.
This is the way, I like a lot of PGs in this draft but none with presumably a top 5 pick.
Man, I was totally expecting this type of post lolwe need a starter at every position other than SG and C

it’s like we have to preface any new topic with “yeah the whole team sucks!” Like it’s good to get that out of the way before talking about the actual topic lmao
champagnie's contract is pretty nice that its worth hanging onto. he's shown flashes and has good enough athletic traits for the position. he just doesnt really seem to know how to play off-ball and still have impact
Long term, yes. Short-term no. The Spurs need to create a functional rotation first and a contending rotation second.
It seems like the team would be functional if they stopped allowing the opposing team to score 20 pts in a 1-minute window.
I think they are equally important tbh. Having a legit SF would be nice, but if no one can actually run the offense we're still going to be ass regardless
Especially need a starting caliber SF considering Doug will likely be gone depth-wise. KJ and Champ are not enough and I feel like Cedi plays more PF
Was watching UV the other night and Dunn was disrupting so much opposing offense
He seems kinda slow, lumbering and maybe hyper specialized defensively but I liked his length and defensive IQ
I'm still on the Risacher train
More importantly, they need a new coach that will actually play a good 3 at the 3
Mugen has now been successfully added to your ignore list. You will now be returned to where you were.
I go back and forth from Risacher to Williams as I think Risacher is your 3 and D guy and Williams can do that but also handle the ball and he has more upside. What I like is that I think both will gel pretty fast with Wemby as both are not selfish and get there offense in the flow of the game.
This is going to be a crazy draft I think it is going to have changes week to week and we probably will not know who the top 5 will be until they are picked. I also think there might be more trades as now the draft is two days instead of one so a lot more time for trade talks to happen
Declaring that you ignored someone is womanly
You talking about Cody? I haven't watched him, I'll check him out
Well said Chinook.
This is random, but what do you think about Sochan? I can’t see what long term role he can play as he just doesn’t seem very good…at all.
Since we're identifying ass moves what do you call a broken record junking up threads squawking the same parrot line repeatedly
We're in here talking about SFs and I'd love to hear their take on it but instead it's shoehorning in the same cliche off topic blast
And not like I'm the fount of basketball wisdom God-tier takes myself, but I mean, dually noted, I assure you, so let's hear literally any other thoughts for a change.
I suggest others join me and refine their ST experience.
I agree and think they should draft one with their natural pick first (Risacher or Williams), and then address PG with TOR pick or trade.
I think the only reason he is not higher on most mocks is he is currently injured but he should be coming back soon as he was questionable the last game against Arizona. Another mention is that I only see 3 SF going in the top 10 of the draft and that is Risacher, Williams, and Buzelis. Of the 3 Risacher is probably the only one who could help on day 1 with his shooting and defense - Williams I think is going to take some time to put on some weight but I just like his potential slightly more - Someone is going to take Buzelis as he has high upside but until he shows he can hit the 3 ball I am just not sure
Holland will also go in the Top 10, and someone is going to fall in love with the other french kid too. So more like 5 of the top 10 in my estimation. I also think Sarr and Ja'kobe go before the first PG.
Your right CGD - If he was a legit 6'8 I might take a chance but pretty sure he is only 6'6 but man oh man is he explosive. That is another thing to consider if your team does not have a Unicorn I think you might reach more for a potential All Star then let's say a decent starting player for your team if you land in the top 7 of the draft.
I agree with you Sarr will probably go 1 but if we luck out and get the 4th pick and Sarr, Riscacher, and Williams are off the board I am probably going to take Topic over Ja'Kobe as we all ready have Vassell

My current read is that he had a lot of work on to shore up the flashes in from last year, and the Spurs wasted a summer trying to add skills he didn't need instead. I've never been in love with Sochan's defense, but he is still a big body out there, and it's weird how ineffective he seems to be in using his size against both big and small players. I'm not as long on him as some have gotten though. Like timvp giving him and F was ridiculous and a weird overcorrection for giving him too many Bs before. He (and Champ for that matter) did a lot of good last night. But like with Keldon, I think people's opinions are lagging behind reality a bit.
I totally read that as Collins instead of Sochan. Interchangeable in this context tbh.
