Hahahaha trade him now while his value is at its peak!!!

Nah it’s been nice seeing him finally coming around and playing efficient basketball, let’s see if it can start contributing to wins once we have the Jimmy stuff behind us. Unfortunately right now it’s just good numbers on a mediocre team

SAS shouldnt even be a player for Fox in my mind. The timelines are off. No way they give up Castle.

I honestly agree and I’m not even trying to be biased lol. They should hold out for Ant tbh, he’s coming available within the next 2-3 years I’d say.

Not a draftnik like you but Castle was my favorite prospect in the draft.

Reminded me of a young Jimmy.

I have think SAS will insist on keeping him and instead will look to involve more teams with young prospects who they can compensate with draft capital to route to Sac instead.

Ant would make more sense.

Fox is right in the midst of his prime years. By the time hes exiting his prime, the Spurs will be entering theirs.

SAS can use their two lotto picks to add more guys on Wembys timeline.

Dont rush it.

To be fair to Panda, no one really expected Herro to make such a wild leap as the franchise player.

Yeah no need for them to rush it. Also that Wolves unprotected pick down the road might be a game changer for them. Could easily be a top lottery pick.

Castle has a lot of positive qualities that you cant teach. If he keeps working on his shot and his decision making, then hes a building block.

SAS shouldnt be looking to add win now players just yet. Maybe in a couple years.

No way to really prove that, we’ve been just fine without him in the past. We’re basically the same team we’ve been the last 3 seasons or so. Not even a knock on the dude, I’m just saying

This is actually really brave of him to admit and come out and say. One thing D-Wade is gonna be is transparent, and a lot of ppl hate it, but its a rare but often great quality as a public figure, when done right. Because a lot of men will listen to that and it'll change their perspective on going to the doctor and how they take care of themselves.

I wonder how much Gabby had to do with making him take his butt down to the Dr. and get checked out lol


crazy how after 40 things go down hill fast
at least his cancer was removed because he has the means to get the best doctors which is cool. i have a relative that has a rare form of leukemia that was declared a couple of years ago. thing is unlike wade we dont have a cancer history in our family.


if i were him i would do check ups regularly like every 6 months to be on the safe side. cancer is not joke. specially when its active and makes metastasis

Wonder if the Spurs were to offer 3 1sts and we offered 3 1sts and Jaime after the Jimmy trade if they’d prefer to send him to the East.

Nah, he's carrying us absent Jimmy, and with Bam in the worst offensive funk of his career. He deserves credit for that. Jimmy normally misses time, but this is different, Jimmy's not playing and when he does he's actively sabotaging the team, this is all Tyler. I think those who were quick to criticize should also be fair and charitable to him now that he's performing.

Also the idea that he's just a plugin piece is really unfair to his development, there's a lot of things he does that can't be easily replaced. He legitimately looks like Steph Curry out there sometimes, and I'm trying not to be too hyperbolic, but the numbers back it up, his efficiency this season is off the charts.

Jaime Jovic and whatever picks we have left for Fox. Weve got Larsson and Keshad waiting to play.

He's very lucky. My mom found out she had pancreatic cancer and caught it at stage 2 and it was still too late to do anything, she passed within 2 years. Happy he seems to have got it sorted, hopefully he stays in remission.
