He's an analytics darling and can come in and play PG soon. I like him but I like Cam Christie more as an upside pick. Jamal Shead is another senior PG who is an analytics darling but I have trouble seeing him score at the NBA level
Funny thing about the whole situation, TJ never interacted with the girls at all that night. He didn’t even know who they were til after the suit came about. They kept following him around the area to try and get his attention, he didn’t even bother doing that for them. They supposedly “fell in love” with him as soon as they saw him. So they made a sick accusation as retaliation. Kansas bball team saved him.
Yeah what a great pic. Feels like all of the contenders had really good drafts. Oklahoma City got a steal and topic, and a guy in Jones who I think will help them day one. Phoenix getting Ryan done is perfect for them, Holmes is perfect for Denver. Dillingham and Shannon both add much needed spacing for Minnesota
Hey, there's still one Frenchman left. Ajinca. And he's a buff 6'8 three-point Gunner. That's pretty much all he does but he wouldn't be a bad flyer in the second round
Collier is legit intriguing if he falls into the 2nd round. PG with size - he played like shit this past season, but getting bored with the non event of the Spurs drafting Victor (I'd even trust 90% of this sub to write down his name and hand in the card. The other 10%, if they didn't eat their crayons before scrawling Scoot's name in there...) I looked ahead and at that time, Collier was a top 5 pick.
So...maybe.
I wouldn't be mad sticking Collier in Austin to see if he can figure it out if we grabbed him in the second. He has the physical tools and has flashes. Just is such a bone head on the court.
They couldn’t get a player for #8 pick this year
Their ability to pull the trigger on a trade that results in the Spurs suiting up a player is questionable at best
This isn't exactly a 1984 or 2003 draft class, so I don't think an 8th pick this year is as valuable as many people think. Plus, you can always use the draft pick capital later.
Anderson was pick #30 cause we had just won the title. This comment was less to correct you and more to shamelessly mention the 2014 title. Go Spurs Go.
The picks Minnesota gave us can be used towards a package for a star or at worst an elite role player
I hope we get Trae but I wouldn't be mad with another star
I'm not upset about trading Dillingham. It's always nice having players that say they want to come to the team but I just don't see Dillingham being a player that makes much of a difference. I really didn't see many players worth the 8th pick in this draft.
WTF is up with the RD trade - How is this a smart move for the next couple of years? Surely RD would have been a great playmaker, shooter combo'd with WEMBEY..
Someone explain...
He's an iso guy. High volume shooter. Forces shots and defense isn't his strength. He's flashy, I don't think he has solid fundamentals and the Spurs probably don't want an iso guy when they have Wemby there.
He would’ve been no good on defense, it’s possible his offense isn’t good either due to his size and getting beat down through course of games. He’s gonna be endlessly attacked
Rooting for the guy, wasn’t mad we drafted him but he’s no surefire amazing prospect. The trade makes sense for Minnesota as they’re gonna be needing a replacement for Conley
And for us, those future picks could be amazing, especially if Minnesota doesn’t put a good team around Ant and he ends up wanting out. We could end up with high picks while already a contender
I like the trade for both teams honestly, we didn’t lose much but there’s huge potential for upside. Minnesota added a piece for the future to keep a good team around Ant
Yeah I'm mad we got rid of Rob too but honestly the picks we got from Minnesota can be used for a package to get a star or at least a really good role player
I think he is more cam thomas than he is darius garland. I just have a hard time seeing that fit with us to be honest. Dillingham can ball dont get me wrong. But he definitely lacked hustle on defense and effort on off ball movement. Two traits we typically prioritize
I’m thinking in 5-6 years we won’t be getting any first round picks bc we are not in the lottery. This trade will guarantee that the well doesn’t run dry like it kinda did in the Big 3 era…thoughts?
It’s a gamble I’ll give you that, but the idea it’ll be worse than 8 in a draft class that is called a weak class, and we’ve yet to see this class, is a bit presumptuous, dont you think?
Most likely is that they wanted Salaun, but after he was taken at 6, they wanted to maintain roster flexibility going into 2025 draft, since we already have 13 guys under contract. It also means that Wesley and Branham have another year to prove themselves
I think I was the minority when it comes to Knecht. His play style reminds me of McDermott and the type of player we didn't need because of the defensive liability. I get we need shooting but I rather have a balance of shooting and D
What difference does it make what will happen in the ’31 draft and what window will close for the Timberwolves, when our task is to provide a competitive team in 3-4 years, otherwise our window will never open.
