Why would they if there are trade talks happening?

Also, do you think the NBA is going to speed through it and skip over commercials and sponsors’ monies?

I think this draft hurts because the top 3 picks are going to teams that really don't need top 3 talent as bad as some other teams.

ESPN doesn’t have any college basketball ppl anymore that actually watched these kid play that can actually give some insight? Where’s Jay Bilas?

I've said it a bunch of times: he is easily the 2nd best prospect in the draft and it isn't close. Spurs should take BPA period. Plus I see no downside in having multiple big combo guard playmakers


Yeah, anyone questioning why the Spurs took Harper are crazy. Take BPA and move on.

Let Harper learn a couple years under Fox, when Fox needs an extension, you can give that or let him walk or trade him.

Sixers would be dumb to trade #3, take Edgecome and move on. Figure out what to do with Maxey, Edgecome and McCain later

Castle was my favorite pick in the last draft and now you guys got Harper.

I swear to god you Spurs fans are the luckiest SOBs. Three drafts in a row now.
