Yeah, I know, the salary isn't workable anymore. Definitely not doable anymore. If the Spurs were going to go for him, it would have to have been done last off-season. Wouldn't have had Fox or Harper, though, as Spurs probably don't trade for De'Aaron and most likely don't get the number 2 pick...

How are the Heat playing? Are they playing a high pace game? Who's playing well for them. Sounds like it will be a really good test. Spurs are going to have to be locked in.

Yep. Complete screwup on my part as I didn't watch much NBA when they first came in. I remember it now after you've said it. Any idea if anyone from those three is a clear cut number 1, or is it too early to say?

Thanks for checking me. No idea wtf I was thinking that he's still on a rookie deal. I guess not watching much basketball between 2019 and 2022 made me forget who came in when. Who are projected to be the top 3-4 picks in next year's draft? Boozer, Peterson, Dybansta? Am I missing anyone?

I really have no idea. I think you just gotta let it play out and see what happens when Fox comes back.

Great post to put things into perspective. We're seeing it now with Cooper Flagg. He was supposed to be the runaway rookie of the year, but playing him out of position is really making him not look too good. He's A LOT better than he's shown so far. I'm one of the biggest Castle fans around...

That's very true. He goes off book a bit when Victor's not on the court. That is much, much better compared to what he used to do.

I've really come around on Lauri's fit. I didn't want him last season when a lot of people were in on him, but right now, I'd love him as I feel he'd be a perfect fit. Unfortunately, I like the price to acquire him a lot less than I did last off-season.

If KP was making 15-20M a year, I'd take the chance, but at 30M, Spurs are going to have to give up players that they could have used on the court. If KP misses games and can't play, I'd still rather those players to be on the court than trading them away and then not having KP available to play...

I don't look at a lot of pictures or anything to know how often he wears them, but I've noticed he wears glasses sometimes, so I'm wondering how well he sees on the court and if that has any impact on his shooting.

So what is the scenario with Trae? If he doesn't get the extension he wants, will Atlanta be forced to trade him? When does his rookie contract end?

Wow. Pretty cool season if he did. Sounds like he was a pretty solid player before all his injuries.

This is what I mentioned the a couple of days ago. I think a great goal is holding teams to 25-27 points a quarter. Seems that the Spurs are doing that so far. Mostly due to Victor, though, and some Kornet too. I don't understand why Dylan isn't bringing the ball up the court anytime he's on...

Has anyone ever won 6th man and rookie of the year? Who won rookie of the year the year Ben Gordon's year?

Man, I'm starting to really think that keeping Bismack was a bad move. They should have looked to upgrade his spot. He looks beyond washed.