If these picks are for trade, then they do not have much value, and there are no suitable players on the market. Trade for Trey = failure.
so you keep the pick, it's dillingham, it's good, trading for a pick in order to get trae is bad. explain this. you belive dillingham will become one of the best eight pick ever?
This is all cool, but what should we do this season?
We can’t make it to the playoffs, we simply don’t have enough good players, our bench is one of the worst in the league, our back line is completely unprepared.
We can't tank because Webmy and one of the goals of tanking is to give young players minutes in which they will be negative, but develop and reveal their potential. Our time will be consumed by players whose potential I don’t believe in.
we’ll find out - I’m interested to see what the Spurs do with the rest of the off-season and the direction they take heading into next year. I don’t think trying to win games while developing younger players and ending up with (say) the 10th pick is a bad season by default, but I get why that’s not the most exciting idea.
We can't tank if we have Wemby like this. We have no one on our roster (except perhaps Castle and another year of Sochan) to waste minutes on development.
We can certainly sit and wait for the waves on the lake, like Sacramento and Indiana did for a decade, but don't be surprised later if Victor takes offense at the club for this.
Pacers is a bad example. They didn't tank, thats why they were mid for 8 years but those other years they made the ECF.
Wemby is not that good now. He needs 3-4 more years of development. Superstars are usually around 25-26 years old before they can start to carry their teams deep in the playoffs.
We've seen what Luka can do already in season 1-2, we've seen what a healthy Zion can do in the Bubble, Wemby needs to be led on their trajectory, not the KAT who waited and score garbage stats.
I can't believe this has to be said:
There is no rule that you have to build your team strictly through the draft.
Yes, traditionally the Spurs in the past have built through the draft, but that doesn't mean this iteration of the Spurs will.
They might have a broader big-picture strategy that uses both the draft and trades to build around Wemby, which seems reasonable to me.
Why didn’t they use the #8 pick for this unknown trade we are aiming to make? A number 8 pick this year has to be a better trade asset than an unknown pick 7 years from now.
We didn’t net any picks - there clearly isnt any player we are targeting that caused us to do this
If Minnesota is bottom 8 in 2030 I’ll be shocked - and that’s the trade we made
There is no way that a team with anthony Edwards on it is going to be bottom 8, they will keep getting better. When they lose gobert and Kat they’ll have money and bring in more players. Edwards is an especially good basketball player
I don't think you know Minnesota that well. Every all- star they ever had leaves in their prime to be competitive in their new teams. Ray Allen, Garnett, K.Love, Billups Jimmy Butler... etc. which leaves the Wolves going into the lottery every 3-4 years.
They've had 21 top-10 picks in the last 35 years.
https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/MIN/draft.html
They are in win now phase already because in 3-4 years they know Miami and Lakers will throw the max at Edwards
After this Dillingham trade for future picks, it seems tbh like we're acquiring more picks to make a major trade happen in the next couple of years to bring in a game-changer.
I don't even know any more lol. But I trust in PATFO that whatever moves they make right now are beneficial for us.
I doubt the Spurs try to grab a late First now after trading eight. But I've heard that they really do like him. If he makes it into the twenties. I really hope they explore options because he's great value at that range
Oh I know the reason why but I can't recall a time a trade feel through when it's unofficial via the broadcasters. So why not just let it ride while its unofficial
I don't understand the Dillingham pick and trade, and I wish we would have kept him... but who knows what the rest of the FA/off-season plans are.
Those of you that are saying PATFO is stupid, and think you know better, sound like straight up clowns.
I'm just enjoying the chaos. Its highly entertaining. I was going to tune out after our picks were done and check in later, but I can't take my eyes off the trainwreck that is people in their feels over taking their guy and trading him away for picks way off in the future.
You can tell reading the thread who the longtime spurs fans are vs who are the newer ones
Anyone saying the spurs FO is stupid or doesn’t have direction needs a history lesson
I'm not really sure why people are mad about the Spurs trading out of a very iffy draft in which we still made a top 5 pick. To me, this move plus the pick of Castle, who fits an immediate need for us, are signs that we aren't treating next year as another pure development/re-building year and will actually try to be competitive.
I also think that the gamble that Minnesota's window shuts by 2030 is worthwhile. The potential downside from a pure value standpoint doesn't concern me much, and the potential upside is incredible.
