Well, as I've come to look at it, even 1 or 2 or 3 more wins in those seasons could have meant no Vic, Stephon or D-Harp, so I'm cool with all the misses back then. From this point on, though, I want the Spurs to be scouting their asses off (hire some high level scouts if they don't already have them, or if they do have good ones, hire a couple more) and try to minimize misses going forward. Especially 2nd round picks, they need to really look seriously at not wasting second round picks.An absolute steal at 20th overall pick. A lot of you didn’t want Jalen Johnson for his “character” and Spurs drafted Primo
I’d rather bet pick #30 if it meant not giving OKC two Top 10 picks
Agree. We could’ve drafted Wemby’s friend at SRP as a project big. The Spurs are really thin at backup C as insurance, no disrespect to Biyombo
Wemby’s friend made it clear that 3rd center wasn’t what he wanted. Second round picks do that, now.
bruh everybody knows the Spurs have some of the best scouts in the game
So he told teams he was a starter and wouldnt execpt anything else.Doubt that.
Don’t stress about it too much man. We’re talking about jumping to the 14-18 range, from low to mid 20s.
You do understand there is a level between starter, and third string, right? Third string almost never plays. It’s not a good roster spot for development.
I've seen some people here that have questioned the Spurs' current scouts due to the picks they've made in the second round the past few years. That's why I bought that up.
As soon as we can get all of these stupid swaps out of the way we can go back to knocking picks 28-30 out of the park like the good old days
Boozer
Dude is averaging almost 10 pts, 5 rebs, 35% 3pt and almost a block a game for 42nd pick. Spurs could use that
Had the same thought pass through my mind last week. Honestly, I just hope they do better with the scouting wherever we pick. The years before Wemby had more misses than hits. Now, we just look at it as if we don't get Vic had we made better picks.
He did not want to be a third stringer.
if they trade trae he will be...
... gone with the wind
that Dejounte trade was highway robbery 
It is one of those weird things where SA got a good deal for DJM, and maybe it would have been highway robbery if not for the fact that ATL had another sucker waiting in the wings that they could repeatedly exploit.It feels so fucking good and privileged that the Spurs have the luxury of a seemingly playoff-bound season of winning, while also having the probability of their draft pick improving several spots because of this swap...
It's the definition of gravy tbh. I cared about ATL much more last season but haven't found myself following their record at all this year.
And to think we still have one more of their picks coming in next season
its much easier to get it right picking at 1, 4, and 2 than 19, 11, 12, 9, or in the 20s
