I love Harper's theoretical ceiling, but what are the odds of that outcome is all I mean when I say kind of low. Luckily there are lots of outcomes in between his floor and ceiling that are still an all star player. Maxey is 25 and all NBA level right now, no hoping he hits his potential, its...

That's an easy fix. Two words: Eric Collins.

Last season was a down year for him despite the counting stats looking good, his efficiency regressed slightly and he seemed to chuck a bit. I didn't really make the connection that he was banged up and playing through nagging injuries, he looks healthy and has his pop back in his step again.

Also wanted to mention, listened to Dunc'd On most recent podcast today, Nate Duncan talked about the Spurs/Pels and Spurs/Nets games and heaped praise on Harper. Mentioned that he is clearly a natural at being lead ball handler and if his shot comes around, look out. Nate Duncan is a known...

I'd love more of Harper's minutes to be with Wemby, but even when paired with Kornet it looked really good. Biyombo is the kryptonite to our lineups right now, they need to find or trade for a different body for that spot. 3rd bigs will get more minutes than we'd expect even with relatively...

That comparison would need it to be against Fox/Harper to be compelling right now. Odds are kind of low that either Harper or Castle reach where Maxey is right now is all i'm saying.

Disclaimer than I am not a Sochan believer overall, but I think Sochan would be nice to have some stints on Shai. With players like Shai you need multiple guys who can give him different looks/physicality. Don't let him get comfortable with the same match up repeatedly. Either don't foul at all...

Isn't FBC going to be like 30 years old when a potential new arena would be finished? Isn't that the expected lifespan of an arena for use by an NBA team these days not counting arenas with historical significance ie MSG?

Sochan better be sucking up to our on ball creators, only buckets he can really get will be spoon fed from them.

Castle as a lead ball handler has been extremely concerning but he is on year 2 of a relatively cheaper contract. Probably better to ride it out and move him into his more appropriate role of PoA defender/secondary creator to Fox and Harper once Fox returns.

Wemby don’t really fuck with Vegas, he said before summer league 2023 he didn’t like it and it’s too dystopian. Doubt he’d want to live there 10 months out of the year.

He’s absolutely worse, Zollins had no presence and would just disappear. Bismack actively tanks offensive possessions because he doesn’t understand how not to do a moving screen and he has broom sticks for hands so can’t catch a ball/rebound.

Biyombooooooooooo

Devin now @ +79 when on the court for the Spurs overall in 4 games. Double digit positive +/- in every game so far. Flawed stat to be sure, but historically this stat has hated him. I've been plenty critical of Devin leading up to this season, just want to check myself and recognize what he has...

Ahh gotcha, i'm assuming he was a 2nd row assistant then? Is he 2nd row for OKC as well? Worked out well for him, giving him a team full of big time shooters almost isn't fair.
