Spurs' Center Situation - Sarr?

[CGD]

Easier to find shooting, hard to find athletic 7 ' athletes who project to do many things well.

If you have a chance to draft one you do it. The Spurs didn't pass on teaming Duncan and Robinson.

I think you have a rosier view on Sarr than most, even adjusted for the ty draft inflation. If they want a raw big for a few years until Wemby fills out some, just sign Mo Bamba in free agency.

[r0drig0lac]

yep

[freetiago]

Just get a stretch 4 to replace Sochan, don’t need a no skill 7 footer. They can get Jonathan Isaac in free agency or Drummond

[jjspur]

Yes, he would. Sarr is this year’s Hasheem Thabeet.

I couldn't think of who Sarr reminded me of, but I think you hit it on the nail. His biggest skill is that he's tall, a lot of everything else is somewhat suspect for someone considered being taken that high in the draft.

[Dejounte]

i have a few issues with taking sarr. his lack of athleticism is not among them

My grandma can jump higher than Sarr. Can probably push him around too given how unathletic he is.

[baseline bum]

I don't expect sarr to be as good as Duncan but that's not the point.

The point is the Spurs didn't pass on Duncan because they had another post player already on the team.

And that same logic holds that they shouldn't pass on Sarr because they have Wemby.

Would be more like passing on Kenyon Martin with the #1 pick because you have Duncan

[td4mvp2k]

Pass. this guy don't look physical enough which is what wemby needs.

If the Spurs pick #2 and Risacher is off the board I'm definitely looking to trade the pick to someone who wants to spend big to get Sarr.

I agree, but I struggle to see what team in the bottom 5 would want to swap. Maybe Washington?

I'd rather trade him for a quality vet than a pick and change.

He jumps higher than Sochan.

[Dejounte]

He jumps higher than Sochan.

No. You are wrong. Sarr is not athletic.

I'd be shopping the pick regardless tbh.

PS: When a guy is 7'1" with a 7'4" wingspan, I'm more concerned about his mobility (very good) than how high he jumps (enough).

Those are not elite measurements for a non elite athlete. High enough in the NBL is roofed in the NBA.

The Meme is hilarious, though. 95/100 would view again.

[Uriel]

Could Wembanyana and Sarr be the new Twin Towers?

Future Chris Boucher

[John B]

David Robinson, in this years draft as a 6’6” 18 YO wing, would be the concensus #1 pick.

I don’t know DRob didn’t really shoot the 3 much for a SF at 6’6”

[poopbox]

That’s antique thinking. Unskilled 7 foot rim runners have never held less NBA value than right now.

unskilled rim runner doesn't describe sarr game at all

[Ignazzz]

Robinson without 7’00 was middle class prospect and growing up so fast suprised everyone even David. It changed everything. He kept his „short fast” players talents and got New one. Size. From God. No one expected. Please stop This bull s with 1st pick with 6”6

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Taking a sloth of a center in todays nba right up Brian Wrights alley.

[TheGreatYacht]

no. Vic cannot play as the 4 with a Center that can’t stretch the floor. He’s going to be used like Porzingis. Just give Wemby shooters and let him cook.

Just cringing at the thought of Sarr, Sochan, and god forbid Topic turning the Frost Bank Center into Gaza

[Tyronn Lue]

If we were Lakers fans we could say we should get Jokic and Sengun looks good, he came come off the bench.

[Mr. Body]

Why do people think being athletic just means jumping? I don't get it.
