Honestly.... 2 point guards?

What reason do we need them?

One could have been had in the 2nd round another is a Beno 2.0 Millennium edition.

We deserve a F as a draft grade...

like I said in the other thread, just frustrating..

I'm not gonna give up on George Hill before I see him next year, but why draft him when there are MUCH better options available?..to make it worse, WHY THE **** would we draft another PG?!..

just frustrating..

this team now NEEDS an athletic wing through free agency, or we need Mahinmi to bring athleticism next year..or we need Artest..

I don't know how much confidence I have anymore in the FO..they better prove me wrong..

this team isn't winning **** with a SG/SF core of Manu, Barry, Bowen and Udoka..just isn't happening..way too old..this team might win but will have a hard time with Oberto and Thomas as our main big men with Timmy..

I go to draftexpress and find this gem ...


Goran Dragic had his coming out party at the Eurobasket this summer, where all his strengths and weaknesses were exposed against Europe’s finest. Being loaned from Spanish powerhouse Tau Ceramica for the second year in a row, Dragic is still proving himself on the European scene


Yeah... our buddies at Tau are prolly laughing their asses off right now...

First Scola and the big ass buyout they wanted for him
Splitter and their mega offer...
Now Dragic is owned by Tau...

You got to be kidding me.

hahahah, I had no idea..wow..

the thing that pisses me off too..if we take risks ALL THE TIME with international players and ****, why don't we just take the risk with Arthur's health? I'd rather take a health risk on a guy that was projected to go from 15-20, over a risk IN GENERAL in George Hill..

I don't even think Mahinmi will get the opportunity next year..I really hope he does, but I don't see it..part of this team's problems is Pop and Buford's commitment to "loyal" players and veteran players..

it looks as if management has confidence in Oberto, Thomas, Bowen and Barry..

Bowen is 37; Oberto and Thomas weren't going to cut it, and we get 2 point guards?

I'm in the same boat ride on this issue. It's one thing to draft 1 PG, but 2 PGs'. Right now the Spurs are treating this draft like crap. Are they playing stupid or they are stubborn to think they are good with the roster they have. Outside of George Hill, I'm simply dissapointed with the Spurs right now.

Wait and see what they can do before judging the draft.

I really like having the rights to James Gist, I'm basically expecting him to stay around

George Hill is a very interesting, solid two-way guard prospect

Dragic is Dragic....

Overall, D grade from me... could of and should of done better

Time to do well in FA and trades

I really doubt that any of our draft picks is gonna even gonna make the team this year. ESPN is saying that the Spurs sent a mass email to every team in the league for their 26th pick. Plus, with the way Pop gets mad about a turnover, you can bet that neither PG is gonna get significant minutes this season even if they manage to stick around.

The Spurs really needed to draft a big men. I was definitely hoping they took DeAndre Jordan. He was falling thru the draft and you would think a guy in that situation will be motivated to prove everyone wrong. Plus, he's ultra athletic and has a knack for shotblocking/rebounding. Even if he's a project, he would've made a better project than Splitter or Mahinmi.

The only way tonight will be redeemed is if that 09 pick is a first rounder... and we all know it isn't.

Yeah the 09 is a 2nd rounder.

Well, both teams screwed up the draft.

Hugs?
