Guess that confirms no rebrand lol

God damn the NBA is cheap, not even stitched

Playing with a stitched jersey is not fun. Press on is much more comfortable

He said close to it.
Imo, when healthy, he's close to it

When he's healthy, his impact markers look much more like peak FVV than a real franchise player. He's not a franchise player. He's a good player. There's a big difference between the two. And he's never healthy anyway, so that is somewhat moot.

Players will end up being unhappy if they think they deserve mins....I mean yeah injuries do happen but for winning purposes as well it would be wise to move a few of these guys for 1 solid winning player upgrade....Maybe RJ + 1 or 2 guys on the bench for a legit upgrade either in the starting lineup or another player who will play 25 mins off the bench....RJ/Walter/Dick/Ochai logjam is a problem....

I think they stick with the young depth and really evaluate the season with everyone healthy. The only guy I see them moving is RJ, maybe for a swap for another player. But Dick, JKW, Mogbo, Battle, Ochai, CMB, Shead is a fun bench. Maybe they can take that leap of being bench mob 2.0 and win their minutes.

Yeah i like the players on the team...Thing is you just named 7 players as a "Bench" ...NBA rotations are usually 8 deep maybe 9 if you really stretch it out....Without injuries alot of these guys mins will be cut during the season....Thats why in my mind if you can trade RJ + One or two of the young guys you bring in a Playoff proven player who can help us win....Now your rotation starts to look more playoff ready....Otherwise you are just wasting away these guys on the end of the bench without any real gain....Come playoff time the rotation gets even smaller...

I think we aren't there yet to securely say this is the rotation. They are still finding their way. Let's see who comes out on top for minutes - internal competition is good at this stage. Then from there we can make some pivots.

We’ve been out of the playoff for years but haven’t managed to get any franchise level player or close to it. It’s been a pretty bad run.

lol is it supposed to be easy to get one?

If I told you in 2022 that we’d miss the playoffs 3 years in a row and all we had to show for it was the 9th and 13th pick would you say things must have went well?

[YogurtProducer]

Gotta think a trade involving multiple players is coming this offseason....How will Darko find mins for everyone on the team...

Quickley
Barrett
Ingram
Barnes
Yak

Dick
Walter
Ochai
CMB
Mogbo
Shead

Battle

I mean 11 player rotation is not ideal....Some of these guys will lose out on alot of mins this year....I think a move to turn some of these guys into 1 upgraded player needs to happen....

Injuries are bound to happen. I can understand a consolidation trade but it's not necessary.

Our entire bench is rookie scale players including a UDFA, and 3 2nd rounders. They really don't have a leg to stand on.

In 2018 Norman Powell was our 11th man. Sometimes its good to have competition as it raises everyone up and ensures everyone knows if they slack off their is a replacement there.

We don't need to trade for the sake of it to satisfy egos we don't know even exist.

Well that would be ignoring everything else we got so yeah, I would be.

Thankfully, we got much more than 2 players.

[OakleyDokely]

from pods im listening to, OKC was all over CMB and would have been their pick at 15, took their next guy in Sorber. High stock guys. CMB more versatility which is why he ranked higher.

OKC and TOR are always after the same guys.

Gilgeous-Alexander
Williams
Dort
Murray-Boyles
Holmgren

Man, that defence, gotdang

ya, CMB would be perfect next Chet.

I could see Mogbo and Battle not in the playoff rotation, though great young depth in case of injury.

Pretty much just need a 2 for 1 trade. Agbaji and #39 for #34 to draft Fleming or Markovic.

I think they went towards press ons because it was more environmentally friendly.

You objectively think the last 3 years have gone well for us?

Is that all we got though? Seems like we got more out of it than that.

Or Agbaji for #31 (then draft Flemming) and take Markovic with #39.

But you know, we'll probably just wind up with Broome or Sion James. Hell, might even just grab a basic big like Goldin (because all of the other good bigs will be gone).

Spurs GM: Brian Wright: Positions in this day and age don't matter as much

the full quote: "positions in this day and age don't matter as much. We just saw a playoffs where the team that won had a 6'5 guy guarding a center"

and i completely agree - now that the shock is out the system, lets celebrate Colin Murray Boyles and embrace him and the Front office.

Trading Ochai to go from pick 39 to 34 is wild
