I'm not a fan of Giddey. Him and Tre Jones in the SL bring zero defense.

Absolutely no desire to bring Giddey in. Bro lost his starting job mid-series against the Mavs. I legit have no idea what he brings to the table other than pedo allegations.

:russ: This is kinda wild. The lasting image I have of the two of them is Tim pushing RJ off the court sticky pad, lookin annoyed as hell.

This could be v dope.

Just plz no more undersized wings that cant play defense
Dalton Knecht looks like more of an NBA-ready player than Nikola Topic.

On Instagram, I saw a clip of somebody saying this year's NBA draft is devoid of superstar talent, and filled with role players.
That's disappointing but you don't get to play 5 Wembanyamas on the floor. The Spurs have to find the best supporting cast that they can.

Vassell can shoot among the starters. But who can shoot off the bench?
There's really nobody besides Keldon.

Maybe the idea is that somebody like Knecht would replace Cedi Osman? I don't know. I'm just guessing.
Is using the 8th pick on a bench guy a good idea? Maybe not. :huhldup:

We get an upgrade at SF and move Champagnie to the bench and that gives more shooting in the second unit