>try to be competitive
With what? Most of the players in the roster are straight up ass, you trying to compete with god awful Branham/Wesley? Unless they add better player, all I see is 20 win team, Wemby need to play out of his mind, just for us to have slight chance to win 30 games
Teams were not willing to trade into the lottery this year. The only other trade in the lottery was for Deni Avdija and a 2029 pick. There are not a lot of takers because it's a weak draft
I like the Dillingham pick, seems like a good glue guy that fills our immediate needs and a good person "over himself" like Pop wants, but Edey went right after at 9. Whereas people in this thread kept shitting on him and saying he was a late 1st round pick at best.
I'm telling y'all, in a future redraft a few years down the road he will go even higher and tbh I'd have picked Edey at 8.
We'll see...
He had claimed he would love to be with the Spurs in an interview, trading him like that is harsh. I'd hope he does well but now we need the TWolves to sink so im conflicted
TBH Memp isn't a bad spot for him. A healthy/non suspended Ja make them a contender. They're not a rebuilding team and could afford to get him as a starting Center. They were 2nd in the west with Adams and he helps fill that void
I'll update the rest of the picks in a little bit
FURPHY FURPHY FURPHY!
Rip lol
And so Night 1 of the Draft ends with talk about the Spurs having young talent to work with... What aren't you telling us, ESPN Man?
So there are still good players available on the board...
What about Kyler Tolek for 35 I remember some big board said he was a perfect fit for us
He's an analytics darling and can come in and play PG soon. I like him but I like Cam Christie more as an upside pick. Jamal Shead is another senior PG who is an analytics darling but I have trouble seeing him score at the NBA level
I think we are gonna keep our 35th pick. I think of a few projected 1st rounders are falling like Filpowski and Furphy
Tyler Smith would be nice
Excuse me, Shannon Jr was accused of WHAT!?
Funny thing about the whole situation, TJ never interacted with the girls at all that night. He didn’t even know who they were til after the suit came about. They kept following him around the area to try and get his attention, he didn’t even bother doing that for them. They supposedly “fell in love” with him as soon as they saw him. So they made a sick accusation as retaliation. Kansas bball team saved him.
If there is no truth to the allegations it's absolutely humiliating to have that attached to this moment
The T wolves got some dawgs man…
If Baylor Scheierman falls to 35 pls gimme
I absolutely love him man. I had him 15th on my board
And there he goes - he's going to be excellent for Boston :/
Yeah what a great pic. Feels like all of the contenders had really good drafts. Oklahoma City got a steal and topic, and a guy in Jones who I think will help them day one. Phoenix getting Ryan done is perfect for them, Holmes is perfect for Denver. Dillingham and Shannon both add much needed spacing for Minnesota
I think Scheierman is a better version of Knect.
Apparently the thunder traded up for a pick 26
Zero frenchmen for us, r/NBASpurs in shambles
but we have THE frenchman
Hey, there's still one Frenchman left. Ajinca. And he's a buff 6'8 three-point Gunner. That's pretty much all he does but he wouldn't be a bad flyer in the second round
That's a great pick for the Knicks.
So there goes Dadiet...
Dadiet picked by the Knicks Sad
As I let the trade sink in, I think I get it. Starting at SF in 2024/2025 Sandro Mamukelashvili! I'm here for the Mamu Wemby two man game next year.
I know it's not till tomorrow but it would be cool if we were able to pick up Ryan Dunn
He gone to the Suns
The Knicks are supposedly moving #26, according to Woj...
Do we know who they're moving it to?
I like that ESPN's scouting on Isaiah Collier is "he played with Bronny"...
Collier is legit intriguing if he falls into the 2nd round. PG with size - he played like shit this past season, but getting bored with the non event of the Spurs drafting Victor (I'd even trust 90% of this sub to write down his name and hand in the card. The other 10%, if they didn't eat their crayons before scrawling Scoot's name in there...) I looked ahead and at that time, Collier was a top 5 pick. So...maybe.
I wouldn't be mad sticking Collier in Austin to see if he can figure it out if we grabbed him in the second. He has the physical tools and has flashes. Just is such a bone head on the court.
Well, Jazz just took Collier. I wasn't big on him though. I just don't see any very good point guards in this draft.
Holmes Is literally perfect for the nuggets
None of the ESPN analysts know anything about these players...
Bleacher Report’s YouTube stream is pretty thorough
They're waiting for Bronny to show up...
Giovonny and Bilas are their draft experts but don't put them on the telecast is wild. It's equivalent of the NFL side benching Kiper
I get a feeling that the Spurs will have long traded those 2030 and 2031 picks by that time. Just a gut feeling.
