Misc Spurs Future Legendary Duo

[OK Computer]

MJ & Pippen…
Magic & Kareem…
Shaq & Kobe…
LeBron & Wade…

For the Spurs, the two household names will be…?

Does it have to be just duo?? Wemby and Castle. But I’d rather Spurs next Big 3, Wemby, Castle and Harper

 

[spursparker9]

Castle got the highest 2-way potential and the elite explosiveness/athleticism that Harper and Fox can't match. Once he mastered the mid-range and bring his 3p % to above league above, his ceiling is definitely higher than Fox or Harper.

I believe Castle can reach that level. He just got that dog in him from his demeanor

For every trio, the third guy always has less of a spotlight than the first two: Rodman, Manu, Bosh, etc. This is an exercise to see who everyone thinks will share the spotlight with Wemby.

 

[Paramore]

Do not underestimate Harper

He has the intelligence, craftiness and calm demeanor of Manu

 

[Quentin_Compson]

It could have been Branham and Wesley, but alas, it wasn't meant to be.

 

[RC_Drunkford]

Castle is Wemby's Pippen. But with Harper they will hopefully be like our big 3 of Tim, Tony and Manu.

 

[spurraider21]

think we should start classic "Church of Harper" and "Church of Castle" threads

 

[BSfromTX]

It will be a trio. Wemby, Castle, Harper. Harper adds a finesse that compliments Castle's athleticism/power. Harper reminds me a lot of Manu in the pick and roll. He just sees the game so well. I was glad to see him get some solid minutes. Hopefully when Fox returns, it doesn't take minutes away from Harper and Castle.

 

[Neuromancer]

How can it not be Fox, at least for the immediate future? Dudes becoming underrated

 

[O_V]

Isn't this how we got Spurs fans running down our own players because Tony vs Manu got so personal? Don't give a shit. The Spurs look locked in and ready to play together. Victor's enthusiasm is contagious. And DEFENSE IS BACK ON THE MENU, BOYS!

I agree that Fox is getting overlooked here. It the short term I think it’ll be him

I think Castle will outshine even Fox in the short term

 

[pope]

Yeah honestly I hope so. If that happens I ain’t complaining

 

[scott]

Big 4 for the next few years, tbh.

Chemistry gonna be through the roof

I think probably Wemby and Harper, with Castle being possibly part of the trio. Like I said elsewhere, I don't think all 4 of Wemby, Fox, Harper, Castle will be in the team long term (4+ years) and surely Wemby won't the the odd man out, so that leaves one of Fox/Harper/Castle as possible trade chip. If I had to guess, it'll be Fox in 2/3 years.

Ariel is not beating the Castle hater allegations @RC_Drunkford

Messing with you Ariel

Fox is not getting overlooked, its just reasonable to question how long he will be here. Obviously he's more proven than the Castle and Harper, but at his price tag its hard to see him being here that long... I realize trading him now would be a problem and hurt our ability to attract future stars, but I'm sure with each coming year, that will fade. For now you could say the big 4 tho.

My thought is three years. That will give our guards a chance to develop, and only eat two years of his five year extension, leaving three years of contractual control for his new team.

It would be a problem to trade him too quickly, but three years should be fine, as long as MATFO works with Klutch to find him a soft landing.

 

[Ice009]

Is Fox's contract 5 seasons or 4? I thought it was 4. How many years is he contracted for including this one?

I was a year off, after checking. He’s under contract for this year, his extension kicks in next summer, and he’s a FA in 2030. That means you really want to trade him in 2028. If you wait until 2029, Harper’s extension kicks in, teams know you want to get off his deal, and he’d be an ending contract, all factors that would depress his value.

 

[Ice009]

Darn, I thought it started this season. That really complicates things.

 

[brazil]

short term Victor+Fox
Mid term Victor+Harper

I believe Harper ceiling is higher than Castle tbh...

It will be like Tim (Victor) + TP (Harper) and Manu (Castle) as support cast....

 

[spursparker9]

Is it too much to ask for big 5?

Wemby, Carter, Castle, Harper, Fox.

We really could use a elite 3 & D wing. Let's hope CB can develop into that
