    It was a long shot that we'd make the playoffs but at least we had a shot to play for the play in. Now that Victor is out for the season, where does the team go from here?

    Do we shut down Fox?
    Do we tank the rest of the way?
    Does CP3 get bought out?
    Are we running with Sochan and Bassey at C?

    Spurs have basically no C now on the roster and no chance to compete without Vic. Where do we go from here?

    I just bought up the center issue in another thread. Who are the Spurs going to start in Victor's place. They never bothered to get a proper back up center all season. Freaking irresponsible of them.

    I'd let for play a game or two in SA if he wants to, then shut him down.

    It's not about do we tank, we don't have an NBA level big, we're going to get murdered in most games, but then again we can't catch up with those really horrible teams. Jazz, Pelicans, Wizards, Hornets are out of reach. Nets have just 3 less wins, but they're blatantly tanking, maybe Raptors with Ingram can overtake us. Trading the best tank commander in the game to a direct compe or will cost us, tbh.

    They'll probably ask CP3 about his wishes and let him go if he wants to.

    Now that Wemby's career is in doubt, they need to pray they land a top four pick tbh.

    • Tank
    • Shut Fox down for the season and let him get his surgery
    • Waive CP3
    • Play Branham and Wesley heavy minutes to see if there's anything there (unlikely + helps the tank regardless)
    • Give Castle 20+ shots a game to further develop and help ensure his ROY
    • Pray to the basketball Gods that Wemby makes a full recovery and that this isn't a long-term or recurring issue

    It's already a giant kick in the nads that Wemby is out, I don't want to be subjected to watching Branham play big minutes

    his contract for next season is guaranteed. him getting sheer volume to go ahead and average 12ppg might be what is needed to convince somebody to trade for him

    The least we can do is lose all the remaining games to get Flagg. I'm fine with no 5

    #1: shut down Fox and have him get surgery.
    #2: waive CP3 (and maybe Barnes too. With the idea of picking them back up in the offseason).
    #3: make Castle the #1 option.

    For the rest of the season:

    Starters:

    PG: Castle
    SG: Vassell
    SF: Champagnie
    PF: Sochan
    C: Bassey

    Bench:

    PG: Wesley
    SG: Branham
    SF: Ingram
    PF: Mamu
    C: Minx

    Try and get at least on Ace Bailey territory.

    Definitely time to ask CP3 if he wants to be waived so he can sign with a contender. With how awesome he has been this season I think pretty much any contender would ing love to get him.

    Depends what PATFO's goals are. If it's to field a championship-caliber team, they need to have Fox's surgery and have them both out at the same time. If PATFO just want to sell tickets, then I can see them playing Fox the rest of the season so the fans keep showing up, and then having his surgery in the off-season (and possibly miss the beginning of next season when Wemby is back).

    They could also just play Fox if they were dishonest about Wemby's future.

    Isn't Minix also out for the season?

    * We weren't gonna make the play-ins anyway. Let's tank for better draft positioning.
    * Might as well get Fox fixed up at this point too. Even more tanking goodness for draft positioning.
    * Unleash the Castle. Get him the ROTY and let him just do whatever he wants to develop.
    * Give Vassell and Keldon more minutes, up their trade value as proven tank commanders for the offseason moves.
    * Spurs hopefully wake up to the fact a great backup big is super important this offseason to not run wemby into the ground, and make the right moves
    * No Euro ball for Wemby this summer. He'll be cleared for a full offseason of prep and conditioning and training
    * Missing out on DPOY and All NBA will light a fire in Wemby's soul, he'll come back with a vengeance next season. 30/12/5 with 6 stocks