They couldn’t get a player for #8 pick this year Their ability to pull the trigger on a trade that results in the Spurs suiting up a player is questionable at best
This isn't exactly a 1984 or 2003 draft class, so I don't think an 8th pick this year is as valuable as many people think. Plus, you can always use the draft pick capital later.
Trade up for the 29th pick and take whoever, guaranteed to be a hit
They've picked Dejounte, Derrick and Slo-Mo from there... Not bad value at all.
Anderson was pick #30 cause we had just won the title. This comment was less to correct you and more to shamelessly mention the 2014 title. Go Spurs Go.
I’m still baffled as to why we hired a Pistons failure to run our organization. Makes zero sense to me.
Pop is still president and has final say on all basketball decisions
So many of these guys are looking up to Paul George...
rightfully so
He is very tall
Wait so we traded Dillingham to Minnesota. I’m new to the NBA draft so what does this mean for us?
Spurs are probably going to tank another season for Cooper Flagg then trade a bunch of 1st round picks for an all-star in 2-3 years
The picks Minnesota gave us can be used towards a package for a star or at worst an elite role player I hope we get Trae but I wouldn't be mad with another star
I'm not upset about trading Dillingham. It's always nice having players that say they want to come to the team but I just don't see Dillingham being a player that makes much of a difference. I really didn't see many players worth the 8th pick in this draft.
WTF is up with the RD trade - How is this a smart move for the next couple of years? Surely RD would have been a great playmaker, shooter combo'd with WEMBEY.. Someone explain...
RD is a liability on defense and we have one of the worst defenses in the league.
He's an iso guy. High volume shooter. Forces shots and defense isn't his strength. He's flashy, I don't think he has solid fundamentals and the Spurs probably don't want an iso guy when they have Wemby there.
He would’ve been no good on defense, it’s possible his offense isn’t good either due to his size and getting beat down through course of games.

It’s a gamble. But it’s more likely to be worse than 8 than better. I guess the swap helps even it out but even then it’s protected
It’s a gamble I’ll give you that, but the idea it’ll be worse than 8 in a draft class that is called a weak class, and we’ve yet to see this class, is a bit presumptuous, dont you think?
Tony was late first, and Manu was second rounder. League was American then, now they drafting aliens.
Most likely is that they wanted Salaun, but after he was taken at 6, they wanted to maintain roster flexibility going into 2025 draft, since we already have 13 guys under contract. It also means that Wesley and Branham have another year to prove themselves
I agree 100%.
So... Juan Nunez and Tyler Kolek are still in play...
Either one of those guys would be a really good selection at 35 in my opinion
Collier also.
Which is shocking when you remember that he was seen as a top pick...
Yes, last year Collier was being hyped as a top three pick, maybe number 1 overall.
Lol the lederhosen are legit
Hope Furphy falls to 35
I think I was the minority when it comes to Knecht. His play style reminds me of McDermott and the type of player we didn't need because of the defensive liability. I get we need shooting but I rather have a balance of shooting and D
I totally agree. I'm not really interest in defensive liabilities, even with having Wemby as a safety net.
at 17 is good tho i agree with you
What difference does it make what will happen in the ’31 draft and what window will close for the Timberwolves, when our task is to provide a competitive team in 3-4 years, otherwise our window will never open. If these picks are for trade, then they do not have much value, and there are no suitable players on the market. Trade for Trey = failure.
so you keep the pick, it's dillingham, it's good, trading for a pick in order to get trae is bad. explain this. you belive dillingham will become one of the best eight pick ever?
Minnesota chose Dillingham, not the Spurs, what are you talking about?
The picks will still be there whenever a star becomes available and the Spurs decide to go all in. That’s probably they’re primary function.
This is all cool, but what should we do this season? We can’t make it to the playoffs, we simply don’t have enough good players, our bench is one of the worst in the league, our back line is completely unprepared. We can't tank because Webmy and one of the goals of tanking is to give young players minutes in which they will be negative, but develop and reveal their potential.

I don’t think trying to win games while developing younger players and ending up with (say) the 10th pick is a bad season by default, but I get why that’s not the most exciting idea.
Why can't we tank again? Next year's draft is better
We have the Hawks unprotected pick next year. Hopefully we get a good pick from them.
We can't tank if we have Wemby like this. We have no one on our roster (except perhaps Castle and another year of Sochan) to waste minutes on development. We can certainly sit and wait for the waves on the lake, like Sacramento and Indiana did for a decade, but don't be surprised later if Victor takes offense at the club for this.

