Castle's a dawg tbh. Pretty damn pleased with the start of his sophomore season so far.

Yeah Castle has shown his grit throughout and cleaned up some of his weaknesses a bit only a few games in -- the turnovers and free throws are looking better. I said recently he's not a PG but at times even tonight in the loss I was thinking he's the perfect guy to be handling the ball; the contrast between him and Dylan was feeling like something really special, power vs craftiness. With Fox it can be the same. His defense stood out to me as well, those three fouls were some bull shit I must say.

My most controversial take going back to Spurstalk days: Castle has more dog in him than Wembanyama..He doesn't get easily rattled..Steph is just less emotive and trash-talky than Wemby and more of a silent killer in the mold of TD and Kawhi.. And i really hate that for Wemby.

I like that he didn’t back down from Booker. Had his teammates been there and not played like dogshit, Booker would have looked more stupid chirping back.

Told you guys last week when he was getting trashed for turnovers. Steph just needed a bit of time at the PG position to adjust. He doesn't back down. He shows it time and time again (especially in games where the Spurs are down), he's one of the players that never quits no matter what. Probably the toughest player on the team mentally.

Castle is obviously looking great, but to me he's not a point guard, at least not right now.
When Harper came in the offense instantly started flowing better, he looks way more natural with the ball.
They'll complement each other well a few years down the road, they're different players.

Kind of how Williams handles the ball and averages 5 assists, but he's not a point guard.
We had a similar situation with Demar.

I agree that he's not a PG, I was just saying he needed time at the spot (if he's going to be told to play it) and he'll look better which is what has steadily happened IMO. People trashed him and his turnovers to start the season.

I knew he would get better at it the longer he plays PG, but yeah, probably not his ideal spot. I just wish Dylan didn't get hurt. I really hope Dylan's injury isn't serious.

He’s learning that he’s pretty good at making those midrange pullups… watch out NBA.

Yes, great point. It's a shot I've been wanting him to incorporate. I forgot to comment on it due to all the other stuff that happened in the game . Thanks for pointing it out.

That first possession last night…I can’t get over it. A lot of dumb plays happen because of the fog of war. They can’t be perfect and their adrenaline and all the other things.

But you haven’t played in 2 days and feel awesome. You’re ready to keep things moving. And when you see a 7’6 guy who you’ve spent some time with by now, you don’t throw an open lob but instead rocket a pass at his ass cheek?!?

What in God’s name can explain that. I’m serious…how can that one play happen from castle? Wasn’t pressured. Or tired. Nothing weird happened. He just immediately forgot his surroundings after tip off and I’m now wondering what we have here tbh.

He just threw a regular pick & roll bounce pass a tad too late. I agree that he probably should‘ve lobbed it, but that‘s not a big issue.

Precisely .....from Chris Paul tutelage?

Absolutely unforgivable. Their job is to make wemby look good, and the only plays they can ever mess up is not making wemby look his best.