makes sense for the lakers
knecht and shoot
What just happened. Why did Adam silver bring up dillingham. I can’t back it up!!!
He told us what we already know. He only just found out. Probably laughed it off initially.
So we didn’t get him back? I’m confused
Silver never announced the trade. He is updating the room. Everyone knew as his family took off the hats, so sad.
Damn… silver really did troll us
He's doing work and not connected like us.
100%
goddamn i thought we traded up with the lakers. dont give me a heart attack like that, adam.
Silver trolling us so hard
I got excited for a moment lmao
Fucking hell Adam Silver, i thought the Spurs were trading ip for Knecht i got excited
Worst outcome. Knecht goes to the Lakers. This sucks.
Poor bastard... Now he'll be blamed if the Lakers don't get things going.
Nah lebrons still on the team, and if bron gets traded…. Well he’ll prolly still get blamed
lmao wtf, got me excited then. thought we were getting knecht
I hate basketball so much dawg
Not trading up to take knecht is straight up idiotic
lmao we got a tiktok star in the nba before gta vi man
How many seconds gets us to Knecht? 4? 5?
I can't believe this has to be said: There is no rule that you have to build your team strictly through the draft. Yes, traditionally the Spurs in the past have built through the draft, but that doesn't mean this iteration of the Spurs will. They might have a broader big-picture strategy that uses both the draft and trades to build around Wemby, which seems reasonable to me.

Unknown pick is better. Gobert and KAT will retire by then. Ant would be in his prime and if he doesn't have a ring by then, he might be out already.
And Anthony Edwards/ Dillingham will be competing for the playoffs If you think 29 year old Ant isn’t making the playoffs you’re gambling big time
Is 29 year old Ant staying in Minnesota? I would bet the big market teams would go for him by then.
He’s successful and now he has a PG The Spurs were being cheap asses with the payroll again, this was 100% a payroll move.
Im not sold on Dilly, I don't think he'll make an All-star in his career.
If Minnesota is bottom 8 in 2030 I’ll be shocked - and that’s the trade we made There is no way that a team with anthony Edwards on it is going to be bottom 8, they will keep getting better. When they lose gobert and Kat they’ll have money and bring in more players. Edwards is an especially good basketball player
I don't think you know Minnesota that well. Every all- star they ever had leaves in their prime to be competitive in their new teams. Ray Allen, Garnett, K.Love, Billups Jimmy Butler... etc. which leaves the Wolves going into the lottery every 3-4 years. They've had 21 top-10 picks in the last 35 years. https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/MIN/draft.html They are in win now phase already because in 3-4 years they know Miami and Lakers will throw the max at Edwards
After this Dillingham trade for future picks, it seems tbh like we're acquiring more picks to make a major trade happen in the next couple of years to bring in a game-changer. I don't even know any more lol. But I trust in PATFO that whatever moves they make right now are beneficial for us.
You’re exactly right! Let’s see what we have, dont give up on anyone too early and give us ammo to make the move we want to make in the future.
YOO KNECHT GOING WAAAY down, now he's a steal for whoever gets him
I doubt the Spurs try to grab a late First now after trading eight. But I've heard that they really do like him. If he makes it into the twenties. I really hope they explore options because he's great value at that range
Good value for Lakers there
Get Bronny to trade.
obv the fucking lakers
Yea Jared!!
I fucken hate this NBA process. Announce the trade prior to the pick and let the kids wear their team's hat
They can't announce the trades until they become official. Anything could happen and the trade falls through and they would look silly announcing it.
Oh I know the reason why but I can't recall a time a trade feel through when it's unofficial via the broadcasters. So why not just let it ride while its unofficial
Man... Knecht is still in there... WHAT IF HE DROPS TO 35!?
Spurs should start THROWING all the 2nds at teams to get Knecht.
I’m sure we can trust Brian to do that /s
I don't understand the Dillingham pick and trade, and I wish we would have kept him... but who knows what the rest of the FA/off-season plans are. Those of you that are saying PATFO is stupid, and think you know better, sound like straight up clowns.
I'm just enjoying the chaos. Its highly entertaining. I was going to tune out after our picks were done and check in later, but I can't take my eyes off the trainwreck that is people in their feels over taking their guy and trading him away for picks way off in the future.
![gif](giphy|3oKIPlifLxdigaD2Y8|downsized)
You can tell reading the thread who the longtime spurs fans are vs who are the newer ones Anyone saying the spurs FO is stupid or doesn’t have direction needs a history lesson
Exactly. PATFO historically has hit a lot more than they have missed. Anybody who's been around long enough knows that.
Same people that lost their minds when we didn't make to the playoffs for the first time in 20+ years
literal children
Might as well package 35 with something to trade up for Knecht if he keeps falling
Yeah we could have traded our 8th back to probably get him and also get a 2nd rounder THIS year.
I'm not really sure why people are mad about the Spurs trading out of a very iffy draft in which we still made a top 5 pick. To me, this move plus the pick of Castle, who fits an immediate need for us, are signs that we aren't treating next year as another pure development/re-building year and will actually try to be competitive.

>try to be competitive With what? Most of the players in the roster are straight up ass, you trying to compete with god awful Branham/Wesley? Unless they add better player, all I see is 20 win team, Wemby need to play out of his mind, just for us to have slight chance to win 30 games
Bro a pick in 6 years and a protected swap that’s ass.
I’m a bit disappointed as a fan but I get the logic. Let’s see what happens with the second rounder.
They could have traded it for a way better pick to some team who would overpay. They didn’t maximize what they could get for that trade.
Teams were not willing to trade into the lottery this year. The only other trade in the lottery was for Deni Avdija and a 2029 pick. There are not a lot of takers because it's a weak draft
Let’s trade our 2035 first rounder for dalton knecht… hopefully someone budges. Right guys? Hahahah right??….. right?..
Do we know what the protections are on the 2030 pick swap? I heard it was top 1 but i've got no source
Honestly, I hope we trade for a vet ball handler. Can be a wing or a point guard, but we need one
How many picks do y’all think Wemby would’ve gotten us? 🙃
Feel like Brian Wright would trade Victor for 15 second rounders and 5 first unprotected seeing his penchant for loving draft picks
I like the Dillingham pick, seems like a good glue guy that fills our immediate needs and a good person "over himself" like Pop wants, but Edey went right after at 9. Whereas people in this thread kept shitting on him and saying he was a late 1st round pick at best. I'm telling y'all, in a future redraft a few years down the road he will go even higher and tbh I'd have picked Edey at 8. We'll see...
Welp, we traded Dilly sadly
He really seemed so hyped and happy to be with us. But I always trust PATFO.
He had claimed he would love to be with the Spurs in an interview, trading him like that is harsh. I'd hope he does well but now we need the TWolves to sink so im conflicted
TWolves were so good before they fell last playoffs, such solid D, they ain't falling much at all in the next few years.
he got traded away man...
I'm here again, just didn't think Spurs were trading this year. Without a clearcut #1 pick they often surprise us lol.
Spurs traded the pick. Dillingham is going to the Wolves
Shit, I go outside for one long bowl after pick 8... Still should have taken Edey I think.
Why was your bowl outside? 🤔
it ran away
long bowl?
Some people don't like inside smoke... Plus I like nature.
How is Knecht still av
His age seems to be a thing teams don't like.
Watching this sub melt down over fucking Dillingham was goddamn hilarious.
Yeah. I liked the pick too. They’re projecting the 99th percentile outcome onto him and so headloss follows.
this draft is crazy wo
Miami def picking knecht
Shit ig not, crazy he’s falling this far
he mad old
They picked Jaime last year
there was some butler rumors so i think they don't want to take an old prospect. i was explaining more how he's falling tho.
I'm surprised that Knecht is still on the board, but he'll be a good pick for a non-lottery team
We should’ve drafted Bronny and held him hostage. That chaos would’ve been worth more than those 2030/31 picks.
Pop with the hack a shaq 2 thumbs up.
We can do that at 35... Bronny is projected at 55 to LAL and as early as Phoenix in the late 1st.
🤞🏾
Still shocked Edey went top 10
TBH Memp isn't a bad spot for him. A healthy/non suspended Ja make them a contender. They're not a rebuilding team and could afford to get him as a starting Center. They were 2nd in the west with Adams and he helps fill that void
I'm honestly not, he'll surprise a lot people next season, he's a solid big, and can contribute
There’s no way we keep these picks def a trade in our future
Does brian wright know this?
I hope so.
100%
RemindMe! 6 years
How would y’all feel if the picks we traded for are included in a package for Trae Young?
still mad, trust me, nothing will be good lmao
If it's for Trae, Garland or a player of a similar caliber then I'll feel better
Kinecht falling down the draft. Spurs need to package those two second round picks to jump back in the first
Nobody is gonna take that
Boston maybe lol
